Description

The opening of SqWires should lay to rest any lingering skepticism about how cosmopolitan St. Louis can be when we put our mind to it. The restaurant is an urban showpiece, part of the renovated Western Wire Products factory in Lafayette Square. The simple, spirited food, with seafood featured prominently, keeps pace with the restaurant's dynamic design.

    The Ten Best Food Events in St. Louis This Weekend: March 8 to 10

    By Mabel Suen | Fri, March 08, 2013

    If you fly 30,000 oysters in from the Pacific coast, they will come. We imagine those were the sort of thoughts the folks at Schlafly had when planning their first stout and oyster festival. Help them... More »

    Black Lightning coffee

    By Randall Roberts | Wed, February 28, 2007

    This time last year, we were done with coffee. After a long love affair with the brown angel, we figured we'd had our share. In our years of morning coffee, we've drunk an estimated 131,400 ounces (averaging 20 ounces a day over 18 years). That... More »

    86 the Banana Split

    By Rose Martelli | Wed, January 11, 2006

    There are diners, and then there are "diners." A diner is a greasy spoon, a coffee shop, a neighborhood cheap-eats establishment whose sole raison d'être is to feed the hungry, fast. A diner doesn't bother with amenities (cloth napkins, paper... More »

  • 2008 | Best Seafood Restaurant

    Obvious statement No. 1: Unless you count prairie oysters, the Midwest is not a region celebrated for its seafood. Obvious statement No. 2: We live in an age of speedy transportation and efficient refrigeration. Obvious statement No. 3: Too few restaurants in St. Louis bother to take advantage of the wonders of our modern age. And then there is SqWires. Every afternoon at happy hour, you can wander in and purchase a freshly shucked oyster or two or three for a dollar a pop. You can slurp the... More »

  • 2005 | Best Place for a First Date

    Until recently, we were of the opinion that to qualify as a potential first-date destination, a venue must offer booze, and plenty of it. (You know, to overcome the awkwardness of the situation.) Then we went out on a date with someone who doesn't drink. Suddenly, "shooting," "pounding," and "shotgunning" were unavailable as first-date activities. So we had to find other things to do. Like "walking." And guess what? Walking turns out to be great on a first date! Think about it: You don't... More »

  • 2003 | Best Restaurant for a Power Lunch

    In terms of stone-cold requirements for qualification in this category, St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay has been spotted at SqWires -- and, occasionally, ambushed by civic-minded customers. But more to the point, as SqWires has become the midday destination of choice for downtown workers looking to throw intimate award luncheons or retirement get-togethers, job-seekers and ladder-climbers would do well to settle into one of the comfy-chic banquettes, dive into the onion soup, bruschetta or...
