The Scene – An intimate, relaxed atmosphere and highly knowledgeable staff welcome diners to this sophisticated food-lovers' paradise.

Best New Chef (possibly in the U.S.)
by robmurtha at Citysearch
Good friends, and world-class foodies, introduced my wife and me to this wonderful treasure, surprisingly found in Maplewood, MO. We've recently moved to St Louis from New York, and Arthur Clay's food blows away most places in NYC!
The tomato gazpacho left my palate screaming for MORE!!! The halibut and mahi mahi was so fresh and wonderful you'd have thought we lived by the ocean. Each served in nice sized portions. The creativity of the menu is amazing, sometimes mixing oatmeal and foie gras! Oh! Dessert... we enjoyed some of the finest ice cream imaginable, and the Gooey Butter Cake... divine!
The sommelier knows his stuff. The chef stopped by our table. He is quite modest and gives much credit to his kitchen staff. His wife is sweet and makes great sweets (she's the pastry chef)! And the wait staff is attentive, knowledgeable and friendly, never stuffy nor overbearing!
