Sur La Table

Love this place! Yes they sell kitchen gadgets but the service is exactly what you would exist from a place that sells them for this much. One of the friendlier stores at Frontenac.

I was at Plaza Frontenac just recently to go to Sur La Table to replace several items that recently disappeared during a family crisis that I was managing by myself – unwanted family was at the St. Louis house and threw out things that were not supposed to have been thrown out – and I was informed that their payment policy has changed: they will no longer accept personal checks as payment in their store. If you didn’t know that before, you know now and are forewarned. I was not pleased about that.

Rude employees, will never go back. Tried pushing a soda stream when all I went in there for was a knife.

I really like this store. I was only in the mall for the free flu shots being offered one day and naturally decided to explore while there since I am rarely in Plaza Frontenac. It seemed there is probably something for everyone if looking for cooking items of all types. While I did not go in their with the intention to buy anything I came out with some Vietnamese cinnamon for a quinoa dish I wanted to try and some peppermint crunch for a stocking stuffer. I will likely go back actually before Christmas to double check for any additional stocking stuffers.
It is a store worth checking out, even if you only go there.

Sometimes I hate the fact that I get emailing from Sur La Table. They are always tempting me and luring me out to their store, which can be a dangerous thing. I see things I need or want in their e-​catalog and then when I get out to the brick and mortar store I end up spending more $.
We were on a mission for one of those meat thermometers probes that lets you know when the meat is done by a digital reader on your counter. I researched the night before and Sur La Table had the one we were looking for. When we arrived, I was amazed at the even larger selection of styles and models they had. What impresses me most about SLT, is someone there is always able to give a true testimonial of the product you are interested in purchasing. Surprisingly, it is not always the higher priced item that they recommend. Honesty is good customer service.
When shopping here, always be sure to check out the «Clearance Corner» in the back right side of the store. This last visit we got a juicer for $ 14.99 that was originally $ 60.
It may be Lime Green, but who cares you saved some $‘s. Besides, you’ll only have it out when you are making fresh orange juice or lemonade.
Great kitchen gadget and accessory store. Between here and C&B my kitchen is to die for.

Why, oh, why do I forget about this wonderful store? Well, I do know why — it’s tucked in the back corner of a mall that I rarely visit.
Shoot — I’ve got to remember to make special trips here, as it’s such a fun place to browse for bargains and more. Sweet, smiling ladies offered me assistance several times (any more might have been over the top, though).
I scored with cute red and white serving pieces to use at our lake house including gingham bread baskets, large bandanna print dish towels, snappy melamine trays and a few sets of serving utensils — now I’ll match the boat! And, everything was 50% off. I’ll be back for the ceramic berry baskets — super fun, but I have to pace myself.
The shop has what’s needed for all sorts of culinary adventures like margarita paraphernalia, grilling gear, baking stuff out the wazoo, coffee-​coffee-​coffee, eclectic electrics, an arsenal of knives, terrific textiles, and much much more.

I can end up spending way too much money and time here… thank goodness I don’t live near this mall!
I came here because I was wasting time one day. I ended up buying a spring form pan and an apron. They were both on sale and fairly good deals. The spring form pan was a better deal than the apron, but i do like my apron.
Anyway… the service was super friendly and nice. The store was some-​what cluttered… but it gave it a nice homey feel. It was also fairly reasonably organized. The girl who talked to me knew everything I had to ask about the store and about not the store. I told her I wanted to go to Hobby Lobby in a while to buy cloth and asked where the nearest JoAnn was. She told me next to Hobby Lobby, there was a fabric store.
Seriously, this Sur La Table has THE BEST employees. WIN!
So, if I’m looking for something weird, I’m totally coming back here.

after trying to register at williams-​sonoma where the store was a mess, everything was out of stock, the staff ignored us and their system wasn’t working… walked over to sur la table where the staff was helpful but not overbearing and the selection is more complete. i have never not found what i am looking for here from tortilla presses to crêpe pans to le creuset classics and my nespresso machine!

I love this place no matter the cost if I see something I want I gotta get it… It’s my right as a Chef and dammit it’s a tax write off… This store is simply amazing :)

If you like cooking at home, you need to visit this place. It has everything you could ever need an much much more. I picked up a Le Creuset dutch oven yesterday for $ 40 less than Williams-​Sonoma which is in the same mall. They have a bunch of high end brands and a very large selection of all kinds of tableware, cooking utensils and every kind of cooking gadget you can think of.
If you’re looking for something with a bit more quality that the Bed Bath & Beyond goods… but not as expensive as Williams-​Sonoma, check this place out.

Shopping with a co-​worker to get prizes for our Division Holiday Party Bake-​Off. Thank goodness we were on a mission, or I would have walked out of there with gobs of stuff for my own kitchen!
There’s so much enticing stuff in this store, and it’s well-​presented and organized in sort of «departments.»
In quite short order, we found perfect prizes for the 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd place winners in all four categories of baked goods. Then we needed much smaller participation gifts for all Bake-​Off entrants. .. this one I wasn’t so sure we’d find anything economical enough. But we did!
When we entered the store, we were greeted, then another clerk asked what we were looking for. Throughout our rather extended stay, numerous clerks asked if we needed assistance.
–1 star for: When I got back to the office, another co-​worker asked if we were offered «help to your car» (some sort of valet) service. Heck, I didn’t even know they had that. Considering the size of the purchase and the weight of the goods we were toting out of that store to take to our cars. .. well, that should have been a DUH! Didn’t happen.

I owe a big chunk of my kitchen supplies to this store! This place is almost always busy which can lead to a bit of frustration if you are really looking for help, but you can just entertain yourself admiring all of the interesting dohickeys they sell until assistance arrives. They sell just about any name brand that is out there including their own — which in my opinion is about as good as the higher priced All Clad. And I think Sur La Table has the most offerings of Le Creuset outside of Le Creuset!
This location does not have a cooking class area.

Every time I walk into Sur La Table, I end up leaving with at least two things to go Sur Ma Table. Usually, these aren’t even things I was particularly looking for, but I really just can’t help myself in this store.
Among my recent impulse buys:
grizzly bear cookie cutter
bunny cookie cutter
tiny Le Creuset casserole dish
baking stone
more French porcelain than I know what to do with
The ladies in the store are so nice, and every time they ooh and ahh over stuff I’m looking at, I feel extra compelled to buy it.
