"I 'd like to start by saying that this restaurant should hands-down be the #1 contemporary American cuisine in St Louis and easily one of the top 20 or better restaurants in St Louis. My wife and I went here for a date night dinner and were completely impressed by everything from the service, to the wine selection, to the food, and ambiance. The restaurant itself has clearly attracted the attention of St Louis ' elite upper class as the restaurant clientele were so exuberant that we honestly felt a little out of place there. We enjoyed a delicious burette appetizer and I had the gumbo; which is a rotating option based on the availability of ingredients and chef 's inspiration. The gumbo wa probably the best gumbo I 've eaten outside of Louisiana. A lot of menu items had the chef 's Louisiana roots; gumbo, spices, and the Wedge Salad even came with craw fish on it (rather unique! . There were a number of chef 's special items and the menu was just large enough to provide options for everyone, while not being too bloated that it was hard to make a choice. The execution on the kitchen staff 's part was a perfect 10 out of 10. Our waiter was attentive, although clearly busy. We did not feel he was overbearing, but when the restaurant was full, it was evident that he was very engrossed in the number of tables he had. The only improvement area that I 'd offer/advise of future guests is that it was very evident that the people with the deepest pockets were given PLENTY of attention. My wife and I were well dressed and respectful, but the maitre 'D and front of the house staff spent most of their time ensuring that a select number of tables were enjoying their evening the most. A simple How 's everything with your meal from the front of the house staff is where the team could focus. Overall, we definitely will be back and would recommend this restaurant to anyone. The price point is clearly well represented on TripAdvisor at the level. For the two of us, we spent 400 (including tip and ordered a lower-tier bottle of wine. An adult family of four or two couples on a date night could easily spend close to 1,000 here (including alcohol and tip ."

"We hired Posh to cater our off-site wedding this past October. I 'll begin with the disappointment we faced with the menu sampling, done on site at their restaurant in Scranton. I was originally told by Josh that we would be able to have a total of six people for the tasting, with the possibility of adding extra people at an additional cost. I confirmed with him over email that we would have eight total, and made the reservation for us to come in and try our menu items. The tasting comes along, and I could not believe how rude Josh was to me. Other members of my party arrived before me, and when I walked in before even INTRODUCING himself to me, he informed me that I had never told him to expect eight people and it would be impossible to do the tasting for that amount of people. I pulled up the email chain right there and showed him where I had expressed this information to him. Without saying anything, he walked away. We were all fed, so I assume it wasn 't actually impossible. Nevertheless, he never came out to see what we thought about the food and never followed up by email. I had to reach out with changes. I wish now that we had found another local caterer and hadn 't ignored these warning signs. But, we had used Posh for an on-site event before and they had done a fine job. We thought our wedding would be the same. So, let 's talk about the wedding reception. Josh had told us he would be out to the wedding site the day before to set up the catering tent and walk through specifics. This never happened. He didn 't show up until right before the start of the event with very little communication leading up to his arrival. We had a number of designated outlets that he requested for food warmers, and yet he used zero of these. The food was cold and the portions were miniscule. The short rib entrée at the sweetheart table was served without the sauce. Just a few small sliced ! pieces of meat that were not tender enough to be called five house braised short ribs. I would have sent them back if we had been simply out for dinner, but the fact of the matter is that it took so incredibly long for the courses to be served to everyone and after well over 90 minutes I didn 't want to spend any more of my wedding sitting at a table waiting for mediocre food. In hindsight, I wish I had taken photos of what we were served. While our table was supposed to be served first, I had to ASK to be served both the pasta and salad course. We were told we had to be seated at our table in order to be served, and yet even with us sitting and not visiting with guests, I had to get up and ask a server to bring us a salad, as they had almost completely finished bringing salads to the rest of the tables. Unfortunately, since the service timeline was not observed and dinner took so long to finally make it to our table, we were unable to do the table rounds we had planned to do before the cake cutting. We missed out on being able to speak to all our guests because we were waiting for cold short ribs without the sauce. Not to write a diatribe, but if you are considering having them cater an off-site wedding, it is helpful to share what exactly you might miss out on. In a review my mother left elsewhere, Josh responded that many guests stopped by his tent to complement the food. Out of all the vendors who were complemented by our guests to us, the caterer was NOT one of them. I can only assume that if this were true, our guests were doing this out of kindness and not because they were impressed by the quality of the service or the food."
