Food is tasty, and the menu is expansive. The salmon is always cooked well and the kids meals come on a frisbee, which is super fun! They do not take reservations during weekend dinners, which would not be a big deal, but they do have a service where you pay like $5 to cut in line, so not taking reservations seems like a money-grab to me. read more

In a charming spot in downtown Columbia. The service staff was impeccable. The manager saw to us several times and was most friendly. Wonderful menu choices! read more

We were seated before the stated time. Food was very good got the crab ragoon dip and it was very good we also love the nacho Bianca too. Burger cooked perfect, salmon BLT is always great one of my favorite and my daughter got the salmon and potatoes it was a huge piece of salmon and potatoes were plentiful in fact we brought some home. We were able to visit and had the choice of inside or outside. Drinks were great as well. We come here a lot since we live in Columbia highly recommended. We did go south to that location but both are great! read more

Went on a weekday evening. Addisons is in the downtown area, parking was just 1-2 minutes away and the ambiance was nice. Wait time that evening around 7pm was just 15 minutes. Staff were polite and timely. Ordered a salad with salmon and a Mediterranean pizza. House salad with salmon was decent and then there was the pizza. I've had Mediterranean pizzas plenty of times and the cream sauce or whatever they put on there was pretty terrible. One of my friends had the steak which was equivalent to what you would get at Chile's and my other friend said their salad was average. The ambiance and polite staff kept me from giving this place a two star. I was let down because the place looked really hip and modern for a small town eatery but the food was no good. On my next travels to Columbia for work, I'll eat elsewhere. read more

Everything is amazing on the menu. Fun & creative drink menu options but the nachos Bianca are what get me there. Pasta chips with the yummiest Asiago cheese sauce. Highly suggest full plate. Last time I went the atmosphere was a little off with bright over head lighting but over all great table set up, awesome staff. Only wish is they'd set atmosphere lighting at night below full blast. 10 out of 10. Highly suggest. It's easy street parking with galaxy parking meters, so take coins. No park mobile options. $2 worth of coins will prob cover 2 hours. Free parking after 5pm (I think, double check dat) read more

Happy Hour staple, obviously. I probably don't even have to tell you how great the Nachos Bianco is -- because it's what Addison's is famous for. I'm not even sure what else is even on the menu, because it's the only thing I ever order! This is my friend's favorite place together just about any night of the week. Great location close to campus, and I love that they serve a little later than other places around -- makes it a great place to stop for a quick bite or drink with friends. Great beer selection, amazing happy hour specials - Addison's is definitely the place to meet up with friends for a great night out! read more

Addison's - Nachos Bianco - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

Addisons is a staple to COMO, so if you haven't been..you must! The nachos are all the rav, and for good reason! The bianco ones are my personal fav. The Cuban sandwich with mojito fries is my go to dish! Lots of yummy food. read more

I met a small group of ladies here on a Thursday evening. Once we all arrived we were promptly seated. Our server was kind, fast, and was able to offer tips and recommendations. The food came quick and it was very good. The atmosphere was very loud. It was hard to maintain conversation with each other due to the acoustics in the building. read more

Addison's - Nachos - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

We headed down to COMO for a state choir contest and needed a place to dine so consulted the Elites and we ran across Addisons. Downtown was packed on a Friday night (state contests for High Schoolers and Sorority Mom and daughter weekend in town). We found a spot on Broadway and walked a couple of blocks and found a spot at the bar since it was over an hour wait. The staff were great, answered our questions and provided some recommendations. We kicked things off with the Nachos "less big" as we needed room for dinner. They were stinkin awesome. Reminded us of the Bella Napoli nachos from the Macaroni Grill back in the day. Our mains included the Jalapeño smothered pork chop, the chicken pasta dish-don't remember the name and the Mediterranean salad. Everyone was pleased and our daughter ran into a former classmate from her High School. Check out Addisons you'll be pleased. read more

