As if it weren't enough to find a place in west county that serves a slinger, the Olive Street Cafe serves four different kinds.
The new seven-days-a-week breakfast-and-lunch spot is in an outbuilding in the Bellerive Center near the corner of Olive and Mason, a space that most recently held a Qdoba Mexican Grill but which has housed several restaurants over the years.
It's a joint effort from Matt Agnew and Tom Sweeney, who originally met in the 1990s at Forest Hills Country Club and later worked together at Meadowbrook Country Club, where Agnew was the executive chef before embarking on this new endeavor. Way back when, Sweeney also was Schlafly beer's first outside rep and helped open The Schlafly Tap Room downtown.
In addition to the four slingers -- steak, with grilled sirloin; country, with maple ham and buttermilk biscuits; Spanish, with corn tortillas and chorizo; and the Olive Street Slinger (the closest to a traditional slinger with hash browns, bacon and chili) -- breakfast entrees include five variations on eggs Benedict, build-your-own omelets and a variety of other choices. It's not exactly diner-priced, however, with most items hovering at or above $10.
Lunches include a fairly long list of salads, sandwiches, and wraps plus five full-meal entrees for about $12.
Agnew and Sweeney are big on "partnerships" with their suppliers, listing them prominently on the restaurant's website. Coffee is from Kaldi's, baked goods are from Breadsmith, meat comes from Middendorf, mushrooms are from Fresh Mushroom Farm and ice cream is from Serendipity. And although Olive Street Diner is only open until 2:30, there's a variety of wine and beer available.
