Billy’s on Broadway Restaurant Opened on June 23rd
Billy’s on Broadway Restaurant Opened on June 23rd, 2023 - Billy’s on Broadway is a new restaurant/bar in an architectural facility that has created a destination rather than a restaurant or bar.

ST LOUIS, MO (StLouisRestaurantReview) What was once an abandoned building (since 2019) for approximately four years has been recreated with a new modern vision but recaptures the historical feel that blesses the community but frequently goes overlooked.

It requires vision, courage, experience, and a lot of money to step out of the box to do what these partners have done.  They have saved a piece of history to a building that dates back to at least 1890 but recreated it to provide modern conveniences in the historical, sporty, classy style that most competitors can only dream of.

There was consideration for demolition of the building, but they made the right decision to restore and recreate a bar dating back to its beginning based on the information they have found.

An architectural publication should be writing about this place rather than food magazines because the results of the renovation and expansion are overwhelmingly impressive and done professionally.  This project was not created on a small budget.  The renovation cost will not be disclosed, but they spared no expense to do the project and do it right.

This establishment is not just a bar/restaurant but a destination like Brett Hull’s Junction House in Wentzville or Ballpark Village.  Ballpark Village is the largest, but only Billy’s on Broadway and Brett Hull’s can be classified as these places.

We had the honor to meet with Billy Roe, one of the partners, and the name on the front of the building.  The other two partners are David and Brett Apted.

There are multiple bars inside and outside, with a seating capacity of approximately 400 patrons in this historical atmosphere spreading across 6,000 square feet.  One of the bars is a rooftop bar with a beautiful panoramic view of the Cardinals Stadium and an elevated view of the stage that their entertainers will use.

The main bar at the front of the building is the original bar that dates back to 1890 that they restored, which turned out to be beautiful.

While they sincerely desire to create a great bar and restaurant establishment, the most impressive emotion I witnessed was Mr. Roes's love and passion for the facility.  The owners get that they are doing more than starting a new business. They are leveraging a piece of history to amplify their business model and illustrate an unprecedented amount of ownership pride while preserving some history.  Old buildings are often demolished and forgotten because the idea that a new building is cheaper is only easier.  It requires a lot of thought and planning to preserve, but it is only sometimes the most cost-effective.  Moreover, it is impossible to re-create history in a new facility. It’s just not possible!

It is located one block south of the Cardinals Stadium and across the street from Broadway Oyster Bar, which was a smart move.

Considering the location, the history of the building, the menu, the food, and the business model they are creating, this will be one of the most successful restaurant/bar ventures launched in the St. Louis region.  It is a restaurant, bar, music, and entertainment venue in the perfect location with an excellent view in a historical environment that will become a primary destination in the region.

We can’t express our sincere appreciation for the opportunity to meet with Mr. Roe and get the information he graciously shared with us.  Truthfully, the amount of information goes beyond the scope of an article, and we hope this is the beginning of what needs to be a series of articles to project the image this place and these investors deserve.  We recommend and will support this establishment to help ensure its success.

They opened on June 23, 2023, so many revisions and decisions are still being made.

(StLouisRestaurantReview) Traveling always comes as an inspirational and memorable experience.  Traveling to St. Louis is no different.  Such a trip can be even more exciting and educational than many other adventures you can take on as a student.  Young people can enjoy many activities and sights in St. Louis.  Many will help students connect with the city, learn new things about the region, and ignite their curiosity and imagination.  Overall, St. Louis can quickly broaden your horizons and provide inspiring learning experiences for students of all ages.  So let's see why you should consider St. Louis, what it can offer you, and what sights or activities you should try before leaving.  Here is your guide to St. Louis adventures.

Reasons to visit St. Louis on your next road trip

Students come to St. Louis for a variety of reasons.  They may want to rest after a tough week at school, have some fun on the weekends, or explore the city's significance for their educational purposes.  Let's see why student traveling to St. Louis is essential.

