Yummy food and friendliest staff!
From the moment we walked in, the service was absolutely fantastic, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. The staff made sure every detail was taken care of without being overbearing, which really set the tone for the whole experience.
As for the food, outstanding. Every dish was full of flavor, beautifully plated, and served in generous portions. You can tell there’s real pride in the kitchen; the ingredients were fresh, the seasoning was spot on, and nothing felt rushed or underwhelming. It’s rare to find a place that nails both quality and quantity, but this spot delivered on both fronts.
Highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back.

The awesome reviews took me here today. They had so many options I had a hard time deciding. Molly, our awesome waitress, helped me to choose their regular cheeseburger claiming theirs are special because they have grilled cheese curds on top of the meat. It was probably one of the best burgers I’ve had in my life.
My mom had the yardbird salad and it was fantastic as well!
Molly was amazing, the atmosphere is incredible- super cozy and cute, the food was ready very quickly - it was a memorable lunch!
Come to the rusty rooster for a fabulous experience!

I visited for the second time today. It was so good when we went last year, we traveled an hour to go back. It was as spectacular this time as it was the first. Graham was our server and was on top of everything. He made sure we got everything just the way we wanted it and check on us to ensure we had everything we needed. He made being a server look easy when it’s not.
On the downside, they didn’t have the amazing cinnamon rolls we have been telling our kids about. No worries though because that gives us another reason to go back.
The food is amazing. They know how to do breakfast well. We ended up with a few to-go boxes as the serving sizes were more than enough for most of the family, which is quite rare.
I will be telling more people about this amazing place.

We think that the Rusty Rooster is probably one of the top breakfast places at the Lake. My wife and I were BLOWN away. Food, service, drinks... it's an amazing experience. Can't wait to be back over the summer!

I brought my family in with another family to the Rusty Rooster on Sunday morning, March 23. We sat back in the corner with 10 of us at two different booths. We had the best breakfast and time ever. Graham was our waiter, and he did a phenomenal job. We've had him before he is is so great with our kids, and we come back to the Rusty Rooster just as much for him as the restaurant. We are planning to request to sit in his area next time, as we will be back every time we are at the lake! Thanks Graham!
Kid-friendliness: We brought 6 total kids ad it was great.

Highly recommend! Food was very good and the atmosphere was fun and welcoming.
Our server, Graham, made our experience! He was fast, attentive and nice. I will make sure I eat here again soon when we visit Lake Ozark.
I'm gluten free and they offered items to fit my needs. The Power Bowl breakfast was very good.
The pancake burrito was enormous - definitely something to share!

Graham might be the best waiter I've ever had. Extremely thoughtful, kind, quick and worked his butt off! What a great place!! Can't wait to come back. I don't know if requesting a waiter is a thing, but we'll be requesting Graham when we come back!

Such a GREAT place for breakfast or lunch. But you better get there early, as in right whenthey open like we did otherwise you're going to have to wait to get in. Today, I had the créme brûleé toast. It was DELICIOUS!

We were quickly seated and given the extensive gluten free menu. Our waitress was fantastic! She was courteous and helpful! My wife and I ordered breakfast and gluten free french toast; oh my! It came with blackberry compote that was terrific! It was our first time there but, it won't be our last.
