A Hidden Gem in St. Louis You Shouldn’t Miss
This review is for the people of St. Louis. and I have to say, I’m genuinely jealous that you have such an incredible restaurant in your city.
Last night, I had the pleasure of experiencing one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. I travel often and love discovering new places, and thanks to some wonderful people I was working with, I was invited here. Their recommendation ended up being the highlight of my short trip.
The restaurant sits quietly on a corner, a beautiful historic brick building with glowing lights and large front windows. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and told we could sit wherever we liked. Jay came over with a big smile, brought water, and got our appetizer order started right away. First impressions matter, and they absolutely nailed it.
We started with the shrimp and corn chowder, along with mussels in broth. The chowder was thick, hearty, and creamy, with a flavorful yellow curry base perfectly balanced by black pepper. The corn was fresh and sweet, the shrimp tender, and the diced skin-on potatoes added a nice texture contrast.
Then came the mussels,and this dish is what inspired me to write this review. A generous portion of large, fresh mussels arrived in clean, beautiful shells. The mussels themselves were tender and light, but the real star was the broth. A rich, reddish, aromatic broth bursting with depth. I could taste coriander, cumin, pepper, tomato, black pepper, and a hint of red chili flakes. The balance of flavors was extraordinary The very definition of umami. It’s the kind of dish that makes you want to plan another trip to St. Louis just to have it again.
For my main course, I ordered the seafood gumbo, featuring shrimp, shell-on crawfish, and catfish in a deep, rich roux. It had the perfect amount of spice (courtesy of what I suspect is a secret chili blend). The texture was thick and buttery without being heavy, and paired with white rice, it struck a perfect balance. I’ve had some unforgettable gumbo in New Orleans, and the fact that I’m even considering this one as the best gumbo I’ve had says a lot.
I also had the chance to sample dishes my hosts ordered: a blackened catfish that was beautifully seared as requested crisp on the outside, moist and tender inside. a curry-encrusted grouper, served with a lighter version of the yellow curry from the chowder. The fish was thick, flaky, and perfectly cooked.
Just when I thought the evening couldn’t get better, the chef came out to chat at the end of his night, glass of wine in hand. Twenty minutes later, I realized that while the food was phenomenal, the real magic here lies in the people behind it. You can taste the passion, pride, and love in every dish, and that’s what makes this place truly special.
Thank you for such a warm, genuine experience. To the people of St. Louis, don’t sleep on this hidden gem tucked away in a quiet corner of your city. It’s the kind of restaurant that reminds you why we fall in love with food in the first place.

So today I ate at Sister Cities Cajun restaurant and it did not disappoint at all. My food was really good and so was the customer service. I shared the tasty crab cakes appetizer and my entree was the “Dirty Chicken”. I substituted the chicken for fried catfish. Truly a delicious, spicy, tasty meal. Served hot and fresh just like I love my food to be. I will definitely be back to try more because I have no complaints about my food at all. Give them a try. It is delicious!

Stopped by St. Louis to see the arch and found this small restaurant. Coming all the way from Boston and this was BOMB. Super flavorful and great kick to it. Definitely check out Sister Cities Cajun if you pass by!

We ordered Sister Cities catering for a Mardi Gras themed baby shower and it was delicious!! As requested, the food was delivered cold, the day prior, with easy heating instructions. Even though it was made ahead, each dish was amazing! Creamy chicken andouille pasta, the BEST jambalaya, and wonderful mini crab cakes! Truly delicious, authentic Cajun dishes. Thanks to the super nice staff at Sister Cities. We highly recommend, and look forward to visiting the restaurant.

The food was AMAZING. The staff was kind and patient as we decided on what to order. Angie is especially great! We made sure to make a reservation (even for our small party of 3) to ensure we got a seat. Nothing was overly spicy (right level for the type of cuisine) and our drinks stayed filled.
Ordered: Étouffée, Cajun pasta, Chicken and Sausage gumbo (off menu special), Hurricane Kennedy.

This meal was the best I’ve had in a long time and certainly the best Cajun I’ve had this far north. Based on how good it was, I’d trust anything off this menu and I’m mad we don’t live here and I can’t eat our way thru it.
The smothered catfish was perfect, the etoufee over it was lick the plate good (so glad we got extra ’cause my wife wasn’t getting more than a bite off my plate lol) and the pecan bread pudding was stupid how good it was- we did indeed fight over it as our server/bartender warned.
Speaking of- his cocktail of the day, a basil smash, was beautiful and he’s clearly a man of good taste, turning up Al Green when he came on.
We’ll be back.

I had the shrimp and grits. It was very good. We took a large group on a Sunday evening, arrived 30 minutes prior to closing and very grateful for their hospitality, staying open to serve our food and allowing everyone to finish. We did reserve ahead of time to let them know about the late arrival. Service and food were prompt. Beer selection was decent.

The atmosphere is great. Music in the background. My wife and I were sat quickly. The food was good. Could’ve been a little hotter. Little bit longer of a wait than it could’ve been but nothing crazy. I had the dirty chick. My wife had the smothered catfish. Without a doubt, we would come back again. All in all, I’m really glad we stopped.

So here’s another spot that we found on our journey of trying new places but I was actually excited to try it so pulling up to the location I had VERY high hopes I found them being lowered upon approach now don’t get me wrong I’m a lover of hood food spots your fish and chickens your Mallys but I know what to expect walking into those places people begging for change the person on speakerphone arguing even the person peddling they pharmaceuticals but the outside of this location could definitely use a face-lift but I’m not here for the building I’m here for those hot portions we were seated immediately in chairs that have definitely seen better days but again I’m here for the food not the chairs or the building our waitress was nice and prompt and very kind we ordered the crab cakes and the smoked wings the gumbo and for our meals my lady had the shrimp andouille pasta I had thee smothered catfish the chicken was ok not bad a 6 out of 10 but it was piping hot with a good seasoning on it I personally enjoyed the crab cakes my lady was not the most pleased with them the gumbo was FIRE that was definitely the best thing we had the plating of all these items are TOP NOTCH no lie very pleasing to the eye but the main dishes lacked flavor it wasn’t what I expected that’s not to say it’s not good but it wasn’t to my liking on the flavor profile……
Let me edit this since you want to leave a smart comment I GOT TIME TODAY now I tried to be decent to your lackluster establishment that CLEARLY your CHEF doesn’t understand what CAJUN means but since you want to speak statistics The Chase Plaza has been there for MANY years not a dirty seat in the building and if it is its not visible to the public and a building looking derelict doesn’t make it HISTORIC instead of using that money to get a jukebox you should have gotten a new chef that actually understands that Cajun has flavor never would have had bland food on Bourbon Street which is what you were going for correct but instead I wasted my money with Chef Boyardee in this soup kitchen now you got a 2 you should be grateful but like I said the plating was gorgeous and the gumbo was good you also have more 3 and 4s than you do 5 stars so maybe it might be time to pull the pitcher from the mound but here’s a PRO TIP for you EVERYBODY AIN’T GONNA LIKE YOUR FOOD!!!!!! And if you get your feelings hurt behind someone’s honest views then STOP DEALING WITH THE PUBLIC!!!!!!
