Breaking Up Isn't Hard to Do in St. Louis

Girlfriends and boyfriends in St. Louis be warned: if your significant other invites you out to Lucas Park Grille for a date, the words "It's not you, it's me" are in your future. And soon.

That's because this Loft District steakhouse was recently voted "Best Place to Break-Up" in Sauce Magazine's 2006 Reader's Choice poll. Owners guessed the victory could be owed to the restaurant's abundance of exits. While online diner reviews for Lucas Park are mixed, it's unclear whether or not the most scathing of 'em are, in fact, from those who were taken there just to be given the axe.

Runners-up in the break-up category were, in descending rank: Riddle's Penultimate Café & Wine Bar, Tony's, and Kaldi's Coffeehouse. Interestingly enough, #3 (Tony's) was ranked #1 in the poll's "Wait Staff" category, which must mean the servers give really good hugs.
