“Honest Review of Billy Gail's in Branson, MO I recently visited Billy Gail's in Branson, and overall, it was a good experience with a few ups and downs. Starting with the positives—the service from my server and the front-of-house supervisor was excellent. Once I was seated, my server was attentive and friendly, and the food was very good. The portions were generous, and the flavors were exactly what you’d hope for from a place known for homestyle cooking. However, the initial impression wasn’t quite as welcoming. The hostess gave off a rather cold and distant vibe upon arrival, which set a bit of a negative tone at the start. Additionally, it took about 20 to 30 minutes before I was even greeted by my server. It turns out she hadn’t been alerted by the hostess that I had been seated, which explains the delay—but it was still a bit frustrating. Despite the rocky start, the good food and strong service from my server and the supervisor made up for it. I’d definitely give Billy Gail's another try, especially since the food and service (once it got going) were solid. Hopefully, they can smooth out the front-of-house communication to create a more welcoming first impression.“

“I'm scared to review this because i want to keep it to myself. They make everything scratch and keep things simple, clean, and delicious. Across the street things get a little dicey with the menu. They also send a text when your table is ready leaving you to wander the shops not tied down by a buzzer.“

“We had dinner there when we were in Branson and it was great! I was busy talking and didn't eat much so the waiter asked if my food was okay he said I didn't have to pay if I didn't like it. I told him it was fine I was just talking a lot I took the meal to go and enjoyed it later. The Flaming Margaritas were amazing!“

“We recently had breakfast and were totally delighted with the service, food, and atmosphere. Arthur was our host and waiter and although he was busy, he stopped numerous times to make sure everything was ok. We are looking forward to enjoying their great food in the near future. This is by far the prettiest restaurant in the area. We like their mission to New Life USA.“

“Thank you for your donation to the Reeds Spring parent-teacher organization! We are very grateful! The teachers have endured a lot while they await the renovation of their school building, and we are thrilled to be able to love on them with your help. Good scoops speak from the heart! 😃“

“Our server Anna was great with the recommendation of the bourbon, glazed salmon. My husband loved his hamburger. It was juicy and cooked to a perfect temp. We do not like an overcooked hamburger. we will definitely be back.“

“Billy Bob’s Dairy Land is such a fun place. It’s small but don’t let that fool you. The food is great (real ingredients) and service is spectacular! Another diner suggested requesting caramel for the sweet potato fries. They will do this if you ask and yum! Make sure you save room for those little pies they have. Sorry, we had it gone before we thought about the picture so you’ll have to trust me on that one. We will be making this a regular stop every time we’re in Branson. There are many pie flavors for us to try!“

“We were very happy with our recent experience at Mountain Top Grill. We were a party of 4 celebrating my parents' anniversary and had great service and really good food. We loved the venison tenderloin and the truffle chicken tortellini. The wrap and flatbread were just ok, but not bad by any means. We were even treated to a special dessert since we were celebrating, which was very unexpected and generous. The cheesecake was huge and we all remarked on how good it was. We booked a reservation after seeing good reviews and mention of the great views. We were not disappointed in either. I'd highly recommend booking a table around sunset to enjoy the beautiful views at their best.“

“This restaurant has greatly improved since my first visit 2-years ago. The ribs and chicken were excellent along with the accompanying side dishes. The price per person was very reasonable for all you can eat. Our server was very accommodating and brought us refills on each item we requested. A point to note is there are no left over carry outs allowed except for the deserts. Great food, great service, glad we stopped by.“

“Ate here at 3:20pm on Tuesday, July 23, 2024. We ordered the Feast for Two. Everything tasted fresh, moist, and delicious. Our waitress, Nicole, was friendly, helpful, and great too! I would rate our food, and experience A+. It couldn't have been any better!“

“nice atmosphere...kind people“

“staff was very friendly and helpful. food hot and fresh. Abe was great waiter.“

“best breakfast I've had in a long time“

“We had Katie as our server and she was beyond amazing!

