Had another great meal here with a large group. I'm here annually for work & we end up here for supper. I'm always amazed at the excellent food, drinks & service when handling such a large crowd (there were about 45 people in our group). read more

First of all - the service. Lauren was AMAZING, we loved her. She is the best. We came to Addison's for lunch and got the nachos appetizer, which was huge! We got the small portion and it was definitely not small. We had a party of 5 and we couldn't finish them it was so much food! We ordered Cesar salads for main courses and they were also huge! Our youngest son got a kids burger which came on an upside down frisbee instead of a plate and he LOVED that. This place is great, friendly little lunch spot! read more

This was actually the worst meal I've ever had. We had a huge group, so almost everything on the brunch menu was ordered. One person tried to order a burger and add bacon and a fried egg, they said they only have scrambled eggs...should have known this was a red flag that they don't use real eggs. The bacon was rancid, lettuce in salads were brown, the fries came out cold, all around a terrible meal. Everything was clearly frozen food. The real crime? Every entree is $17-26. Please save your money. read more

Recently hosted a presentation here. Private room was awesome. Large projection screen with 10' HDMI and power nearby. Hi tech dimmable lights and ceiling fan. Solid doors for sound insulation from regular guests. Service was on point with timing and adapted to a slight change in program without issue. Food was tremendous. Our clients were all very happy. Would definitely recommend. read more

We finally tried this location for the first time on a Friday evening. We met up with some friends are were seated pretty quickly. The service was good overall, the waitress was friendly. We were excited to try the south location and see the differences between the two. - Dirty martini (4/5): they have a martini menu, but all of the martinis are sweet! I had to get the dirty and it was good, with olives! - Super deluxe happy fun time burger (3.5/5): the burger was good, pretty juicy, lots of toppings. The onion straws added a nice crunch. There was lots of sauce, very flavorful. Fries were good just a bit greasy, love the crispy pieces. - Baked tortellini pasta (3/5): good flavor but too salty for my taste. The pesto sauce was very creamy and savory, with good flavor but just too salty. Tortellini were tasty. Overall would come back for the fun atmosphere and good appetizers. read more

The service was beyond what I expected! I have alpha gal, gluten, and soy allergies. Quit was our server and she did a fabulous job finding a meal that I could eat. The food was wonderful and I love the art work!! read more

My wife and I decided to stop for dinner before leaving Columbia and I found Addison's on Google so we thought we would give it a try. The restaurant was busy when we arrived on a Saturday night, but we were seated immediately. Our server, Victoria, was awesome! She was friendly and took great care of us and did the other employees we encountered. I ordered the chicken Asiago pasta and a Caesar salad. My wife ordered the hamburger with cucumber salad as the side. My salad arrived quickly. The salad had great flavor and the lettuce and croutons were fresh. Shortly after finishing my salad, our entrees arrived. My pasta was piping hot and looked great. My wife enjoyed the burger and cucumber salad. The pasta had great flavor and was quite filling. The restaurant was very clean and had a nice date night look, but also casual enough to wear jeans and a hoodie. If we come back to Columbia ,we would definitely go back to Addison's South. I just hope Victoria would be there to take care of us! read more

Yikes. This place has gone waaaay downhill since I last went there a few years ago. The menu hasn't changed a bit in thirty years, so you'd think they'd have it down by now, but apparently not. Addison's was always solid, if unspectacular, for a long time, despite its ancient, untouched menu, so I figured I knew what I was in for when I ordered the Mediterranean pizza last night, something I've eaten there many times over the years. What I got was a wet, sloppy, undercooked mess, not the Mediterranean pizza I remember from countless visits over the years. It was smaller, not cooked thoroughly, and the ingredients seemed to be of lower quality than they used to be. And so much water on the plate. Gross. I would've sent it back, but I already sent back the soggy, cold fries they brought as our appetizer and I just wanted dinner to be over and done with so we could go home. I've been to Addison's, both locations, many times over the years, but last night was my final visit. Not good, guys. read more

One word....NACHOS. Those fried wonton nachos are super crave-able! We've tried other menu items but we come back for the nachos. read more

Wow! We came here for brunch and we were wowed! The menu was small, but trust me it doesn't need to have anything else on the menu. There were four of us and we all shared our meal. The. Best. Biscuits. And. Gravy. Ever! Next time I'm in Columbia, I'll be coming back! read more

Nothing special. The food was below average. The service adequate. Ambiance was cold.

