City dining in November with my wife’s college friend. We chose Stone Turtle. some place new to everybody. This little quaint restaurant in Dogtown is small and intimate. It has basic burgers to nice steak dinners. I had the steak entree special 12 oz strip steak and saffron risotto. The steak was cooked to medium as I like it and the risotto was a nice mouthfeel soft melt in your mouth flavorful.. I added a white wine to go with my steak choice A Hess Chardonnay this was easy drinking and slightly fruity . We opted out of the desert menu. A tough decision although the desert menu was tempting. I recommend this restaurant you will not be disappointed with Stone Turtle.

Ate here with friends for brunch, reservations are definitely recommended! I ordered the Bacon Benedict sandwich which was delicious with a perfect english muffin and the fruit felt so fresh as well. Easy serving size for brunch and I wasn’t taking home any leftovers! My friend got the salmon avocado toast which looked amazing. I feel a lot of people have heard of how good Stone Turtle is and you should definitely take the time to check it out!

When you visit or if you live in St. Louis, you must visit Stone Turtle! The food and service was AMAZING! Great atmosphere, great service, and DELICIOUS FOOD! There are options for everyone. I had the Brisket Dip and I give it a chef’s kiss!! The brisket was seasoned and cooked perfectly! I must warn you the sandwich is massive! I shared it with a friend who ordered the Salmon which was juicy & also cooked to perfection (med rare)! Everyone enjoyed the food, desserts, and drinks. (The pics are from their website but the food looked just like the pics! We started eating immediately so I couldn’t take pics.. sorry) 🙂

showed up for lunch on Sunday 2/1/2026 as our first time dining here. The service and atmosphere were great. My friend ordered the egg benedict bacon sandwich, and I ordered the biscuits and gravy with eggs. Our cocktails were great, the egg sandwich was great, but the biscuits and gravy were over the top salty and almost inedible.

Stopped in on a Friday night and didn’t have reservations. Got seated quickly and provided with waters.
Place was very busy and definitely needed more than two servers. We waited a solid 15 minutes to place first drink orders. We also ordered the Truffle Mac & Cheese.
After another long wait (20-ish minutes) the Mac and Cheese arrived, followed shortly by those first drinks. The MnC was good, but sadly the bacon overpowered every other hint of flavor. We couldn’t detect any truffle flavor at all.
We ordered our entrees when the MnC arrived, and then waited over an hour for two dishes: a burger and a Caesar salad. We were told it took so long because they had to cook the steak that was added-on to the salad.
When the food arrived, it looked great. Burger was thick and juicy with a nice brioche bun. Salad looked well dressed and prepared, although the use of spring mix rather than romaine for a Caesar was unusual. The steak that accompanied the salad was absolutely fantastic, although we didn’t receive a steak knife so it was difficult to cut into smaller pieces.
The dressing was delicious and the steak was well seasoned. The burger, on the other hand was so salty, I could feel my blood pressure rising with each bite. The bacon jam wasn’t so much a jam as it was huge chunks of unbelievably salty bacon, and the queso sauce was also ridiculously salty. Making matters worse, they seasoned the burger (which would normally be greatly appreciated), making everything into a huge salt bomb.
We overheard the table next to us say the same things about their burger, so it wasn’t just our fate.
Despite the slow service and the salty burger, we enjoyed the evening. Our server was very friendly but clearly overloaded and as a result, quite absent for most of the night.

We loved almost everything about our experience — except for an unacceptable delay in receiving our dinner. We started with a couple of starters/bar snacks: the portabella croutons and the fried cheese. Both were excellent. My friends and my wife ordered cocktails that were very good and reasonably priced.
We placed our dinner order and waited about 35–40 minutes. After watching several tables that arrived and ordered well after us receive their food, we finally asked about our meals since we had tickets to a show. We arrived a little before 6:00 PM, giving ourselves an hour to eat and enough time to get to our 7:30 show. We were told a mistake had been made by the server and that our food was being worked on at that point.
Our meals finally arrived after roughly 45–50 minutes, leaving us about five minutes to eat. The food itself was very good. My friend didn’t love his fried fish — I think the cornmeal coating just wasn’t to his taste. I loved my salmon, and my wife thought her burger and fries were excellent.
The manager did check in and tried to help, but someone should have noticed how long we were waiting — especially in a restaurant that size. What really disappointed us was that nothing was offered to make up for the delay, the stress, or the rush to finish our meals. Not a drink, not a dessert to go, not even comping the two $6 starters. Just a “sorry, the server made a mistake,” and that was it. A small gesture — even inviting us back for a cocktail after the show or on a future visit — would have gone a long way. But unfortunately, nothing was offered, which didn’t feel very classy on Stone Turtle’s part.
That said, we liked the place enough that we’ll probably give it another try. It’s a fun spot in a great part of St. Louis with a good atmosphere. I still encourage you to check it out — just hope your timing goes more smoothly than ours.

We absolutely love Stone Turtle — it’s one of our favorite go-to spots in town. The food is consistently phenomenal and the drinks are just as fantastic. What really sets it apart, though, is the atmosphere. It’s relaxed and welcoming, never too loud, and the bar area has TVs without sound so they don’t intrude on conversation. The lighting is low but perfectly cozy, and the staff is always warm and friendly.
Stone Turtle strikes the perfect balance of great flavors, great drinks, and a great vibe. Highly recommend!

I stumbled across this restaurant on Google search. I viewed the menu and some of the food items and thought, “this is my type of restaurant.” And to my surprise, it was… the Tiger Roll with the cilantro jam was EVERYTHING‼️ the grapefruit was delicious and the Libations were great as well. The only thing I think needs to be revamped is the chicken and waffles. I get that they may have been going for a Southern Chicken and Waffle feel where the crust looks almost burned but the chicken is Juicy on the inside… but it was definitely not that experience. After sending it back and getting the replaced order it was still not tasty. It was dry and overcooked each time the crust was way too crispy and beef jerky chewy. The waffle needs a little bit more weight to it, it was as if I was eating the air.. it was too lightweight and crispy. Other than that, I will definitely go back.