Historical Significance

St. Louis has a rich history, reaching back to the United States' westward expansion.  There are plenty of sights and places of significance to capture its historical meaning and honor the city's past.  The Gateway Arch is undoubtedly one of them.  Students should visit the city symbol and learn what it represents to the locals and the country.  The city cherishes this memory and allows younger people to deepen their understanding of America.

Museums and Cultural Institutions

Along with historical significance comes educational value.  Students can visit many world-class museums and other educational institutions.  The St. Louis Art Museum, Missouri History Museum, and the City Museum are just a few examples.  These sights offer great collections and exhibitions of art and historical artifacts, providing a fun and interactive learning experience.

Science and Technology

All science-inclined students will be glad to learn about this St. Louis Science Center and its overall passion for science exhibitions.  After all, the city prides itself on being a hub for scientific research and innovation.  Visiting St. Louis can help you define your major in school and inspire you to embark on a journey of scientific exploration and research.  In this author's post, you can find further help with your science papers and research.

Educational Tours

As always, students can engage in exciting and diverse educational tours around the city and the nearby territory.  As you can already tell, there is much to explore about the region.  For example, students can sign up for educational tours about the history and significance of the city during the Western expansion.  Students can seek free walking tours or find expert guides to provide 'behind-the-scenes' experience in many historical sights and museums.  You can even choose a time when attending the Missouri Botanical Garden, which we highly recommend.  Overall, tours offer students to gain insights into various industries, fields, and historical events, making learning inspiring and exciting.

Architecture and Design

All the architecture geeks would be thrilled to see St. Louis for its urban landscape and historical buildings.  Indeed, you can explore many architectural styles here, from Georgian colonial style to modern design.  If this is your gem, do not miss the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis and the Old Courthouse, as they are the two most fascinating and well-preserved memories.  However, you will also be impressed with contemporary urban planning and recent architectural trends.

What to do/to see in St. Louis

We've already covered the reasons why to travel to St. Louis.  Now, let's see what you can and see there.  Here is a list of some of the local attractions and activities.

Gateway Arch

As we've mentioned, the Gateway Arch is an absolute must when it comes to ST. Louis travels.  You couldn't miss it since it is the most iconic monument in town.  Besides, you can get stunning views of the city and the Mississippi River once you are there.

City Museum

A unique and interactive museum that combines elements of an amusement park, playground, and architectural marvel.  Explore tunnels and slides, and climb through the various levels of this imaginative attraction.

The Missouri Botanical Garden

This botanical garden features stunning plant displays, including the Japanese Garden, the Climatron tropical rainforest, and the Chinese Garden.  It's a peaceful and beautiful place to explore.

The Delmar Loop

All students would love to visit the Delmar Loop for the shopping and dining experience.  There you will find various restaurants and entertainment, including live performances and beautiful architecture.

The City Garden

Be sure to visit the City Garden after a long day of exploring.  It is a perfect place to rest and enjoy the outdoors while observing contemporary art installations among the luscious green spaces.

The Muny

Theater students or just art enthusiasts should also check out The Muny.  It is one of the largest and oldest outdoor amphitheaters in the United States.  You can attend live musical performances and classic theater plays almost every week.

Greek Kitchen Closes its Doors Forever
Greek Kitchen in Kirkwood, Missouri, Closes its Doors Forever

KIRKWOOD, MO (StLouisRestaurantReview) Greek Kitchen is officially closed.  This breaks my heart because it was one of my favorite restaurants in the region.  I went there for lunch today only to find out they had closed the business.

The owner was there, and we briefly visited with the owner, Lisa Kandel.  Found out some interesting facts.

Lisa started another Greek restaurant, Olympia Kebob House and Taverna, 1543 McCausland Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63117, which her children own now.

Her customers can find her at Olympia Kebob, but hopefully "not in the kitchen," she said.

We asked why she closed because of a lack of ability to negotiate the lease renewal, inflation, and staffing issues.

I am sure the lease was to increase, as property owners want more rent due to inflated real estate prices, increase in property taxes, and insurance, making it impossible for the small business to stay alive.

