50 Best American Restaurants near Nixa

“Had the pleasure of meeting Tony and Rosa today! Not only were they super friendly, but they are from the same area in Chicago that I’m from! Imagine that! What a small world. We both agreed that the number one thing we miss from home is the food and it was so nice to meet them and get a little taste of Chicago out here in beautiful Nixa. They sell tamales by the dozen, I can’t wait until tomorrow for lunch! Five star service, food, cleanliness, and owners! Stop by and say hello to Tony and Rosa anytime they would be glad to see your smiling face!“

“Seriously the friendliest staff ever! You can tell from management, bartenders and servers everyone loves working at this establishment; and the service reflects that! The menu has a wide selection and the food is always excellent.“

“The fields were in rough shape when we were out here last. I generally like this park though, the staff is good, you can drink on premises, and the fields are generally in good shape. I can only say that it was likely all the flooding we had earlier in the month that might have contributed“

“First time here and the folks where extremely friendly and the BBQ was the best! The team was very welcoming the moment we walked in the doors with a cheerful greeting! I would recommend this place to anyone who’s craving some great BBQ!! The picture represents the outcome of my delicious meal.“

“We experienced a very enjoyable and affordable lunch on a Tuesday. Our waitstaff Cercy and Amber were friendly and the right level of attentive. The restraunt has recently introduced a ten dollar lunch menu, which had several nice choices and made it a very affordable lunch. My chicken nachos could have fed me two meals but I ate them all, delicious and a beautiful presentation. There is a lovely view, a outdoor bandstand and dining area. Bands on the weekends Daily specials Sundays thru Thursdays. Fun, interesting decor. A large separate bar area perfect for a party. Looking forward to lunching here again.“

“2 of my elderly dear friends visited today, they like the food, prices and atmosphere but today was exceptional from what I'm told. Aaron was efficient, skilled, friendly and courteous to them today in every way, he even carried their leftover food to the car for them upon leaving. Thank you Aaron!!!“

“Great place and good food“

“I love blacksheep but tonight my food was just not good and it was so disappointing because we usually never have any complaints. I got the loaded fries and they were not very good which getting them to go happens but the "pulled pork" was just huge chunks of extremely tough meat I could barely chew.“

“Hands down best burger I’ve ever had, impressed!! Telling all our friends, can’t wait for our next visit 🤤 I had the American girl burger 🍔 my husband, daughter and her friend had the ugly burger and son had the Elvis ALL devoured!“

“Wonderful Server with great knowledge about the menu, Great tasting food, nice sized portions and a great atmosphere! I can't wait to come back again !! The food is so good and worth the wait!!“

“We went here for my wife’s birthday dinner. It is a very popular place and we enjoyed it and our server. Atmosphere was very friendly and so were the staff. My wife had the ribeye, broccoli with cheese and loaded baked potato. I don’t remember the last time that she ordered and eat a steak that size as well every thing else on her plate! Her steak was done as she requested. I had the top sirloin and half a rack of ribs, also baked potato and red beans with rice. It was delicious and perfect blend of each. We will be back for another dinner or lunch. The restaurant was so busy and so many places to sit, I didn’t want to impose on the guests to take more pictures.“

“I love this Culvers for dine-in. However, the people preparing drive-thru orders need to check their orders. I sat and waited quite sometime for my order, only to get home and see that there was no salad dressing for my chicken cashew salad. I had none at home. A dry salad is not that good. 🙁“

“Couldn’t be seated in patio, reserved (says hostess)…. What’s up with that, no one showed up. I went out there after no one showed up there after a couple hours (brunette bartender had no answers, thought I was being rude asking about it being open, so had an attitude, said “well, you can go out there but you won’t have service.” Great attitude, right? Ginger bartender and server Faith made up for it. Those two were great.“

“Best place to catch a sport game the Wings are to die for and When Kc is playing you wanna be there“

“Food is always consistent, but the best thing they have going is their service. Emmaline waits on me often and does an absolutely fantastic job. She’s the type of server that almost reads your mind and brings you what you need before you even ask. Great service each and every time I visit by Emmaline.“

“There lunch crew today was great! Quick and very friendly service!“

“I have recently been diagnosed with Alpha gal syndrome. I spoke to three different employees as I went through the line and they all knew what I was talking about and they helped me pick out food it wouldn't make me sick. Even though they were young they had a lot of knowledge so somebody is definitely paying attention. I had a delicious spicy grilled chicken sandwich with their chips which are not fried and the same oil they fry any beef in at all. Everything was delicious and healthy and fresh thank you Grotto I will be coming back for more“