We came here soon after they re-opened after COVID, and was generally impressed by their operations. It was storming the day we came, and they were quick to move people from outside in. They blocked off a section of their dining room and seated every other booth. However, people were seated at tables right next to each other. Kinda defeats the social distancing if you close a huge section of the restaurant and put people right next to each other. Our waitress was very accomodating and nice. As usual, we got the nachos blancio and thai chicken salad. Both are delicious - we talk about it all the time. I want to try their dessert next time! Keep on hearing great things and the table next to us got some. Looked incredible. Plenty of parking and outdoor seating with a roof. read more

Love this place! Good food, good drinks. The patio is really a very pleasant environment.

I usually love addisons for it's laid back no fuss vibes. I recently dinned in and ordered take out from this location and it was great. The same experience as the downtown location but more lowkey and quiet at night. The building is new so it is extremely clean which is always a plus. The location is also great because I'm on the southside of town a lot so now i don't have to go out of the way for food downtown! I recently tried the french dip and is soo good especially with mojito fries. Highly recommend! read more

Overpriced and overrated. Avoid. They're trying really hard to be upscale but it just ain't working. Food is Shoneys Big Boy level. Need new cooks. Cuban sandwich flavorless. Pork chop was stingy in size. Just.....small time. read more

Great food, service , and ambiance! Addison South in Columbia, Missouri exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The service was exceptional, the food was delicious and expertly prepared, and the ambience created a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended! read more

Great restaurant but Dan S. is a fake and a fraud. He used my picture without my consent and I might seek legal action! I enjoyed the wings down to the sauce! read more

Loved it- accommodated my last minute wedding prep - to the tee! Helpful, great environment ...but I rave ...

Recently Addison's must have undergone some changes in the kitchen with the cook staff. They need to change back to whatever or whoever was the cook before because the taste quality has taken a hit. The general vibe of the joint is still great but people don't seem to rave about the food anymore. The service is top notch though. read more

I've bin there one time and was very impressed the appetizers were fast and very delicious and their Black and Blue burger is outstanding I will recommend to people and also go back.Addisons Burger read more

I haven't ever had a bad experience at Addison's South! As a college student, this is one of my favorite places to go for lunch when my parents come to visit. I've had the tortellini, and the pulled pork sandwich and they were both amazing! The servers and hostesses are always extremely nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend Addison's to anyone looking for a nicer lunch spot, or even a date night! read more

This is one of my family's favorite restaurants in CoMo. Food, service and quality of the setting is always great. Food is always superb and the wait staff are attentive to your special needs and preferences. read more

Had the big pulled pork nachos - fantastic: Coke Zero was somewhat flat. Waitress was not that attentive but the seating host was fantastic and attentive. She ensured that we had refills and got the check. Waitress was not seen much. Ambiente nice with basketball on tv. read more

I'm so happy that they have added the second Addison's out south. Their fish Dishes are amazing as well as their salads. Make sure to save room for dessert! read more

Went for lunch. Had a Chicken Philly which was delicious. I like there are side options besides fries. Great little cucumber salad.

