Best bar in Columbia. The food is great! The bartenders are the best in town! I've been working in Columbia for the past 3+ months and Addisons became my go to place! read more

Guuuh. I had the most obnoxious visit to this restaurant. Our group of four was told it would only be a wait of a few minutes. Half an hour later, we were seated. It took forever for a server to come by. Several minutes. Our food took forever. What should have been an hour long lunch was running closer to two. The food seems uninspired and bland. I ordered the Thai Chicken Salad, which was mediocre at best. Prices are kinda of steep for a Midwestern college town. Fast forward to the next morning... I lost a day of my life to the most wretched food poisoning I've experienced in quite some time. I definitely won't be going back to this place. read more

I would really say meh, but I get why some people like it. The atmosphere is cheery and bright. I remember the waitstaff being helpful also. The food was just OK though. Not bad but I just don't suggest it to friends. First time I went I had the Southwest Tortilla Salad and the Mango Mahi Mahi the next. Addison's interior is welcoming and the bar looks like fun so I think there is still reason to at least give it a chance. On a side note the first time I went there was with a friend from home and he had the Brandy Au Poivre Filet. After the meal he said he'd rather have gone to Booche's again, and he'd been on an aircraft carrier for a few months. read more

Very good food and service. We visited the night before homecoming and the place was packed. The staff handles everything very well. I have the pulled pork BBQ and it was excellent. We were planning on visiting the following night but someone ran their car into the building. Hope everyone is ok and the place gets fixed. read more

One of my boyfriend and I's favorite places to eat. We've been in several times and the service is always great and the food is delicious. I crave the nachos in my sleep, lol. If you're not too stuffed from cleaning your plate during dinner, try a dessert. We tried the apple pie recently and it was phenomenal, some of the best I've had ever. read more

Good service, nice atmosphere, reasonable prices and tasty food, what's not to like? Try the crab rangoon dip!

I've been to Addison's twice. I really liked the venue as well as the beer list. The Cuban sandwich was very good. On the second visit I had a chicken sandwich that I thought was ok. I plan on returning to try some of their other offerings. read more

Our second visit to Addison's was as good as the first. The salmon BLT was SCRUMPTIOUS. Beef barley soup delicious. Cucumber salad flavorful, a nice change to a side salad. My husband had Cuban flatbread sandwich with pork and turkey. Smashed potatoes on the side. He loved it. Can't wait to go back! read more

Incredible service! Has some of the coolest staff in town! I would definitely recommend the rose salmon it was phenomenal. 11/10 experience.

Dishing out upscale American cuisine, this is one of Columbia's best restaurants. I leave that up to you to decide if that actually means something or not. Try the red, white, and green (I think it's called that?) - flatbread, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, topped with olive oil/balsamic vinegar. Could be a main course. I had the salmon with chipotle/corn salsa the first time I came here, and while the corn salsa on top of the fish was pleasantly spicy, the salmon itself lacked flavor. Do not order ocean-caught fish in a landlocked state. read more

I always love going back to Columbia and going to old favorite restaurants. Addison's is a Columbia staple. I was in town for the Mizzou vs. ku game and we were looking for a spot to eat after the game that wasn't going to have a ridiculous wait. We were in luck! I got the super fantastic really yummy burger (or something to that effect is what the menu said) and it was all of those adjectives and more! The burger was great: covered in two types of cheese, topped with onion straws, bacon, and a spicy horseradish mayo. And it had marinated cucumbers on it as well. May not be the healthiest choice, but man it was good. This is definitely a great spot in Columbia to get a casual meal. The funny part is when I was at Mizzou, this was the fanciest place in town!! Or so I thought... Either way, it is a great place to eat. read more

I stopped by Addison's this past weekend and wasn't overly impressed. I did enjoy the Southern Gentleman martini I had, though. That might have been the best part of my evening. I was happy to see that there were more than a few vegetarian options on the menu. Since all of the reviews I'd read raved about the Nachos Bianco, I decided to try them. In my opinion, they weren't all that good. But maybe that was because a big hunk of wantons was burned? Dunno. It was heavy and greasy and not all that flavorful. For my meal I got the Thai peanut wrap with a side of garlic fries. The fries were much better than the wrap. I mean, it was ok...but there was too much sauce for my liking and it just didn't taste all that great. I'm not from the area, but while in town, I found other restaurants that were better than Addison's. But I suppose it's a good place to grab a drink or two. read more

We were there earlier tonight. We had some drinks, appetizer and salad. All were very good. Service was great. Price was great too. They have happy hour for draft beers from Sunday through Thursday. We'll be back. read more

The food is good and used to go here often. Last night was my 22nd birthday and me and 3 girlfriends went for dinner, we were put on a wait list and my friend saw that under the description the hostess had written "hoochie girls" . We were wearing normal clothes (leggings, boots, and I had on a dress for my bday) we were very nice and polite to her I have no idea why a worker would be so nasty towards a customer. We told the manager and got a free appetizer but I don't care, me or mY family will never be returning . So rude... UPDATE: I changed my rating from a 1 to a 3 bc the owner personally contacted me and apologized which means a lot. The hostess was a B but I will try it again possibly read more

