I've no real complaints about Riddles, but if you go when there's live music, sit near the back of the restaurant if you plan on dining and talking. The menu changes daily, but the food is always fresh, even the butter nut squash. EXTENSIVE wine list (didn't order any) and a boldness and creativity in the menu selections are center stage here. The friendly wait staff is young (remember, this is a college part of STL), so don't expect white glove service. The price is more than your average place, but I believe it's well worth it. We go when we have extra money to burn -- that is to say, not often. But enough to make it special.
Pros: Fresh, tasty food, Ever-changing menu, HUGE wine list
Cons: Street parking
