Our Story

A Few Words
About Us
Since 1982, Tucker’s Place has been committed to bringing our customers the very best! Delicious food, a relaxed, cozy atmosphere, terrific service and reasonable prices have made Tucker’s what it is today!
- The owners of Tucker’s Place wrote and developed their own beef specifications and visited only the plants that could deliver the best.
- All of our steaks come from the Omaha area which has the highest concentration of English bred cattle, Angus & Hereford. Omaha is the “heart of the corn belt” where the richest cattle are raised!
- Our sirloin and strip cut steaks are exclusively Omaha “Black Angus”, USDA Choice or higher graded beef.
Not to mention we also feature an excellent selection of ice cold local craft beers, a sommelier inspired wine selection, and some of the best happy hour deals in town!
Please check out some of our reviews and awards, and come in to see what everyone in Saint Louis has been talking about!

“You get lots of food for not a lot of money” – no wonder carnivores keep coming back again and again to the original steakhouse/saloon in Soulard as well as its accommodating West and South County outposts; the cooked-to-perfection juicy beef – definitely their specialty – and great pork chops are served in a neat pub-like atmosphere that makes you feel comfy, plus there’s now a nice outdoor area at the newer branches – Zagat Restaurant Survey
