    AYCE catfish basket and the meatball sub with a side salad.

    My husband and I have stopped in here three times. All three times we have enjoyed our food. The atmosphere is friendly dive bar. The wait staff is incredible and great at making menu suggestions. They have only a few beers on tap, a decent bottle selection, and a nice bar. Draft beers are $2.25. Basically, this is our new favorite place to hang out and get a bite to eat.

    Oh. My. Yum. -- Good food, excellent prices, and toast that will make you weep. Had the $8.95 steak lunch special -- great steak, baked potato, salad, toast points. Every bite was truly delish. And I am full.... of gratitude and satisfaction. A wonderful surprise to find this local joint on our road trip... And, Kayla? -- THANKS for the excellent service!

    This place is great example of a local gem in Springfield, MO. Great place to grab a homestyle meal for lunch or dinner. I went for lunch and had their special, the Walleye. And it was a huge amount of food for $10.95. The fish was fresh and flakey and the batter wasn't too thick and all of the sides front he potatoes to the close slaw and the beans were really good. Check this place out for some great fried fish or a burger. The staff was very welcoming and very nice.

    Good burger could use a little more seasoning wonderful wings went for lunch at 1:30 on a Wednesday. If you have a 30 min lunch break this may not be the place for you unless you call ahead and take to go but other than that wonderful place.

    The prices at Jo's are reasonable, and the food and service are very good. The daily specials are a great value.

    From the front door on, this old MFA Mill building has been rejuvenated and repurposed to something…read morereally neat. The seating can be hit and miss of sorts in usability or comfort. Eating in a wing back chair, at some odd table, isn't well suited for dining. But, sure looks neat. The food is ok to good: Burger : The burger was really good. Has some jam sauce on it which really works. Beef has a good flavor. The bacon was very good. . Potato soup: The soup is good....but needed far greater seasoning to have it be great. Pork Wings: Again, needed more seasoning to elevate the pork. And the dipping sauces were a bit unusual. And the Asian style sauce - by gosh did it have a ton of saffron. Patagonia side item: These potato chunks weren't much. Potatoes were nothing special, under seasoned and the dipping sauce was unusual. And so much saffron, it was way overpowering. . Is it worth going to - absolutely and the place is neat. But I give an extra 1/2 to 1 star more, just because of the neatness of the place.

    I really wanted to like The Table…read more The space itself is absolutely beautiful -- one of the best dining rooms in Springfield -- and it feels like the kind of place that should deliver a more elevated, full-service experience. That's part of what made the counter-service model feel a little out of sync with the atmosphere. We first tried visiting as a group of about 12 on a Saturday around 7 PM. I had called ahead and was told they don't take reservations, so we planned accordingly. When we arrived, we were told there wasn't any way to accommodate our group together -- not even the option to wait for space to open up -- so we ended up going elsewhere. I did come back later with a smaller group for lunch. The experience was better logistically, but still a bit disjointed. The menu felt somewhat scattered, and while we were able to find seating at a communal table, the overall flow felt a bit chaotic. After ordering at the counter, the wait for food was quite long -- around 45 minutes or more -- which gave us plenty of time to observe how things were running. Toward the end, I noticed tables being marked as unavailable/reserved, which made me wonder why a similar approach couldn't have worked for larger groups earlier. When the food arrived, it was good -- nothing wrong with it -- but not especially memorable, especially considering the wait and price point. There's a lot to like here, especially the space and overall concept, but the execution didn't quite match the expectations for me. I do think with some adjustments to service flow and consistency, this could be a much stronger experience.