There will be an online auction for the equipment and furnishings.  The auctioneer is BCL Auction, and they can be found online at BCLAuction.com.

We wish the best for the owners, Joe and Lisa Kandel.  Closing a business is never easy.

But the good news is that her kids own the old place, and Lisa will be there.  Since we couldn't have lunch at Greek Kitchen today, we went to Olympia Kebob and couldn't have been happier with our food.

Olympia Kebob House and Taverna online reviews as of July 6, 2023, are as follows:

- Google - 4.4 Stars with more than 1690 online reviews

- Facebook - 4.4 Stars with 404 votes - 5.4K likes - 5.4 followers

- Yelp - 3.5 Stars with 372 reviews, but Yelp always has the lowest reviews

- TripAdvisor - 4 Stars with 146 reviews

- DoorDash - 4.8 Stars with 2300 votes - Amazing Rating!

- GrubHub - 4.6 Stars with 222 votes

Why You Should Visit St. Louis as a Student
(StLouisRestaurantReview) Traveling is always a great experience for any person.  It is the opportunity to see new places to get to know new people, and one ofandhe best ways to forget or swit is itch off from problems.  For students traveling can also be very helpful from an educational point of view.  For example, if you study history in college, holidays spent in Rome can be very valuable as you would be able to see amazing examples of the architecture of the Roman Empire.  If you study some foreign languages, like Spanish or French, for sure your dream destination point will be Madrid and Paris.  From this point of view, we sometimes feel sorry for local US cities because many Americans want to travel abroad and, at the same time, don’t know a lot about their neighboring cities.  That is why we prepared this article and would like to tell you about one of the greatest cities for travel in the US, St. Louis.  Here are some tips; we hope you will find them helpful.

Don’t take your academic debts with you.

This first tip is a basic one, no matter where you want to go.  Nothing can spoil your holidays like the thoughts about unwritten essays or the assignments that you didn’t send to your professor on time.  That is why we suggest you do everything possible in order to pass all the exams and send all the assignments.  If you think that you will not be able to cope with some essays alone, then you can consider as an option to place the order with some writing service, for example, Speedy Paper; in such case, you will, first of all, be calm because they will write all the paperwork within deadlines and in accordance with your requests and, second of all, the free time you get, you can spend on learning about St. Louis and on organizing your trip.

Think about the way of traveling and time.

Thanks to the St. Louis location, you can get there by any means of transport.  It will take you about three hours to get to Lambert International Airport from any point in the US.  If you have aerophobia, then you can easily get to the city by train or by car.  If you prefer a plane, you have to think about buying tickets beforehand.  It’s not necessary to do it three months in advance, for example, for international flights, when you can save some money if you buy a ticket long before the trip.  But it’s better not to postpone it till the last moment because during summertime people travel more often, so there is a chance that you will have difficulties with buying tickets.  Time is also very important.  Believe us, St. Louis, you will find what to do every season of the year.  If you look at the list of events that take place there, you will get tired of scrolling even after day; concerts, exhibitions, plays, events for children and adults, it’s always very hard to choose.  But if you ask us, the author’s choice is summer.  The weather is great, and you can spend a lot of time outdoors enjoying The Botanical Garden, St. Louis Zoo, or Laumeier Sculpture Park.

The city offers a wide choice of accommodation.

Another important issue is the place to live.  For sure, you will not have problems finding a suitable place to live without spending all your money (it’s better to do it in the Central West End).  If you can afford it, you can stay in a big and luxurious hotel.  If your budget is not that big, you can look for a hostel or rent a flat on Airbnb.  Those who have an adventurous spirit can try couch surfing.  If you are lucky enough, you will pay a very small amount of money or even nothing and will get a local acquaintance, whom you can ask about places to go and see or how to get somewhere if you are not very good at reading maps.

Look for bars and restaurants that locals choose.