Yo. I can't believe this place only has 3.5 stars. This is preposterous to me! I've been coming to this place since I found out about it in back in college. Which was probably around 2008? I've never been disappointed with Addison's. So near and dear to my heart! They have a great happy hour menu, delicious food, and good service. My favorite is their nachos bianco with chicken. The combination of the asiago cheese they use, the black olives, banana peppers, green onion, tomato, and chicken is perfection. All of it just creates a magical explosion of flavor in your mouf. Oh! And the crunch of the wonton like-tortilla chips pulls it all together. YUM. I always end up with their baked tortellini dish. I just love the cheeses that go into it and I'm a huge fan of artichoke so this is pretty much heaven to me. It is quite greasy so if you're not into that, then shy away. Another dish that is very simple but delicious is their bleu steak wrap! Who would've thought that such a simple concept would be so amazing? Tomato tortilla with steak and mashed potatoes inside. Mom is a huge fan of this one as well. Also recommend the sweet potato chips for a light appetizer. Crispy, light, slightly sweet and salty. I could eat the whole thing... If you live in Columbia and haven't tried this place, you are missing out FOR REAL. A real gem of a place! read more

I've ordered from the Cherry St. location a couple of times now. I normally get the Thai Peanut Black Bean Wrap and Mojito fries and It's very good. This place offers pick-up/to-go orders. They have a parking spot directly in front of the restaurant for you to pull up and retrieve your order. The entire process of very simple. read more

Addison's - Black Bean & Thai Peanut Wrap and Mojito Fries - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

Stumbled upon this location while in Columbia. Ambiance was simplistic and nice. The table we sat at was away from everyone, which made it very quiet. The salad was fresh and huge. read more

Pretty good food and it used to be great but the prices have gone through the roof. I got a wrap and a soda for lunch one day and it was $22. Ridiculous. Not worth it- no thanks. read more

Great food and atmosphere. Tried a drink special. Wife's said it was some fancy stuff.

Always so good in every way. Nachos Bianca is always a great go to! Service is always great and food is always good!

It seems that everytime I'm in Columbia I come to Addison's at least one time. I think by now everyone knows how good their nachos are but let's talk salad this time. My friend and I both got the Fried Chicken Cobb Salad. Friend got it with no bleu cheese, no red onions and ranch dressing. I got it with no bacon and with the honey mustard dressing that it came with. Our waitress, Savannah, was so friendly and super good at her job. My friend wanted the bacon I didn't want and I wanted the bleu cheese she didn't want, so Savannah put them all on the side for us so that we can swap. How thoughtful. As you can see from the pic the salad is also gorgeous. read more

Addison's - Crispy Fried Chicken Cobb Salad - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

Stopped in with some friends for an early dinner last week. We were a table of 5. Didn't like necessarily being seated right by the front door and in the middle of the bar and bathrooms, but the service, food, and drinks were good and all reasonably priced. My college boys all liked it and said they'd be back, so that's a win in my book! We all tried something different- the filet was delicious, though could have been warmer, the ribs were great, the Diablo shrimp was delicious, albeit a little too spicy. Definitely worth stopping in for a bite if you haven't been! read more

We stopped in for lunch while in town for a football game. This place has a nice atmosphere and ambiance and works equally well for a casual lunch, night out with friends or a date night. Hubby had a burger with the cucumber salad. He thought the burger was good and we both liked his cucumber salad. I had the BBQ chicken pizza and really liked my choice. It was flavorful and had plenty of chicken in the topping. Sarah had the grilled salmon wrap with mojito fries. The wrap was probably the only thing we personally would not order again. It was super messy to eat and just not special enough to warrant the mess. We both felt like the tomato jam was too sweet for us and overpowered the rest of the ingredients. We would love to go back and try the nachos that we saw so many other people enjoying! 2nd visit here (2/3/18) We had the wings as an appetizer - great flavor! I had the salmon special which was perfect for me that night. Hubby had a burger with the cucumber salad, Sarah had the burger with steamed broccoli and Asiago and David had the French Dip with sweet potato fries. Everyone was super pleased with their choices and we will definitely return! read more

Mom's nacho bianco had a live roach in it...she had already eaten some...we will NEVER go back.

