Not an extensive menu but a decent selection of food. The seating area is really nice, and there is a large outdoor patio seating area as well. This makes a good place to catch your breath and grab a bite when visiting the garden. One complaint: unlike at many museums, membership get you no discount here.

Lovely space to have lunch and get a break from the heat walking the gardens. The food was very good & look forward to another visit to see more of the gardens. Unfortunately our order was somehow overlooked and took over 45 minutes to get it. After watching several tables get their orders after they ordered after us had to ask 3 different servers & finally went back to the order area to find out our order was never filled. It appears from the reviews this has been an issue for other customers. I really hope the management can get a handle on this since the food is very good and such a beautiful space to enjoy a meal.

The place was clean and promoted eating healthy foods. I did have an impossible burger, though, and it was good.

After we had checked out several of the collections of Orchids, flowers, and other types of plants at the Missouri Botanical Garden, MJ, our friend from work, and I had brunch at this restaurant on the garden grounds. The food was quite good. I had classic Belgian Waffles and a side of lemon pepper chicken chunks. MJ and Morgan had the same kind of waffles but with ham cooked on it. We all agreed that it was a good meal.

The food was very good, but portion sizes and seasoning were inconsistent over plates. Three (3) of us ordered the same dish. One had large pieces of chicken, one had almost no chicken. Two were spicy, one was not. One had a red sauce, two did not.

We arrived on the evening for dinner before a sunset walk through the gardens. Unfortunately, the restaurant was sold out of several options. Then we waited an hour to find out that one of the dishes we ordered was sold out. I found this out when I approached the manager on duty. When the food arrived, it was cold, and the portion was small. We missed our sunset walk through the gardens and only only saw half of the gardens. Would not recommend for dinner.

The selection of food that was on the menu had a variety of different things but still had something for everyone I feel. The dining area and surroundings was very clean and very aesthetic. And the staff there were amazing.

We love the Botanical Gardens. The restaurant was reasonable and food good enough. Nice that they accommodate visitors without charging a fortune. They got our order wrong and immediately corrected it.

For a visitor center eating place, this restaurant rocks! It’s at Missouri Botanic Garden; the sandwiches we got were wonderful and no real price gouging in evidence. Would definitely eat there again.
