Killer roast beef sandwiches since 1967. The recipe for our famous roast beef sandwich is simple: 100% real top round beef. Slow roasted on-site for three hours. Shaved extra thin. Served medium rare on a lightly toasted buttered bun. And topped with a dash of secret seasoning. It’s the same way we’ve done it for over 50 years. Voted Best Fries by St. Louis Magazine.

    It was after 11 pm. I had a late meeting, and I was ravenous. Despite being low on some food items, they were friendly, clean, professional, and willing to compromise with me without any attitude or escalation. I, too, was polite and understanding that it was the end of the day. So, I didn't get exactly what I wanted, but I got what I needed. A hot meal and a wonderful interaction. I don't remember names, but I believe it was Tuesday, December 16th.

    The food is great, people are friendly. The only negative... it's brisk in the dining room!

    Food is great as always but seems like the portions keep getting smaller and prices keep going up.

    Pre lunch rush visit, restroom very clean, staff helpful, food very good, roast beef is actually roast beef, French dip could use a bit more roast beef but overall good sandwich, a little sprinkle of the special seasoning makes it so good, just don't use too much. fries are some of the best and the rootbeers so good. I'll be back.
