We had a large party of 14 people and the team went above and beyond to help us celebrate our family get together. The atmosphere of the mansion inside and out was wonderful. We had a private room that fit all of us perfectly. Judi and Mitchell were even kind enough to take pictures for us so every one could be together in one photo and decorated the room with gorgeous flowers. Dinner was amazing and the appetizers were delicious and unique. We had a wonderful time and really appreciate the attentiveness of all of the staff. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did to make this special occasion so memorable.

This was my wife and I 13 year wedding anniversary, and this was our first time dinning here at The Mansion and it was amazing! Everything from the atmosphere, to the service, to the food was outstanding. The staff made sure we was ok throughout our evening. This cherry on top was the desert it was a cookie ice-cream sandwich but it was like a ginger bread snickers doodle cookie and it was amazing. Don't get me wrong the steak dinner and Italian pasta my wife had was amazing as well. If you are looking for a nice fancy restaurant definitely check them out you will not be disappointed. They just earned themselves some returning customers.

It is so nice to have someplace special to visit in the Metro East without having to go into the city or driving to another suburb. The place cleared out after 8pm so if you’re a late diner don’t hesitate to give them a call. It’s nice without being pretentious. Folks were dressed well but jeans were acceptable. Most folks were celebrating something, just like us. Food isn’t cheap but we’ve paid more at chain places for less quality and the staff were so nice. Emma was our server and she was wonderful. I’d love to learn more about the mansion history and hope this place keeps adding to its story.

Wow!! August the Mansion was an absolutely amazing experience, 10/10!!! I haven’t had service this good, food this good, atmosphere this good in a while! I brought my family here to celebrate a birthday and they knocked it out of the park! They even made my little 5 year old feel so special and had a great children’s menu for her. We all left talking about when we could come back. Absolutely worth the price, a beautiful little setting in the heart of O’Fallon. P.S. You HAVE to try the Basque Cheesecake, a highlight of the meal for all of us!

Visited August the Mansion for my birthday dinner and it was delightful! From the cocktails to the bucatini with delicious bursts of spice, every dish was impeccable. Don't miss out on their imported burrata from Italy – it's a must-try! Can't recommend enough. Can't wait to return!