She was attentive and made us feel very welcome. Dine in or drive through, the food is the same, but it was having her as a server that truly elevated the experience.
We'll be requesting her if possible next time we come in!!!“

“We went over to have a drink. It was a very friendly atmosphere. It took almost 15 minutes for someone to even ask about a drink. Customer Service NEEDS WORK“

“We for a date night last night food an Apps fell pretty flat, food wasn't anything special bland and unappetizing.... 💯
Now the dessert we ordered was amazing apple pie ice cream thing best thing we ordered ❤️ manager did comp some of the bill to help......“

“My boyfriend and I came from Springfield down to Branson to golf and this is the first place we wanted to stop at to grab food. Their sandwiches are truly the best and the place is kept very well. The food is absolutely delicious, and the portions are generous. By far, the cleanest restaurant I’ve ever been in. Definitely will stop here whenever we can to support this business!!“

“Clint was amazing! We ate some yummy food and felt valued while doing it! It’s a 5🌟 from me!“

“Our waitress was absolutely AMAZING!!! I can't speak enough good about her. She was quick and polite, and our drinks were never empty before we had another one on the table. She had the absolute most beautiful smile! Tatiana, YOURE AWESOME!

The food was hot and delicious. This is the only restaurant where I've actually been able to eat the mozzarella sticks. They weren't overly greasy like others I've had.

The only thing that wasn't great about our experience was the hostess. She was EXTREMELY snarky and rude. We didn't realize that the high chair was the kind you set in the booth. When we asked her about it, she was rude when she responded, "Well, I can't set the high chair in the floor." Girl, you could've been a lot nicer. I didn't get her name, although now I wish I would've.

If you go to Chili's, definitely ask for Tatiana as your waitress. You WONT be disappointed!!!“

“Downstairs from the Osage Restaurant is the Buffalo Bar, a great alternative to the restaurant if you do not have the required reservation at the Osage. The establishment is only open between the hours of 4 pm and 9 pm, however, tables are abundant inside and on the huge patio. On clear evenings chances are good that you will be seated quickly.

On our visit, the hostess showed us to our table within a minute of arriving. Before long our server Makayla welcomed us and enquired if we knew what we wanted to drink. The punctual service continued without our meal which began with delicious complimentary mini loaves of fresh bread and rosemary honey butter. Such a fantastic way to start a meal.

This unique rustic, western-themed bar is just as much a restaurant as it is a bar; in fact, it features the same menu as the restaurant above it. If you looking for a cheap meal, you won't find it here, however, you will get a meal and an atmosphere that would put a smile on the late President “Teddy” Roosevelt's face. Yes, your wallet may groan a bit when you pay for this five-star meal but your tastebuds screaming for joy will drown it out.

To keep the billfold moans down, I decided to skip the very tempting beef options and go for the bone-in pork chop. Because the sides were $12 a piece, I opted for just one: the roasted corn. My girlfriend got the roasted chicken and did not notice that the sides were not included, so she ordered the sweet potato mash and the crispy Brussels sprouts. Everything was amazing and full of flavor!!

The pork chop was cooked as I ordered it, keeping its moisture and tenderness. It was easy to cut with a butter knife. Her roasted chicken was the same, just as sweet and juicy, not under or overcooked. The sides hit the spot as well. Even the pickled pears they garnished my plate with went well with the pork chop and the divine chocked cherry dipping sauce.

Thank you Makayla for doing an excellent job keeping us happy and kudos to the chef for the meal that I will always try to achieve from my own grill.“

“They never disappoint! Two words…. Cheese sauce!!!“

“On a beautiful sunny afternoon I rode my goldwing motorcycle through town. I'm not one to treat myself, but thought "what the heck" and stopped at this particular Denny's. JP(short for Jennifer P) welcomed me like family and helped me decide on a black coffee, lumberjack slam with caramel banana cream pancakes on the side. I enjoyed the flavors as if trying them for the first time all over again. The food was not greasy and the coffee was not weak. All in all I was extremely happy with the meal and friendly service. I highly recommend that any decent persons looking for an authentic experience gives this location a try. I think you will be joyfully surprised.“

“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).“