Not fabulous. Food was decent. Service wasn't great. The atmosphere was inviting and comfortable. Clean,family friendly and the prices are reasonable. Not likely to try it again since the area offers a lot of other dining options. read more

Was really looking forward to the food purchased .this place came highly recommended. was very disappointed. Fries were cold and rubbery. Wings were not cooked as requested . The package ( Styrofoam box) opened up and it spilled out its contents onto my car floor. For as much praise as this place gets you would think they would get better containers for their food and learn how to cook French fries correctly. Will not be back .threw away all the food and went to McDonald's. read more

Love their nachos and they have fantastic martinis! Went for a nice date night and the atmosphere was fantastic!

Delicious! I ordered the Mediterranean pizza and my kids each ordered the Pepperoni & Chorizo pizzas. We were very happy with the atmosphere, the food, the service and the overall friendly attitude of the staff. I would highly recommend and plan to go back! read more

Terrible service. They "didn't know" if they could do grilled chicken instead of fried on the salad. Once it came out. It was good, but that's the only reason for the 2nd star. The nachos were stale and awful. The pizza was undercooked. Our waitress came one time to ask if we needed another drink. Um, at that point, I need like 5 more drinks. That took forever to get (just the one drink for the 2 of us) I said yes, we would like another, she only brought mine. Another 10 minute wait to get my date's. Then.... I chose to use the restroom. Dun dun, dunnnn.... a mess. Gross. Just a terrible night. read more

Addison's is such a Columbia staple that I am always sad if I make it back to Columbia for a few days and don't have a chance to swing by here. I've had several dishes that are really good--the chicken salad, pizza, and pasta are all always really good choices. However, I could live on the Addison's nachos--both the pulled pork version or their classic Nachos Bianca-- and really would be happy if that was the only dish I ever ate here. Their wonton style chips and homemade cheese just really push these over the top. They have a lot of salad options available and plenty of choices when it comes to pizza if you are dealing with a picky or more veggie-heavy eaters. They have a lot of good, larger entre options as well but their spin on traditional bar food is what I prefer. If you like calamari PLEASE give theirs a try. It has an asian flair to it and is served with a sweet wasabi dipping sauce. I love calamari and they have one of the best, most unique versions of calamari I have ever had. If you like crab rangoon, try their version of this dish as a house-made dip. Their sweet potato chips are crispy, sweet and salty, and the perfect side for any meal. If you are a french fry person try their Mojito fries- simply amazing! You won't go wrong here. read more

Another surprisingly good restaurant in Columbia that completely deserves a 4.5. I went here with my hubby and a friend. We started by sharing the sweet potato chips, which is a huge and delicious appetizer. It was hard for the three of us to finish the large portion, but we did anyway. I had the mediterranean salad and was pleasantly surprised by the tasty addition of basil and artichoke hearts. But I think the best deal was my husband's ahi tuna sandwich. It's not really a sandwich, but more of a large ahi tuna steak on a piece of focaccia. It was delicious, and seemed like a lot of tuna for $8.99! We sat near the bar where there were televisions playing sports and other shows, which kept my husband distracted while my friend and I gossiped. The atmosphere is pretty laid back and the staff seemed very friendly and fairly efficient. I can see why my friend took us here. read more

Addison's - Ahi tuna sandwich = great value - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

This is a solid restaurant with nice atmosphere and a well-rounded menu. There is nothing particularly unique or adventurous about the food, but what they do, they do consistently well. Keep in mind, this is a popular spot downtown, so if you go in a weekend, you will have a wait. For lunch or on weeknights, it's usually not too bad (depending on what else is happening in the area). Now, the food. The Nachos Bianco are extremely popular, and for good reason. They are made with asiago (yes please), and a great mix of topics such as banana peppers, olives, black beans and tomatoes. I am a huge fan of their Grilled Salmon BLT wrap and their asiago broccoli as a side. During my last visit, I order the Louie's Flatbread Cuban, which could have used a little more meat but was otherwise pretty tasty. The food can take a bit longer than other places to come out, but again, that depends on crowd and what you order. I've found things like pasta take longer than other items. They have a late night happy hour every night of the week (instead of a standard happy hour), which is awesome for night owls like me. Their happy hour includes $2 pints, which is not a bad deal at all. One of my favorite things about Addison's is the decor, which features some original paintings by one of the bartenders. Such a cool feature! read more