Definitely a mixed bag here. First of all, there's ample parking. No really, they've got more parking than they have seating for if I had to guess, so don't worry about trying to find a spot, you'll be just fine. Came in as a group of 9 on a Saturday evening around 7 and our table was waiting for us (made a reservation ahead of time). We got amazing service the entire time. Being able to start the experience with Guinness & a woodford reserve was sublime. The food started with the Garlic & Brown Sugar brined buffalo wings and the flavor was unique, but not exactly $12 worth amazing; solidly a "B". Buddy and I split the Nachos Bianco (Big) and it was a large plate brimming with chorizo, black beans, cheese, kalamatas, & peppers of deliciousness on a bed of unique chips that were slightly softer than traditional corn tortilla chips (Note: This is a full meal size portion for a normal human); graded out at an "A". For the main course I went with the Port Wine Bordelaise Filet and it was outstanding...cooked a bit more medium/medium well than the medium rare that I asked for, but the flavor of the steak itself was amazing and the port wine bordelaise was quite possibly the best "sauce" I've ever had on a steak; also grades to an "A" (and unlike the wings, a fairly solid value at $24). Finished the meal with the brownie batter cheesecake and as a cheesecake connoisseur, let me tell you that this is "A+" territory with the texture, flavor, and portion (quite large). So how in the world with a fantastic meal and service do we end up with 3 stars? How about a rude manager. As our group was having a great time with stories and laughs commiserating the day we'd had, the manager blasted out "I need you all to quiet down". This rubbed me the wrong way for 2 reasons. Firstly, this place is a bar and grill type joint (though admittedly is more intimate than your run of the mill Applebee's) where having worked in this type of environment before, I can tell you we weren't exceeding the acceptable level of noisiness. Secondly, this isn't how you approach this situation if you're a manager. "Praise in public, correct in private": She should've spoken with the leader of our group who made the reservation and is friends with the chef and asked if we could please keep the volume down. That, or she could've seated us back in one of the private dining rooms. Either of those things would've been significantly better customer service moves vs just blasting "I need you all to quiet down" for the rest of the patrons to hear. When I come to a restaurant and elect to spend (with tip) very nearly $100; I expect & deserve better treatment than that. read more

Terrific experience, I WILL be returning, clean environment... before I got here. Great service, made sure my drink was always topped off, I needed it! Even had a little brownie dessert, yum! Hoping to return my next trip to Columbia, maybe I'll try downtown then!! read more

FINE CITY DINING ON AN AVERAGE TUESDAY For this week's exploit we enjoyed a late evening dinner at Addison's South. The first thing I noticed was the beautiful construction and interior decoration. The vibes were fine dining meets modern tavern. This restaurant features three sections: booths, collected tables,and a full bar featuring multiple flat screen TVs. We were greeted by a hostess and taken to a booth. The booth section catered to couples and small family groups. I appreciated this since I was dining with my kids and Booths offer a more controlled environment. Nothing is more disruptive to EVERYONE than trying to keep a kid in the chair when trying to enjoy your meal. In comparison, the tables section was FULL with well-dressed socializing adults. This is a kudos to the restaurant given this was a Tuesday evening, and location. Assuming the plenitude of customers was a factor, when the food arrived we were more than ready to enjoy our meal. (Dining tip: If dining with the family, order appetizers and kids meals at the same time) I ordered my steak medium and asparagus and IT WAS DELICIOUS. Eat with your eyes closed good. And I am picky about my steak. If I don't like it I assume the cooks aren't attentive to food preparation. But as you can tell from the photos presentation and flavor quality was ~*~ Top Tier~*~ Good job Addison's South I will be returning (for social dining) and can't wait to try one of those exquisite sounding burgers!!!

We recently had a wedding in Columbia and needed to find a nice restaurant to celebrate in afterward. Enter Addison South! The restaurant was marvelous, gave us a private room for 20 people and a champagne toast. This was all done with only two day's notice. The staff was very, very attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was great. This is a highly recommended place to eat and celebrate. read more

We have been to Addison's South twice recently and both experiences were great. The first was MU's graduation weekend. We were worried about getting 18 of us into a restaurant, even mid-afternoon. They were able to seat us quickly and the food was great. We were very pleased. Then again last week three of us went for dinner. Even at peak evening times, the wait was reasonable, the drinks and food were great. Wait staff were also quite personable. We will definitely be back! read more

