If you're anywhere near Springfield, Missouri, you have to check out Big Dog Deli. And honestly, if…read moreyou're not nearby, it's still worth the drive or a flight. Chef John and Casey are incredible. I had their gourmet hot dogs and the Great Dane sandwich, and the flavors were creative, bold, and perfectly balanced. Chef John clearly has a vast knowledge of blending flavors and crafting truly unique sauces you simply won't find on any grocery store shelf. The entire concept is so fun. From the clever dog-themed sandwich names to the fun logo and even their merchandise, you can tell this place was built with passion and creativity by true dog lovers. Springfield is lucky to have them. Big Dog Deli is an experience, not just a meal and it's absolutely worth checking out.

This little gem has so many 5-star reviews. I was trying to think of a reason to give only 4, but…read morecouldn't come up with any. I had the Friday special, The Highwood and Fry. It was excellent, and enough fries for 2 people. In fact, my wife and I could've split the sandwich and fries and it would have been plenty. AND the daily special INCLUDES the fries for $9.49. The sandwich is regularly $12.49 and the fries are an additional $1.77. This place understands good food at a reasonable price! I hope to come back.

By the time I finished, I was considering moving closer so this could become a personality trait. If you're in Springfield and you don't eat here, that's between you and your sandwich-related regrets. Five stars. Would trust them with my lunch and my future.

The smallest detail ended up being my favorite part.. the homemade pickle! Hands down the best pickle I've ever had. The only downside, we waited for quite a while before we got menus or really even addressed by anyone. Then it took a while after that to get our drink orders. Overall service just seemed pretty slow. However, the food made up for it in every way! I would give them the benefit of the doubt and say maybe we just came in after a big rush. Definitely recommend giving them a try, as long as you aren't in a big hurry!

Thank you Kenny for an amazing dining experience.

Admit our misunderstanding. "You pick two" pricing is not the deal I remember it to be. Drinks 3.39 each.

Food was ok, my half salad seemed smallish and thin slices of chicken and her Fuji "Apple" salad was shaved bits of dried apples, not actual you know, apples. Her sandwich seemed ok.

LOUD AF on a Tuesday night with incredibly slow service…read more I like to eat in local places while we're on the road. Read about this place being historic with a beautiful bar and lovely tin ceiling. And that is all true. Walked in and could not believe how loud the single singer with an acoustic guitar was. There was a sound engineer, working a board, so he must've thought that level was OK. But you could not have a conversation at all. I was wishing for earplugs. When we first stepped in, I considered just looking at the carved mahogany bar and going somewhere else. But, we figured it should be fast and we could endure the cacophony for a short time. We were so wrong about it being fast. There was only one wait staff working that night, and she was also behind the bar. When she finally moseys over to us, she admitted she had forgotten all about us. She then took our drink order, and the drinks came quickly. But then she literally never came back to take a food order. Watched her go to all the other tables, watched her clean off the bar, watched her answer a phone call for a takeout order, and then I finally went up to the bar and asked her if we could put in a food order. Once the food was ordered it came out quickly. My husband's smashburger and candied pecan salad were both really delicious. I am a sucker for a local food item whenever I see it on the menu, and I made the mistake of ordering the cashew chicken poutine. The cashew sauce had zero flavor and was just overly salty. The chicken was fried very tough. At least the cheese curds were good. But I barely ate any of it. Nothing but regret about this choice.

The packaged West Creek ranch is one of the best packaged ranches I've had anywhere... We hit the drive through so I can't really comment on the service. The tenderloin... This "tenderloin" was reminiscent of a mouthful of sawdust and whatever ketchup they use is overly sweet. It was just off right out of the gate. I'm a holy trinity guy! Onions, pickles, and mustard only. My girlfriend didn't mind it... I was going to throw it in the trash after the second bite. She's a little weird though anyway.... She eats mayo even on a good tenderloin. Clearly a fritter rather than a tenderloin, but the menu does list it as a tenderloin. Try this "tenderloin" at your own risk. But I warned you... The menu is extensive. If I was in the area I'd hit a Beef-A-Roo again and try more of their other items.