I thought the food was tasty. It didn't blow me out of the water but it was good. We got the appetizer nachos which were a hit. Disappeared in minutes. It's HUGE! Tasty too. I got the tuna entree and it was cooked to order. I like it rare. The cook cooked my friends medium rare orders really well too. The portions for this entree wasn't huge but it was tasty. Again, could have had more flavor, especially the rice, but it was okay. A nice place to go with family or if a friend comes to the town. read more

Well, I hadn't been in town in about 4-5 years, but I used to eat here all of the time in college, then again when I was back for grad school, and for a third stint when I covered Columbia as part of my sales territory. It used to be one of my favorites. Needless to say, based in my 2 stars, I was disappointed. Maybe I had it on a pedestal from years ago, or maybe it's the fact that I'm almost 40, and my tastes are more refined. So I started with Calamari, and while the breading light and crisp, it basically just fell right off the calamari rings. Something clearly needs to be changed in the batter so it stays on. Also, the aioli was not good. Looked like plain mayo, with wasabi mixed in. Would have rather just had marinara. House salad was next, and it we as fine. Nothing special, but it was a salad. Finished with the Mediterranean Pizza, and I added pepperoni. Also, subpar. Crust was a little tok doughy. Cheese was way too thick. And there were literally 6 slices of pepperoni in the whole pizza.(I counted them) All in all, a disappointing experience. Only gave it 2 stars because the bartender did a decent job, was attentive, the two beers I had were good, and be kept my water full. I can only hope that when I visit the sister restaurant, which was another favorite of mine, I do not have the same disappointing experience. read more

Loved this place. We hit up Addison's before a comedy show at De Ja Vu on a Saturday night. It was busy when we put our name down but the wait didn't take long. I really really really enjoyed the Nachos. So yum! I shared a photo here. The drinks were the reason I subtracted a star. Very small, very weak and very expensive. Other than that, I enjoyed my dinner and it's definitely somewhere I'd visit again. read more

Addison's - Large nachos - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

As a Mizzou Alumni, I have eaten at Addison's more times than I can even begin to estimate. It's that good. Addison's is just the perfect place for almost every occasion: date night, lunch with your parents, late night happy hour, girls night out, etc. Having been here so many times, I can also say I've had almost everything on the menu. Here are a few of my favorites: - Nachos Bianco. The cheese sauce must have crack in it or something. I can not come here and not get it. Sometimes I specifically come here for the nachos. They're that good. - Mediterranean Salad. The balsamic vinegar reduction they put on it adds a nice sweet touch to the salad. - Marinated Chicken Philly. I can't even describe how good this is. If you love a sandwich that comes loaded with tons of stuff, you'll like this. - Sweet Potato Chips. Yum. - Addison's also has an impressive selection of beers and wines that are priced very affordably, especially during their happy hours. Other than the food, I come to Addison's as often as I do for the atmosphere. It's always bustling. It's a fun, yet casual place to hang out. The bar is a great place to post up and the booths are great places to cozy up with a group of friends. I also love that the restaurant is decorated with art by local artists. It definitely helps give the place that local "Columbia" feel. Sure, Addison's sister restaurant Sophia's is slightly better, but it's also a fancier restaurant, so it shouldn't be directly compared. As I see it, the only disadvantage to this place is that it's ALWAYS crowded, and they do not take reservations. But as far as downtown restaurants go, this is one of the best places for a casual, yet special meal...so in my opinion, it's worth the wait. read more

Addison's - Nachos Bianco with Chicken. AMAZING! - New American Near Me - Columbia, Missouri

