This place makes the perfect nightcap for a night out on South Grand. While South Grand has been one of my faves for a while, it usually was a spot to have dinner then head off to Morganford or Downtown or whereever. Now that I've been here twice, I can say that this is a great place to hangout - but it is not cheap. While I am not a huge martini drinker, I do have a particular fondness for chocolate martinis. And there is another place in town that I am pretty crazy about that specializes in them. But after having both the regular Chocolate Martini and Amarula Mudslide, I think I prefer the ones here. And that's some high praise. I capped the night with a "Banana Hammock" and that was pretty damn good as well, if a bit girly. They have some snacks to munch on as well but this is not a restaurant. No problemo when you have like 20 restaurants in a 5 blocl radius. Our waitress on this particular evening was super helpful and had loads of good suggestions. It was a bit dead when we first arrived but even after it picked up and she was handling several tables, she did a good job keeping up with us (we can drink fast once we get going). The downside here is that it is pricey. It cost more than dinner...and by more than a few dollars. I am not complaining though, they use top ingredients and take their time on each drink. And this isn't a "let's-get-a-bucket-of-cheap-beer-and-watch-UFC-Âfights" type of place. It has a touch of sophistication that lends itself to higher prices. I am willing to pay more for better drinks and whatnot, but not enough to come here regularly. But don't let my personal cheapness dissaude you. It's also important to keep in mind that some of the nice restaurants on South Grand are actually kind of inexpensive, especially the Vietnamese places. So come here to cap off a great night or if you're craving some tasty concoctions. There are a few other places I'd like to try and see how they compare. But for now, I would say Absolutli Goosed has some of the best drinks in the city.

They had $5 margaritas, Bloody Mary's, and Long Island Iced Teas tonight. I'm not sure why (oh wait, I checked their website, it's Thursday). So the beautiful wife and the most of the post-Meskerem crowd indulged. Started off with the "Nothing But Heat" Bloody Mary -- had a nice heat to it, but wasn't as asskicking at Lola's. Still, this was a good drink. Moved on to the "Simply the Best" margarita. Was it the best? Well, maybe not, but it still packed a punch. Actually, a punch is an understatement. They pour them nice and strong here. Be careful.

Let me state that I am not a huge martini fan, but this place has some amazing cocktails. In addition to an arsenal of delicious martinis, they also have an amazing coconut mojito. My first Goosed experience came a week ago and must say I was impressed. Very cool atmosphere indoor and nice patio area around the corner where patrons can watch the action on S. Grand. Will be back for that mango mojito very soon!

This place is a drinking playground. They have a ton of different vodkas, and very interesting and provocatively named martinis. They also have a bunch of different garnish options. And don't forget about the crazy Bloody Mary options. Service is fast and friendly. The place is small, so tables sometimes are at a premium. Tip... Pho Grand is across the street... and Gelataria de Leone is also at the same corner. Park close and make it a night between these three great establishments.

I popped in to Absolutli Goosed with a few friends for a couple drinks the other night before heading to dinner. They had a pretty sweet happy hour going on at the time, so I started with a Long Island. The decor and feel of the bar is pretty average. Nothing really sets it apart from other mediocre bars in that department. When it came time for seconds, I remembered hearing rumblings of a Pumpkin Pie Martini, but I decided to try something a little adventurous. The waitress was promoting the new Absolut Bacon Vodka that had recently come out. They had a Bacon Bloody Mary on the list, and though she said it was "different," I didn't think I knew what I was getting into. The night took a turn for the worse after the first sip hit my lips. "This is friggin' BACON!" I remember saying. Of course it was...right? Well it wasn't your mom's bacon that she used to make on Sunday mornings as the family gathered around the table for pancakes and juice. This was greasy Waffle House bacon you eat at 2AM when your taste buds have retired for the night. I think at one point during the course of this drink I asked for a chaser of scrambled eggs, which may have helped the overwhelming 'baconyness' (not a word). I finished it because, well I paid for it, thats why. I wasn't happy, and neither was my stomach for the rest of the night. All in all, an average bar who is ballsy enough to serve a drink like that gets an A-OK in my book.
(3)Joe B.
Having splurged on the unique concoctions, I am compelled to report that they are worth the price paid. The inside bartenders were quick, attentive, and up for a little friendly conversation.
(4)Chip K.
Unique menu with lots of martinis. My wife had a "caramel apple," which had SKYY vodka, sour apple liqueur, and caramel sauce. You really couldn't taste any alcohol in it, and she gulped down two because she liked them so much. I tried the "banana hammock" (don't laugh, it sounded good), which had Malibu tropical banana, Van Gogh vanilla, honey and cream. It wasn't terribly banana-y, and you could definitely taste the alcohol in it. Nothing too amazing. Other people we were with ordered, I believe, some sort of lime martini and some sort of chocolate martini and liked them a lot.
(4)Shell D.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. The owners/bartenders are super sweet. All of their martinis are named after candy bars or Austin Powers characters ie. Ivanna Humpalot. The best martini is the "Almond Joy". Even though I have never had the candy bar it's AHHHmazing. And on certain nights they have speed dating, although I have never participated.
(5)Jaffa A.
Absolutli Goosed makes some great drinks. I don't let myself go there that often, as the prices aren't that cheap. Not they are ridiculous--you are getting high quality, not to mention high alcohol content beverages. The last few times I have tried going, it's been way too busy. I'm glad they're doing well, but I prefer to go when it's not completely packed. Although I don't often order sweet drinks, I do like the ones they make. Their chocolate cake martini is awesome and completely clear. It's also completely alcohol, so you might want to be careful of how many you knock back. If you're a bloody Mary fan, try theirs out. They have several to choose from. As garnish, you can choose anything from a stuffed olive to the pickled asparagus, which is great. I am often tempted to try to order a bunch of those.

