As a Texan, it pains me to write this but.... I think…read moreMissouri may have us beat on ribs yall. What a fantastic barbecue experience. I thought these ribs here were much better than anything we tried in Kansas City. While the smoke flavor isn't as pronounced as Texas style the dry rub and layering of flavor on the ribs was superb. I was pleasantly surprised by the brisket. While it lacked the intense smoke I'm used to and deeply rich bark, it was quite tender. The ribs however were a 10/10!

I am a certified American Royal BBQ judge. I am considered an expert in barbecue and have been a…read morejudge in many many contests. Good news and bad news... Bad news? I walked in and they gave me the absolute worst seat in the house in an empty restaurant. WHY? I mean right next to the kitchen. CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! The beared-fellow that was host seemed miffed that I didn't want that seat. Maybe I read the situation wrong however. I moved back to the front by a window. Better. The waitress was an elderly gal from Texas that was quite sweet. The restaurant itself is an unattractive mess. I mean, just tacky tacky tacky. Like an old Sizzler steakhouse covered with cartoon pig art. One of the most unattractive "dining" rooms I have had the displeasure of sitting in. The good news? The ribs are some of the best I've had. Caramelized burnt sugar on the tips. A great sauce. Nice pull away. Etc. Just pork perfection. The BBQ sauce on the table is superior to anything else they can bring out. Stick with that. It's an excellent sauce. So this is a tough review. I didn't try anything else, but the ribs.. and they were next level great. So of you go here and my review doesnt jive - remember I ONLY had the ribs. This is a 2 star place but I am going higher because the ribs are just so doggone outstanding. Best ribs in Branson. (Oh, and I think the name of the place is lame too.)

This place was highly recommended by locals and travelers to the area. There are several locations,…read morebut we decided on this one. It was bigger, it had a huge area in the front to shop, and they were able to seat the amount of people that we had in our crowd. We only had about a 10 minute wait while the servers cleaned the tables. Once we were seated, we were immediately served our drinks. I had taste for catfish, although I know that they are widely known for their brunch and the 14-inch pancake that they serve. It was around 8pm, so I wanted dinner. I will go back and try it when I am in the area again. Back to my meal...I had three sutchi catfish fillets lightly breaded in Gary's cornmeal concoction, served with hushpuppies. Instead of the fries, I had the okra. The food was pretty good. The fish was my favorite, then the okra. I think if you are in the area, it is definitely worth trying. I will return to try the brunch.

Me and my buddy decided to visit Branson for a movie and we decided to stop in at a random place to…read moreeat. We decided on Crazy Craig's treehouse, one that looked like cozy simple affordable food. Upon walking into the establishment, we discovered that the parking lot is a tight entry with the infamous Branson hills. The exterior was appealing and cool to look at yet the interior was cramped and barely any room to sit. They did have a nice area to sit upstairs though the pool table upstairs didn't contain the ball rack and the table was incredibly dirty/unmaintained. Moving onto the service. We were told to sit anywhere and someone would come and check on us, it was several minutes before someone came to check what we wanted with little to no business going on. However they were nice so that was a nice plus. The pricing for this place is a little overpriced for the simple food menu they have. We paid 10 dollars for chips and queso and the serving size that was on the platter was barely enough to feed us both. Our main entrees were easily 15 dollars a plate and not to mention that it took quite a lot of time for everything to come out. The overall taste of the food/drinks were very disappointing. My Dr Pepper was extremely flat no matter a refill or not, the chips were stale, and the queso tasted like fake cheese (only cheese I can compare it to is lunchables). My chicken sandwich I ordered was incredibly subpar: especially since when I pay 15 dollars for a sandwich I want a patty and not two chicken tenders plastered on a bun. Especially the pepper jack cheese on my tender sandwich had absolutely no spice which made me believe it was fake cheese as well. Even the pepper from the shaker only had a hint of the taste of pepper. The worst experience in this first and last visit was the fact that the pepper sauce (hot sauce) was all expired. Our tables sauce had expired on July 2025! I checked other tables and only one of the tables had a September 2027 date the rest had May 2025. So I didn't use any condiments on my food which overall ruined my meal. The only truly good food product I had was the French fries so if you go here just order the fries from the appetizer section and seeing how they are a bar as well: drink while you're here because you will need it to get through main entrees. Overall: friendly slow service, bad food, bad soda, and tight space and parking lot. Not worth your time!

