"I tried this place maybe 7 years ago and didn’t care for the experience, but now I’d go back anytime someone suggests it, lol. The food and service was great! The bartender was quick, friendly and courteous. This gyro was so good!! Definitely was worth the second try 🙌🏽"

"My wife & I remain on the 5-Star bandwagon for Hendel's.  We were the only diners on their beautiful patio in early afternoon today, and we luckily beat the thunderstorms.  Very good & friendly service courtesy of Lila B., ditto for the young lady who served our Arancini appetizer & our tasty salmon dishes (salad & BLT sandwich).  Another great outing at our favorite St. Louis area restaurant."

"Hendels is the place we fell in love, found out we were having a boy, and our go-to date spot for a sure-thing good meal and great service. Ratings (regular/ Gluten free) Food: (4/4) -this is a best-for-the-price-point class place. Food is always good. Every item on the menu is pleasant, well prepared, and as described. Service: (4/5) -they can make most things GF. Which is awesome. Atmosphere: The vibe is great. It's a hustle and bustle kind of place where the staff is SO hospitable and the fellow diners are kind also. Maybe a little TOO nice (since the volume is on the upper range of talkable). Drinks: Seasonal cocktails are good but nothing I really write home about. HOWEVER, I've found if I just order a classic cocktail (negroni, old fashioned, Martini, etc), it is always fantastic."

"This place is worth the fight for a parking spot. I had the vegan burger for the first time and it won’t be my last. It was the best vegan burger I’ve had in the St. Louis area. It was perfectly seasoned and cooked and appeared to be a handmade patty. The fries were also excellent - great crispy outsides and fluffy on the inside. Make the trip. It is worth it!"

"Nice little hidden gem of a place. The outside tree covered, paved patio seating area is so relaxing, peaceful and beautifully landscaped. Inside the cafe is charming and delightful. We went for lunch and dined on the patio, it was already busy by noon. They offer reservations and I recommend you call ahead to get seated at the time you'd prefer. I had the fish tacos which I do not recommend, it was bland and the fish tasted like the grill, I will try something else next time. Others in our party said the salmon salad, burgers and chicken salad were cooked perfectly and tasted great. Server was very good, friendly and efficient. There is very limited parking throughout the neighborhood and it might be challenging to find a spot. Even though I didn't enjoy my meal, I'm definitely willing to try this nice little secret hidden in Florissant again."