I have no problem paying for drinks. Balvenie Double-Wood at $25 a pop? Ring it up, that shit is delicious. Needless to say, I was excited about going to AG, because I heard that it served amazing drinks, and lately I've been getting tired of the basic gin & tonic joints I normally frequent. However, I was fairly unimpressed. AG's prices, for almost everything, is beyond reasonable. $7 for a martini? Bless you St. Louis for your low standard of living. However, $9 for a perfect margarita? Its served in a small martini glass that can accommodate maybe 12 ounces; however, its served on the rocks, making the actual liquid content to be around 8-9 ounces. I know it sounds ridiculous to quibble over such things, however I refuse to overlook such ridiculousness. Charge me $9 for a 8 ounce margarita in the Shinjuku district? Sounds right to me, because they know what they're doing. Its billed on the menu as the "perfect" margarita, yet they use sweet and sour mix. I believe that making drinks--a mixologist, not a bartender--is arguably as complicated as being a cook. When done correctly, a mixologist can make drinks that rise to an art form. A mixologist knows that a real margarita never comes in contact with sweet and sour, but only fresh squeezed lime juice. Had it been served like that, I would gladly pay $9. Fuck it, I've paid $14 for one. In total, I tried six drinks (between the lady friend and myself), and they were, for the most part, all underwhelming. The coffee and doughnuts, and the almond joy were decent, if not a tad rich, but other then that, everything else tasted like a glorified shot. I'll probably come back here because, at the least, its a change of pace from my usual haunts, and our server, Brock, was very nice and willing to help with information and suggestions. However, when I return, I will be drinking gin & tonics instead of AG's "martinis." Oh, and don't get me started on the fact that a "proper" martini is vodka-based.

Horrible service, and the drinks weren't good enough to make me overlook it. Six of us visited AG last night for my friend's birthday. Three of us ordered cocktails, while the remaining three were boring and ordered beer and wine -- it wasn't a complicated order at all. It took us longer to get those drinks than I've waited for some food. And, the waitress forgot the birthday girl's long island -- even though we all witnessed her writing it down. We ordered, waited 20 minutes and she comes out with five of the drinks, turns to my friend and is like, "Wait...what did you get again?" Usually I don't get too heated about slow service, but the bar wasn't even that crowded -- no one was standing, there was an empty table in the bac and the patio was closed. And hello, 20 minutes for two beers, glass of wine (you just have to twist the tops off and pour!) and two cocktails? Unacceptable. My coconut mojito was delicious and refreshing, but I can't overlook the serviced offered by that heinous troll of a waitress. I was going to steal some of their glassware to make myself feel better, but alas, there wasn't a clear opportunity. So we paid and ditched the goose to enjoy the rest of our evening on South Grand.

I cannot seem to get off the James Bond girl drinks page of the menu when I go to Goosed. I love trying all the fun drinks. Pussy Galore is my favorite. They also have the Almond Joy martini, yum. Anything with whip cream on the rim.. I'm on it. We did NYE at Goosed for 5 dollar martinis. It was cheap, fun and the sexy blonde bartender was mesmerizing. I have never had bad service at Goosed. A++
(5)Jen C.
My friend was shocked that I have never had a chocolate martini. Apparently, this is the place to go - they have about 10 different chocolate martinis on the menu, plus a crapload of other martinis and cocktails. I can't remember the name of my drink, but I do remember it was smooth, sweet, and the perfect dessert after a big meal. This place is extremely clean, chic, and well located in South Grand. I believe it's a lesbian bar, which makes it all the cooler.
(4)Tim L.
Went here the other night for the first time since it re-opened. This seems more like the place I'd heard a lot of good things about. Vastly improved from a visit last summer. Pleasant, friendly staff, good drinks menu, full but not too-crowded on a Friday night. We only stayed for one round and we ran into friends, so I didn't get to check it out fully, but I'd go back.
(4)Emily V.
I went here with five friends after dinner on my birthday. Initially, there were no tables or seats available, but after looking at the extensive cocktail menu, we decided to stay for at least a drink even if we had to stand. While we were choosing drinks, two separate servers came by to tell us there would be a table available soon and that they'd get it cleared right away. The pumpkin pie martini was on special. One of my friends ordered it and several others tried it and they all agreed that it was delicious. First, I had the ultimate chocolate martini, which was superb. The rim was chocolate--almost like magic shell before it hardens. I followed it up with an Almond Joy martini. It was also fantastic. It had a perfect coconut/chocolate balance, and a whipped cream rim. I'm guessing they were about 400 calories each, but so worth it. The staff were super nice, and the drinks were scrumptious. I would definitely go here again for fancy cocktails.
(5)Aaron J.
Any alcoholic drink aficionado would always have the martini in their list of drinks that they can fall back onto when they want something with that extra little kick. Absolutli Goosed offers more than just a list but a reservoir of martinis, with a whole section devoted to Bond girls. The appeal of this place, besides the fact that you're able to order a drink with the name Pussy Galore, is the price of the drinks, nice and cheap, but that has not taken away anything from the taste atmosphere. Located on in a popular area, Absolutli Goosed is a great place to walk to after dinner for that night cap, or a place to get started.
(5)Jennifer B.
I cannot express how much you need to come here. I didn't realize that I liked drinking all that much until the other night. The drinks here are as beautiful as the surroundings....and the surroundings are gorgeous. It was surprising to me that the drinks weren't all that expensive. Flicking the Bean, Pomegranate Margaritas, Orange Long Island Iced Tea and the lemon drop were my favorites. Don't worry, I was in a sharing group of people, I didn't finish all of these and more. In total my group of five ordered at least two drinks each and everything was at least a little shared. This is the place to go if you want both a fun atmosphere AND good drinks.
(5)Amy S.
If you've spent any time with me, you'll learn that Iiiii LOVE cocktails, especially in fun colors served in martini glasses. I think this goes back to my days as a young 'un, dreaming of all the fun and sophisticated times that awaited me as a grown-up. So I love any place with a menu bigger than most restaurants offer, filled with pages and pages of cocktails, including one whole page devoted to drinks named after Bond girls. These are strong cocktails, as I've discovered after happily swilling too quickly, so you definitely get your money's worth! I've been here when it's packed, and been here occupying one of the only tables, and I generally have had a good time regardless. They really respect fire codes, which can be annoying when you want to squeeze in for a cocktail and the doorman insists you wait for people to clear out, but I guess following the law isn't something I should deduct points for. All in all, my favorite cocktails in the city.
(5)Zachary S.
Good atmosphere and great martini's!!! This place has charm and is perfect for a night cap. If you are not a fan of smoking in bars, then St. Louis in general is not the place for you - and this place is no exception. I will say that you might want to try the martini that has "Pig" and "Leather" in the name. It is trouble... and the chocolate rim... YUM!!!
(4)Morgan W.
They have some ridiculous number of martinis featured...I think it's 500 (give or take a 100). They also have petron margaritas, which you can purchase in pitcher form. Let me repeat: GIANT PITCHERS OF PETRON POMEGRANATE MARGARITA GOODNESS! Why are you still sitting there? Prices are reasonable, but not cheap. That shouldn't stop you. Also, the people that work there offer fabulous service and are willing to hold your hand while you wade through the menu (if they have the time...these girls are busy!)
(5)Paul D.
