Absolutely 5/5 and such a treat in the wentzville area! We came right at 4 when they opened on a weekday and a few people were already lined up! We ordered the sweet corn nuggets, a cheeseburger meal, Philly cheesesteak, chicken fettuccini Alfredo, and a margarita as well as an apple crisp to go. Pros: -the establishment is clean and open concept -staff was very knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient -the food was SO GOOD! No one had a single complaint about all the food we had. There was so much Alfredo sauce I actually took it home and had another meal of pasta the next day! Cons: -although margaritas were said to be flavored well with seasonal options my margarita tasted watered down and I could taste the fruit flavor as well as I wanted -the apple crisp was pretty bland and no real crumble topping. It tasted more like steamed apples than a rich flavor of sugar and cinnamon that we were hoping for, wouldn’t order that again. Overall all of the food we had there was amazing, I’d definitely recommend this spot! Although the hours are not convenient for everyone if you are ever in the area stop in for a treat!

This place is super family friendly. Ample parking on the side of the building. It does look like a house, so be mindful as your approaching. The service was incredible. Super nice. She asked if she could bring our 8 yr old so.e pizza dough to play with to keep him busy. I have never seen that before, but it was really cool. We had drunken fries and pepperoni chips for appetizer. The pepperoni chips were unique, but still just fried pepperoni. Nothing super crazy amd Mayne slightly overpriced. The fries were good. The actual fries were really good too. We had baked egg plant and saccotini for dinner. Huge portions. This is usually to cover the mediocre taste of the food. Not at all the case here. Amazing flavors throughout. We will go back. The menu has a good selection. Biggest downfall...they don't have Corona. I chose the Kona Big Wave, which turned out to be a good choice.

These ladies have done something amazing! Try their take and bake pizzas and a house salad for a super easy family dinner. We go here at least once a month! Pizza is not overly greasy or guilty feeling, and the salad seems very close to their parent's old Stefanina's house salad which I crave regularly. If you are dining in, get there a bit early or later. The establishment is a little small so it fills up fast and they do not take reservations. Usually a spot at the bar though and they are oh so friendly!!
