    Cheeseburger
    Linda O.

    Loved the vibe of this place the moment we descended the stairs. In line with Big Cedar's rustic style it's warm and cozy with plentiful seating for small or larger groups. Our server Jeremiah.was entertaining to say the least. He was energetic and quick with the comebacks. He was also attentive in his service. We ordered the cheeseburger and sweet potato fries. Our food came out quickly and was just as we ordered. The burger wasn't anything spectacular but it was delicious. Our favorite part was the musical act. The "one man show" was interactive with the crowd and very entertaining. His slap stick humor kept us laughing all night. We definitely intend to go back another night while we are here.

    Food was good, the entertainment was even better. This place is one of the few where you can grab a quick meal without reservations. It's a bar so beverages are where they are especially good.

    While vacationing at Big Cedar do not neglect to stop at the Buzzard Bar for lunch or dinner. We've had the friendliest servers and the atmosphere is very log-cabinish cool. There is a small amount of outside seating overlooking a pool. The menu includes a nice variety of choices but my two absolute favorites are the Signature Beef Brisket Poutine and the Devils Pool Smokehouse Chili. The Poutine is loaded with a super generous portion of tender brisket smothered with gravy, cheese curds and fries. A meal in itself or a shared appetizer. The bowl of chili is chock full of chunks of tender beef and beans topped with onions and cheese. Best chili ever!

    We had such a great time at Buzzard Bar. The food was great, plenty of different cocktails, and fun entertainment. Our waiter was extremely friendly and attentive to our group. The atmosphere was so quaint and welcoming.

    Chicken tenders with sweet chili sauce

    Came for dinner on a Wednesday night and the bar was packed. We had to wait at the restaurant upstairs for about an hour before we were seated for a group of 10, but had a good time getting beers and talking with the server. Once we made it in, we had a great spot with a good view of the "singing cowboy". He was funny and a good performer. Our servers were also very quick and helpful. I got the chicken sandwich and it was pretty big! It came on more of a hoagie roll and was chicken tender style chicken. Which was very flavorful and well seasoned with great toppings. The waffle sweet potato fries also hit the spot. My friend got the tenders that come with a sweet chili sauce that was just soooo delicious. Was a fun spot. Recommend reservations for groups, if they take them.

The staff are students working to pay for their tuition. It is a large elegant building with plenty of room for groups, but at times there is a wait. We had the chicken fried chicken and the meatloaf entrees. Both were served with green beans and mashed potatoes. They offer complimentary bread with three types of butter. We really enjoyed the apple butter! And dessert is not to be missed. We had the apple pie, and it was delicious, and more than enough for the two of us. You can peruse the shop before or after your meal to see some of the student made products.

The dining hall is beautifully adorned with cabin-esque motif and overlooks the campus and mountains. The menu has a great variety and notes items that are made by the students (e.g. butters and cakes). Their complimentary, fresh made bread basket with three types of butters was a fantastic start to the meal. We ordered the mushroom soup, the pork belly sandwich w/ fries, and the shrimp and grits. I will say that the pork belly po' boy was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life! I almost stayed in town longer on the second day just to order it again. The pork belly was smoky, tender, and sweet and paired so well with the grain mustard, pickled onions and arugula -- superb balance of flavors. My husband also noted the shrimp and grits was some of the best he's ever had. The shrimp and pork belly in the dish were perfectly cooked and the Cajun spices were well balanced. And we have to tell you to try their fresh desserts. The brown butter chocolate cake was a special ending to the meal. This is an excellent stop and our student server provided excellent service - they're doing a great job there and is a highly recommended of ours during your stop during your visit to Branson.

    It's the best restaurant in big cedar in terms of food by far…read more Wine list is great and has some non bulk choices that are well selected. Food is great. I'd say the best dish was the scallop appetizer which is served over a risotto - both are excellent and you could easily make a meal of it. But everything we ordered was really outstanding and the service was solicitous. Highly recommend just having a big dinner every day there and then just only lunch or breakfast there or in Branson and a lot of outdoor activities....

We arrived 10 minutes early for our reservations, the place was pretty empty however they still made us wait until 5 minutes after our reservation time. We had requested a window seat which quite a few were available and they tried to seat us elsewhere! Already I had a bad taste and I hadn't even sat down. After about 3 more minutes she seated us by the window. We were there for a friend's birthday celebration and wanted it to be special. Her husband told the server. My husband ordered the Worman's Manhattan. He really enjoyed the current infused rye whiskey in it. It added a very unique flavor to the drink. We were brought a complimentary chef's taste of a goat cheese on a small bagette and small glass of sparkling wine. My husband ordered the seafood pot pie and I had the French onion soup and winter spice cranberry salad. The soup was very good and flavorful but the salad was average and definitely not worth the price. My husband enjoyed the seafood pot pie. It was a very generous serving . He shared some with me. It was very rich and creamy. I didn't particularly like the mussels and clams still in their shells inside the" pie" however the pot pie is just pastry crust over a cast iron pan with the creamed sea food. After the meal we were given some stale macaroons with filling that tasted like frosting. There was No acknowledgement of my friend's birthday. We decided to walk down to see Harry's cocktail bar downstairs before calling our shuttle. The manager came into the bar in a bit of a hurried frenzy as we were walking out and asked if it was someone's birthday. We pointed to our friend and he told her happy birthday and then left?!?! Overall I was disappointed in the experience for the amount of money we spent.