What a great drink menu. It is dizzying. dizzying I say. I always enjoyed this place. I mean where else can you go and be outnumbered by women six to one....what? really? all of them....most of them? well okay...nevermind that last statement. Its still a great place-- and if you are waiting for a table at pho grand you can have a drink at the goosed and I am 97.2% certain that when your table is ready the pager will work. 4 stars because the doorman was a jerk a few times.
(4)Audra F.
We have been going to Goosed since they opened on South Grand a few years ago. We used to go so often that we didn't have to order our first round - the staff knew what we wanted! We have scaled back since those days but the drinks remain top notch. They have fun appetizers and good happy hour prices. The drinks are inventive and generally the staff are all friendly (especially in the early days of Goosed!). We recommend this place to coworkers and friends to start off a evening out or to have for dessert after dinner. Our favorites are the Pussy Galore and the Porky Pig in Leather. Sure you will feel silly ordering at first but its oh so worth it!
(4)Amanda S.
These bartenders know their stuff and are very friendly. Huge list of martini choices and they are delish! It's a good place to go on a weeknight if you're in the mood for a quiet bar with quality drinks. Not exactly the cheapest place to get a drink, but I think it's worth it every now and then.
(5)John D.
A very interesting and upscale bar (at least after they changed owners) that has some crazy flavoured drinks. The prices are a bit high, and the drinks can taste syrupy. And yet, I still go back their when a friend wants to have a good Cosmo. Somehow, you can't beat their Cosmopolitans. :)
(3)Brett B.
Ok, fancy drinks are a waste of fine liquor - sure. But, some occasions are ripe for them. This place goes all the way with the crazy drinks and never takes them (or itself) too seriously. Silly names, bizarre concoctions, and no pretension. The place is very LGBT-friendly (appreciated) and the staff here can be brusque, gruff, and awesome. Just have fun with it.
(4)Michelle S.
Ducked in here during the rain while walking on South Grand. Wasn't looking for a martini, but glad to have one! I loved their Bloody Mary and they had garnishes I had never had (pickled grape tomato?!) My boyfriend had a Bombay dirty martini which was not too strong and nice and dirty. We did not get a chance to eat, but it sounds like they have great deals on apps. Will for sure return here if I ever crave an interesting martini.
(4)John C.
Bad vibes skunky beer good martinis
(1)Christy A.
I've been to Absolutli Goosed a few times before for apps and drinks but today Yelp's School of Booze drug me through the door. It was a great time with fellow Elites and Robin our personal mixologist and owner of AG. We experimented with 3 delicious drinks; Elite Status (in honor of the Elites) which was a lightly sweet, citrusy mix consisting of Gin & Moscato. Second we concocted The Kentucky Hug (my fav) and I'm not even a Bourbon fan but this was superb! I love Merlot mixing fresh Cherries, Simle Syrup and Bourbon made this drink similar to an adult Capri Sun (less sugary though) . Lastly, we sipped a traditional Sangria. Delicious but more of a heavy taste with Dry Red Wine, Ginger Ale and Brandy. This was a great afternoon lesson; can't wait to get Goosed again.
(4)Christine W.
Horrible service. Horrible drinks. Horrible everything. Went there with friends during the fall festival. They had a few people in the bar, but it was definitely not packed. They took 10 minutes just to take our order of drinks and an order of fries. 10ish minutes later our drinks arrived. The server had made a few recommendations, which were all horrible. We still waited 30 minutes for the fries. When we finally asked for our check, the server stated the fries were about to arrive because the cook just arrived. I am not sure why they took our order if they couldn't prepare it. We asked to cancel the order and for our check. The server then took over 15 minutes to bring the check. We immediately handed her the credit card. After 12 minutes, I went to the bar and asked for our check. Keep in mind we had been waiting a long time to leave. The server told me as an answer they couldn't find our credit card. First, I was a bit confused. We just handed her the card and she walked to the credit card machine. I admit, I did get a bit upset and did say a few F bombs. I do apologize for my language to the servers. None the less - how unprofessional and incompetent! My friend ended up digging through the trash looking for his own card. After about 10 minutes, the main bartender did find our card. Hallelujah!!! They did tell us we didn't need to pay, but my friend was trying to be understanding and told them we would pay for our drinks. Another 30 minutes later they still had not checked him out because their computer system went down. Omg!!! Finally they handed the credit card back and said it was fine. I am so disappointed I can not describe how poor of service we had at this place. Bad drinks, bad service, and complete absent mindedness is what I encountered at Absoluteli Goosed.
(1)Kathy M.
We stopped here just because I thought their name sounded fun! As it happened, they had just opened and we were the only ones in the bar. The bartender was very friendly once she warmed up to my daughter and myself and did a nice job taking care of us. I wanted a light, refreshing drink and she suggested her Chocolate martini. It was an excellent choice! One of the best ones I've had. Sarah had a drink called allotta fagina and thought it was very good and not super sweet. We were able to enjoy $6 martinis during happy hour. It's worth a visit!
(4)Carmel M.
This place is just okay. I had a lot of friends who raved about it and recommended it left and right so we had to try it. It's good--if you like cocktails you will probably love it. I'm more of a beer, maybe wine drinker. They had a few beers and a few wines to choose from but they were just okay at best. The reason it gets three stars was the service. Our bartender/server barely acknowledged us on a Thursday night when it definitely wasn't busy in he slightest. Not friendly, not welcoming or helpful, just made for an overall sour experience. The prices are extremely reasonable... The wine was $7 or so; most cocktails were under $10. So that is nice--we may be back if we are looking for a place to grab a drink but most likely not.
(3)India B.
Service sucks. More interested in each other than customers and not knowledgable about drink ingredients.
(2)Anthony S.
We've been stopping by here on occasion for a couple years for a martini (or 2) and always have a good time, sometimes its a little loud but we like stopping by after dinner at any of the places within the couple blocks of here.
(4)Cyn W.
Great place to chill and have drinks!! My favorite martini is Alotta Fagina ..soooo good, for the fellas I suggest the blood and sand!
(4)Molly O.
I'm giving five not just because they have Monday nite special $5 martinis. Great place to chill with friends and try a ton of different martinis. I can't believe the selection they have. Everyone who works so friendly
(5)Doreen Z.
