Great service, good for large groups. Our group of 10 sat outside on the back patio and it was very comfortable. The food was full of unique flavors. They have lots of gluten-free and vegetarian options. The sweet potato fajitas were perfectly cooked. Equal parts sweet and spicy.

We recently had our wedding reception dinner here. Tim and his staff were attentive, considerate, and accommodating to our gluten-free guests. Our group sat in the arcade, which received a lot of compliments from our guests. When we arrived, pre-ordered food was ready. Tim communicated the entire way. The food was excellent! We will definitely be coming back soon for dinner.

I had an absolutely delightful dining experience at @yemanjabrasil recently 🤤! This hidden gem in Benton Park offers a wide range of options for every palate, catering to gluten-free, vegetarian, pescatarian, and even vegan preferences. It's the perfect spot for a romantic date night or a fun evening out with friends. For appetizers, we savored the mouthwatering empanadas, crispy Yucca fries, and the delightful Coxinha de porco defumado. The flavors were exquisite! The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the main course, Bobo De Camarão. It was a perfect blend of flavors and left us craving for more. Dessert was a divine affair as well. We indulged in the delectable coconut flan 🍮 and a scrumptious chocolate dessert topped with whipped cream. The desserts were so good that I'm still thinking about them 😅! Don't miss out on this culinary paradise! Add @yemanjabrasil to your must-visit list as soon as possible. You won't be disappointed!

I love this sweet little café! Their new space is beautiful— it's bright and airy inside and they have a courtyard space too. Plenty of parking in their parking lot. Colleen makes the most beautiful dishes that taste as good as they look. She puts so much love and creativity in every dish and you can tell by the menu and ingredients that they are sourcing from local farms. The portion sizes are large and there are a variety of things on the menu to cater to almost any diet— lots of vegetarian and gluten-free options, and one of the few places in town where you can eat out and feel like you're eating healthy. Our server was kind and helpful and enjoyable to talk to. Love this spot!

Lovely Cafe for breakfast! We ate here several times during a visit to St Louis, both eat in and carry out. The food was fantastic, the coffees were well made and they did great with dairy and gluten allergies!

Only cafe with comfy chairs that I know of in the area except for the Gelateria Coffee Company (take notes, other Cafes!). Coffee is from Blueprint which is great. Don't expect a fully staffed kitchen, but they have sandwiches, gluten free wraps and pastries at a reasonable price. Definitely check out the events when they are open in the evening starting at 6, which happen multiple times per week. The owner and workers are very nice. The bookshop was consignment only. It would be nice if they could hook up with bookshop.org or some other supplier... I'd order through them if they did. Most times I decide to read a book I have a specific title or author in mind, which they couldn't help me with. And best of all, OPEN ON MONDAYS AND TUESDAYS! A rarity nowadays.
