Best Restaurants Open for Newyears Eve this year in Edwardsville – 2024

The food is consistently delicious. The atmosphere is busy, somewhat noisy and festive. We had to wait 40 minutes for a table but it was worth it.

I enjoyed myself there the food was great along with the service. Our server Scott was one of the best servers I ever had. Super friendly and provided everything we needed before even asking. Texas Roadhouse is lucky to have Scott as their server. The classiness, the artwork and decorations around the building was so beautiful.

The food was amazing and The service was great. Our waiter went above and beyond to make sure we had absolutely everything we needed and was very accommodating when we brought our own birthday cake for the birthday dinner. Accommodations should have been made by pushing the table together with the booth so that our group could have all set together instead of next to each other. But we made it work and enjoyed the food and a good night. So I highly recommend going here and if you have a large group, I recommend at least asking to have the group seated altogether.

I honestly regret not coming here sooner. It's like the hidden gem in Edwardsville. To start, they gave like a half loaf of bread. In the picture of the bread, we had already taken a couple of pieces. Awesome. I got the Caesar salad, …

Outstanding service! I highly recommend trying their seafood pasta; it's exceptionally fresh and flavorful. The meatballs are impressively large, and the portion sizes are just right—not too much, not too little. Perfect for an adult meal.

Just a good local bar. The food menu is pretty simple but good. There is usually live music on the weekend "only time I go" they probably have drink specials but when I go it's with a group so we do pitchers or bottles. Pretty decent liquor selection. I've never had bad service. Sometimes slow, usually due to a random large party showing up 20+ deep. I've seen this bar go from 10-15 people to 60 in 20 minutes. Try the Horseshoe off the menu.

I visited Stagger Inn for lunch recently, and the dining experience was certainly a mixed bag. On one hand, the food was exceptional. I ordered the muffaletta and found it absolutely delicious. Every bite was a delight, and it was obvious that a lot of care had gone into preparing it. My partner had the black bean burger, which was a welcome sight for those following a vegan diet. We appreciated the diverse options on the menu, and the effort to cater to different dietary preferences is commendable. However, the restaurant's ambience and cleanliness were a cause for concern. The decor is interesting, with various objects attached to the ceiling and taxidermied animals adding a unique touch. However, an overwhelming layer of dust covering everything is rather off-putting. From ceiling tiles to light fixtures and the taxidermied animals, the dust seems to have found a home everywhere. These objects, positioned directly over the dining and food service area, made us question the overall hygiene of the place. While we enjoyed our meals, the cleanliness issue left us uneasy. Eating in an environment where dust particles can easily find their way into the food raises health concerns. It was disconcerting to see so much dust in a place where cleanliness should be paramount. In summary, Stagger Inn offers a delightful culinary experience, but the cleanliness issue cannot be overlooked. A deep clean could go a long way in improving the dining atmosphere and making customers feel more comfortable. Despite the wonderful food, the dust issue gives pause for thought and it's something that should be addressed promptly.

Been coming here for 13 years. Never had a bad time. Place is exceptional. Great music coming and going. Great food when served and bar tenders are great.

If you looking for one of the best burgers you have ever had, plus a fun environment, come here. Word on the street is the very talented owners are Cicero’s and it shows with the killer beer and craft cocktail selection. Service here is top tier. Heather and Payton always make the best drinks, beer recommendations and go above and beyond for their customers. I highly recommend the Goat or DJ Goomba. If you are feeling adventurous try the Dingus. You won’t regret it.

Made a quick stop in Edwardsville today and stumbled across Sneakys Bar and Burger. We did not get a chance to try the burgers but locals made sure to tell us to stop back because they are awesome. We did get a pour of Van Winkle and it was superb! Service was fantastic too. Hope to stop back again!

My husband and I were in the area and wanted a quick bite that wasn’t fast food. Unfortunately they didn’t have high chairs for our son that was with us. (to be expected more a bar than a burger spot, totally fine/understandable.) So, we just ordered a couple of burgers to go. their fryer was out so we didn’t get a chance to try the tots (sadly) but TOTALLY fine because their burgers made up for it! So yummy and quick.

