“About 2 months ago, my husband and I had driven past, and I saw the sign for for the Pineapple Whip, and we had just had dinner elsewhere when we went past, so I said the next time we come by here, we are stopping. About a month later, and just waiting to be going by there again, we stopped on our way back for food and Pineapple Whip! It was so good, the pork loin was delicious and great tots too, but the Whip was amazing! sooo good! We are now going back this afternoon, 7/27/24, to celebrate the day we met 24 years ago! Can't wait! It's a lovely drive from Kimberling City! Venture out a bit for a taste of the past!“

“Since moving to Missouri a few years back white lightning was the first place I ate, and has since became a favorite comfort food. My dad and I eat a near weekly breakfast, and a few dinners a month. We love the care, and kindness the family, and team show us, you can taste the love they put in every bite. They also have the best chocolate chip cookie in all the land. Prove me wrong.“

“The food was great. The staff was vary nice . And if you want to swim you can order food from the window and eat outside at poolside and have a cold drink“

“This is far and away the best sports bar in town. Heck - they are pretty much my favorite place to eat, period! Their wings are the best ever - char-grilled, not fried or baked (as some mistaken reviewers have claimed. Everything is quite affordable, the service is beyond excellent, and the drinks are excellent! Do they get busy? Heck yes - and that's always a good sign! Do they occasionally have an off night? Doesn't every establishment? But do they respond to issues and take care of the situation? Absolutely! I often joke that this place is my own Cheers bar, as the staff is so good and know my name! If their food, drinks or service sucked, or was incredibly inconsistent, I'd never recommend them. But they are the best in town - and my first recommendation if someone wants a good place to watch a sporting event, they will always be my first choice to recommend!“

“This is our local store and service and food quality are top notch. The wait is usually not long. We visit CB all over the country because of the consistent quality.“

“The atmosphere here is really cool! My kids enjoyed all the pictures and patches. Food and service was great!“

“I've eaten at this establishment for over 20 years and have always found the food and service to be superb. The last three times I have eaten there the food and the service have both declined. I hope we can see it returned to its previous levels.

Parking: Nightly entertainment is normally a great bonus“

“Years ago (about 98-99) my father took me to silver dollar city. We walked through the park and I enjoyed the smells and sounds of everything. Then we walked by a magical stall with huge skillets with fire blazing underneath and mounds of the most mouth watering food I have ever seen. The smell alone was enough to make my stomach rumble. I asked for some and my father uttered the magic words most children grew up hearing "No, we can't afford it". The memory of that food would forever be etched in my mind. I'm now an adult with adult money and no one to say no to me. I finally had that magic fried food and it was everything I wanted it to be. Delicious and amazing. If I ever have the chance to come back I will definitely be wrong here again.“

“If you love the movie "A Christmas Story", you'll love the live performance at The Shepherd of the Hills. We throughly enjoyed it.
Just a note, if you buy your tickets online and you do not see seat info on your ticket, you'll need to go to the ticket office to get your tickets that show your seat assignment.
Enjoy!“

“10 star! All three, atmosphere, service, food,all of it. We left top of the rock looking for a quick burger and stumbled upon this place. Please visit if you’re visiting Branson. And if you come here for a bite to eat I hope you get the waiter we had! The waiters name on our ticket is Jeremy B. This gentleman is an EXCELLENT waiter!!!…..one of the best we have ever encountered. Thank you Jeremy for a wonderful experience! Check this place out if at all possible!“

“It was a great day and I highly recommend purchasing Tram tickets as the guide Joe was amazing with knowledge of history and the background of the animals. It is worth the extra cost. I recommend that you get reservations early for the tram as Joe said the animals are more active in the morning. The animals were active and able to get the best pictures up close.“

“I totally recommend visiting this bar/restaurant! The atmosphere and decor was definitely a cool 80’s vibe and right down our alley!! The drinks we had were amazing and delicious! The Thriller, Purple Rain and Pretty in Pink drinks are a must try!! Our waiter, Jerry, was the best by far that we’d experienced in Branson! He was fun, helpful to us newbies and a total delight! Thanks Jerry!!“

“Amazing place to visit!!!“

“Chef, thank you for the best chicken Philly I have ever devoured. The chicken and veggies seasoned and grilled perfectly, toasting the inside of the hoagie roll, brilliant, I mean, that crunch with every single bite until the end, just superb. Drenched in cheese, So much love went into to my meal, we will be back! Ps, service and overall vibe is amazing. What a gem❤️“

“This is my Place, to get burgers and fries. My Favorite place!“

“If you’re looking for a classy fine dining experience in the Branson area, The Worman House is a must. In our experience, everything about it lived up to a high standard. It was a perfect romantic atmosphere for us to celebrate our anniversary. The cocktails seemed high quality and I loved the Havana High Life myself.