“I highly recommend the Grilled Chicken with Swiss cheese and avocado, it is amazing!“

“Party of 6, 3/9/24, Sat 5:30pm. Our wait was only a few minutes, Greeter Josh smiling and friendly. Server Astrid did a great job thoughout the meal; personable, quality checks, tbl manicured, drinks refilled. Food temps and quality great! Owner Avid seen in the dining room the whole time actively greeting and seating guests, and assisting the staff. Well done everyone--this is our new place!!“

“Since the south Glenstone location in Springfield reopened have eaten there twice inside. Service was great. Food was good. Price was the same as before restaurant including bathrooms are clean. Called in a carry out today it was ready when I went to pick it up and still warm upon getting home realized there was a mixup in the order. Called and girl who answered gave me to I assume the manager who was very nice and understanding and offered to absolutely Fix it and even through in aside for my trouble. Only took 10 minutes to get the corrected order and it was very good. Would definitely recommend this location for dine in and carry out !“

“Great breakfast! The fruit bowl was grapes, strawberries and banana, my favorites! Yummy Belgian waffle too! And our waitress was so nice! We will be back!“

“We visited The Ozark Mill for the first time for dinner and it was one of the best meals out that we have had in a long while. Our server, Eryn, went above and beyond for us. We had family visiting who are deaf and Eryn noticed right away and began signing to them. The effort she made to make them feel welcome warmed our hearts! The food matched the incredible service and the corn muffins are a must-have with any meal. The scenery and ambiance were beautiful. We will definitely be back very soon. 10/10 ❤️“

“Great Brisket sandwich great service I will be back“

“Delicious food and wonderful service! We happened to get Tammy as our server on both our visits to this location and now will request her every time! Besides being friendly and fun, she made helpful recommendations, kept my tea filled without being asked, and even brought a hot order of fries when my husband happened to mention the first order had arrived lukewarm. Looking forward to our next visit!“

“Southbound Bar and Grill, I salute you, and I thank for providing a stage for American Aquarium to exercise their craft this past Saturday night. They rocked the place loud and hard. They played a fantastic set, and the crowd, obviously very faithful followers, ate it up. I have attended shows at various venues in Springfield, but I have never seen anything like the rock and roll show American Aquarium put on at Southbound Bar and Grill. I drove 365 miles from Fremont, NE to see the show, and I would do it again, so please bring them back soon. Your club is easy to find, offers free and easy parking, great food and drinks with prices that are in line with other venues in Springfield, and a staff that provides excellent service at every level. I highly recommend the Southbound Bar and Grill. They are a great live music venue.“

“The food here is always amazing!! Today my sister and I had a couple appetizers. She also had a loaded baked potato very reasonably priced! Our appetizers were spinach & artichoke dip with fried pita chips and fire crackers with chicken in them. So good!! You can't go wrong here!! Great service too!!“

“The Roost is our golf league sponsor all summer long. They provide dinner to our winning captain all league. We always go after league to the Roost on Cox Rd and they take great care of us. We are an erratic, lively bunch that shows up all at once, so we can be a real handful. But always do great work!!! Thanks Gene Lofaro!!!!“

“We love going to the South Glenstone Village Inn! Service and food are great! Michael was our server today, and have had him before. He is awesome and works so hard to take care of his cuustomers!“

“The service staff makes this the go-to place in South Springfield. The burgers and wings are phenomenal, and the drinks never disappoint.“

“I don’t recommend this place at all! Worked here back in 2013 on the restaurant side and for no reason (or should I say some bs reason), banned my husband from coming in there. He didn’t come in when I was working nor did he ever cause any trouble when he did come in. The owner at the time and the other employees just didn’t like him. That tells me a lot about little towns. Food back then wasn’t even all that great! Haven’t been back since I quit and will never go back there! I hit no on do you recommend but it says that I recommend this place. Not going to the trouble to redo my post!“

“Best slaw and beans anywhere“

“Steak was about a #6 on scale of 1-10.
Ordered medium, it was well done. Could've had some more flavor to. I don't like to send food back and also didn't want to complain as we were with another couple. Fry's are great btw. Will go back and try again. It's also very hard to find someone that can cook a good steak honestly.“