Came here on a Friday night during pride. It was crowded enough that most of the tables and bar stools were filled but there was ample seating. There are also a few tables outside, which I sadly didn't realize until we left! Bartenders are nice, service is quick. The majority, if not all, of the drinks are under $10. I got a mango Long Island. It was very strong and I left very tipsy :D if you're not into mixed drinks and martinis, they also have some beers. I was surprised that they had a stout! I forget which one exactly but it was from Schlafly. Good place for a date or a small group of friends. Not a dancing kind of place it seems, purely for drinks and catching up. There are lots of restaurants around, I recommend grabbing dinner then drinks and then maybe heading a few miles downtown or to the grove to hit the clubs!
(5)Katherine B.
Suffice to say, I had a good weekend. Our server was really great, attentive and you could tell she knew the drink menu like the back of her hand. I asked for a nice recommendation and she took care of me. I got the salted carmel drink with a chocolate rim martini w cream. It was delicious, strong and smooth. And, I finally tried a rusty nail - delicioso! Slightly sweet and strong is always good for me. Great bar.
(4)Kristen D.
One night my significant other and I came here by accident and drank a whole bunch of really, really ridiculous cocktails, all of which had suggestive names. We're still like, "Remember that time we went to Absolutli Goosed and drank a bunch of really, really ridiculous cocktails? THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN." The place looks like it used to be a bar and grill. It's been gussied up (goosied up?) with some red walls and HomeGoods artwork. I feel reasonably certain that on any given weekend, you could run into at least three bachelorette parties here. You don't go there for the decor or the clientele, though. You go there for the really, really ridiculous cocktails with suggestive names.
(4)Lena A.
Oh my gosh this is absolutely(no pun) the best drink place in St. Louis. The chips and salsa are awesome but the drinks. You have to have one night where you go down the list and just try every drink. Awesome staff
(5)Jenn M.
Probable guarantees about having more than one drink at the Goose: You will have delicious, adventurous, expertly made cocktails. You will spend some considerable money. You will get very, very drunk. I like to use Absolutli Goosed to get a fun night started, or to wrap a night up, without much in between. When celebrating a birthday, for example, it's a great place to meet up with the group, have a first drink that feels special, then move on to bar hopping (and probably switching to beer/some form of moderation). It's also great when I want to have a strong nightcap that practically carries me home and tucks me into bed. Living just a few blocks away provides me with this luxury. I went here for my 21st and got a Pink Coconut Cosmo. Nine years later, my tastes have graduated to dirty martinis. The drinks are never a letdown. The bartenders are nice (even though it's a bit painful to watch drunk dudes awkwardly hitting on with them - hey, is this still a lesbian bar or did I miss something?).
(4)Andy W.
Goosed isn't a place I'm at *every week, but if I'm in the neighborhood it always deserves a visit. Classic South Grand gin joint, er, vodka ... well they serve it all, and the menu is massive. I can speak for their traditional & French cosmos - steady hand with the basics. The place is on its third owner(s) - one of the early bartenders bought it after a period of drift under new management. Staff are friendly and the space is fun, if smallish. They allow smoking :( but that should go out with the ban in 2011. Or here's hoping...
(4)Jen J.
pumpkin pie martini and spiked cider are delicious! The other patrons are unassuming and the vibe is laid back. I am sold ! Baby hit me one more time! Even the boys admitted they liked the drinks and thats saying a lot
(4)Christian K.
Clearly, Absoluteli Goosed was not designed with me in mind. We tried out the bar a few months back when a friend of ours had a gift certificate. Back then, I wasn't particularly a fan. On Friday night, we were summoned to AG for a night of pricey drinks and poor service. For the thrifty patron who has a budget and likes value, AG is not the place to go. However, I was impressed with the bucket deal that they were offering on a Friday night. They had $12 buckets of AB products, which was very surprising. However, we more than made up for it with the martinis. I bought a round of Buds and one specialty cocktail, and we still spent over $22 before tip! Okay. So one cocktail is worth almost one bucket of six beer?! Needless to day, I was very displeased with the tab. Bill aside, the true issue was with the service. We had a group of eight and spent nearly two hours there. I had no idea who our server was. The bartender came over a few times to check on us, and my wife kept saying that she wasn't our waitress. Apparently, our waitress was standing around most of the time. I'm sorry, but this table is potentially a $20-$40 tip table (I know my friends. They're not cheap). Where on earth is our waitress? Also, the place was not even moderately busy. The bartender brought me my tab, and I walked it back to her a half hour later. And could they put a TV somewhere? I realize that AG is meant to be upscale and trendy, but I assume that they could afford one freakin' flatscreen. I went in during the Cardinals game and had to keep checking my phone for the score, which I had plenty of time to do while waiting for someone to take my debit card.
(2)Kristie F.
A great place to have drinks with friends. It's a nicer atmosphere, definitely more upscale bar feel. The drinks are pricey which fits with that. They do have some good specials nights, however. There drinks are very strong, which also helps to explain the prices. There's great variety and the environment is nice.
(4)Jean P.
Another fabulous evening at Goosed! A couple of friends, my husband, and myself ventured here on Saturday night hoping to catch up on the fun while the Travel Channel was filming for a Best of episode. I love Goosed, and I love the Travel Channel - what else is a girl to do? Through my own ordering and sipping off my friends' drinks, I had the opportunity to try many a martini - Ultimate Chocolate (OMG!), French Cosmo, Coffee and Doughnuts, Robin Swallows, Dixie Normous, Cream Moose, Sassy Apple, Strawberry Mango Delight, some sort of berry Gimlet, among others that I just can't remember. Goosed is consistently fantastic. I haven't had a bad martini there. Sure, there are some I like more - to each his own - but knowing we all have our different choices in martinis, they are fab! Though service seemed a little lax, I chalk it up to a little insanity due to the Travel Channel taping. I've been there enough to know that their service is always top notch. And they are part of the Saint Louis Originals program. Sweet!

I broke my Absolutli Goosed cherry tonight. It only took 4+ years! Years ago, when I would visit one of my best friends in St. Louis (she has since moved away), we would come out of Pho Grand, and she would always invariably be like, "We have to go to Absolutli Goosed. I hear it's really good." And this is a girl who takes Coke shots when we go out. But alas, we never went because we always were headed to somewhere else. But Mandie M. had the bright idea of having a girls' night here, and I totally jumped at the idea. And it was fabulous. Although I didn't order a drink myself (I know, I know...but I was still feeling the effects of ITap), I tried all of their drinks...and yes, it was good. I think I like the drinks because they are strong...but they don't taste slimy, as alcoholic drinks can taste if you're not mixing them right. The drinks are all unique and creative. The girls ordered a wide spectrum of drinks, so I got to try everything from the fruity spectrum to the creamy spectrum to the chocolate spectrum. My favorite on the menu was pretty much the pink coconut cosmo, which is coconut rum, triple sec, white grape juice, cranberry juice, and cream. I'm writing it all out because one day I hope to replicate it at home...but it's also so I can remember to order it next time I'm here. Also, Sam made Mandie this incredible strawberry-banana margarita...THAT's what I'm also going to order too...yep, this girl is going to be double-fisting it. Service is very friendly, and all the customers were really friendly too...it has such a great vibe to the place! And I love how every day they have specials, especially with Martini Mondays, 911 Tuesdays, Rita Thursdays, Cosmic Fridays, and Pure Decadence Saturdays. It makes the pretty reasonable prices just even more reasonable. And appetizers are 1/2 off from 4-7. How much better can that get? OH...well, it does...because the girls, once they checked in...got us free chips and salsa! They were really good too!