We ❤️ this place! So clean with chief created foods. The dessert pizzas are one of my favorites. I like how the menu changes and wish they would give me their Ranch Dressing recipe I usually do not like Ran h Dressing but their recipe is perfect, nice thick and very tasty.

Peel does a good overall experience from food to brew to service. On a busy Saturday, we had to wait a bit to get our drinks and food, but not a crazy long time. Our server was attentive as much as she was running around. Personally, I would like my pizza to be a little more down with a few more ingredients. Seemed light on the toppings. The flavor was there though. A very nice atmosphere in this week designed building.

My family & I have been visiting Peel for over a decade and can say that this is one of my favorite pizza places. The pizza flavors are bold and perfect. This place uses great quality ingredients and it shows!

If you’re looking for something more than just a good meal, you need to visit Mousallis Prime. It’s more than just good food, it’s an awesome experience. The wait staff is so attentive and friendly. The owners are always there to greet you and make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is chill and relaxing. The food.. The food is top notch. Everything from the soup to the salads to the appetizers to the main course and the desserts and of course the drink selection. I highly recommend any of their steaks and every single one of their burgers.

My birthday celebration here was fabulous!! Antoine Mousalli and fam, along with Colin, took the utmost care to make our evening above and beyond superb. The food was outstanding, unique, and so delicious!! Their creations were the best ever!! Can't wait to return. Thanks from the bottom of my .

Wow. Excellent food. Great service. I had the Duck Breast and Confit. My wife had the catch of the day, Alaskan halibut. Both dishes were amazing. We also ordered dessert, gooey butter cake and flour-less chocolate tort. Both were very good but very rich. I can't recommend this place enough.

Amazing food, great service! Made a birthday dinner extra special with a free dessert. Get the mushroom ravioli or salmon! Wow! Amazing. Try to call ahead for reservations, do not use the google online reservations thing. It does not work.

Incredible space, even better food! The service was wonderful - Kristen took great care of us and the whole staff made us feel welcomed! I loved the scallops on special - they tasted fresh from the coast, juicy, & succulent. We ordered a bunch of appetizers - all were outstanding. The calamari and some sort of artichoke appetizer were my two favorites! Everyone was very happy with the dining experience.

I cannot say enough good things about this establishment. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about everything they have to offer. The space is unique and inviting. The owners are lovely and are always around to chat and make sure everything is running up to their standards. The food speaks for itself. Everything I have had here (from sandwiches and salads at lunch time to appetizers, pasta, dessert and cocktails at dinner time) has been amazing! I eat out quite often and I haven’t been this excited about a restaurant in a while. Highly recommended!

Restaurant was empty, that should have been a sign on a Saturday at 6pm. The food was nothing to “slap my mama” for. I had the blackened tacos they were extremely bland. I added salt, the “punch daddy” seasoning, and cole slaw still nothing. The $6 Dollar Long Island ice tea special HAD ZERO alcohol in it, (in my opinion). This place was not for me. However, please feel free to have your own experiences. My friend had crab cakes she saids it was 3 out of 5. They call this red beans and rice it’s very liquidity never seen nor taste anything like it before, and never will.

Service was excellent. Food was so so. I was surprised at the issues with my boil. Overcooked potatoes and not much seasoning. Shrimp was good.

We've been to this restaurant numerous times over the last 5 years. Last night might have been our last. Friday night around 5:30 with the dining room not even half full. Service was slow and getting food out of the kitchen was even slower. I ordered the grouper sandwich and when they served it the small piece of fish covered barely half the stale bun it was put on. I'm guessing 3 to 4 oz of fish tops. My wife got the spinach salad with salmon with the salmon being undercooked. Waitress clearly seen the salmon wasn't eaten but didn't bother to inquire if everything was okay. We didn't send it back to get cooked more because we were already so late due to the poor service we were going to miss our show.

