Editorial Review for Dressel's – by Melissa Martin
The Scene
On any given night, you might find a bespectacled philosophy professor earnestly deconstructing Descartes with a grad assistant, or a table of bleary-eyed Washington University students unwinding after exams. It's so laid-back that the menu admonishes patrons to refrain from putting their feet on the chairs and banquettes.
The Food
After ordering a basket of Bavarian potato chips, the best menu items to choose from are the stews and meat pies. The Cornish meat pie is a big, satisfying wedge of golden pastry filled with chunks of beef, potatoes and vegetables (vegetarians can order it sans beef). The stockpot special changes daily, but some favorites are Hungarian goulash, Creole beef stew and red beans and rice. Manhattan and New England clam chowders are available on alternating weeks.

Fron the caricatures and portraits of authors and poets lining the walls to the extensive menu of beers and whiskeys, everything about Dressel's says this is a place to get seriously laidback. Food is good, though not the main attraction. Old school bartenders with attitude go a long way towards making the place.
