    Grilled Chicken Breast with Pesto and Waffle Fries

    We always love stopping in while in Jeff City. Great food and amazing service. Definitely recommend!

    Fish and chips because it was a Friday in Lent and I remembered.

    Giving it 5 stars for what it is, which is a great neighborhood dive bar. Whenever I find myself in Jeff City I stop here for some grub and beers. I've had a really good chicken and pork tenderloin sandwich there. Last time I had fish and chips, which were also pretty good. It's a place worth checking out for casual fun company and/or a quick meal and drinks.

    We asked around town for a "uniquely Jefferson City" dining experience and this was the recommendation from everyone. We weren't disappointed! Some of the best onion rings I've ever had and a fantastic burger. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll be sure to stop in! Also - VERY friendly staff!

    Went for a long run day and was looking for something to refill the tanks. Beer on tap, Cowboy Burger that would fill up anyone and a friendly bartender. Service was fast. Burger and waffle fries were delicious. Music was a joke box playing Tom Petty. Sign me up.

    This place was great! Our waitress was absolutely great. It was so cozy and relaxed. Food could have used a little more salt but was cooked to perfection!

    Prime Rib Sandwich and Fries

    A neighborhood tavern (https://eccolounge.net) with a great, historic, old school tavern vibe and a friendly and attentive staff. Was in town on business and decided to try the place. There was plenty of parking on a Wednesday night and I was seated immediately. Started with a beer from Broadway Brewery (https://www.broadwaybrewery.com) out of Columbia MO, the Lofty Pursuits Stout. It was excellent. Unfortunately, it was the absolute best thing about the place. Noticed when I sat down that the booth seats had crumbs and food debris all over them. This did not surprise me as I watched the staff bus another table. The table was given a cursory wipe down but none of the condiments were moved or cleaned under. Additionally, the booth seats were not cleaned. I will note, that when the bartender cleaned the bar she moved the items and cleaned under them. This tells me that standards are not maintained across the sections. I had the German Potato Nachos as an appetizer. The potatoes were over cooked and tasted as if the fryer oil had not been changed in awhile. The cheese on top was hard, and over cooked. It's a shame because they sounded amazing when reading the menu, and I think they could be, but its obvious kitchen standards are not being maintained. For the entrée I had the Prime Rib Sandwich (see photo). It was fairly unappetizing looking upon delivery but I thought I would try it anyway. The meat needed to be trimmed of the fatty portions, but was well seasoned. However, meat and bread alone does not a sandwich make This would have been much better with some shredded lettuce and a couple of tomato slices. Finally, the horseradish sauce that came with the sandwich was bland and mild. The au jus was good and the bun was toasted perfectly. The fries were seasoned well, but again, the bad oil from the fryer gave them a bit of burnt coloring and taste. The pickle, hidden under the sandwich in the picture, was crisp and flavorful. All in all, the meal wasn't terrible, but it wasn't necessarily good either. Again, between the history and the food, this could have been epic. If standards are raised slightly in the cleanliness and in the kitchen, next time this could be a four or five star review. I would try it again, but, at this point I would direct people to go someplace else.

    My family likes to come here often. There was a something on the menu for everyone. And the people who work there are always friendly.

    Food was good onion rings are delicious. A little cramped and noisy. But in a +100 old building that is understandable.

    After numerous visits and trying much of the menu, I think this place has some staying power. The…read morefood has for the most part been good. Very rarely have I had a meal here that didn't live up to my expectations. From Pizza to Burgers and everything in between my sit-down experiences have been really good, with few exceptions. The Brews available have been great as well, although they seemed to jettison the growler promotion awfully fast. In my mind a solid piece like a growler bottle is not only a collectible but it's free advertising since the customer paid for it. I'll keep politicking management to bring it back, but I'm not optimistic. They do serve 32oz Beers in freshly sealed cans (from tap) that are tasty and great competition for other spots closer to home for me, so there's that. Interior decor is stylish and memorable, and the multi-tier design helps sequester the bar area from the restaurant without being obvious in doing so. Bathrooms are eclectically designed and clean. They also have an adjacent spot in the same building for live music (think acoustic or small groups...they currently host things like Blues jams to decent turnout) So, now that the good things that carry the place have been listed, here are the improvements I'd like to see: Host and Hostess quality is all over the place. Ranges from wandering space-cadet kids to courteous young adults that unfortunately have a habit of hosing orders pretty badly. The actual wait staff and bartenders are fairly top notch when you sit down for a meal, so the disparity of quality on to-go orders I can attribute to the person taking the order. Toppings missing, order mixed up and someone else's meal were all experienced on to-go visits. It makes me covet the times in my work week I can sit down and enjoy a meal here (happymeter- near 100%), but obv that can't happen all the time. Unfortunately these are the things that can kill an otherwise great location, and the actual products here are *great*.

    I'm still not sure how I feel about the prison-bars decor (no pun intended), but the beers we tried…read morewere good! Jeff City has a dependable brew-pub in Prison Brews.