We waited long periods of time between courses as we watched our server rushed between guests and from one side of the dining room to the other. We hope this was just a one-off!

The steak was cooked just right, seasoned well, and the quality of the meat was much better than a steak I recently had at LongHorn Steakhouse. The LongHorn steak was unfortunately a bad cut of meat--it was soggy and unpleasant, even though it was seasoned and cooked properly. When we brought our concerns to the general manager there, we didn't feel like the issue was handled very well. Our experience at Cheddar's was completely different. The server was amazing, attentive, and friendly, and the general manager was extremely nice and made us feel welcome. I highly recommend the 8 oz. sirloin at Cheddar's. Great food, great service, and a management team that genuinely cares about the customer experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

We arrived around 1:15 PM, and even though they were busy, the service was excellent and incredibly fast. We had our food, ate, and were finished by about 1:50 PM. I was really impressed with how quickly everything came out while still being so good. I ordered the Brussels sprouts with bacon jam, and they were absolutely delicious! The bacon jam added such a great flavor. For my meal, I had the tenderloin sandwich with fries, and it was SO good. The tenderloin was extremely tender with a perfectly flaky, well-seasoned crust. It was definitely the best tenderloin I have ever eaten! The rest of our group ordered the okra appetizer, chicken sandwich with fries, chicken-fried chicken with mashed potatoes and cream cheese corn, and another tenderloin with mashed potatoes and cream cheese corn. Everything we tried was delicious. We honestly didn't have a single thing that we didn't enjoy! I also loved the atmosphere. They have so many cute, catchy sayings on their signs and throughout the restaurant, and the decor was fun and full of personality. It made the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. You can tell they put thought into creating a fun, welcoming place. Great food, great service, fun atmosphere, and surprisingly fast service even while busy. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Branson!

I chose the restaurant based on its 4.5-star rating. We arrived, and the parking lot was full. I…read morewas sure this was going to be good. Inside, we were handed a pager and told we may have a 20-minute wait. A very kind and pleasant young Black man readily offered up his seat to older patrons, spoke kindly, and did so at least twice. The wait was short. A kind, smiling young waitress took our initial order, and soon hot food began to arrive, even though the place was packed. A nice touch was the live solo country musician performing. I ordered fried green tomatoes, and my wife had the catfish basket. As I looked around, the helpings were large. No way I could eat all that! I noticed on Yelp that one could order the fish half size. Water and lemonade round out the entree. The fried green tomatoes were battered, flaky, and cooked well. But after eating a few, it was too oily. The catfish was done well but was too salty, as were the hush puppies. I've never drunk toilet water, but if I had, it surely would taste like the water I drank. No thanks. The water tasted bad even with the lemon. The restaurant didn't make the water. However, it desperately needs a filter--cudos to the kitchen and servers for plating and serving the food nice and hot. Now the bill. I noticed a 3.5% surcharge if you used a card. I was also shocked to find an additional charge of 1.99 because, according to the receipt, I was over 12 years old ordering a kids' meal. Wait, what! Less food, but an upcharge? Then another upcharge for substituting onion rings for fries. Now my final takeaway. I always ask myself, would I return for more? No, I would not. I try to judge the food first because there are "hole-in-the-wall" places that serve great food. Was the food seasoned? The food was, but when the salt is the main thing that stands out, it's just too salty. If so, what are you trying to hide? Last, they didn't even question whether we wanted dessert from the menu: just a smile and a goodbye from the waitress. I left a nice tip for the service and went on my way.