One of my fave martini bars...this is the one you wanna take the mistress to, not the Mrs...unless of course you're into that role playing stuff...yep tell the wifey to put on a sexy trench and heels and meet you at the bar! Game on!!! Wow, did I just open my review with a Cinemax After Dark scene!? Well that's that kind of place this is...dark, sexy and ready to get you liquored up and make you talk dirty! Especially if you order a drink from the "Women of Bond and Powers" list like the "Ivana Humpalot" or the "Dixie Normous" or the "Fook Mi-Fook Yu"...and oh yes, they make you say it...WARNING - do not try to point at the menu to get one of these drinks...they will act suddenly blind, they will lean in to hear you as you try to whisper your order or skip the vowels...they WILL make you say IT! My favorite martini there is the Happy Nutz...tastes just like an Almond Joy Bar with a kick! A perfect Saturday evening is set-off by dining across the street at Cafe Mochi for their 1/2 price Sushi Happy Hour (starts at 4:30) and then skip right on over to the Goose for their Pure Decadence Happy Hour (4-7). Love this place and all it's kinky glory! Oh yeah, shout out to Samantha...she's the best! Super cool, gorgeous and shakes up a puts out a mean martini! *Martin Voice* ""You go Girl!!"

This place rocks! After the Yelp event on Monday, I decided to go back here to try some drinks without the crazy crowd. So I went to Cafe Mochi for dinner and then after that decided to hit up Absolutli Goosed. It was a Tuesday evening, around 5pm or so. The whole place was dead! (And yes, returning the day after the Yelp event....I am sooo cool, aren't I? :P) I was the only person in the entire bar. lol. But the bartender, Samantha, made me feel welcome! I tried the Pussy Galore drink which was so tasty! Whipped cream along the rim and white chocolate and raspberry in the drink. Unfff. Then I followed up with a Pink Panther (I am guessing they call it P Panther now because of copyright issues??) and it was as good as I remembered from the night before. Samantha was fun to talk with and she was super sweet and great at making drinks. I commended her speedy skills the night prior when the bar was swamped with eager Yelpers. I would definitely return to Goosed, but probably with people who actually drink, so as not to make Sean uncomfortable/bored.

What an Absolutli great night I had while visiting. I arrived and found rock-star parking right out front! Score! When I entered the bar I was kindly greeted by not only the bartender(s) but by the patrons well! I automatically fell in love with this place and the atmosphere was just what I was looking for! I had to look over the menu to see what I actually wanted to drink. I love martinis and enjoy trying new items. I finally decided on the banana chocolate martini (of course)! It was dark, rich, and delicious! When my friend and I sat at the table I was able to check-in and I redeemed the Check-In offer "Free Chips and Salsa". Score, again! What a great night this has turned into. We had some great conversation at our table and the best part was that as other customers were passing by they said "hello" and even complimented our table for being "beautiful"; YES that was just what I needed to hear. I made friends (well sort of) with the table next to us and inquired about the "pink" drink the girl had...it was something with coconut milk...YUM! I went to order that drink as my second of the night. Again, the bartender was awesome and made it just right. Of course, I began to chat with some of the other bar customers and they recommended I try the margaritas next...ummmm I'm at a martini bar, but I guess I can try one later. I went back to the table and passed around my pink drink, it was approved by all members of the table. It also went down pretty quickly and so I was in need of my last and final drink of the night; I decided to try the strawberry-banana martini! It was perfect and just what I needed! I know where to go when I need a margarita! Towards the end of the night and end of the conversation I was ready to get my tab...and because this was a Wednesday night I was able to receive 10% off for being an educator! WINNING! I love deals. First I got free chips and then I got another 10% off! I will be back again. This is a great bar on South Grand and not only are the bartenders awesome, the other "regulars" are as well. I felt like I belonged there.
(4)Andy L.
Best mixed drinks in STL, bar none (pardon the pun). Best drink: Pussy Galore. Their drink list is extensive. Drink styles to satisfy everyone. The atmosphere is just ok, but the drinks are the best.
(5)Tracey W.
This is the best bar on South Grand. It's casual, but upscale for South Grand. If you insist on tasting only sugar and not alcohol when you drink alcohol, their menu will give you a tiny orgasm. If you are a cheap bastard like me, your bill will give you a tiny heart attack, but whatever. You can get a PBR anywhere, and that's what the rest of the bars on South Grand are for. I always have fun when we come here. Really good people, comfortable, great service, and honestly, I'm embarrassed to admit it, but their freaking martinis/cosmos are good. If you ever see me drinking one of these, please just shoot me right then and there, though. I'm still waiting to get absolutely goosed here. Instead of turning into an episode of "Sex and the City" my night usually turns into an episode of "I Live Alone with My Cat and the City".
(4)Kristie A.
Three words...pumpkin pie martini. So good. Want to marry it. Thanks to the Yelp app we decided to try this place out. If the name alone didn't get us, the red walls with black furniture surely did. We tried the hummus plate and it good. It came with warm pita bread and sliced cucumbers. The bartender wasn't the friendliest, but she kept the drinks coming, and that's all I can really ask for. I also tried the chocolate covered cherry martini and the three musketeers one. The pumpkin pie one is my favorite and it was the most costly one, of course, at $8.50 a piece. The place was pretty dead around 5pm on a Saturday, but was picking up when we left around 6. I wish we would have had more time to hang out, although my wallet thanked me for leaving after three drinks.
(4)Steven B.
Brad and I meet up with Mary Kate A here for a Martini and gab session. I was pleased to see this place is still amazing after all these years. It is a small charming neighborhood bar that serves a quality Martini or Cosmopolitan. I am sure they offer typical bar drinks, but i don't know why you'd order them when the Martini's are creative, go down oh so well and are reasonably priced. I think this is the great place to go with friend(s) to to relax and have a quality "cocktail". Our bartender was charming, cute and attentive to our alcoholic needs. I'll be back.