Food is always great here but service can be hit or miss. I'm the type that likes to order drinks right away and within 5 minutes order food. I think it just depends on the server but honestly the food is worth the wait especially the Italian pasta chips read more

Owned by the same people as Sophia's, but with a slightly different menu, I believe. This place has great food and is good for large-ish groups (think 10 or 12, but not 30). I've often gone there after shows, around 10 or later, and the service is still good. Also, the art on the walls is all done by the same (local?) guy, and it's interesting enough to keep anyone's attention long enough to get a conversation going. All tangled legs and people charging all over the place, with very distinct ankle bones. read more

Addison's is one of COlumbia's best. The food is unique and good. The happy hour specials at night are also great. Get the nacho's bianca! read more

The quality of service has really diminished over the years. So unfortunate because Columbia has increasingly more dining options. Plenty of competition so me and my friends don't have to put up with attitude from servers. I have no idea how Maddy even has a job. She has waited on me and friends several times and has been incredibly RUDE each time and for no reason at all. I was there on a Saturday afternoon not long ago with a larger group. The place was completely empty, only a few people at the bar. We asked for a table for 10 and were told 6 people had to show before we could be seated... We obliged and sat in the waiting area. All we wanted was a drink and a seat, though. We laughed to ourselves as we looked at the entirely empty dining area. Not one seated table. When more people arrived, we realized there would be 8, so we told a hostess who didn't tell the others, I guess. When we asked to be seated after waiting longer with added people, we got SO MUCH attitude because we apparently did not update the right employee. We were told it was our own fault we had to wait because they could have sat us with the four people... We just scratched our heads as we wondered 1) why we had to wait anyway, 2) why we were getting attitude from employees about something we apparently did wrong (one was Maddy), and 3) how dumb do you have to be to make people who want to drink and spend money at your establishment wait when they they are the only people patronizing your business to begin with!! Think, people, and lose the freaking attitudes! read more

The best service I have ever had! The Addison Burger with Mojito Fries is the go to burger! Waitress was extremely helpful and it was just an overall great experience. read more

This place is a solid 4. The restaurant is a nice environment, the wait staff is quick and nice, and the food is really good. We were looking for a place to eat on a road trip, and Yelp directed us to this place. Everyone on Yelp seems to recommend the nachos, but we didn't get them because after being on a long road trip, more asiago cheese dishes (seriously, they're everywhere) just didn't sound appetizing. So we got the lobster ravioli instead. It was pretty good ravioli, but unfortunately, there are only 5 pieces. But it is only an appetizer, after all. The tortellini pasta bake was really delicious, though. Certainly one of the best I've ever had. A really large portion, too. I wasn't able to finish it. read more

The lemon pepper calamari appetizer was tasty, if a little salty, but the honey mustard dipping sauce didn't add anything. My shrimp diablo pasta was delicious, and remarkably spicy. My wife would have liked her Thai chicken salad if the chicken had been grilled or sauteed, but battered and fried was to heavy for her taste. The staff were very friendly and helpful. read more

The Mediterranean Pizza! Everything about it is perfect. The crust is fluffy. Golden cheese. The balsamic glaze is the cherry on top - punch of flavor! Good job, Addison's. Artichokes, tomatoes, kalamata olives, onions, fresh basil, and asiago sauce topped with mozzarella, feta, and a sweet balsamic reduction on a freshly baked pizza. read more

This is a pretty good place to try here in town. good atmosphere I had good service, and the balsamic pizza was good as well read more

Good solid food, nice sandwiches, pretty decent beer on tap, for a reasonable price. Certainly work checking out. The couple of times I've been there, the staff has been quick and attentive, the atmosphere is good (particularly if you get a booth) and a good place to go with a group. read more

Got the turkey wrap tonight to share since we got the Nacho's Bianco. The turkey wrap was a little bland tonight and the side of fries was pretty small. Nacho's Bianco is always a treat! The restaurant was crowded, but we got there early enough to get the last open table with no wait. Service was prompt. The restaurant was clean. Aside from the disappoint turkey wrap - it was a good visit. I have had the turkey wrap several times in the past and it was just fine. read more

We started out with an appetizer of the Nachos Bianco, which were very good. It went downhill from there....We then decided on ribs for our lunch to share with mashed potatoes and a side of fries. The waiter asked if we wanted the full order of ribs, which we replied yes. The restaurant is currently not handing out menus (or didn't offer one) so you only go off your phone. As we recalled - there was only one option for ribs and the price was $17 for ribs and 1 side. The ribs were terrible - not only not warm, but smothered in so much sauce it gave you the impression they were trying to cover up they were old. The mashed potatoes had good flavor. The fries, were also not good. We ended up boxing most of the meal up; heating it the next day and throwing it out - that's how BAD it was. The worst part is when the bill came the ribs were $26! For lunch! I looked back on my phone and couldn't even locate this was an option on the menu. Why would the waiter even ask a question that wasn't on the menu, and confuse the customer. For one appetizer and one meal, it was $50 and most went in our trash bin. Very disappointed! read more