Waitress, food, and drinks were fantastic! However we did run in to an issue where the 20 yr Port wine we ordered (by the bottle!) it was actually 18$ per glass (according to waitress and bartender, but not menu). Bartender seemed very upset that we had concerns about this, however she removed it from our tab. Other than that, a great experience!

My family and I (party of 10 who called before arriving) went to dinner 9/14/24. We were seated immediately outside which was fine. We all ordered our food at the same time. The waitress seemed irritated. 4 of us received our food. 45 minutes later 4 more plates came. 15 minutes later the other 2 got their plates. There was no "I'm so sorry", or any kind of acknowledgement that this was not ok. The waitress never once came to see if we needed refills. When I asked to talk to the manager, the manager said she could take $6.00 off! It was the worst eating out experience I've ever had in my life. We will never be back.

The service was great! The food was okay. My chicken strips were a bit overcooked. Very nice place overall.my biggest complaint would be the bathroom floor was extremely sticky, which grossed me out! Also, they were out of the beer we wanted and the food we wanted. Which was crazy!

Went there for a late lunch, really enjoyed trying many parts of the menu with my wife. Of note, the biscuits with butter and jam were smashing. Cauliflower appetizer was good, I enjoyed my soup and salad. My wife did not care for the particular sandwich she had, but she really wanted to come back and try other things.

Cleveland Heath in Edwardsville, IL, offers a fleeting glimpse of delight in a world often devoid of meaning. My wife and I dined there, finding momentary reprieve in the midst of life's chaos. The deviled eggs appetizer was a delightful start, each bite a reminder that simple pleasures can still be found. The Brussel sprouts, caramelized to perfection, provided a savory escape, their crisp exterior and tender inside a testament to the beauty that can exist in the mundane. The chop chop salad brought a refreshing burst of flavor, its harmonious blend of ingredients a fleeting symphony in an otherwise dissonant world. The Gringo tacos with shrimp were a standout, the succulent shrimp and fresh toppings offering a vibrant distraction from life's uncertainties. For dessert, the key lime pie was a perfect conclusion, its tangy, creamy filling and crisp crust a sweet reminder that moments of joy can be savored, even if they are temporary. Cleveland Heath is a place where culinary excellence offers a brief but welcome respite from the existential void, making it a must-visit for those seeking a taste of something meaningful amidst the chaos.

It was my first experience in Edwardsville and I really loved the cherry pie there. For me its one of the best things in the whole world. The French Fries there, have my heart as well. Good place, amazing staff.

Wonderful atmosphere with delicious food and cocktails, the service was outstanding, Bartender Dane took great care of us and made us feel very welcomed. We had the duck wings, Ahi tuna and calamari (which was breaded to perfection and so tender and flavorful. We are definitely coming back for another happy hour.

Had a lovely brunch there with my wife. The atmosphere is wonderful for a date night or a group outing. The staff were incredibly helpful and professional, I had a wonderful time talking to them when they stopped by. The food was good, I would argue some of it was a little tasteless for the price but overall I was happy. The best deal was the breakfast burrito, which is a weird statement to make in a classy restaurant. The lobster Benedict was okay, though the hollandaise sauce was a bit bland. The risotto was mediocre, but I lived in Italy for a few years so I have a high bar to impress. Overall I would be willing to give it another chance.

Ashley was a fabulous server. She was so friendly and personal, even while serving multiple tables. We ordered toasted ravioli appetizers, Milano salad, and chicken spedini. All were quite pleasing to the palate. The gentle breeze on the patio was refreshing on a warm day. This is a restaurant that we like to visit when we are in the area, 3-4 times per year. An absolute favorite.

I was in there lastnight, June 9th. My server was absolutely amazing. He was really, our drinks were never empty, and he was great with my kids. The timing of everything was great. I am from the area, but live in Tennessee, and we come almost everytime, we’re in town. Now into the not so great part. Service had nothing to do with my food experience. I should have said something, but I didn’t want to wait for a new steak , with a 5 & 2 year old starting to get antsy. Everything was warm, besides my steak. I got it medium rare, I think it was the first thing to get done, and it just sat and got over cooked. Parts of the steak was medium, and the other half was med well. My sides were hot, and the kids food were hot. I got the Boursin Filet. I get it everytime. I should had said something, but I didn’t and that’s my fault. I will be back again. Im a server myself, and things happen.

