“I just left DTCC and sipped my coffee. Holy smokes. Heather just nailed my white chocolate lavender mocha. Sometimes steamed almond milk messes with the flavor but I’m sitting here in lavender mocha heaven thinking about how I can’t tell the difference between the almond milk and dairy… and the flavors are spot on. Totally started my day right. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“It's decent, though if you're a boot at FLW stuck in the barracks and trying to escape the chow hall its a godsend. I'd recommend the wings over the tenders as the tenders are kind of on the small side, though the wings had good flavor.”

“The baristas are always kind, during the weekends it gets very busy and there’s lots of people but it’s worth the wait. Plus no tax so the drinks are cheaper then off base ✋😆”

“Panda exceeded my expectations. Everything was smooth, professional, and stress-free.”
• “Great service from Panda—responsive, efficient, and very helpful throughout.”

“They have a very friendly and helpful staff that are super welcoming which is always nice for government employees who are away from home. They served my food pretty quick and no issues with the orders. It’s really nice to have service like this right next to the hotel.”

“It's a fantastic way to make friends and we have a lot of fun. always something to look forward to! 😊”

“We did A pickup order of 2 large pizzas and they came out to $30 and were huge. No complaints on service or product as it was good all around. Waited about 15 minutes on the pizza.”

“We loved watching the chef cook in front of us, it was terrific.
Sadly, after a few bites, I got sick to my stomach and couldn't eat the rest of my meal. I'm not sure why I got sick. Otherwise, what a delightful experience.”

“As a retiree I live on a budget when I eat our the food is a lot better then when I was in a lot better then hells kitchen when I was going thru boot camp 1971 at Lackland afb”

“Great DFAC. It’s easily the best at Fort Leonard Wood, with tons of fresh fruit and omelets in the mornings. My main complaint is that it isn’t open on the weekends.”

“I stopped by Charlie's Subs and overall had a solid experience, especially thanks to the service.

Ms. Chrissy was the highlight of the visit. She was extremely friendly, very helpful, and clearly cares about doing a good job. From the moment I ordered, she had a great attitude and made the interaction easy and positive.

I ordered 16 wings total. A 10 traditional wing basket with fries, plus six additional wings with ranch. The wings came out hot and fresh, which always matters. Ten of them were Scorpion Sting. They could have been a little spicier, but for food court wings, they were still pretty good and well cooked. The remaining wings were solid as well, no complaints there. The fries were also good, fresh, and paired well with the wings.

One small hiccup was the ranch. They do charge for sauces, which I paid for, but it was forgotten with the order. That one is partly on me too, because I didn’t check until I was already back at my table. I went back up, let them know, and they immediately took care of it without any issue.

The atmosphere is exactly what you’d expect from a food court on a military installation. Nothing fancy, but that’s not why you’re there.”

“My personal favorites are the sweet almond pretzels and the salted pretzel bites. Every time I have gone the employees are friendly, helpful, and have a great sense of humor. The pretzels are fresh and very well made. Glad to have found this spot! Will continue to visit for the rest of our time here at FLW.”

“very hard workers here! they are ALWAYS busy on weekends and they do their best to keep up with the crowd of orders! never mean or have a attitude even when
super busy!”

“Clean dining area and the food is consistently good. Is on base so it can get very crowded very quickly.
Only complaint is I wish the drive-thru was quicker ... whether busy inside or not, the drive-thru always seems to be sllllooooowwww.”

“Daughter got a chicken meal on her way back to base. She said the chicken was good. They seem to have a hard time hearing orders in the drive-thru. The lady at the window was nice and food came quickly.”

“Best coffee and donuts around! The staff is always friendly and the service is quick, making it the perfect spot to grab a morning pick-me-up. I can't get enough of their seasonal flavors—definitely a must-visit!”

“The workers are always awesome......they have opened me up to try new things. I love this place!”

“Yum! Needed some good protein and got it with in house made chicken tenders. The regular chicken has strong flavor. The tenders are lighter. Hit the spot just right! Grilled and fried both were tender and juicy.”

