    In St. Louis and needed to entertain a fairly large group. Found this restaurant on yelp and took a leap of faith. They knocked it out of the park. Don’t let location fool you. It was on ground floor of an executive high rise apartment building. They did a great job. Food was amazing.

    Excellent food. Lamb chops were perfectly cooked and many of them. Special steak was perfectly cooked with a perfect cream sauce. Carpaccio was a little heavy with mayo sauce. Waitress was good and knowledgeable, but she hung over us a bit. We enjoyed the evening, and we will be back.

    The service stood out as terrific. Our server had just the right tone, with humor, knowledge of the dishes and friendly banter. Dominic’s serving people were also well coordinated. DIfferent people brought different items to the table in time, smoothly and without any missteps. We also really appreciated Dominic’s wine list, which had several nice choices of half-bottles. Just what we wanted. We continue to recommend Dominic’s to our friends.

    inattentive/rude waiter- kept disappearing after offering suggestions, asked if we wanted drinks but did not give a wine/beer list fancy ambiance but food did not match, menu was overpriced and did not have any details on seasonings, sauces, sides, allergy info etc. I got the salmon with capers and mixed vegetables. Salmon was good but overpriced. Veggies were ok but it included some weird inedible stick type potatoes

    We were at the private table up front divided from the main room. The restaurant was busy and our waiter wasn't all that attentive although he was super efficient & pleasant. The lamb chops were divine! They were perfectly prepared. Same goes for the halibut special--perfectly prepared. Everyone liked their meals, but service was not up to par,

    The food was amazing and hot. Unfortunately it took over an hour to get our food. Salad and soup was out promptly but the waiter wasn’t engaging as he knew our food was taking way too long. Only after flagging him down did he say “oh, it will be out soon”. 10 minutes later it arrived. At no time was there an apology from him or the manager. This was not our first time there and were all shocked at the lack of communication. And no apology at all. But the food was excellent.

    They did not have our reservation from openable. Not sure if it was your app or their employees but we were told sorry we don’t have your reservation. When I told them I made a reservation through opentable, she didn’t know what opentable was! Then she told me it would be at least an hour wait!

    We dined with two other couples last weekend. We had a terrific waitress who did an amazing since she had a huge section all by herself. I had the chicken creme which was delicious as was my husbands veal. My friend had the trout which looked dry but she said was fine. We love the ambiance in this place (although the lights could have been turned up a notch). I'm sure they are probably suffering like most restaurants finding enough employees because their menu had really shrunk from the last time we were there. Hopefully, things will get back to normal soon because we really enjoy coming here!
