Travis T.

The food is similar to style and options as Golden Corral but better since the food was higher quality. The steak was decent for a buffet but it could use some more seasoning. The hushpuppies and the fried fish had a nostalgic taste but in a good way. The desserts were the star of the show especially the bread pudding and the amount of pie options on the dessert line. I noticed that the process to pay is at the counter by the silverware, drinks, and trays which is different than most places. Overall, it was worth the drive from Kansas City.

Reviews are largely positive. Diners enjoy the wide food variety, friendly, attentive staff, and family-friendly atmosphere. Pricing is seen as reasonable.

Food was delicious. Good variety. Good service. Not really any more expensive than anywhere else. If you leave hungry, it is your fault.

It's always a different opinion when we go. The food is sometimes fresh and sometimes it's not. The prices are getting worse everyday too.

The service is awesome, the food is pretty good, and the strawberry shortcake and Mac and cheese is to die for.

Came here for a valentines date…read more FYI this place is by reservation only and also incredibly off the beaten path but more than worth it. Date and I came here and they were apparently doing a Valentine's special which meant it was a 5 course meal for 55 dollars a person. It's insane value given it includes a 26 oz steak. The menu changes all the time in terms of the small appetizers you get so I'll skip those. The real draw of the place is the unbelievable mouthwatering melt-in-your-mouth tender massive steak. The owner was nice enough to come by and talk to us about how they buy the beef straight from the farmer and they honey glaze if for hours to get this marbling unlike any I have ever had before. I could barely finish half of my steak and my date couldn't even finish a third. You'll be sure to have left overs that are better than most steaks you make yourself at home for half a week. They also serve this amazing home baked loaf of bread to come with the meal which we also took with us at the end. Hospitality is great and the food is even better. If you have a special occasion and want to do something truly memorable to commemorate it, Gobbler's Roost is the way to go in SW MO.

Great little place with great food for a special occasion. Definitely a boutique restaurant…read more Service was first rate. However, kind of hard to get to for an everyday meal. Don't go if you don't like driving dirt roads. Beautiful "in the middle of nowhere" location though.

A young man opened the door for us upon entering the restaurant, which worked there. My Mom is in a wheelchair, so things can be a little more difficult moving around obstacles. We were sat at a very large table near the front door, which worked out perfectly. Actually right in front of the distillery operation of the facility. A patio is available to utilize as well, which makes things nice too. I ordered a Ribeye steak, grilled shrimp, baked potato, steamed vegetables, and complimentary rolls are provided with honey. Rolls are delicious!! Steak was cooked perfect to my liking (medium well). A lot of times places tend to bring my steak back "mooing" and it's more rare, but they cooked it perfectly here! Baked potato was hot and the butter was melted! Steamed vegetables were hot and tender. My side of shrimp was brought out cold..... Once I finally got the server's attention she took it back and had fresh made for me, which was good. A few things I would change.... Waitress to be more attentive. I realize they were getting ready to close, but our ice tea was frequently empty. Also she tended to get a little "pushy" with the bill once it was time to get paid. I hate being rushed, period. I did leave a tip, but it definitely would have been more had these changes been present. I'm generally a good tipper! All in all, the facility was in clean condition. The parking lot is large and flat, so easy to park. They do have a shop where you can buy alcohol, but I never was able to make it in there.
