Halloween pumpkin
Pamela H.

We were staying at the Clarion next door and wanted to get something small before our Silver Dollar City Branson Belle cruise at 4:00. I ran over from the hotel and got something to go. They were busy but the food came out quick. We ordered off the starter menu. The onion rings were breaded lightly and had a fresh flavor. The fried okra was fried lightly and was delicious. It is a beautiful restaurant and the staff were very nice.

Country Fried Steak
Rob T.

A true gem in Branson. Good homestyle cooking, friendly staff, live entertainment, and an atmosphere....well, think of Cracker Barrel, but without being "corporate". We had the chicken fried steak and the pork tenderloin. Both were melt-in-your-mouth! The fried okra was about the best my wife has ever had. Even the sweet tea was good, and served in a cup large enough that you didn't have to keep looking for refills. We'll definitely be back!

They had the best sweet tea with black berry. It was sooo delicious! We enjoyed all the food. Love the diner or home cooked meals! It had a homey feeling. The peanut butter pie was wonderful! The service was just average, the waitress just seemed annoyed.

Fish plate
Zhenya B.

We came here today for dinner. We called for reservations and when got there got seated right away. Place was crowded and there was a live singer. I got fish plate- everything was tasty except the hash puppies. Husband got the carnivore burger and said it was very flavorful, but was not fan of the fries. Kid 1 got grilled cheese and said it was good. k Kid 2 got cheeseburger, but let's be honest, she just wanted the fries and enjoyed those very much. Our server was lovely and very helpful.

Amazing spot right in the heart of Branson and one this celiac gal was super excited to try! I found this spot through my find me gluten free app. They had a dedicated fryer for the fried gluten free items.... Say what!! We all enjoyed our meal and will make this a normal stop for our Branson adventures! Oh.... And they have live music in the evenings. Starting at 5 I do believe! Thanks Local Flavor for bringing good home cooking to Branson!

Breaded pork tenderloin
Bob A.

Breaded pork tenderloins have always been my favorite sandwich. I've had them in many places over 70 years but none better than this one. If you too are a lover of the tenderloin or have never had one in your life. Put a pin in the map for Local Flavor Branson, MO. Best ever, you won't regret it. Everything on the menu is excellent.

Wow!!! Everything was fresh made and delicious They make everything from scratch so this is not the place to eat if you're in a rush Highly recommend and you'll love the ambience

Great food! Love the atmosphere! The band was really good! Our waitress was very friendly, just slightly busy with a bigger table. We had the fried chicken and chicken bites.

Takeout was fresh and simple. The food was edible but nothing special for the price point. I had the carnivore burger.

Do they still have an adult grilled cheese? No kids meal?

I believe they do. I just looked up their menu online and it's still there.

Me and my buddy decided to visit Branson for a movie and we decided to stop in at a random place to…read moreeat. We decided on Crazy Craig's treehouse, one that looked like cozy simple affordable food. Upon walking into the establishment, we discovered that the parking lot is a tight entry with the infamous Branson hills. The exterior was appealing and cool to look at yet the interior was cramped and barely any room to sit. They did have a nice area to sit upstairs though the pool table upstairs didn't contain the ball rack and the table was incredibly dirty/unmaintained. Moving onto the service. We were told to sit anywhere and someone would come and check on us, it was several minutes before someone came to check what we wanted with little to no business going on. However they were nice so that was a nice plus. The pricing for this place is a little overpriced for the simple food menu they have. We paid 10 dollars for chips and queso and the serving size that was on the platter was barely enough to feed us both. Our main entrees were easily 15 dollars a plate and not to mention that it took quite a lot of time for everything to come out. The overall taste of the food/drinks were very disappointing. My Dr Pepper was extremely flat no matter a refill or not, the chips were stale, and the queso tasted like fake cheese (only cheese I can compare it to is lunchables). My chicken sandwich I ordered was incredibly subpar: especially since when I pay 15 dollars for a sandwich I want a patty and not two chicken tenders plastered on a bun. Especially the pepper jack cheese on my tender sandwich had absolutely no spice which made me believe it was fake cheese as well. Even the pepper from the shaker only had a hint of the taste of pepper. The worst experience in this first and last visit was the fact that the pepper sauce (hot sauce) was all expired. Our tables sauce had expired on July 2025! I checked other tables and only one of the tables had a September 2027 date the rest had May 2025. So I didn't use any condiments on my food which overall ruined my meal. The only truly good food product I had was the French fries so if you go here just order the fries from the appetizer section and seeing how they are a bar as well: drink while you're here because you will need it to get through main entrees. Overall: friendly slow service, bad food, bad soda, and tight space and parking lot. Not worth your time!

We had lunch at Cheddar's today, and it was a fantastic experience!…read more I ordered the 8 oz. sirloin, and it was really good. The steak was cooked just right, seasoned well, and the quality of the meat was much better than a steak I recently had at LongHorn Steakhouse. The LongHorn steak was unfortunately a bad cut of meat--it was soggy and unpleasant, even though it was seasoned and cooked properly. When we brought our concerns to the general manager there, we didn't feel like the issue was handled very well. Our experience at Cheddar's was completely different. The server was amazing, attentive, and friendly, and the general manager was extremely nice and made us feel welcome. I highly recommend the 8 oz. sirloin at Cheddar's. Great food, great service, and a management team that genuinely cares about the customer experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

We chose Cheddars. It was very good. My fried chicken, gravy, and mashed potatoes was excellent. My wife had the vegetable plate and really enjoyed it. They bring a sweet cinnamon tart to the table right off. They were delicious. Again, the food was great, but even better...our server. Angelica was a treat with a beautiful smile. She was very attentive and pleasant. She is a student here from Romania. I wanted to give a big shout out to Angelica. We enjoyed our meal and walked out of there for 30 bucks.
