"This is my wife and I’s go to place for special occasions. The Crossing is our favorite restaurant in St. Louis. We suggest the tasting menu for the full experience. The food and wine pairings have always been amazing. It is not inexpensive, but it is worth it. Make sure you book reservations."

"Food is good, Nigiri is delicious, albeit smaller. Ginger tastes weird, but wasabi is nice and strong. Rolls are ok because all the sauces are heavy Chinese-food sauces. Sushi sauces are usually super light and are not sweet. The prices are right, so its a good deal. Chinese spring rolls (not Vietnamese spring rolls) are fried, but are quite delicious. Fast attentive service, family friendly and nice staff. So four stars for overall quality!"

"The bowls were really good. We had a Shrimptastic, a Classic and a Build Your Own. There was a lot of shrimp and two large fried shrimp in the shrimp bowl. The build your own included a soft shell, crab as a chosen protein, which was delicious. There are many excellent options for components and flavors. The large bowls are substantial. Be prepared to spend about $20 per bowl. The service is quick."

"If you are looking for a friendly, comfortable, delicious, clean place to eat, sit, work, and/or relax, American Falafel checks all of the boxes. The hospitality is unmatched and is consistent with every visit. The quality and authenticity of the food is equally consistent? complex in flavor, extremely reasonably priced, and the portion sizes are generous and filling. There are a variety of dishes and options to choose from, ranging from dips/spreads (great to share OR get them to go and bring to a party , shawarma wraps, and full plate ?skillet? type meals, which makes it an accessible dining experience based on how hungry you are, your food mood, or how much time that you have, though the food comes out quickly (without compromising quality or presentation every time. Though one can get dishes such as falafels and hummus many places around town, the intentionality and flavors behind Chef Feras?s authentic Jordanian street food approach really sets American Falafel apart. The falafels themselves are the most flavorful that I?ve tried *anywhere*, and each falafel ?bite? is about the size of a lemon (you can get 5 for $6 which could suffice as a meal by itself! New to food from this part of the world? Ask for a recommendation they?re so happy to help. Even if you just stop in to relax or say hello, owner Mohammed is always quick with warm greetings and a cup of seriously unmatchable hot Jordanian Bedouin tea with fresh mint. PS there?s wifi, outdoor seating, and they?re pup friendly. ???? ???? don?t wait! ???? ????????"

"So the first waiting period was 1 hour 20 minutes to get in. Then drink for 15 minutes. The waitress was great. Appetizers came in 20 min. The food lasted an hour. There were large gaps for 4 people between each get food. At least 20 min for all to get food after the first plate. My son got his Cheeseburger and Pommes and they were completely cold and had to be sent back. I have the Hibachi Steak and Wasabi potatoes. It was terrible and floating in oil. It may only be my taste buds, but I didn't like it. Wife got flat bread pizza and loved it."