Chilean Sea Bass is perhaps my favorite entree so I was excited to try theirs. The flavors, portion size, and plating were all outstanding in my opinion. I certainly savored every bite.

The service was excellent and we were well taken care of throughout our time here. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“My husband, son & I are saying in Lampe from Boston, MA. We have nothing but amazing feedback for The Fillin’ Station! It was so yummy and the staff was friendly. My 6-year-old loves a variety of foods, but never really vocalizes his favorites. He said that the Fillin Station was a 10/10 and the best food we had. If a kiddo said it, you know it’s the truth! If you’re in the Lampe area, check this place out, no questions about it!“

“Wonderful coffee shop dropped in with my family. The owner did a great job making us feel at home and great conversation. she has a awesome library hutch with free books of you are into reading. 10 out of 10 great place.“

“When you can get a Blueberry Cinnamon roll the size of your head,it's gotta be good! The cream cheese frosting was AMAZING. Then have a Blue Berry Muffin it's was a beautiful charming farm. What Missouri show- me -State is all about.“

“We tried Shepherd’s Grill for the first time. It was a Sunday for lunch with our church group just after noon and it wasn’t busy at all whereas other places in the area were swamped. My wife and I shared a sampler platter for $23.00 and my soft drink was $3.00. We thought the service was good and that the portions were worth the price. We both ate our fill and still took home food. However, we both considered the meats to be just satisfactory as the ribs were not falling off the bone and none of the meats were all that savory or tender. But for the price, we were satisfied and will most likely come back again some other Sunday with our church group.“

“Great place to eat. Awesome breakfast.“

“Best breakfast in West Branson and Branson in general!“

“This place was great for us! Food was good, wait staff was incredible! They went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. That says alot when traveling with a child who has Autism. So welcoming.“

“The serve at the bar was awesome!! The bartender ‘Tim’ was friendly and provided great service! We highly recommend the Buzzard Bar!“

“While traveling on business, I wanted to try some local cuisine. I decided to try Cheddars Scratch Chicken. It has some good reviews. Immediately upon walking in a notice, the decorations that were turning and hanging from the ceiling. I had to get a better look. Someone greeted me right away. I was told there would be about a ten minutes wait. Looking around at the decor, I kept wondering what that was turning hanging from the ceiling. My guess is that it was some type of boat propeller. But I'm unsure. The food was great. I could definitely go there again in the future. The drinks were great. The food was delicious. There's a huge fish tank in the area that you wait to be seat that was very nice.“

“Fresh very tasty food and we had a wonderful server“

“Great restaurant to eat in. The workers help us in all ways. Cooking foods are so great and tasty. Nice salad walk to area. Tasty salad events.“

“Just spent our 55th wedding anniversary there - food was presented beautifully and the service was top notch! Truly enjoyed the evening❣️“

“I recently visited Steak ’n Shake, and overall, it was a good experience. The food was tasty and lived up to expectations, and the prices were very fair for what you get. However, the new setup without servers takes some getting used to. It felt a bit odd, and I think adding more signs or instructions around the ordering process would really help customers navigate things more easily. If they can make the self-service system a bit clearer, it would be even better. But for good food at a good price, it’s still worth a visit!“

“Just had a relaxing lunch. The food was great. Anthony and Steve were our waiters and they did an excellent job. If you haven’t had Red Lobster in a while, give them a try. The new menu is great. I’d give them 5 stars!!“

“We don't eat at IHOP often but glad we stopped here. Pancakes are pretty yummy for a restaurant in this price range. Eggs, bacon and sausage good too. It's also a plus that they leave coffee pot at table so you can refill yourself without a wait. We noticed the table across from us who were already seated and waiting for their food when we came in. I felt bad as they finally got served as we were paying check. They had ordered waffles with omelets. Waffles can be a burden for restaurants but I have to say the waffles looked delicious.“
