Ameristar Casinos' is your one stop entertainment venue! With the recent economy they have had to make some recent adjustments to the hours some of the restaurants are open.  They have also changed some of the concepts of the different dining establishments.

  I suggest booking a room at the hotel, going down for a massage. Then come back to your beautiful suite to get ready for dinner. Have a great martini at Kit Kat Club, then enjoy dinner at Bugatti's then dance the night away at Home Nightclub. End the night w/ a night cap in the hotels enclosed hot tub.

You don't have to drive anywhere. Then have an amazing breakfast and you haven't left the property. And you didn't even have to gamble! What a romantic escape!!!

Bravo- St. Louis

Bravo is located at West County Mall. I had been to the location in Kansas City and liked it so much that we went back again the next day.  So I eagerly got on their mailing list and found out that there was a location opening in St. Louis.  Not long after I recieved an invitation to go to their Training Dinner. Dan & I got a free dinner for two. Anything on the menu, we just paid for our drinks.  I was swept away by the service and the ambiance. But mostly by the food.

Recenty we stopped by there again for Happy Hour after a long day of Christmas shopping. GREAT HAPPY HOUR! Half price drinks and appetizers!  Here is just a sampling of the appetizers we tried.