(4)Jen M.
Went here last night for the first time. Parking is horrible but so is everything on South Grand. The place is smaller than I expected but it was quaint. They had a really good selection of martinis as that's what they are known for but the service wasn't very good. Even though we were at a table with a server we still had to go back up the bar to get drinks and cash out. I may consider going back another time, strictly for the martinis. I will probably sit AT the bar next time.
(3)Jennifer W.
If you love martinis like I do, this is a best place in the Lou. They have such a wide variety, even non martini drinkers love this place. The atmosphere, vibe and decor all score big with me, I only wish it was a tad bigger!
(4)Sarah G.
It was 11:30pm and my friend and I wanted to get some higher quality libations before heading to the Grove for some dancing. We stopped by and had some cocktails and I am glad we did. There were several pages of cocktails to choose from, many of them surprisingly inventive. I could probably come here once a week and not get bored. My drink consisted of Bombay sapphire, grand marnier, lemon, and orange juice. It was perfectly balanced, not overly sweet and not overly strong in taste (though, one definitely got the job done!) After finishing our cocktails, we were off to the dance club, and did not have to waste any time or money on Well drinks! It was $12 well spent, and included complimentary chips and salsa with the Yelp check-in. I didn't have to reach into my wallet again for the rest of the night. I wish there was a place like this back home!
(4)Stan G.
This was my first experience not only being in a martini bar, but also a first martini. I was surprised at how many different ones there were to choose from, I was always under the impression that Martini's were bland social sipping drinks, boy was I proved wrong with this excursion. My choice of a Martini (yes I only had one) was called Caramel Apple, it had vodka and apple sour schnapps, and a caramel rim on the glass. omg was it delicious! I sampled tastes of friends choices, there was a mango strawberry one, one called a Sassy Apple, a BB in drag (bugs bunny) Bitch & Mona, and one really delicious one called Stacy's Tea which I believe I will be having one of those the next time I return to this fin establishment. The Bar has been around for quite a while, however the previous owners earned it a bad reputation for a short while before it was closed and reopened. since then all I have heard about it rave reviews, and after spending a couple of hours there I am now convinced I too am a fan! The bartenders were super nice, and the wait times on the drinks was minimal even considering the large crowd that was in attendance. don't worry, if your not a martini fan there are other delicious concoctions available, and they also have a full regular bar with soda beer and liquor, but really, why would you have an ordinary drink when you can have something fantastic... Do yourself a favor and check out Absolutli Goosed you will be so glad you did..
(5)Snarky R.
Great place to drink with friends on South Grand! Certainly not for the light of wallet patrons, because it's very pricey, but the drinks have always impressed me. Last night, they had a special "pumpkin spice martini" and WHOA, it was well worth the $7 charge. Very heavy alcohol that got my head spinning after a few, but delicious and with whipped cream on top. Also had the edamame appetizer, and they give you more than enough to share (even though you may not want to). They have a ton of martini options, from sweet to sour to salty to dry, and everything I've ever had there has been expertly concocted. It's never too loud inside, even if the place is full, and the bartenders are always very welcoming and never overbearing (they understand if you only want to sip a drink and chat with your friends). Love this place and would go there again in a heartbeat!
(5)Jonina S.
Went here on a Friday evening with the "girls". It is a great place to have a drink with the girls for some talk time and great drinks. We had the hummus, veggies, & pita bread, garlic bread & marinara sauce, and chips & salsa with our drinks. They were all great tasting appetizers. I wish I remembered what I had because it was great. Believe it or not, I just could not remember because I was side tracked by the waitresses question on whether I wanted my martini thick or liquidy...that was just weird but I understood why. I remember it tasting like a lollipop, pink, liquidy, and tasted better cold...meaning don't let it sit or you will take the alcohol. We sat outside on "the patio" which is on the side of the building. It's dimly lit and gated. Service was great. She was attentive and personable. She was able to give suggest drinks when we asked. The interior is nice...dimly lit and clean. Because it was a nice night (considering it is August) most were sitting outside on the patio. Oh beware of the menu...it can be intimidating because of the numerous drinks. Ask the waitress for help otherwise you may not find a drink.

I've been to this fun spot a few times. Though the speed dating events I attended here weren't successful in getting me an awesome man, I found a great venue! Winning. When Aimee set-up the Yelp Drinks week kick-off party here, I was thrilled... until I found out the size of the event. 80 people in the small establishment? Yikes! Absolutli Goosed is a lot of things, but large isn't one of them. Goosed generously allowed us all to choose two drinks off of the "Goosed Fan Favorites" list, and I was completely impressed with most of the drinks. I sampled the Bugs Bunny in Drag, Blue Ocean, Bitch'n Mona, and the Staci's Tea. I ordered the Banana Hammock, Pink Panther, and the Peachy Keen. I wasn't so much a fan of the Banana Hammock... the banana was almost too subtle... It tasted a little too much of cream and cinnamon/nutmeg. It was a little boring for me. The Pink Panther tasted like a delightful glass of adult Red Vines. It was sweet and girly and fun. The Peachy Keen tasted like a super sweet peach with a chocolate infusion. I loved it so much, that I had two. On a Monday night, 4 martini's is too much, but I had such a great time and couldn't resist. What a fun night out. I can't wait to get back for more. YUMMY Drinking!
(4)Janika H.
So much to choose from so little time to drink it all. Top choice to drink. Plenty of choices, laid back atmosphere, good bar appetizers. Never disappoints me. I travel to different cities and have found none comparable to this bar.
(5)Laura Z.
I used to go to this bar alot when it first opened years ago, I went back again several months ago and was shocked at how expensive the drinks had become. The drinks are very good though, but it almost has to be a special occasion to spend this much on a cocktail. The patio arrangement is kind of strange on the side of the entire building which given the location is the only place it could be, so its better than no patio. I went for the yelp party and all of the martinis I got were very good, but I did wake up with a pretty good hangover even though I only had three so they don't necessarily mix well, but they are strong, I had a very good buzz going when I left.
(4)Shawnieka B.
Awesome drinks
(4)Mary Kate M.
