Really good Brown Buttered Pecan ice cream, but my opinion on it was too many Pecans. Very friendly staff and astomphere. Well be back once in Branson again.

This is by far the best place to eat in the Branson area. I’ve been to this restaurant several times over the years and it never disappoints. The service is wonderful, the atmosphere is top notch and the food is amazing. Highly recommend!

From the moment we walked in the Restaurant we were impressed. The food was wonderful & our server Joy was an absolute sweetheart. One our group had a Birthday & and the group that sang to her were a choir…absolutely beautiful voices! The meals were all delicious, could not of been more impressed with the overall experience.

I was apprehensive. But from the time we walked in the doors until we left overall it was very impressive. Dylan our server was kind and engaging and really took an interest in our full time RV lifestyle . The food was delicious especially the maple cinnamon rolls and the sausage !! I will need to return before we leave in September for ice cream and a few baked goods.

We had the most amazing experience dining for our anniversary! All of our food was excellent and they went above and beyond to make us happy! ❤️

Fantastic Sunday brunch. Kind of expensive but was worth it. Just wish they didn’t charge extra for coffee and tea. For the price it should be included. Everyone was super nice. We didn’t have reservations but was told to get there by 7:30 to be added to the list so we were lucky. The food was amazing.

First, we love the unique concept of the College of the Ozarks and The Keeter Center. They offer a remarkable dining experience intertwined with a unique educational model. What makes this place extraordinary is its commitment to providing tuition-free education for full-time students by requiring them to work 15 hours a week on campus and two 40-hour work weeks during breaks. This hands-on approach extends to the Keeter Center's culinary offerings, featuring produce from the campus garden, hydroponics from campus greenhouses, campus-raised pork products, and an array of student-made goods such as fruit spreads and milled items. Our meal began on a high note with an assortment of freshly baked goods. We indulged in their warm, fluffy rolls, delightful cornmeal biscuits, and wonderfully tart crumbly cranberry biscuits. Each biscuit and roll was accompanied by a triad of butters--homemade, strawberry, and apple. The butters were a flavorful addition that elevated the humble bread starters to a gourmet level, particularly the strawberry butter, which provided a perfect blend of sweetness and creaminess. My wife chose the Keeter "Que-Bano", a creative spin on the classic Cuban sandwich. This sandwich was a symphony of flavors and textures: smoked pulled pork and charred andouille sausage provided a rich, smoky base, complemented by the tanginess of Swiss cheese and the slight bite of caramelized onions. Crispy fried jalapeños added a spicy crunch, balanced by the acidity of dill pickles, all brought together by a tangy deli-style mustard. Encased in a warm, grilled hoagie bun, this sandwich was both hearty and satisfying, a perfect example of comfort food with a twist. I opted for the Mediterranean Vegetable Pasta, a dish that promised freshness and vibrancy. The pappardelle pasta was perfectly al dente, serving as the ideal backdrop for a medley of Mediterranean vegetables--kalamata olives, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, artichoke hearts, roasted fennel, and zucchini. The capers and fresh basil provided bursts of flavor, while the marinara sauce tied everything together with its rich, tomatoey goodness. Topped with green onions and a generous dusting of Parmesan cheese, the dish was a beautifully composed vegetarian option that didn't skimp on taste. My children ordered from the children's menu and ended their meal with fresh ice cream from the campus creamery. Dining at the Keeter Center is more than just enjoying a meal; it's an immersion into a community that values hard work, sustainability, and quality education. The use of fresh, campus-sourced ingredients is evident in every bite, making this a dining experience that not only satisfies the palate but also warms the heart. Whether you are a visitor to Branson or a local, the Keeter Center offers an opportunity to savor delicious food while supporting a noble cause. Highly recommended!

It wasn't as good as other times I have had it in the past. And I had 5 different flavors to really confirm that. I had it alot more years ago and from what I remember it was really good but not this time. The service was excellent and the guy at the counter was really hot.
