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.

I went to Dressel's last night because I have been there before and wanted to try it again. First of all parking is very hard to find but I expected that because of where they are located. The atmosphere is neat and the people there are very friendly. Normally at places that I have gone to the "specials" are resonably priced so me and my boyfriend weren't to concerened about this. They read the specials to you so they are not in a menu and there is no price. When we got the bill his was $14 and mine was $12. The food itself was good but not great. If I'm spending this kind of money I want to walk out saying, " wow, that was great"! Overall, we had a good experience but I was just a little bothered by the prices.

Pros: The place is neat and the people are friendly

Cons: The parking is bad and the food is pricey

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

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.

Just what a Welsh pub should be--smoky, noisy and comfortable.  See the full editorial review.
