Description

This steakhouse was put together in the 1960s, when flamboyant Chase Hotel owner Harold Koplar fashioned a San Francisco-like haunt between his Chase and Park Plaza hotels. Featuring mahogany woodwork from a demolished mansion across the street, an open grill and nearly gaudy red wallpaper, the Tenderloin Room reigned as one of St. Louis' most fashionable restaurants for years.

Today, with the hotels revived as apartments, the Tenderloin Room has been restored to near its old prominence. Recommended are the lamb and veal chops, the pepperloin steak with mustard-based sauce, the grilled salmon, the filet mignon and the Chateaubriand for two.
