Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Robust offers a delightful dining experience with "excellent food," a "huge wine selection," and an inviting atmosphere. Guests appreciate the "wonderful" service and enjoy the live music, which adds to the "great for a date night" ambiance. While some find it pricey, the outdoor patio and shareables make it a popular choice.

    I dont love giving a bad review but our experience was not good. 1st of all, they had a winter wine-derland event and supposed to get a 3 ounce poor of bubbly upon arrival and we had to ask for those and charged 10$ a piece.. Took a bit. The food was not great. In fact we had a table of 4 and the flavor profiles were off. Chicken with Parmesan risotto with vinegary veggies. Seems like the other 3 items had similar issues with similar lack luster soggy veggies and odd flavor/cooking methods. Got some broccoli and again they were grilled but then steamed after so soggy. We asked for two desserts and only got one and had to leave so couldn’t wait for the 2nd before we found our waitress. Bill for the 4 of us was $250 without tax so felt like the value was off. Feels like a decline in quality vs price! Maybe was just a bad night but don’t think we will go back!

    Love the idea of this restaurant. The Christmas themes and decor throughout December were amazing! And in the summer I love the patio and live music. I have just always found their food to be a bit disappointing. The last time we were there, my husband's steak was overcooked as was my salmon. Each time the food is just okay. Wish I loved it more.

    We had some problems with our food coming out. Some items were cold and one entree never came out so we had to get it in a go container. Drinks were very good. The $10 add on to each tab for Winter wonderland made no sense as each of us also ordered from the regular menu. Not sure I'll be going back.

    Went to the Winterwinderland on Monday night. I was excited as it sounded like a fabulous ideas. The hostess was lack luster at best and could not find my reservation. What the promoted and what I got fell short. They were also out of several of the items in the holiday menu, drinks and food. I thought I hard already bought my tickets but then still charged. I love Robust and was just hoping for a better experience.

    First time there and we will be back. Food and service were amazing. Plenty of choices for those who like to try a little bit of everything. Very good cheesecake, and by far, the best bread pudding in the stl area. Thank you to the lovely lady that took our table, sorry the wine made me forget your name

    Robust is doing a Christmas theme each night in December! The restaurant is totally decorated and looks amazing! Really gets you in the spirit! I love that they're doing this. Every waiter (Except ours ;) ) had some sort of Christmas outfit on and it was a really fun experience!!
