Sasha's on Shaw (4069 Shaw Avenue; 314-771-7274)
Fireplaces also pair excellently with wine. Sasha's has an extensive wine list, but creative cocktails, too, like "The Tom Selleck." You'll feel the bourbon warm you up from the inside, while the rustic fireplace warms your outside. Choose a small plate or a selection of cheese to go with your drink, and you're sitting pretty.
