Bistro La Floraison

"As my husband and I have grown older, we have become very particular about spending an evening in a restaurant. So many times, we come away disappointed with a three or four hundred dollar bill. We are not foodies by any means but we definitely are wine snobs which drives our bill up. We made early reservations on Saturday night. Promptly shown to our table. Cozy is the perfect word for the atmosphere. Our waitress was lovely and very efficient. We ordered cocktails that were terrific. We tried the 40 dollar shared appetizer which was sublime. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the caviar. We ended up ordering the bread and butter. It felt like we were in Paris. The main courses were outstanding. My husband ordered mussels which are his absolute favorite. He compared them to the ones in a restaurant in Bayeux, called Rapiere which is Michelin starred. That good!! I ordered the chicken. My only minor critique was that boneless might have been a better option and slightly too much dijon mustard in the coating. The wine list is excellent. We both had glasses of white wine, pinot blanc and the chardonnay. We went home and ordered the chardonnay off of the internet. Overall, just an amazing meal."

"What a wonderful place to have a small event. The food is outstanding! A heart felt thank you to Tara and her staff for making our day so special❤️Tammy P."

"Had a wonderful time. We came for our anniversary and the staff was very friendly and told us happy anniversary many times. The food was delicious. I had the stripped bass and my wife had the fried chicken cordon blue and they were both incredible. The bread and butter are great as well. Our server Emily was very friendly and did a great job. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion."

"Best experience in St. Louis yet! The food was excellent: even the olives were to die for!!! The braised short rib will melt in your mouth. The drinks were perfect. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. And the staff is very helpful and pleasant. Thank you!"

"Hands down the best birthday dinner I have ever had. I am not from Saint Louis, and had a very hard time finding a French cuisine restaurant that ticked all the boxes for food, atmosphere, service. It was absolutely wonderful. Their cocktail Menus ! Finally a place that really had a refreshing cocktails with color, texture and aroma ! Fabulous The servers where so sweet, the environment was light calm and intimate. Their plating was beautiful the dishes made you smile. I could not stop saying YUM throughout the entire meal. The meat MELTED. My dish tasted like a cool summer day in a beautiful garden. So delicious ! They surprised me with a dairy free frozen treat with dark chocolate chips and a candle. Thank you for that I was so surprised and it was lovely. Our server Emily, thank you for making my birthday very delightful. And thank you to the very tall server sorry I didn’t not catch your name but offering to take a photo of me and my partner - the photo was perfect! Thank you, I plan to continue return and will try your other restaurants."
