I absolutely love Lona's Lil Eats! Every item on the menu is fantastic, but my personal favorites are sautéed shrimp, the spicy sesame sauce, and the lime ginger peanuts – they're my go-to picks. To be honest, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu here, it's all amazing! Additionally, the staff are super friendly, and the whole place has a really cool vibe.
This food was absolutely amazing. You order at the counter and then it’s brought out to you. I had absolutely no complaints about this food; I especially enjoyed their creative sauces. Would definitely recommend the sesame chili oil and lemongrass pesto. The staff was super friendly and made recommendations that were delicious. I will definitely be going back to try their wraps and other dishes.
I got a rice paper wrap with chicken, stir fry glass noodles, and spicy sesame sauce, as well as a side of spicy cucumber. It was all so spicy and wonderful! Total came out to $17 (including tip), and portion was decently sized, like a normal burrito size. Cashier was helpful in helping me select what to order - always appreciated!
Trendy place located in a historic neighborhood of St. Louis. The food is prepared fresh with an eye to freshen, flavor and texture. Most items come with a sauce. This is where I suggest caution. Anything marked as spicy is very hot to the mouth and tongue. However there are other options not so perilous.
They do have diet soda, but it is in small print on the soda dispenser. I liked the diet cola I tried, even though I was unfamiliar with the brand.
The serving dives are large. I had to get a takeout box to get my leftovers home.
The staff were very helpful and present when we needed them.
got the mountain hill tribe soup, absolutely PERFECT for winter cravings. super super rich, just spicy enough, great veg that soaked up the soup flavor, just enough noodles and plenty of meat topping. relaxed indie type atmosphere, lots of options. no wonder it's critically acclaimed!
The chicken Thai wrap was 10/10 and the steak wrap was good as well! Also the pickled cucumber salad is great. Loved the atmosphere and food. Will be back!
Great place in fox park! Really enjoyed walking over the other night from our Airbnb. Prices are reasonable, service was excellent, and the overall friendly vibe made this a great experience. Adult beverages are for sale as well. The menu is varied with several vegan and vegetarian options of their Asian fusion cuisine. As always, you simply can’t go wrong with smoked brisket. A real must try if you’re in the area!
Such a cute little eatery! Amazing food and Lona is so nice and sweet. Long made sure my food was made perfectly to fit my dietary restrictions. I will be back!

This was an amazing experience! The food was great! We tried several different things and they were all wonderful. My favorite was the turkey with the Lona Q sauce. The staff was unbelievably helpful. Since it was our first time there they even talked us through all of the options.
Wow. Wow. Wow. I literally have nothing else to say. This place is absolutely incredible. First time in today & the food did NOT disappoint. Staff are super friendly & walked us through the menu. I built my own wrap with the rice paper, stir fried glass noodles, and chicken and it was sooooo so good. The side stir fried veggies were a little bland/oily but honestly when my burrito finally burst at the bottom, I just mixed everything together and it was great. & the dumplings omg 😮💨 Will definitely be coming back.
I like how basic the menu is. Plenty of options on how you have it, but not overwhelming.
Had the lemon grass turkey wrap and egg plant. Delicious! Except the wrap fell apart towards the end.
Really fun place!
YUMMY!!!! I love this place soooo much. The food was AMAZING, the workers were very friendly. Literally, words can't describe this place. Please please go and try their food. You will thank me later🫶🏼 oh make sure to try their lona-q sauce!!!
The food was alright, we (partner and myself) ordered the spicy tofu salad wrap. It was pretty good for my first vegan St Louis meal. Wasn't too disappointed. Only thing that sucked was they were using card only and had cash on me. Ran to my car in he pooring rain to get my card smh otherwise, it was good.
Love, love, love it! Was my 1st time there, the service was great, everyone was friendly & personable especially the cashier & it had a home feel to it & the food was delicious! And if you can have it, don't forget to get some "Punch"! I will definitely be back!
This is a find! So good. The stew is delightful. All the wraps we've had are amazing. It can be really spicy or more mild depending on what you choose. It's a new favorite for us
I liked this place a lot. The giant rice paper wraps were delicious and stuffed full. The stir fried veggie was bok choy, which I liked, and the spicy eggplant was okay. My husband really enjoyed his Thai chicken wrap.
The only real drawback for me is that they don't seem to know what to do with a kid's palate. We talked about using plain tofu, which I got and enjoyed, but my kid's plate had spicy tofu. It's pretty dang spicy, and she just couldn't eat it. He very nicely agreed to bring out non-spicy tofu, but unfortunately it was soaked in some very strong soy sauce. Also, note that even though they have a kid's section on the menu, they apparently don't really have a kid's menu. He mentioned that, but I guess I didn't understand that the "tofu" in that section was the same as the "spicy tofu" on another part of the menu. All this to say: be very explicit if you have strong preferences or dietary needs, particularly if you have a finicky eater in the group.
The food was delicious! We ordered a bunch of stuff and shared. We had the fresh spring rolls and the dumplings to start. They were yummy. I ordered the steak rice paper wrap and my friends got the brisket plate, the chicken wrap, and the spicy tofu wrap. It was awesome and the portions were HUGE! I can't wait to come back!
I love this place! Vegan and gluten free options! We come visit this restaurant every time we are in town!
