Wente's Grill - Chesterfield

People here are amazing, the atmosphere here is incredible, and literally this place has saved my holiness so often last year. I don't know what I would do without Marla and Ben and Rochelle Keaton and Shelly and Lexi and all my favorite people down here. I have come here for many years when the new owners were in business, and they have done nothing but wonderful things to keep the name of Wentes flourishing and alive. Stop it!

The service was excellent, the food was hot. Kristen was on top of everything we needed even when she had multiple tables to attend to three of which were six tops or more. I highly recommend this place for anyone. You won't be disappointed. Did I mention that they have the best food ever!

Great service. We had a large party during a busy time and servers were still very attentive. Foods pretty good for what you'd expect from a diner and very affordable.

I had been coming here for 2-3 years and for all that time this would have been and EASY 5 Star review as it was a hidden gem, existing inconspicuously outside of the glitzy The Valley spotlight. Simple, unassuming, good food and decent people of all walks of life. Many a deep, honest conversation about any range of topics could be had here. And, I certainly appreciate them for staying open during shutdown and preserving a sense of normality against the rest of the world 's insanity. Unfortunately, it appears with new ownership that this establishment has The Valley splashing all over it. Over the past 6-12months, the staff has turned over and a lot of the old favorites are gone. I barely recognize the crowd, too as it seems to have been replaced with one that is plastic and shallow, consumed by greed Worst of all, I literally can no longer afford to eat/drink here. Perhaps that 's by design and a feature not a bug as it helps to get the right crowd into a place. It 's hard not to realize I 'm part of the crowd they no longer want there. So be it... I can 't say I 'll never go back...if a friend invited me there, I 'd meet them for a meal. But, this has become a very occasional place out of necessity. So, I guess 2 stars (with a little positive weight for past enjoyment) *seems* about right. What a damn shame!

Love the food the staff is great my favorite is lexi she has a great attitude towards me and makes me feel like I should stay longer. The bartenders iv had make my drinks are very good at there job. .but the real reason I keep coming in is lexi ..... best waitress around she is a asset to your customers I will keep coming the three days I do because of her!
