Weber Grill Restaurant is among the hottest spots in town right now—literally.
Weber Grill Restaurant
The area’s only restaurant to use industrial-size Weber kettles to cook a protein-heavy menu also has two large patios to make alfresco dining a breeze. webergrillrestaurant.com.
Joey B’s–Manchester
The only thing more appealing than the vibe at the newest Joey B’s (the fourth location) is the slick design of the 120-seat patio, a welcome addition to the neighborhood. joeybsmanchester.com.
Shift, Test Kitchen & Take Out
A handful of menu items change frequently at this incubator for Dave Bailey’s other restaurants. Counter service is the quickest in town; customers are typically in and out within five minutes. shifttestkitchen.com.
Farmtruk
Just as farm-to-table season hits prime time in the Midwest, Farmtruk rolls out fresh local offerings. Don’t miss the chicken potpie on a stick. farmtrukstl.com.
Fred & Ricky’s
Even carnivores can appreciate the plant-based options at Fred & Ricky’s. The trademarked Plantasagna, for instance, offers a new take on kale. Grab-and-go stores are in Westport and Creve Coeur, and more locations are on the way. fredricky.com.
