6 Best American Restaurants near Dexter

“We stopped in for a lunch break from working at the fish farm. It was so good. I wish I could remember what I ate. I just remember it was some kind of chicken wrap and it was amazing. We will go there again!“

“A little out of the way but, obviously a local favorite and worth the jog off the highway if you're adventurous.
Great food, reasonable prices, and an on-site t-shirt maker with some great transfers. Had a great breakfast and bought three t-shirts and it didn't break the bank!“

“We stopped in Dexter while traveling & enjoyed our meal at Catch 22's. The burgers, sandwiches and salads were tasty & the deep fried pepper jack cheese was fantastic! The waiter did a good job and we would recommend trying this place if you haven't before.“

“I had breakfast at the Huddle House in Dexter, mo this morning. We were greeted immediately upon entering, found a table and our drink order was taken promptly. After a very only a few minutes our drinks arrived and our food order was taken. Again, in a very short time, our food arrived, just as we ordered it, hot and delicious. Our coffee cups never got below half full and every staff member that passed our table made eye contact. We never wanted for anything. The only place any staff member stopped moving was at the point where food came up and while waiting for food there every staff member was scanning the dining room. It was clear who was the manager, because he was truly managing this well oiled machine. Having worked in management/supervision for decades this was a very refreshing experience. Today its difficult to recognize most managers in restaurants because they're working so hard on the floor taking care of customers because the quality of the employees that they manage is very low. It was clear that the management at this HH had put the effort into their staff up front and now only needed to oversee them, not carry their load. If you are, or plan to be in restaurant management, I would recommend eating at the Huddle House in Dexter, mo. Pay attention to what they pay attention to and imitate them. We have the better part of our last two generations entering the work force with very little going for them as far as work skills and ethics, and they're not learning much at most all entry level jobs. Shame on parents and employers! The young people I watched work at HH this morning are head and shoulders above most and have much brighter futures than most their age. Thank you for a wonderful breakfast and for giving me hope for our younger generations.“

“The food is amazing. I always get either a lotta pig or lotta burger. I have eaten at Dexter Queen since childhood and am now 58. Every meal has been delicious. The service is friendly. I always order by phone and the food is always ready by the time they say it will be. My entire family loves Dexter Queen.“

“I stopped by while passing through for lunch. I eat mainly carnivore, or everything left after the vegans leave. I was able to get brisket, pulled pork, and pork steak only. It was charged by the pound a la carte and very delicious. Spicy Mustard was great as well.Meat was lightly seasoned, good bark and medium smoke flavor.My favorite was the brisket!! I'll be back if I get the chance. The owners were fun to chat with while the meat was getting ready.Stop by. Quick and great. Good moisture, flavor and tenderness.“
