    For many years, I'd say more than 10, I've always returned to this small but reliable and charming restaurant. The staff is so professional and friendly that you feel right at home. The food is very good, and they have some special dishes that you'll discover if you go. The view over Lake Taneycomo is spectacular. I have to emphasize Kylie's excellent service and professionalism...until next time!

    Ultimate sampler

    We had an amazing dinner we started off with the ultimate sampler the elk sliders were amazing lots of flavor. My favorite was the gator bites, huge portion of breaded crawfish tails and a fish spread and crackers. For our entree we each got shrimp bonitta it was an amazing cheese covered shrimp and Alfredo sauce dish. We asked for a seat with a view looking right down the lake. The staff was excellent food came out quickly. I didn't care for the jalapeno cornbread I had the skillet of cornbread without jalapenos I think last time I came and that was better. Love this place.

    If you are looking for a great place to eat head here. This is right on the river. Make sure you ask for a table facing the river. Everything here is fisherman approved. This is a quiet, clean, and delicious place to eat.

    Kansas City Strip with Crab Cake.  Spot on!
    James J.

    During a recent trip to Branson, had a pretty nice dinner with my wife. For starters, were were seated and given a nice cornbread appetizer. It was OK, but nothing terribly spectacular. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip, which had tomatoes on it.......not terrible, but was peculiar. Finally, the main course, my wife had the mahi mahi with shrimp and sauce. Her fish was overcooked but the sauce was to her satisfaction. I had the Kansas City Strip with Crab Cake and mashed potatoes, and was very pleased with the cook (it should be noted that I am somewhat of a steak snob, so a cook to impress me is quite some doing).

    Love the ambiance

    Pro: Ambience- so incredibly warm and inviting Food was decent not amazing and a bit pricey.

    Very beautiful, rustic fishing themed restaurant right on the water. The menu is large, but overpriced. The fish dip was OK, it was made with salmon which is a little unusual and was fishy. I know I know it's fish, but it shouldn't have been that fishy tasting. I ordered the grouper and was a little disappointed with the topping. It sounded really good on the menu, but fell short and felt like it was an afterthought did not seem fresh. For the price I was looking for a more elevated dish. My dad ordered the fish and chips and said they were pretty good, but nothing special. He really enjoyed the sweet potato waffle fries, though . My mom ordered the Trout almondine and she said it was bland.

    Shrimp tacos were fair. Mahi tacos went very light on the Mahi Mahi. The fish and chips were good but all was overpriced ($65).

    Let me just say that we have been to Branson twice for probably a combined dining experience number…read moreof around 12 times and this blew everything so far out of the water, it should be in it's own league. The poutine was fabulous. The fry coating was crisp and tasty and the gravy was full of flavor. The Reuben sandwich is outstanding! The way they cut that corned beef was nothing short of magic. An egg on there? What? I've never heard of such a thing, but yes please. And I had the brûlée corn; which I may need to learn how to replicate because I've never seen this on any menu in Chicago, but it's too far to travel as often as I'll be thinking about that dish! The old fashions were smooth! Went with vanilla and loved the subtle flavors. Everyone was so nice and the atmosphere was a delightful mix of old school pub/English castle. All of it was just what I was hoping to find. Food off the beaten path that deserves a huge shout out. In a town of bland flavors, this place shines like a real gem!

Sat in a comfy table with a padded pew close to the bar with our backs to the wall, which instantly put my hyper vigilant husband at ease (IYKUK). Chatted a bit with our kind server who was also a millennial, how do I know this? The eye contact and lovely snarky conversation. My husband ordered his med rare, which probably came out more med and not enough pink for his liking. Correction on my part, I got the mahi mahi with parmesan grits and green beans and I didn't even need to look at my pictures to recall, it was that memorable of a meal. Being early January a parking spot nearby was an easy find, I imagine though finding one come spring will feel like a miracle. I'd love to stay at the attached hotel but found it's already booked a year out. Doesn't surprise me, the old English charm with its stone and dark wood is straight up story book.

The dining hall is beautifully adorned with cabin-esque motif and overlooks the campus and mountains. The menu has a great variety and notes items that are made by the students (e.g. butters and cakes). Their complimentary, fresh made bread basket with three types of butters was a fantastic start to the meal. We ordered the mushroom soup, the pork belly sandwich w/ fries, and the shrimp and grits. I will say that the pork belly po' boy was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life! I almost stayed in town longer on the second day just to order it again. The pork belly was smoky, tender, and sweet and paired so well with the grain mustard, pickled onions and arugula -- superb balance of flavors. My husband also noted the shrimp and grits was some of the best he's ever had. The shrimp and pork belly in the dish were perfectly cooked and the Cajun spices were well balanced. And we have to tell you to try their fresh desserts. The brown butter chocolate cake was a special ending to the meal. This is an excellent stop and our student server provided excellent service - they're doing a great job there and is a highly recommended of ours during your stop during your visit to Branson.

We arrived 10 minutes early for our reservations, the place was pretty empty however they still made us wait until 5 minutes after our reservation time. We had requested a window seat which quite a few were available and they tried to seat us elsewhere! Already I had a bad taste and I hadn't even sat down. After about 3 more minutes she seated us by the window. We were there for a friend's birthday celebration and wanted it to be special. Her husband told the server. My husband ordered the Worman's Manhattan. He really enjoyed the current infused rye whiskey in it. It added a very unique flavor to the drink. We were brought a complimentary chef's taste of a goat cheese on a small bagette and small glass of sparkling wine. My husband ordered the seafood pot pie and I had the French onion soup and winter spice cranberry salad. The soup was very good and flavorful but the salad was average and definitely not worth the price. My husband enjoyed the seafood pot pie. It was a very generous serving . He shared some with me. It was very rich and creamy. I didn't particularly like the mussels and clams still in their shells inside the" pie" however the pot pie is just pastry crust over a cast iron pan with the creamed sea food. After the meal we were given some stale macaroons with filling that tasted like frosting. There was No acknowledgement of my friend's birthday. We decided to walk down to see Harry's cocktail bar downstairs before calling our shuttle. The manager came into the bar in a bit of a hurried frenzy as we were walking out and asked if it was someone's birthday. We pointed to our friend and he told her happy birthday and then left?!?! Overall I was disappointed in the experience for the amount of money we spent.

I'd say the best dish was the scallop appetizer which is served over a risotto - both are excellent and you could easily make a meal of it.

Highly recommend just having a big dinner every day there and then just only lunch or breakfast there or in Branson and a lot of outdoor activities....
