Description: Since 1937, once nestled in the middle of cornfields stands the Smokehouse Market. An unpretentious structure, reminiscent of its days as the market for the surrounding Chesterfield area. The store now houses one of St. Louis's most celebrated restaurants, Annie Gunn's. Within its walls, Chef Lou Rook, III works his magic, creating irresistible cuisine with a sophisticated country life accent. In keeping with the concept of "Foods and wines inspired by the richness of country life", Chef Rook uses the best ingredients and the traditions that are most appropriate to them and imbues them with his own talented creative spin within the rhythm of the seasons. Annie Gunn's boasts an award-winning wine list as well.

While some might view this as just another flash pub, the quality of steaks and the service here west of St Louis, would support the great recommendation for Annie`s from our concierge as a restaurant to try. We were not disappointed.

We went for Mother's Day as a special treat. We didn't realize how expensive it was but we decided to splurge and it was worth it. The food was excellent from the starters to the dessert. The family style seafood was delicious, order extra scallops. The scallops were one of the best things we had. Grilled meatloaf was a little... More

First time. Great experience! Ate at the bar. The bartender was a pistol - she was feisty, knowledgeable, and a sense of humor. Recommended an excellent red. The smoked shrimp appetizers amazing. The lamb chops were outstanding! The unique potato side was equally tasty. High marks for the food! Higher marks for the service at the bar!!

The restaurant itself is very dark and the bar area which all of the tables surround was very noisy. The food was very good but also very expensive

My husband and I enjoyed the atmosphere and the service. The bartender made one of the best martinis I've ever had. Our appetizer of andouille and lump crab cakes was good. Our entrees were quite disappointing. The filet was tasteless and was served undercooked. Sent back but really, you can't reheat a filet and expect it to be good. The... More

I eat at this place every time I go to St. Louis, and I have never been disappointed. You'll need a reservation, because it's always packed. The service is excellent, and the food is superb. Last night I had the muskovy duck breast and it was perfectly cooked, tender and delicious. My family had a NY strip steak (cooked to... More

I dine here frequently for business lunches. Annie Gunn's is always busy so you should have a reservation. Food quality is excellent, and they always have new and innovative items on the menu. Service is impeccable. I have never had a bad meal here. Even when I've ordered items I wasn't sure I would like or wasn't very familiar with,... More
