Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

The service was fine for a cafeteria seat yourself restaurant. We went there after seeing the Ansel Kiefer, exhibit at the St. Louis Art Museum. I ordered the pizza and salad combo. The Queen's Margherita half flatbread and cypress salad with a Balsimic vinegerette dressing. Overall the food was delicious but I wish the tomatoes on the flatbread were quartered before being placed on the pizza. The whole slice comes off when you bite into the pizza and all you taste is tomato and the topping comes with it. Basically you are eating all the topping with each section. Not able to enjoy all the flavors on the pizza. The salad was good but with a little too much cucumber pieces. I would recommend but know there are many choices to choose from

Oh, this place is fire 🔥🔥 Tried this spot for the first time since I'm aiming for healthier food in Kirkwood. This is it. Their pizzas are light, airy, and fresh. Their salads are equally as good! The Jackie Chan sticks are to die for! Recommended! We will definitely be back. The prices are very reasonable too! You can't go wrong with the salad and half a pizza. Ugh, I can't recommend this place enough. The interior is also very clean, well kept, and pretty! Staff is friendly too!

I went to Crush Red in Kirkwood with high expectations based on its reputation for fresh, healthy ingredients and a casual dining experience. Unfortunately, my visit did not meet these expectations. While the menu promises a variety of creative salads, artisanal pizzas, and healthy wraps, the overall experience was disappointing. The staff, particularly the person at the cash register, was notably unhelpful and rude, which detracted significantly from the visit. There was also a lack of clear communication about the menu and service. Despite the inviting concept and potential for a great meal, the poor service overshadowed the positives. I hope this feedback helps the restaurant address these issues and improve the customer experience.
