Cafe Telegraph Smoke Shack

I'm going to start with a quick note: We almost skipped this establishment because of the tone of the responses to negative reviews, not because of the reviews themselves, rather the condescending replies. I get it, it's hard not to take them personally, still... it's the first impression. We were in town at the Jefferson Barracks Cemetery decided to stop in for a bite to eat to continue our family visit for a bit, before flying back home.

Had a large order. The 2 orders of mushrooms were under cooked( mushy) . But previous orders were great. I will add, they apologized and refunded cost of the roms, we do love the food! Service was timely for pre order.
