Description

Kevin Willmann gained a following for his work at Erato on Main in Edwardsville, Illinois. At Farmhaus he takes his approach - smaller portions, intensely flavored, beautifully constructed - to the next level. The menu changes frequently, but you can't go wrong with seafood: An avid fisherman, Willmann cut his teeth as a chef on the Gulf Coast. Standouts have included escolar poached in butter and wine with grilled blue prawns and a Cajun mahi-mahi dish. An other highlight: the aptly named "Breakfast" dish, featuring a poached egg, housemade sausage and pork belly. An unpretentious but utterly delicious experience.

  • 2012 | Best Fried Chicken

    A phrase you rarely hear: "I wish every day were Monday!" But it just might be you exclaiming this after lunch at Farmhaus. At Kevin Willmann's acclaimed restaurant, Monday is fried-chicken day, the first of its weekday "Blue Plate" lunch specials. For $10 (plus tax and tip) you get two pieces of fried chicken with mashed potatoes and mac & cheese, a salad and iced tea. It would be a great deal if the fried chicken were just OK. That the fried chicken is super makes it a heist. The... More »

  • 2011 | Best Service in a Restaurant

    Eric Scholle first worked with Farmhaus owner and chef Kevin Willmann in Edwardsville, Illinois, at Erato on Main. Scholle lived in apartment above the restaurant while it was under construction. He met with Willmann and told him, in so many words, that a job was the least Willmann could offer as payback for all the noise and disruption. Scholle's gambit worked, and when Willmann left Erato to open his own place, Farmhaus, Scholle came along. Here Scholle's title is manager, though that... More »

  • 2010 | Best Seafood Restaurant

    You don't have to live on the coast to eat good seafood. Thanks to next-day air, restaurants that are willing to pay -- or, rather, restaurants with customers who are willing to pay -- can obtain very good fish and shellfish. A chef who understands seafood, though, is another matter. In that respect St. Louis is lucky to have Kevin Willmann and his new restaurant -- the year's Best New Restaurant, in fact -- Farmhaus. Willmann earned his stripes as a cook along the Gulf... More »

  • 2010 | Best New Restaurant

    Farmhaus is not, in fact, a farmhouse. The cuisine isn't German. Owner and executive chef Kevin Willmann chose the name as a tribute to his heritage, several generations of Illinois farmers, and his first solo restaurant works as a sort of biography-in-food of the supremely talented chef. Yes, locally sourced ingredients are a dime a dozen these days and no guarantee of quality on the plate, but Willmann's connection to the area, his pride, is clear in the care he affords the produce from...