“Always fresh and so good. Presentation is always great too. I’ve been on a health journey and their smoothie bowls are always something I like to have when I’m in need of something sweet but still healthy!”

“This place is great the food the people will definitely come back 5 stars for sure”

“The food is always wonderful I always say can’t believe something like that is in Waynesville. Now if they could get their food delivered to your table quicker last three times the wait after we ordered was terrible last visit waited 45 min to only find out they deleted our order….. weird. Wait staff is always very friendly. Seriously get with the program but again awesome food.”

“We love Cancun, it’s the best Mexian Grill around in my opinion! The Pollo Bandito is AMAZING and it’s child friendly!”

“I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for years now after a friend recommended it to me but we hadn’t had the opportunity to stop by on our travels from STL to Springfield until recently, I can’t believe I waited so long!!! This place is a gem! A must-visit restaurant if you are ever in the area! The food was delicious, the service was wonderful, very warm and welcoming and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Definitely recommend the egg drop soup, it was one of the tastiest versions of this soup I have ever eaten! Everything looked delicious and I can’t wait to visit again soon for another delicious meal the next time we are in the area! Highly recommend!!!”

“We loved this place. This was my first time in a resturante like this. The prices were decent for the amount of food you get.
We loved the atmosphere. Leaned heavily into the nautical theme but also salty/houmorous street signs.
We did the recommended juicy explosion. My husband got medium and I got mild as I dont like overly spicy food. His was better. It had just enough heat your nose started to run. Flavor was great both ways. He likes spice and said he'd definitely go up.”

“I wanted to share a quick story and a huge thank you to the team at Agave Azteca in Ralston. ​While my wife and I were there after church today, we had a medical emergency that required an ambulance. It was a pretty scary moment, and I really want to recognize the manager on duty. He was incredibly sincere and kind. He stepped in to help with exactly what we needed without any hesitation or question, and simply let me know he was there for whatever else might come up. ​A big thanks to our waitress and the rest of the staff for being so friendly and professional throughout the whole ordeal too. We already knew they had the best salsa around, but the character they showed today proves they’re even better people. ​We’re so thankful you guys were there for us. We'll be back soon under much better circumstances!”

“Hands down the best steakhouse in Missouri. Carnivores isn’t just a place to eat — it’s an experience. From the moment you walk in, the energy hits different. The vibe is relaxed but sharp, the drinks are crafted like art, and the food? Straight fire. You can taste the care in every cut — juicy steaks cooked perfectly, sides that actually have flavor, and cocktails that belong in a big-city lounge. What makes it special is the heart behind it. The owner and team treat guests like family and carry that “Warrior” pride in everything they do. Whether you’re there for date night, a family dinner, or just to unwind at the bar, you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. This isn’t your average steakhouse — it’s the one the others wish they could be. “Where Warriors Feast” isn’t just a slogan, it’s the truth.”

“While I stayed at Fort Leonard Wood for over 3 months Z Bar and Grill kept me going. The bartender Brigett is one of the most authentic and caring souls I've met. She genuinely cares about the people she serves, the drinks she makes and the beer she pours. She's someone who was just born with a rare dedication and kindness for what shes doing in life no matter what it is. Brigett made my time in Missouri a million times better than it would have been otherwise.

The food is delicious I love the eggrolls and the pizza menu. They have karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights and its always fun to watch other people sing and sing yourself (after a few drinks). I can forever recommend Z Bar & Grill to anyone whoes live brings them to St Robert, Missouri and I hope they enjoy the place as much as I did.”

“Really good food and very reasonable prices. Great atmosphere, clean, and friendly staff.”

“Love this place and genesis was spectacular. She once saved me from a lion attack in Africa. If it wasn’t her I wouldn’t be here today. Now I’m thriving and living life to the fullest!”

“Food is amazing and service was great. Definitely recommend!! 👍🏻”