The restaurant can be really fancy requiring an almost white tie dress code from you, but the food and atmosphere can be not nice at all.  And at the same time, some dinners can be so popular that people from the whole city go there to eat.  So, it’s always a good idea to ask locals where they prefer eating.  Or at least TripAdvisor.  And just for you to know, St. Louis is a perfect place for gastro tours, as it has a national reputation as a place where you can eat something really tasty.  Butter cake, thin-crust pizza, or deep-fried ravioli will drive you crazy and most probably will make you gain a couple of pounds.  And don’t forget about the famous St. Louis beer.

(StLouisRestaurantReview) One of the most responsible choices the young person should do is to choose the college or university to receive higher education.  It can be done based on your parents' experience because many teenagers tend to continue the tradition of their parents and go to college their mom or dad were going to.  Someone dreams about Ivy League college, and that's why they don't even consider any of their options.  And those students who don't have any particular preferences, in most cases, read the ranking of universities and colleges and choose some considering not only the institution itself but also the neighborhood and infrastructure of the city the college is located.  St. Louis is a well-known place in the US, and one of the reasons is a great number of colleges and universities there, Washington University, Saint Louis University, Webster University, University of Missouri, and Principia College, to name a few.  When the studying process starts, many students at first are really excited and enjoy it.  But with time, the realization comes that it's very hard work that takes a lot of force.  It is a rather typical thing for students to suffer from sleeping and eating disorders, and sometimes even from a lot of stress and depression.  And it happens because students forget that they need to relax sometimes because even though our brain is one of the greatest creations in the world if you don't let it relax, it gradually becomes less efficient.  Sometimes you solve this problem very easily; for example, it's enough to place an order with https://writepaperfor.me/, and you will get a couple of free evenings, as they will write any paperwork for you.  We prepared this article for those students who find it difficult to relax.  Here are some recommendations on how you can successfully combine studies and resting if you are a student at one of the St. Louis universities.

Find your motivation

For sure, you've seen online different personal coaches talking about motivation.  In most cases, they are not very trustworthy, but they are right about one thing.  Motivation is maybe the most important thing in any undertaking.  If you are not motivated, you will be able to accomplish some tasks, but it will be considerably longer and more difficult for you.  Many people find it difficult to motivate themselves.  So our advice is to make a bargain with you.  Think about something you really wanted, and you succeed in your studies to fulfill that wish.  For example, if you always wanted to visit Gateway Arch National Park, but didn't have time due to studies, visit it when you successfully pass all your exams.  It will help you to feel that all your efforts are praised.

Meditation and relaxation practices

Of course, there are a lot of people who are skeptical about yoga and meditation sessions, and no one will force you to practice them.  But let's agree that it is a well-known fact that if you worry, deep breaths can help you to relax.  Basically, you refill your body, and especially your brain, with oxygen, and it's exactly what we need so that our bodies function without any failures.  In order to feel relaxed and united with nature, you can go to Forest Park, which is one of the biggest urban parks in the USA.  This place is great for a picnic, yoga session, or any other training in the fresh air and a little outdoor party.

Find Your Hobby

Any type of hobby can be a very useful thing if you want to decrease the level of stress in your life.  First of all, it helps to switch to some alternative actions, and when you are changing the activity, it helps your brain to relax, which is very important for students.  Anything will work: you can learn some new language, learn how to cook or paint.  If you are a fan of art, you can visit Citygardens or Laumeier Sculpture Park, enjoy contemporary art and practice your skills in making sketches.

Social life

College years are not only about studies.  It's the time when you make friends, find your future partner, or even useful business connections.  And if you spend your whole time on campus or in a college library, you will miss so many opportunities.  St. Louise offers you so many exciting places to visit that it is very hard to choose something.  First of all, you can go to Ballpark Village, which is situated in downtown.  If you want to spend your money in luxurious boutiques, you should head to Clayton or Central West End.

Imagine being a child again.

When we go to university, we all consider ourselves to be serious adults that should not act childish.  But, sometimes, it can be useful.  And we have a great place in St. Louise to do that.  Get together with your friend and go to the City Museum.  It's almost a huge playground that is suitable for people of all ages.  You will climb and slide and even will be able to drink a beer and eat something here.  Visiting this museum will definitely help you to relax.
