1st off, William - our server - was top notch! If you are reading this William, thank you so much for making our 26 yr metchaversary the best metchaversary yet! In a super close 2nd off, our food was spot on!! Kitchen, thank you for rockin' it out!! I got the filet and my husband got the ribeye. We split the steaks and they were spot on medium rare. How they get that thick of steaks so perfectly seasoned and cooked is beyond me but they were perfect!! We have been going to Citizen Kane's when we can for 26 yrs (yes, our 1st real date together was here 26 yrs ago) and it's always been amazing but this time was the best yet. Just when I thought it couldn't get better they outdid themselves again! I had the carrot cake and he had chocolate chip cheesecake. It was our 1st time getting dessert and we're kicking ourselves for never getting the desserts before. The carrot cake was warm and a had the creamiest cream cheese icing that melted in my mouth. I also have to recommend their signature Manhattan if you like a great drink to compliment your meal. Hands down, best steak, drinks, & dessert in StL Metro!!

I tried to celebrate Chinese Valentine’s Day with my fiancé and found this steakhouse on Reddit. People recommended it, so I had high expectations. However, I felt that the steakhouse was overpriced. When I received the steak, it was not cooked to my desired medium-rare in the center, so I had to return it. After reheating, it was overcooked. The fried onion was also terrible. Even frozen onion rings are better than what I got here.

This is definitely a neighborhood regulars type of place. After reading such great reviews, pretty disappointed. It’s a good deal with salad or soup and a side included but the filet mignon was severely lacking flavor. The service was good but we were constantly interrupted for water refills and asking if needed a box yet. They also were not sure how to use opentable rewards which was disappointing since connected to reservation.

Place is cozy but can be noisy. Maybe some background music will help. Service was excellent. I ordered the steak medallion as medium well but got well done I think. My wife's Ribeye was almost perfect except it came out too charred for our taste but at least the inside was as she ordered. With only a few dollar difference I would get the Ribeye for the portion. It did not come with a sauce the medallion did. The burgundy peppercorn and mushroom sauce was delish. We were served bread and butter while waiting. We came late so there is enough parking. I'ts not a big place I would call ahead to reserve.

We were present late at night, so that may have influenced the experience. Customer service was superb. The ambiance was also great! The food was really good. Recommend for a good date night/anniversary celebration. Dinner with friends to talk business or just a fancy treat. It'll be worth your penny.
