Burger 809 reinvigorates Citygarden in downtown St. Louis

The Terrace View space finally has a restaurant again

Burger 809’s new location has reinvigorated the Terrace View space at Citygarden in downtown St. Louis. The classic slider is pretty much a perfect, albeit plain, burger with plenty of gooey cheese and a flavorful patty. We’re also into the Hi Thai chicken slider, which is made with chicken breast basted with sweetand- spicy Thai sauce and served atop a bed of coleslaw and pickles. Don’t be fooled by the term “slider” here – while the portion sizes may not be the gargantuan servings we’re used to here in the States, these so-called sliders are a reasonably sized meal for one person. We also really enjoyed the Thai chicken fajita nachos, which this time paired that sweet-and-spicy Thai chicken with creamy cheese sauce and fresh veggies. However, this dish left the menu at the end of Burger 809’s soft opening phase, so we're hopeful they'll bring it back as an occasional special.
