Stopped in for dinner after a long drive from Texas. The menu has lots of options. We were…read moreimmediately seated around 7:00 pm. The restaurant was pretty busy but our server Benjamin came over immediately and took our drink order. We ordered the Chicken nachos and they let us sub pork for the chicken. The toppings are good and plentiful but the chips were really thick. Some were crunchy while others were just hard. I was too tired to send them back and order something else so I just mostly ate the toppings. Hubby ordered the Shrimp and tenders. We were sharing and this entry was plenty to share. You get 4 decent size fried shrimp and two very large chicken tenders. They came out very hot, perfect!!! The fries were luke warm and not very good. We would get this again but probably try other sides. We noticed many people around us getting the flatbread pizzas. They all looked delicious! We definitely would come back and try other things. Fun friendly atmosphere.

Everything about this restaurant is first class (service, food quality, atmosphere) with…read moresurprisingly low prices. We had lunch here at noon on a Monday and just got in before a line started to form. There were 4 of us and first time here for all. The menu is broad enough for all to be happy - seafood , chicken , salads, pasta, and beef. I had the cedar planked salmon with bourbon sauce and it was amazing. For sides I had a baked potato and a cup of gumbo. The gumbo tasted like I was fine dining in New Orleans. In fact if I get the chance to dine here again, I'll have a bowl of gumbo and the side salad. It had plump sautéed shrimp on top and was perfectly seasoned with spices. We shared a piece of Key Lime Pie and Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream Sunday for dessert. This restaurant does everything very well!

The food was fresh and flavorful, the server was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. It was absolutely packed at 1:30 on a Monday afternoon, which speaks for itself. And as a bonus, they even have high-quality napkins. It's the little things that make a difference. I'll definitely be back.

I'd describe my experience at Civil Kitchen as mediocre. The hostess greeted me but was somewhat…read moreunfriendly, leaving me at my table without a word, where I waited for 5-10 minutes without any service, even though the restaurant was not even close to half full. My server was friendly and professional, however. I ordered the fish tacos. The fish was crunchy and delicious, but there was very little in each taco, with each piece only running about 2/3 the length of the small tortilla. The tacos, despite their many toppings, tasted rather flat, although the slaw was fresh. One more thing: The limes that came with my drink and tacos were drying out and faded. Overall, I was unimpressed and hope others have a better experience!

The croutons were soaked in the soup but still crispy on the edges with gooey cheese stretching up a mile with each bite. My Parmageddon Grilled Caesar Salad with crispy fried chicken was a flavor bomb. The crunch from the super delicious chicken(juicy but with a perfectly crispy crust), the pop of capers, and the tang of the dressing brought a nice harmony to the mix. My husband enjoyed his Princess Presley vegan salad with grilled chicken and roasted artichoke hearts that were perfectly cooked and came still warm on top of the salad. The crumbled goat cheese and balsamic dressing made for a pretty good bite. The portions are generous, the presentation is meticulous, and the servers are friendly and attentive. All the dishes have funky names, but solid flavors. We will be going back to try the other offerings soon.

This place isn't what it used to be. Here's my latest visit details:…read more- Full Ride Burger - This is decent with the sharp cheddar and marinated onions....but so overcooked, the meat is so dry. - Pepperoni & Cheese balls - The first batch came out with cold inner filling. The second batch came out with an overcooked outside. These could be good for what they are...but simple execution lacks. - Wedge Salad - never had one of these with balsamic all over it. Way too much. Then, no actual dressing and sole blue cheese chunks. I ate it....but sure got tired of the odd balsamic taste. Rasta Pasta - edible but not the good flavor it used to have. Fries - This place used to have the best fries. Well, now, door out of the bag double coating fey version. Uhm....no...notta...not special at all like they used to be. Any number of the old Grad School location menu items...no longer available. Not a place I need to go any longer. Unfortunate....as again....it used to be a killer place.

My second trip to Springfield, Mo for work. This little area (literally this 1/4 mile of street)…read morehas some amazing restaurants! Unknowingly, I started "scrolling" to find a place to eat and was sucked in by pics of the food and ambiance! So I mapped directions to Cafe Cusco only to find it was next to another great restaurant I had been to during my last trip. Walked in and the hostess, with a welcoming greeting and smile directed my single person party to a four top. Turns out she ended up also being my server and bartender!!! Lilly was her name and she was on top of it all. I believe there was at least one other server. I shied away from apps as I was not sure about the serving sizes as I was not famished... I started with a Pisco Sour that Lilly recommended and she also recommended the Lomo Saltado for an entree. I chose to also have the Ginger Caipirinha. For dessert I had the Quinoa Pudding and a cup of coffee. Beverages were well balanced with lime tartness, great cinnamon presence and over all flavor was refreshing! The Lomo Saltado was very flavorful- def get your salt intake for the day, but it works so well! There was a house hot sauce at each table. I taste tested the hot sauce and decided to liberally add to the dish! A symphony of flavors! The slices of tomato in that Saltado sauce was ... mmmmmmmmm GOOD!! Naturally the tenderloin was packed with Saltado flavor too! I ordered up the Ginger Caipirinha (which did not disappoint either!). Both beverages stand on their own merits and I cannot choose which was better... maybe the sour?? So... then there was dessert... I cannot recall the last time I ordered dessert... quinoa pudding???? I mean... I like quinoa... but do I ever go out of my way to eat it?? No... but add some sweet coconut cream, cinnamon and... wait for it... Black cherry COMPOTE?!?????!!!! Damn! Am I glad I got that dessert! You MUST save room for this! Such a great amalgamation of flavor and textures! Cheers Cafe Cusco!! You've got a great gem here for great prices to boot! Lilly was very busy, what may have lacked in some attentiveness (due to how busy it was) she made up for in her awesome personality, pleasant disposition and great suggestions! Chillin' in haute Springfield?? Check this place out! Cheers!

I know I love the tea, salads, chili and broccoli cheddar soup. Out of curiosity I decided to try the Cajun red beans and rice. That was a terrible mistake. The recipe being used at McAlister's on Sunshine needs to be thrown in the trash. If they want to sell a bowl of beans the menu should just say that. Rice and flavor are supposed to be included. I was so mad. My half and half tea with strawberry purée was delicious though.
