Came here for a valentines date…read more FYI this place is by reservation only and also incredibly off the beaten path but more than worth it. Date and I came here and they were apparently doing a Valentine's special which meant it was a 5 course meal for 55 dollars a person. It's insane value given it includes a 26 oz steak. The menu changes all the time in terms of the small appetizers you get so I'll skip those. The real draw of the place is the unbelievable mouthwatering melt-in-your-mouth tender massive steak. The owner was nice enough to come by and talk to us about how they buy the beef straight from the farmer and they honey glaze if for hours to get this marbling unlike any I have ever had before. I could barely finish half of my steak and my date couldn't even finish a third. You'll be sure to have left overs that are better than most steaks you make yourself at home for half a week. They also serve this amazing home baked loaf of bread to come with the meal which we also took with us at the end. Hospitality is great and the food is even better. If you have a special occasion and want to do something truly memorable to commemorate it, Gobbler's Roost is the way to go in SW MO.

Definitely make reservations if you have a larger party. Restaurant has a decent bit of bar top seating at an older looking bar. They sat us in a back room at a very nicely presented white table clothed table. We ordered the hot crab dip for an appetizer. It was delicious. 10/10 recommend. For my entree, I ordered the 8 oz filet medium rare with the brown sugar brussel spouts. I almost always have to season my steak, but this was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Carley was our server and she was the perfect mix of being attentive while also not being at our table too often. Next time I am in town, I'll definitely be stopping by for dinner.

What a great dinner…read more Enjoyed the special sirloin tips medium rare with some Mac n cheese and jalapeño mashed potatoes. They also had a fried dish that had mushrooms, calamari and crab cakes. Just great. Best steak I've had in a couple of years.

Springfield, MO Cool…read morelittle place in Downtown Springfield. Great Service, and pretty good food. We had then Salmon & King Crab dip... pretty good BUT difficult/impossible to tell there's either Salmon of Crab in this dish... it's basically a Spinach and cheese dip with really good bread. Also had the Salmon Oscar (menu and server noted it would be served M Rare - IMO it's over done and in NO WAY was it M Rare). Filet Medallions - pretty good Sides - we had 'fried potato medallions' - they were great! BUT now that I look at the menu I have no idea what this would have been. Also had the Candied Bacon & Jalapeño Ched mashed potatoes. It was good but again the Bacon and jalapeños were hard to detect. For dessert we had the Flourless chocolate cake. Very good - huge portion...

I wanted to share some feedback from our recent visit. We noticed on the receipt that we were…read morecharged $4.00 for the pie, even though the menu listed it as $3.25. When we asked about it, we were told the whiteboard price reflected inflation, but it was a little confusing since the menu hadn't been updated. Also, the pie didn't have meringue on the entire piece, which was a bit disappointing. The chicken from the bar wasn't up to temperature (although the fish was), and the hamburger was very dry and had a cardboard-like texture. I personally found most of the food to be overly salty, but that may just be my preference. We also noticed the customers ahead of us returned their chicken sandwich because it was undercooked. That said, the atmosphere was fantastic--watching the plane take off was a really cool experience! We also appreciated being sent home with drinks to go, and our server was very kind and knowledgeable about the menu.

I don't believe the temperature on their fryer was correct because fries were horrible with grease and undercook. I cut into my sandwich and the entire middle was raw chicken, not a spot but the whole breast. I took the food back to the kitchen and they said they would make a new sandwich. that sandwich came out with the smallest piece of chicken and so over cooked the breaded coating was a hard shell. my husbands hamburger was tasteless and he had the same overly greasy fries. so disappointed as I wanted to try out a cute restaurant located on a landing strip. will not be going back.

First time in years for FDs for us. We were a party of 4 who were celebrating a birthday (but we…read moredidn't tell.) The hostesses were super friendly at the front desk and they had their hands full with the Sunday crowd. Once we were seated our server Jason(I think) did an absolutely exceptional job taking care of us throughout our leisurely lunch that started with the Triple Dip. Two of us ordered FD's Trio that included grilled, fried and crab stuffed shrimp, and I added some salmon to feel healthy. Our other party members had the chicken tenders and Hawaiian Chicken. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and again our server kept our drinks full and lots of fun banter. Menu prices are very reasonable as well. As far as ambiance and decor, honestly nothing really stands out. The dining rooms are nice and have lots of light. Unfortunately it's really noisy with a big crowd. The parking lot was crazy tight as it shares one with the next door Texas Road House, which we don't prefer. Overall, an excellent experience and it's definitely a new repeater for us.

Been a year or so since last visit. First notice was no upgrade to restaurant. Actually should be…read moreclassified as a high price dive bar. The place is kind of a dump. And oh boy, prices are way more expensive. Most steakhouses Dont even have chicken fried steak on the menu. But at Jims it went from $16 to $27. I got invited to go, not my pick. At $27 it was one of the cheaper options. The burger was $17, and fish sandwich was $19. And they come with nothing. To add fries they are $5 for off the truck frozen fries or $8 for "hand cut " fries. A baked potato is $10. Those prices may not be shocking at all fine dining restaurant, but Jims is just an overpriced dive bar. BTW, the chicken fried steak was huge. Impressive on the plate. I made sure to have the gravy on the side to not make the fry soggy. The fry was soggy and lukewarm warm in temp. Lack of seasoning and no crispness is best description. Side salad was something you would expect at a diner. Worst part of the iceberg lettuce. Highlight was the baked Idaho baked potato. Problem is they brought me cold to fozen butter in foil and very cold sour creme. I spent 10 minutes building the potato they could have spent a little time trying to wow me. Wouldn't matter, you could order the flagship $70 porterhouse and would end up with the same deal. Jims is an overpriced dive bar masking as a high end steakhouse