Every time I go here, I always find myself getting into trouble. Not the bad kind of trouble, but "a great night where I didn't bust my wallet but still got the job done" type of trouble. Honestly one of my favorite martini bars next to Bailey's Chocolate Bar.... but on a different level. Their prices are not steep, and they make their drinks strong, but not overdone. The service is prompt, knowledgeable, and honestly down right know how to fix a great martini. A few of my girlfriends and I will go here after work to enjoy the happy hour. Oh... and it is HAPPY! Their food isn't bad either. It is a wide variety of different things. On occasion if you are looking for love, they host a speed dating event here almost weekly through. Date n Dash. My girls and I came to that one time for the giggles. It was a fun experience. The martinis made it better. lol The scene is catering to all sorts. Straight? Gay? Who cares! This is perfect for all! This is definitely the 'Sex and the City' version of St. Louis.
(4)Briana S.
These martinis will get you feeling Loosey Goosey, that's no lie! When we came here for a big event I was ecstatic-- one of those places on my list that I hadn't quite gotten around to. Inside is close quarters but not overly crammed. All in all, you're here for the martini menu and to socialize, so it's just the right amount of space for chatting up your pals. I had two drinks: The P Panther and the Sassy Apple Martinis. The Sassy Apple was Super Sour, which I didn't mind, but after tasting the P Panther--it was a done deal. That was one terrific martini. They are strong and you get a bang for your buck. The bartenders here definitely know what they are doing and they stay calm, collected, and cheerful even when there's upwards of sixty people vying for their drink wielding attention. The little patio next to the venue is adorable and nice for those midsummer nights (especially when there's a DJ!) This place is a great time and has some seriously satisfying selections!

Hello Martini! Wednesday was my Birthday and it had to start off with a cocktail or two or three. The hubby and I use to frequent this place a lot when we were dating, it's a great low key place with awesome martini's. The names of some of the martini's are enough to break the ice especially on a first date =) We had a dinner reservation was for later in the evening so we took full advantage of their half priced happy hour app's from 4-7pm. The hummus platter was $4 and was a nice sized portion, not too big and not too small...just enough to tied us over till dinner. The martinis here are exceptional! Their happy hour specials have changed a bit since we were last in and the Wednesday special was faculty night, 20% off for teachers, professors, etc, so no happy hour drinks specials for me. But that didn't stop me from ordering more than one. I started with the Peachy Keen, think chocolate covered peaches and cranberries. A mix of Cranberri Vodka, peach Schnapps and White Creme de Cacao served in a chocolate rimmed glass. So sweet and smooth! My second martini was their Dixie Normous. Try ordering that without blushing! A creamy chocolate and banana liquor treat. It is seriously one I could slam like a milkshake. My final martini was their Coffee and Doughnuts. A caramel-y coffee cocktail rimmed with caramel sauce. Another sweet treat. I almost had to be carried out to dinner. I love this place. I have never order a martini I didn't like, but I love martini's a lot...so I think that makes me bias, especially when under the influence of one or two or three.

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, Absolutli Goosed used to be THE gay hotspot on South Grand. Being a gay, I like to frequent establishments that correspond with my "lifestyle" choices. So when I first visited AG a few months ago, and saw tables full of loud, straight suburbanite couples splayed out in their Cardinal gear and stretchy denim, my heart did a little dip. C'mon, folks. Can't you go over to Hotshots or something? However, having a decent bar within minutes of my house that's not full of hipsters swilling PBR out of cans is hard to find. So Goosed is my cocktail place of choice. The service is outstanding. The drinks, while a little on the sweet side, are icy cold and decently priced. And if you don't want a "fancy" drink, for God's sake, man up and order a bourbon neat or a plain ol' martini. Update: apparently the gays come out in the warmer months, because the patio is crowded with both fabulousness and sensible shoes.
(3)Heather D.
Fun go to place on S. Grand - crowd is always fun mix of casual & electric, plus you'll see allot of familiar faces if you go stop in on any sort of regular basis. The drink menu itself, is hysterical with many umm (racy let's say) named martini's. There is definitely something here for everyone and if a martini isn't your style, they have a selection of beer as well. Fav. bartender Sam, is always a riot, makes you feel right at home and is great @ coming up with all sorts of concoctions to get you 1/2 way to three-sheets-to-the wind-ville! Thursday happens to be one of my favorite days for specials, because it's $5 Bloody Mary, Long Island Iced Tea (not made with a mix) & Margarita's. I can't get enough of the "Nothin' But Heat Mary" made with Sriracha & habenero stuffed olives, so give this one a try if you like the spicy stuff, plus at $5, it's a steal!! There are a few tables out front an an entire side patio for enjoyment when the weather's nice. Check this place out for sure!
(5)Pamela R.
Perfect martinis can be found at the corner of Grand and Wyoming. Done. Absoluti Goosed has been a fav of mine for years and with a list of martinis that rivals, well, my ability to drink them. The Women of Bond selections are delightful or keep it simple with a dirty martini. Prices are reasonable, service is quick and there is indoor and outdoor seating. Bottoms up, people!
(4)Harper Z.
Just okay. If you need a place to come and get a fancy cocktail then this is your place. Do not expect great service, but if you are coming in for one drink and then moving on this would be a good place to start.
(2)Abby S.
If you like chocolate martinis, order the Halle Berry. Stoli Strasberi, White Crème de Cacao, with 2 Hershey's Kisses. Basically a lot of boozy goodness with candy! Wow! That and the Caramello were exactly what I needed last night. I want to make Absolutli Goosed my new Thursday night drinking spot!
(4)Dave F.
Straight up martini bar with twist on Thursday serving $5 pick your flavor (i.e. raspberry) Long Islands (I got girlie drink drunk with a MMA punch youtube.com/watch?v=HlYJ… ), "ToKillYa" Margaritas & Bloody Mary's... The combo just reads like and is trouble ;-)
(4)Jenny P.
WARNING: Do not come here hungry! However, the martini's are pretty good. Our group made the mistake of coming here without looking up the menu online. When we arrived hoping to order food, we found that they have a very limited appetizer menu and that's it. The spinach and artichoke dip was amazing, but unfortunately our group of 5 had every app on the menu and 1 drink a piece and had to leave because we were in search of a real dinner. Despite our coming before and not after dinner mistake, the martini's here are pretty tasty. I will say I would like to make a trip back to taste more of them. My only complaint about the drinks is that they are all very fruity and sugary. I like to taste the vodka in my martini and there was no chance of that happening here without ordering a double (which would probably ruin their concoction) or just getting a plain old fashioned martini. I even asked the bartender which selections had a stronger taste, but the one she suggested was still too sweet. Maybe I am just too picky, but I was just not that impressed. Some good news is that they have alternate liquor selections besides vodka. They make margaritas, bloody mary's etc. My date had a spicy bloody mary (I forget the specific name) and he LOVED it. Also, be sure to check their website for specials as we arrived on a Tuesday night and they had a special for emergency responders which included nurses! YAY for getting 20% off my tab! I really wanted to like Absolutli Goosed, so I will probably come back with friends for a girls night and give them another shot. The place also smelled like sewage that night so we sat at a table outside. Maybe it was just a bad night...
