Eat-rite Diner

This place caught my eye the other day leaving George Lopez's show, so I decided to stop while I was in the city for an appointment. The ladies working were awesome to start. Very personable and made you feel very welcome. I ordered a slider with no bun. It doesn't look like much, but it was great. I figured that it wouldn't have much flavor being a slider, but it did and it was juicy. The produce was fresh and tasty. Their fryer was down today, but they said they had a replacement coming in later on, so I'll have to come back with my family to try the fries. It's very inexpensive. I highly recommend it. Also, they don't use preformed patties, it's fresh ground beef that they form themselves.

This place is a route 66 classic! This was on my list of places to visit when we came to St Louis just because it's famous for being an old-timey lunch counter . Cash only, no tables. The lunch counter seats about 14. The staff is friendly but all-business, since they cook, bus and serve all at once. People is busy, I can respect that. The food is nothing to write home about; your standard greasy spoon / diner fare. I think they should sell more swag like stickers and t-shirts. Also, some reviews said this was in a bad neighborhood - I don't really understand what they're talking about. Made some new friends chatting with random strangers at the lunch counter. This would not be the place to visit if you're feeling anti-social, since you are elbow to elbow with your fellow diners.

This place is perfect for a quick bite to eat! I'm in love with it. The menu is basic and simplistic but nostalgic and satisfying. There are no tables, only a counter with mounted, colourful stools. The space is small like a waffle house. Our server/cook was sweet and fast. The have daily specials that are not on the menu mounted above the grill. They're open till midnight every day, I wish you'd just a quick visit for great bite to eat.