We received great service and were seated quickly at the bar. Unfortunately the food was not great. The sweet potatoes chips and calamari had sauce that had a strange taste. The food was pretty bland and not my preference. They claim to have a gluten free menu which is why we went there. However, the gluten free items are just options without bread. They have no gluten free pizza crust or pasta. My husband and I didn't eat most of our food. read more

I had a craving for my favorite Addison's meal, Rosemary Salmon w/ cheesy new potatoes, so I thought I would get it carry-out for dinner. I don't get it very often as it's an expensive dish; it's an occasional rare treat. Upon ordering, I was asked if I was ok with a 15% gratuity for take out. I thought that was a bit high considering I'm driving to the the location to pick it up, but I agreed as the meal is so good. When I arrived, I headed to the bar to retrieve my order and pay. The food was sitting there, waiting for me. I proceeded to wait for 6 minutes as my food got cold because the bartender was busy talking to customers seated at the bar. I'm all for good customer service, but if someone comes in and stands at the bar looking at you, obviously they are there for something that requires the bartender's attention. Personally (as I've experienced work in customer service and at restaurants before), I would typically excuse myself momentarily to wait on other customers. She didn't though, and I patiently waited until someone from the back came to the bar and asked if I need help. He gave me my lukewarm food, took my payment, and sent me on my way. Very frustrating, as they weren't busy and clearly the bartender could see me waiting. I don't mind paying a gratuity, but it's supposed to be for good service. I don't appreciate having to pay an additional fee just to be ignored. I would be more understanding if the bartender was busy, but she wasn't. Just too busy to cut her conversation for a minute or two. I don't agree with being required to tip for bad service. Sadly, I won't return to Addison's again. read more

Went to addisons for the first time and was so freaking impressed. We got the nachos as an appetizer and they are to die for. I have never had anything like them and they were amazing. I also had the addisons burger and it was amazingly cooked. I had no complaints! My boyfriend got the bbq chicken pizza and he loved it! We will definitely be back because of how amazing everything was. The atmosphere was very relaxed but comforting but a classier abstract touch. read more

We were so excited when we found out that the new construction near our home was going to be a new restaurant. When Addison South opened in January 2019 we immediately braved the crowds for in house dining and take-out. The food and service was marginal at best but we continued to give it a chance to improve, it did not! In fact it got worse! Wrong take out orders, under cooked meats or cremated meat, long waits in the dinning room and outside patio. For a moderately expensive restaurant to price a 6 oz. burger for $15 is nuts since d'Rowes and 44 Stone Pub have a half pound burger under $10.......enough said!!! We have stopped going for a meal at Addison's South and now drive the extra 10-20 minutes to other great restaurants in the Columbia area! read more

Got in right away. Not an amazing brunch menu (no seasonal fruit, no choice of egg styles nor choice of toast). Trying too hard to be pretentious. read more

We ordered carryout food in the evening. Placing our order over the phone was very easy, they said the food would be ready in about 20 minutes. We went to pick it up and they came out straight away with the food. It was hot and delicious. read more

This is a staple in Columbia, and now is conveniently located on the South side of town as well.

We haven't had a chance to eat here since we moved out of town a little over three years ago. We always have enjoyed the food and make it a point to share it with friends whenever we can. We placed an order for carry out for the first time ever today to share with family during our visit to Columbia. Upon ordering, we were informed that they charge a 15% surcharge for carry our orders. We have never been charged a surcharge for a carry out order before...delivery, yes..carry out, not ever. On some level, I understand it because they lose out on a tip, but it was still a surprise and a disappointment. Don't think we will ever order carry out from here again. Disappointing to say the least.... read more

Went for brunch and food was great with exception of the breakfast nachos. Said it had gravy on them but we didn't see it and ask for some. They said it would be an extra $1.50. So they were a little dry. Everything else was excellent and the service was great. read more
