Blueberry Hill — Restaurant in University City

I love the music they played in the background. They had a live band playing in the Duck Room, which is in the basement of Blueberry Hill during the time we went. You could feel the floor vibrating which was nice. I definitely would recommend the cheese curds. They're like mozzarella sticks but square and filled with cheddar cheese. They are delectable for an appetizer or a snack if you're drinking at the bar. I went with my son and my husband. It was really nice because the server brought us a highchair without us even having to ask. The prices are fine, the food is delicious, and the service is wonderful. I love the ambiance of Bluberry Hill. I love that you seat yourselves and that you can sit outside or inside and if you face towards the window you can see all the people walking by outside. If you like to people watch, like me, it's a really cool place. The Delmar Loop is a cool place in general but Blueberry Hill has always been a favorite of mine since I was young. My one and only complaint is that they charge you .50 cents more for dipping sauce. But other than that... the servers, bus boys, and bartenders are great and always seem to be smiling and in a good mood. Also the pictures of the owner and every famous band or person he's ever met are hanging on the walls. It's really neat to look at those pictures and see who's all been there and came through. There are literally hundreds of pictures with the owner and famous people. Also my son loved all the toys in the display cases. He kept wanting to try to open the glass and play with them and we kept telling him it's locked sweetie but they have so many cool things and so much memorabilia it's amazing. I would recommend this to all people that haven't been there yet that live in St Louis and to all tourists that are coming through St Louis. This is a must see on you stop or in...

Tried to get lunch here today. Ordered toasted ravioli appetizer upon sitting down, as well as burgers. Twenty-five minutes later, still no sign of even appetizers. We asked for our check, wanting to pay for our drinks and leave, telling them we were going elsewhere. The ravioli then appeared. I asked to speak to a manager and was refused. The server assured me he could help me. I told him he should comp the ravioli, or the drinks, or something. The restaurant was half empty after all. Terrible service for a Saturday lunchtime. He refused. So I never actually spoke to a manager. I did talk to the bartender on the way out and he assured me he'd pass along my issues. Anyway, we wanted to have a nice meal, instead left in a bad mood. Definitely won't be going back. Hopefully I can save you the trouble too. They are SUPER slow. And have no qualms about it. No recourse for customers. Just pay and leave. So we spent 25.00 for a couple sodas, a cocktail, and some toasted ravioli that honestly tasted like they could have come out of my toaster oven, and really horrendous service. I've never had a server refuse to let me speak to a manager. The bartender was a nice guy at least. Oh well.

Edit in response to owner comment: Our server was a light skinned black male, short in height, medium length curly hair. He was very nice, but frankly seemed lost and clueless on the floor. Moving slowly and without purpose. The waiter I flagged down and asked about a manager was a skinny blond kid. He was very dismissive of my concerns. (I did see a few waiters, a young lady, and two gentlemen who looked to be a bit older (thirty maybe?) than the rest, who were all hustling). The bartender was friendly and apologetic. We sat at a booth table right by where the food comes out. Hope...

My Partner and I had dinner at Blueberry Hill over the weekend. I had been here maybe 2-3 times before over the years, but every time I come I always in awe of the place. There's all types of memorabilia kept in glass cases throughout the restaurant. From old Barbie to Simpsons items...just all types of toys and items for the big kid in all of us. Then there's big taxidermy animals hung up on the walls throughout including a lion standing up that you can see from the outside window. Other places on the wall has pictures and album covers from some people/bands I've heard of, but some I hadn't. I just love the ambiance of Blueberry Hill then to have great music playing over the speakers what more can you ask for. This is too cool for you not to visit.

We had dinner and I included pictures of that as well. I had the fish and chips and they were good. I was definitely full upon leaving here as was my partner. Upon entry, you have to have a mask on. They also do contact tracing where they have you sign your name and number on a form just in case anyone tests positive for covid-19 they'll be able to contact everyone in the restaurant on that day/time. I thought that was a good thing.

The establishment seemed clean to us and had partitions to separate the booths. Parts of the restaurant were closed as well. We seated ourselves and was immediately greeted by the waitress who was very cordial. This establishment has street parking, but we had to park about a block down as Delmar Loop area is always busy and parking can be crazy at times. The establishment is wheelchair accessible as well.

Go and enjoy, but make it a family night as the kids will love to look at all the fun stuff around the restaurant while asking you questions about it.