Talk about a let down. I was super pumped to try out the best of Columbia and to my dismay....wawa, it was mediocre at best. Let's start with the appetizer. Like most folks I love me some crab Rangoon. When I saw crab Rangoon dip I instantly knew I had to try it! I've had the dip from hyvee that was good so hell's yeah I'm about to get my eat-on! Fast forward and it arrives with celery, carrots, broccoli and fried wantons to eat with the dip. I'm not a hearty meat eater but who eats crab Rangoon's with Veges? Okay, who in the flyover states eats crab Rangoon with Veges? Me neither! Anyway, I viscously dip a crispy fried wanton in the dip to notice it is warm, not hot, warm. Hum????? After a few bites I've noticed this doesn't taste like the yummy goodness that is in the middle of those beloved Rangoon's. And it sure doesn't taste even as good as hyvee's dip. Color me surprised. Then as I eat more, because by God I am going to have to pay for it, might as well eat it, I notice that the edges of the dip (you know, where it's touching the bowl at the top) are dried. Then it hits me. This is reheated dip!!!!! We all know that dried crusty look that dips get when it is in a bowl and reheated in the microwave. Admit it, we've all done this when guests come over to our house. It's cool! You know when it's not cool? When you pay $10+ dollars at a restaurant! I mean come on man. At least stir the dip before you serve it to customers to try to get rid of the crusty. It's a college town so give it that ole college try! My main dish was the mahi-mahi taquito. It was good. Nothing to write home about, but it was good. Fried fish on a chip with black beans, cheese, sour cream and pico....good bar food. Overall I was expecting a lot more. The prices were pretty high and they serve reheated dip and bar food???? At least I had a passable martini to wash down my tears. read more

Show me...a delicious tuna sandwich? I ordered the Ahi tuna sandwich with olives and artichoke, I can't say enough good things about it. The open-faced quality gave a light and fresh taste. Service was quick and friendly. So why not 5 stars? I have to be fair here. My mind wasn't blown by the menu. Seemed like standard menu options, although I'm sure they're all delicious. Despite that minor setback, the environment (as someone from Texas) felt almost hipster, in the best way possible. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quick bite or even fine dining. EDIT: After searching for a place to eat dinner the same day to no avail, we ending up back at Addison's, tried and true. This time trying the margherita pizza, although I ate it before I could snap a picture. Hey another enjoyable experience with good food and friendly waitstaff. read more

Great curbside experience, chicken salad was great, Thai salad also very good, steak wrap was very good also.

I ate here on a Monday night around 8pm as part of a work dinner a vendor took me out to. Speaking for myself, I got the Addisons Burger with sweet potato chips. We both split was is known to be the famous nachos biaco. I must say these are a special kind of nachos if I have ever seen them. Its not like a traditional ballpark or movie theater style nachos, its better, I leave it at that. The burger is pretty darn good and more then generous in portion. I would have liked a different kind of bun as the one I had seemed dry and tough. The sweet potato chips might be made in house but I could not tell. They taste authentic but compared to a sweet potato fry it did not hold that pow of the real thing. Prices are well worth what you get and the atmosphere is casual/upscale making for a great after work dinner or gathering for friends after a long work day. read more

It was my first time going and I had gotten the barbecue sauce.... Oh sorry I meant to say the ribs but they absolute drowned the meat in sauce to cover up the flavorless meat. read more

Waitress was very rude! We were seated at 9:45 and looked at the menu. She came to get our drink order then asked if we needed another minute with menu. She returned at 09:59 and said that we needed to order of the late night menu because it was about to be 10. We just looked at her and we're like well we know what we want off the regular menu. She looked at us so rudely. Will not be back read more

This restaurant is by far one of my favorites! Every time I go the food is excellent and the staff is fantastic. I've eaten at Addisons more than any other restaurant in town because they never fail to impress! read more

If you order one thing at Addison's, it has to be THE NACHOS. I swear sometimes I think of making the two hour drive from KC to Columbia, just to enjoy this pile of food goodness. They come in two sizes (small and large) and can be topped with one or a combo of protein (chicken, sausage and black beans). I could keep rambling about the nachos, but there are a few other things to know about Addison's. The food is tradition American bar food with a funky twist. I am a sucker for their steak & mashed potato wrap. Last time we visited, we ordered the Thai peanut wings. If you like peanut based sauces, these are for you. Addison's always has a great beer selection with lots of Columbia and Missouri beers on tap. read more
