Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Forest Park

I wasn't expecting to find my new favorite restaurant when I booked a reservation for Valentine's Day, but Maggiano's went above and beyond to give me the best service despite being busy. Every server and host was very friendly and patient. The restaurant was clean and cozy and fairly quiet even though it was packed. The drinks were amazing (I got a pomegranate martini and my boyfriend got the frozen peach bellini with a swirl) and came out fast. The food was absolutely phenomenal and well worth the money. I recommend the Branzino Crab Imperial! All in all, I had a wonderful experience and will be happy to dine here again in the future.

Valentine's Day was a fixed menu - two entrees, two appetizers, two desserts options. They offered a lovely "palate cleanser" between the apps and the entree -- nice touch. They also offered us "free" champagne as we entered -- another nice touch. (I say "free" because it's a fixed price so I'm sure it was covered in there but, still, a lovely way to be greeted.) Our server was friendly, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. Parking was free (validated when we paid our bill) and convenient. We will definitely be back.

Very nice restaurant, quiet and good food. I would recommend to friends and family.

This was our first time dining here prior to attending our show and it will now be our normal place to dine prior to the each show. Also the service was amazing and the food was incredible.

Our visit was good. Bally allowed us to watch our Chiefs with other fans like ourselves. Although the food and drink was a bit “pricey” we enjoyed ourselves
