Get there early if you don't want to wait. Great place to grab some good food and delicious ice cream and root beer concoctions. The blended root beer and ice cream shake was creamy and flavorful. The chili cheese burger with Fritos had a great chili bean, cheese and sour cream topping. Fries were nice and crispy and the lent fish special was great as well. Quick friendly service. Ambiance is a bit of dated retro mixed with nostalgia. It comes off a bit hokey, but hey if it ain't broke don't fix it.

I split the kid's pizza with my niece and it was actually really good. My husband and niece split the Eurostar float. The portions at Fitz's are huge. So much food comes with each meal. I never eat it all and always have leftovers. The chili Mac was really good. The pineapple was good, but not our favorite Fitz's soda we've tried. The chili was good as usual. I like both Fitz's locations but this one is fun if you can go. The vibe is cool and it seems really vintage and cool. We had great service at our visit and didn't have to wait for a table.

Fitz's for me has become a Saint Louis staple. I have been coming here since I first came to Saint Louis and it is a place that I have consistently been able to come to without getting tired of it. The food is good overall good, with the BBQ pulled pork sandwich being a go-to BBQ option for me in Saint Louis. I have tried other things on the menu buffalo chicken wrap with less success, but overall the menu is well built and provides a variety of options without being overwhelming. The highlight of Fitz's for me though it the wide assortment of floats that are always a hit. I have tried a large amount of the float menu and all of them have been a hit for me, however I am rarely about to finish a full one by myself. Pro tip, you can say that you are splitting a float and they will divide into two cubs for you for the same price. The ambiance of Fitz's is cute without being overly elaborate. For me the highlight is always to look at the brightly colored soda bottles and see if I can guess the flavors. The service is ok, however it can tend to be slow. If you are going plan on being there for a little while. Overall, Fitz's is a fun dinner and dessert place that is worth a visit!

Sometimes, I dive in so quick, I forget to take a picture! The Mexican Mule was good, but a tad sweet for my taste. I ordered the Chili Frito Burger which is listed under the Burger heading, but I don't see how one would eat it as a burger... I took the top bun off and ate it with a fork and knife. It was also good, though not necessarily great. The service was okay, though she missed one of the items that somebody else ordered. It's definitely a diner vibe and looks like they used to have someone at the front to assign tables and hand out menus, but it wasn't happening the night we stopped in. Get your own menus and seat yourself. Overall, not the best, but not bad either.

Review Visit: December 30th, 2012 A restaurant AND soda bottling plant. A little info on Fitz's. They are a restaurant. They also bottle and sell soda in the Missouri-Illinois region (it may expand further, but this is based on my knowledge). You can experience both at the same time if you visit Fitz's. Fitz's is located on Delmar and it seems to be a pretty popular area. On the way my friends and I went, parking was tight since the area was alive with activity. Once inside, the place is impressive. It offered seating upstairs and on the main floor. They had some arcade machines here and there, but not too many since it was a tight fit on the inside. If you go to the back wall of the main floor, you can actually watch them bottle the root beer. There are a few photos below in the gallery that showcases this. It was sweet to get a glimpse inside the bottling process. As for the food, it was alright. Nothing special, but not terrible. It's been a few years since I've been there, so I am sure their menu has changed up a bit. The cool thing was that when they gave us our bill, we got a free unopened soda with it, free of charge. So while the prices were a bit high and the food was not quite stellar, it should be on anyone's St. Louis list for the uniqueness of it. Plus the soda is actually really good! I grabbed a variety pack when I left.

Did not expect everything to be so good. So big plus. Their diet root beer is delicious! The space is very big and open which is very cool. I like seeing the bottling too, super fun. This place is very solid.

REDEMPTION! We were doing dinner for my sister and even though I've avoided this place for YEARS because of our first couple experiences, it's great for kiddos and my nephews like it so this is where we ended up. Austin was our server and he was PHENOMENAL. Truly. He was so attentive, kept all our cups full, got all our orders right. He checked on us multiple times. Food was super quick to come out and all super fresh. My sister/dad said that the burgers were awesome. The toasted raviolis were fantastic. The spinach and artichoke dip was unique and SO flavorful, my nephew LOVED the cheese pizza, and the BBQ sauce on the BBQ plate tasted just like root beer. There wasn't anything bad on the table. Their draft sodas are phenomenal. Such a great experience, and so glad we gave it another try!!

When you come here, floats are a must! I actually don't remember the one my husband had but it was very chocolatey and he loved it. I ordered the 'Swifties Afterglow' which was a Shirley Temple topped with vanilla and strawberry ice creams, whipped cream, and berry drizzle, served with a commemorative limited-edition bottle. It was HUGE! Both of us did not finish our floats but they were very good and some of the best I've had. I also do not remember what my husband ordered other than it was a burger that he enjoyed. I ordered the 'Grand Coney' which was a charred quarter-pound all beef hot dog served open-faced on a toasted hoagie roll then smothered with house made chili, Colby Jack cheese and red onions served with breaded onion rings. I normally do not like Chili in general, but it was actually quite good. It was a good size meal, didn't finish all the onion rings but good meal overall. The service was prompt, friendly, and informative. The restaurant reminded me a lot of 'Fountain on Locust' which I reviewed the other day. Very old-school soda fountain place. I love that. I would definitely check this place out again, but 100% try the floats. They are worth it!