(3)Riana Elizabeth E.
Samantha is a super friendly, knowledgable (pretty) bartender! Get the "Happy Nutz" martini - tastes just like an Almond Joy. Also, one of the few bars with hand-stuffed blue cheese olives; most use the vinegary pre-bottled ones in brine.
(4)Kate W.
I'm not sure if we were here on an off night, or if it was just not my scene, but this bar did not wow me. I came on a Thursday night with five friends, and luckily there were a couple tables that opened up just as we walked in. After we sat down a waitress came over promptly and helped us figure out that crazy extensive menu. We had a variety of drinks, including some fancy martinis and bloody marys, all of which were good, but not life changing. Actually, that's pretty much my entire impression of this bar. I would come back if I were near by, I would probably enjoy myself, but I would never go out of my way to come back. The definition of a three star review!
(3)Johanna C.
I found this place confusing, the music, the clientele, the atmosphere all very mishmashed. Maybe I should try one of the martinis next time for the real experience.
(3)Stephanie S.
How I ended up at Absolutli Goosed on a Monday night: Christine F.: STEPH WHAT ARE YOU UP TO I WANNA HANG OUT Me: LET'S DO SOMETHING NAOOOO Yeah, we're 12. Anyway, Christine suggested hitting up Absolutli Goosed for some drinks and catching up, and I agreed. Obviously. We arrived around 8:30 on a Monday night, and other than a handful of others at the bar, it was pretty quiet. The place itself is super cute. Lots of high top tables and plenty of seating at the bar. Our waitress was super friendly and was patient as I pored over the menu. I eventually settled with the 'Happy Nutz' martini, which had coconut rum, some sort of hazelnut liqueur, and I'm sure a few other things. Oh, and it had whipped cream. I love whipped cream, and I'm pretty sure that's what sold me on the drink. It was delicious, and it went down so easily! I had a sip of Christine's chocolate martini, and that was tasty as well. SO much better than Bailey's Chocolate Bar's attempt at a Chocolate Martini. We munched on some edamame (yum) and spinach and artichoke dip (yum) as well. Next, I decided to be adventurous and try a 'real' martini. While I've had plenty of fruity/chocolately martinis, I've never had an authentic one, and what better place to give it a try than at Absolutli Goosed? The waitress explained the different varieties (dry, sweet, etc.) and gave a mini lesson on dry vermouth that totally confused me, but it was interesting nonetheless. I went with a dirty martini using Blue Sapphire Gin and chose an anchovy stuffed olive as my garnish. Gahhh I love anchovies and olives. Well...the olives were good, but I don't think dirty martinis are my thing. I had a few sips before I gave up. At least I tried! I could definitely see myself coming back to Absolutli Goosed. There were so many other delicious sounding martinis that I want to try! I'll just stay away from the 'real' ones in the future.
(5)Byanka S.
Only reviewing on drinks and service. For the price of the drinks, I expected a little more alcohol in them. I forgot what I had, but it was still good. A little on the sweet side. I like strong drinks (my personal preference). :) However, one of the bartenders was really nice. There weren't that many people there, and I am the type that enjoys a smaller crowd. Let's you chit-chat with everyone in there. And if I ever have a Wednesday off, I'll be there Tuesday night to get my 20% discount for being a nurse. That's awesome. I'll be back again.
(4)Cara B.
Love Goosed! Their drink menu is huge! Makes it pretty difficult to choose, but also provides something for everyone, which is great. It can get pretty noisy inside, but it's a bar, so what do you expect? It can make ordering a bit tricky sometimes, but the delicious drinks make up for it. Aside from that, the atmosphere is cool and it's just a great place to hang and sip some 'tinis!
(5)Stephanie B.
There isn't much I can add to the 40+ reviews, but I advise you to talk to the bartender or server to help you with your drink choice as the menu is really overwhelming. I almost gave up and just went for a boring dirty martini, but instead tried some pineapple upside down cake concoction that blew my mind.
(4)Josh S.
We stopped in here Saturday night about 7:30 after dinner. If there was ever something that made me feel old, it was being the only two people in a bar at 7:30 on a Saturday. All the old jokes aside, we took a seat at the bar and started looking at the extensive drink menu. After about five minutes I came to the conclusion that there was no way I was going to be able to make a decision on something from the menu. It was a sensory overload, of the truly good kind. In the end I passed on one of the many delicious sounding cocktails and went with a Manhattan. About an hour later when we were settling our tab, there were about a dozen people in the place which helped to make me not feel soo old. If we come back I will be more adventurous and try something off the menu.
(4)Jen O.
Love, love, love this bar! No shortage of excellent beverages. These are not your typical bar martinis. From the flavors of each drink to their names, the menu is superbly thought out. Bartender, staff and guests are all friendly. Highly recommend for girls night out!
(5)monica c.
Delicious martinis and long island iced teas. In a bazillon flavors and styles. I'm more of a classic girl, but if you like pineapple-infused, vanilla-scented goodness, then you should definitely get your tush over here. Annnd they have friggin awesome specials. Any place that has a drink special for teachers sends little warm fuzzies down my spine. They just know us so well. It's been a while since I've been back, but this was definitely one of my favorite cocktail bars when I lived in St. Louis. And I'm pretty sure it still will be when I come back.
(3)Philip D.
Great neighborhood martini bar with one of the best interiors on S. Grand! Sam makes great cocktails and the owners are awesome. Try the St. Germain Cocktail and the "Simply The Best" Margarita!
(5)Stephen H.
Decent bar to get away to or to pregame at before eating on South Grand. Cosy, intimate, not trendy and knows it. Decent bar service.
(3)Emily R.
I wish I liked this place better. Decor and ambiance are OK. I'm just not a fan of their drinks. They are way too sweet and contrived for my tastes. Martinis should not be bright blue or remind me of MD 20/20. If you're a fan of classic cocktails or retro cocktails go elsewhere. On one visit my friend ordered a Manhattan, and it was awful - the bartender didn't make it properly. Service is so-so.
(3)Will F.
Fantastic. I finally made it in here for the first time this week. I was drawn by Martini Mondays, when all drinks served in martini or cosmo glasses are $5, regardless of brand. Anywhere there's a bargain bin evening, I'll be there. Great drinks, though! This bartender knows a dirty martini. Their bleu cheese stuffed olives are sensational. I'll be back.
