Delicious food. Took a few work colleagues to lunch here and it worked great. We had 6 and they sat us at a large round table. The dessert was amazing too!

I wish this was a 5 star review but unfortunately it is not. I got the burger with fries and to be honest I was surprised by the bun which was a jalapeno bun and toasted well and was very good with the burger. The burger was not exceptionally good but not bad. The fries.....the fries- Let me paint a picture in your mind, I'm sure you have all seen these types of things, well I have at least. You're in a rural area and as you're looking around you see a shed but when you get closer you see that it's a restaurant; run by one person. Imagine the food from a place like that- the grease, fries overcooked, unseasoned low quality. Well that's pretty much what these tasted like. As you can see in the photo I only 2 fries were consumed, and there's a reason or reasons why... I don't know if it was the cook today or the fries themselves? This is a great place for a lot of things and I do recommend this location for anything else but the fries, trust me not the fries.

Food is always consistently good and the portions are generous. I like the salsa and mixed tortilla chips you get immediately. The wait staff was also very accommodating!

Right by Saks is Canyon Cafe . My first time. The host station is in the central area of the restaurant [huge confusion while standing inside the mall]. Host was very friendly and accommodating. I sat at the bar. Bartender was helpful but busy. I ordered water, chicken quesadillas. I had chips and house made salsa. Chips were 3 different styles I only remember sweet potato but they were all good. Salsa was a tad hot, not typical Mexican restaurant salsa style. Quesadilla were excellent. Had this tomatilla sauce and a spicey mayo based sauce. Mmmmmm. Cake was a tad dryer than I like- and very thick! Worth it's 9$ tag with its Grand Marnier and strawberry sauce!I definitely would return!!

Amazing service, wonderful food. The salsa was a fantastic smoked flavor with perfect consistency. Plenty of food, great quality!

The staff is amazing and so is the food.

Great food one of the best entrees I've had in a long time . The waitress (Shayna) was extremely helpful and friendly . I was so impressed with her going above and beyond her job duties. I will definitely be asking for her again. The staff was also gracious and friendly walked around multiple times asking about the food. You can really tell they take alot of pride in their food and service. We can't wait to come back and this already became one of our favorite restaurants in St.Louis.

Date night for a pre movie dinner with my wife.Incredibly attentive staff looked after our every need.Dinner was delicious. As were our house specialty drinks. And those home made chips!!!

Food was great, service was great until time to get and pay the check, that part of the evening was painfully slow.

Ok Tex Mex, unfortunately it does not separate itself from the pack. Server did a good job and woth stopping in, if you are at Plaza Frontenac
