Hunters special

Everything was great When you first walk in the people are very friendly The food was great and fast Definitely a hidden gem I will go back again and again

Side of bacon
Emily M.

YUM!! Places like this deserve more recognition. This is why I love the Yelp community! I'm so glad I did some research before our trip and found this hidden gem. Hands down the best meal of our entire trip! Our server, Amy, was fabulous. We loved all of our food. I went with the homemade biscuits and sausage gravy, which were the best I've ever had in my entire life! My husband got the chicken fried steak which was delicious, as well. We loved dining with the locals and getting a glimpse into life living in Branson. We will be back next time we're in town!

Delicious food expertly served and cooked quick. Bring your appetite. The portions are large. I'm particularly fond of the hashbrowns and the pork tenderloin.

Definitely 4.5 Stars! A locally owned breakfast diner located Branson. 4 Stars: It is a smaller diner compare to other breakfast places with 4 bar stools and about 10 tables. Depending on the time and day, you will have to pray for patience but the wait is worth it. We waited only 5 minutes but that is rare. By the time we were seated at 9 on a Sunday, about 30 more people were on the waitlist. Staff: 5 Stars All staff were friendly, professional, and respectfully sassy with a country flair. Our server made recommendations being our first time at the diner, and we selected the following: Food: 1. 3.75 Stars - Single pancake w 2 eggs (over easy) and 4 sausage links. You can request patties, ham or bacon instead. Now, the pancakes are about 12-14" In diameter. No joking. The eggs and links were the side items to the pancake. You can order more stacks but one was enough for me. The pancake was good but wasn't as fluffy enough for me. It had a decent crust and wasn't too sweet. That's what the butter and warm syrup is for. The eggs over easy were perfect and the four links has the right amount of pepper, powered sage and fennel in it. 2. 4 stars - Western Omelette w jalapeños and hash brown. The omelette is pretty large, stuffed with sausage, cheeses, veggies and jalapeños in it. The items were wrapped with a thin layer of eggs and it tasted wonderful. The crispy hash browns were a wonderful side accompaniment. Oh, I forgot the Biscuit (5 stars)!Freshly homemade with the right amount of crisco and butter to make them fluffy, light and crunchy. The top layer had a hint of salty butter and had a beautiful golden color. When you open the fluffy layers, the steam coming from the biscuit brought you back to Grandma's house. Get the butter, honey, jam or syrup ready! We ordered two more as to go. It was that good! I recommend to get there before 9 cuz they get busy and they close around 1, I believe. This place is a keeper when we are back in Branson!

In my 70 years of walking this earth, the Hungry Hunter has the best breakfast I've ever eaten. The service is friendly and fast, the portions are large, the food is fantastic. My party ate biscuit, gravy, bacon, sausage, eggs, French toast and hashbrowns, and the largest pancakes I've ever seen. Everything was cooked perfectly. Located just outside of Branson, it is worth the drive. They are open for breakfast and lunch, Wednesday thru Sunday. Well worth the trip. Definitely worth all 5 stars.

A single pancake??? Really???
Debbie F.

Don't mistake quantity for quality. Yes, the servings are huge but almost ridiculous. The young man who served us was very helpful. Ambiance? If you like dusty hunting memorabilia, this is the one place for you. My biggest disappointment was that the restroom door is in the middle of the tiny room. It was disturbing to eat with an endless parade of people going in and out of the bathroom.

This location is small and they get a wait list going. They are good about getting your attention when your name is called. Just listen for the megaphone. There is parking in front and behind the restaurant. Once you get to your table, the service is great. Our waitress was friendly and provided good service. They were definitely busy but didn't rush. The portion size is a good size so you could split or there are some 1/2 size options. I liked the hashbrown and over easy eggs, the corned beef hash wasn't my favorite but I would come back and try other items. Everyone in my group of 6 liked their food.

Stopped in as I was driving by. Food was delivered to my table quickly hot and fresh. I had eggs bacon hash browns. Very generous portions. Friendly waitstaff

Cinnamon roll
Julie P.

The Cinnamon Roll was DELICIOUS!! Right amount of frosting and bread. Western omelette and chicken fried steak delicious. All a great value for the money !!

Cheese omelet with hashbrowns and the special for today, cinnamon roll French toast with 2 eggs and bacon
Ginger B.

What a wonderful find! In all our visits to Branson this is our first time for breakfast at the Hungry Hunter and we were so pleased! It's a lovely drive across the lake, out of the hustle and bustle of town, which we love. A quaint mom and pop feel, with music playing, not too loudly. We were seated right away at 9:00 on a Thursday morning. Our server Lori greeted us quickly and kept our coffee cups warm! Such a friendly lady and she described the menu options so well that she talked one of us into their cinnamon french toast special of the day! Our food was served quickly and was nice and hot. Each item was tasty, and for me, I was very pleased that the hash browns did not have that greasy grill taste! My cheesy omelet was generously filled an made to order, as I prefer mine a little different. The bacon was delicious, a perfect blend of thick and chewy with a bit of crisp. We will definitely visit again!

Denver or Western omelet
Jill B.

Denver Omelet is so good? Food portion was huge. Me and my husband split it and we still had left over. Hashbrowns were good but a bit salty for my liking. The homemade bread is bomb.com!!! Get it! They use like a fajita onion mix so it has onions, red and green bell peppers. I like that they sautéed the mix first before adding to omelet. I would def come back. Very busy! But we called in the order and it was easy to pick up. Keep calling if you get the machine as eventually they will pick up.

The check in process was lengthy Make sure that you advise you fill out a vehicle registration on line. My check in did not mention the vehicle registration and I received a violation for $75 for not registering my vehicle from a third party vendor. I stay at a lot of hotels and they always advise if a vehicle needs registration at check in and usually provide a marker to identify the vehicle. This turned a nice getaway into a bad experience. Bad way to run a resort

Staff ? Ozark friendly. Are they sincere? Don't know. They ARE all well trained…read more Rooms are tacky. Towels old. Frayed. It's an old school atrium type hotel with glass elevators. This design fell out of favor years ago but I love it. Nice water features inside. Parking? Worst system ever. Not worth explaining. Just a convoluted hassle. Not very "Ozark friendly" thats fer sure! I was exhausted after my 8 hr drive from Chicago and had to go BACK OUT across the vast parking lot in the pitch black Missouri darkness with a QR CODE card they gave me to pay for parking. Etc. AWFUL! "And if I don't?" "We'll give you an 80$ ticket." FAIL! Room was around 300$ for 2 nights. Parking EXTRA. (The parking cost this review 2 stars off.)

The waitresses are attentive and keep your coffee cup full. I especially want to note; at both lunch and breakfast i saw their people taking food temperatures on the buffet. That is a first anywhere. Plus i saw it at both meals. That means they take food safety very seriously. Yes, my favorite and i highly recommend.

I was here…read moreat the same time at watched the staff killing themselves with two bus loads of kids in addition to massive amounts of adults. Every tray was carried for every diner with a greeting and a smile. What I saw was hard-working people keeping every drink full. The guys behind the buffet had to constantly deal with kids standing in the way as they carried hot food from the kitchen. No one was rude or even short with anyone patrons. My waitress, Jacqueline, was so very sweet. She kept my drinks full and got me extra plates. Don't listen to the hateful comments on here. This place had great, fresh food with awesome service. I plan to always come back in the future. Next time I'll try the omelet station. It looked amazing!

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.