I cannot speak highly enough about Bella Milano! The staff are amazing! The entire staff will ensure you have everything you need. It is not just one server. The toasted rav are AMAZING, the meat sauce and marinara are both delicious! The spinach artichoke dip is rich and creamy with plenty of delicious artichoke. The pita was well toasted. The salad was amazing, it is a simple salad with amazing house made dressing. The Beef Milano is one of the most amazing pieces of beef I’ve ever had. Cooked to absolute perfection!!! I will be back! So amazing. The spaghetti carbonara is also amazing. It is not on the menu any more though, so you have to ask for it as an off the menu request.

On Sunday, Oct 27th, had the pleasure of dining at a hidden gem that left me utterly impressed…1933 Bourbon House. As I walked in, I was captivated by the warm and inviting decor. The restaurant's interior was a perfect blend of modern elegance and cozy charm, with soft lighting that created a relaxing atmosphere. We were celebrating multiple events, and our party was very large. The food was nothing short of spectacular. I met the chef and he was amazing. The owners Bernard & his wife were very hospitable and made me, my wife and friends feel at home. Started with the appetizers and then to the entrees and the desserts each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavors that danced on my palate. But what truly set this dining experience apart was the old-fashioned whisky I had. It was, without a doubt, the best I've ever tasted. Each sip was smooth and warming, making it the highlight of my evening. If you're looking for a place that offers amazing food, a delightful ambiance, and a memorable drink, this restaurant is a must-visit. Though it is 50 miles from where I live, I plan to come back as often as I can.

Food was good. Wings were tiny for the price but taste and doneness was very good. Steak was great. Pasta was excellent. Not big on the truffle fries.

Excellent service by Beth and the French Onion Soup was perfect. The place is very clean and cozy plus offers outside seating. The creamed spinach and steak sandwich were very tasty along with the Old Fashion and the Elderberry beverage I had. We will come back again.

Let's talk food first. It was on point. Absolutely delicious. The risotto was divine. Done perfectly. Their salmon is the best I've ever had. The filet melted in my mouth. Everything about the food was perfect. The drinks were excellent. Our server was very smooth. Friendly and professional, stopped by the table just enough. He wasn't overbearing or bothersome. I was surprised and disappointed that the first set of dishes we received weren't clean. We had to tell the waiter to bring new ones. The atmosphere left a lot to be desired. The place felt like it was trying to be fancy, but it didn't quite hit the mark. The outside gave a more upscale feeling than the inside. We weren't greeted when we walked in. It took five minutes for a waiter to notice us standing there. Mind you, we had a reservation. When the hostess finally greeted us, it was a bit of a letdown. I expected her attire and demeanor to be of a higher caliber. It didn't make the greatest first impression. The lighting felt too bright for fine dining, and the music was WAY off. The bathroom was clean, but there was a sign on the counter saying do not sit, which lowered the quality of the surroundings. I don't know that I would go again. The food really was great, but for the price point, I expected a higher quality environment and a total experience. I was disappointed. I gave four stars instead of three because 3.5 is not an option, and the food was too good to be rated lower than that.

Great place for happy hour, drove 35 minutes to get there. It did not disappoint I had goat cheese wrap dates, prime rib sliders and a Cajun bacon, deviled egg. Everything was great. I will be back very happy

Came here for Mother’s Day with my parents visiting from PA and my husband. Our waiter Payton was THE best! So attentive and just knew how to make our night even more special. The food was AMAZING. I got the 7 V 7 special. Steak and Scallops. I’m from The East Coast and have missed good seafood. So perfectly made. It was one of the best meals I’ve had ever. My parents loved it too. Daughter got the grouper special and that was also yum! Classy but yet comfortable restaurant. Highly recommend. And ask for Payton!!