Not only is this place great for dinner, it's also awesome for late night snacks and beer. I recommend the crab rangoon dip, the nachos bianco, or the mediterranean pizza. If you get a meal with a side get the roasted garlic smashed potatoes. I could eat them as a meal. And, if you have room for dessert, I love the phyllo brownie. read more

This is a great local place. There is no doubt you feel at home the very second you walk in. Restored, downtown building with a welcoming atmosphere and excellent variety on the menu. You can't go wrong. Enjoy!! read more

Very convenient to where I live, but service is consistently awful. About 50/50 whether they'll get your order right. Finally reached the breaking point today, will never return there again. read more

It isn't a chain, which is a positive. The menu was unique, and the sweet potato chips with horseradish dip was awesome. Our entrees had tasty sides, but we were given chicken thighs instead of breasts so that sort of thew us off. The service was good, she kind of rushed us out of there. I'll go back if I must eat in Columbia again. read more

Addison's had so much potential for me too love it. Their menu is full of unique spins on bar food. From a steak and mashed potato wrap, to nachos made with wontons instead of tortilla chips. The place is causal and has plenty of seating. Expect to wait if you go on a weekend night unless you can find a spot at the bar. They had a large selection of craft beers with the majority being local which I love. I ordered the wings with peanut Thai sauce and then the nachos. The food took while to get out to us and when it finally did our order was messed up. We had to wait longer to get the correct order. The wings were delicious. The nachos were fine. I don't think this is a place I will go out of my way to come back to the next time I am in Columbia. read more

I went to Addison's for the first time last night as I am in town visiting family for Christmas. I ordered the salmon BLT wrap and it was delicious. I also had the side salad and that was tasty as well. My family also had great food. I was impressed how tentative our server was to what we needed and his professionalism. We were sitting next to a table with several small children and one of them spilt their milk on the floor. Our server did not waste anytime cleaning up the mess and was patient throughout that situation. Great job!! I want to come back the next time I am in Columbia. read more

This food was so good! They had a great selection of american food and cool atmosphere. We got a few of the appetizers but the flat bread and calamari were the best by far, and very filling. I also had the spicy diablo shrimp pasta which was amazing and just spicy enough. They have a good beer selection as well. I was there from my brothers graduation dinner and it was the perfect spot for a celebration that won't break the bank or and will leave you satisfied. Half the table left with to-go boxes. read more

Went here for a birthday dinner and had to wait very long to be seated. However the manager was extremely nice and understanding and offered our table free appetizers as compensation. The wings were great and I'm not a fan of chicken nachos but my friends loved them. The drinks were not as strong as I'd like but they were kind and willing to fix it for me. The mojito fries have great flavor but can be a bit too greasy/oily, definitely need a glass of water with them. My friends said the pasta was great as well! Service was very attentive especially for a large party. read more

Food is very consistently good. Late night appetizers are excellent! The three stars is because the service is VERY hit and miss. This is a shame because some of the bad experiences have been really very bad. And this really colors the entire experience. I don't know why they don't work on this flaw. Our latest server was downright rude. It's the number one negative that we have heard from friends and we typically agree to go elsewhere when there is a choice. read more

Great vibe, great food but our waitress totally had an attitude and rushed us such a shame.

I have been here several times in the years I've lived in Columbia. The service is always exceptional. I've tried a variety of things on the menu and I've been disappointed most of the time. The only item on the menu I enjoyed was the Nachos Bianco. Addison's is a staple restaurant for Columbia, unfortunately, the flavor is just not there for me. read more

Friend and I grabbed drinks around 7:30. Bartender Eli turned out to be a friend of a friend and treated a round. Always like the environment. Enjoyed the nachos. read more

Addison's is incredible new American food -- which is basically cuisine we all recognize, but with a twist, like the black bean and goat cheese quesadilla, jalapeno pork loin, or sweet potato chips that come with a horseradish-kicked dip. The citrus and herb roasted chicken and Asian ginger veggie wrap are particularly delicious. The secret is in the menu, which manages to be both familiar and unique. The ambiance, wall colors, lighting, and the art (by local David Spear, who merges Greek themes with Columbia scenery in fantastically large, rich paintings) make it a great weekend dinner spot. Happy hour starts at ten ($2.50 pints and half-off appetizers), and there's also a decent wine list (which includes Conundrum, my favorite white blend). read more

There's enough variety at Addison's to make it a great place for a group of friends, and it's special enough for a date or special occasion with the family. I'm a big fan of the Nachos Bianco as an appetizer or a light lunch, although there are plenty of other interesting options that differentiate Addison's from anywhere else in town. You won't find the same tried and true appetizers here, which can be a great thing if you are adventurous, maybe a downside for those who like to know what to expect. The entrees are good sized for the price, consistently good in quality, and always a little different than what you'll find elsewhere. If you haven't tried Addison's, I suggest you make it a point to visit soon. You'll be glad you did. read more
