50 Best American Restaurants near Nixa

“Love this restaurant! My boyfriend and I always get a sausage breakfast burrito and a chorizo breakfast burrito and it is always so good. It has hasbrowns, eggs, and plenty of cheese inside. Their green salsa is soooooo good🤤🤤 haven’t tried their lunch yet but I would love to very soon!“

“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“

“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.“

“Favorite place in Nixa to stop for a good filling lunch!“

“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.“

“Food was great. Huge portions, waitress Christina K did a great job 10 out of 10“

“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. 🙁“

“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.“

“Used the party room for a going away party. Fantastic service, the food was amazing and came out quickly. Private bathrooms and entry. Tv's. Music. This was a great space! Definitely recommend for any gathering.“

“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.“

“First time going to the Grotto and was not disappointed. They have burgers, chicken sandwiches, salads, tacos, and appetizers. When you walk in the menu board is on the left, you look over it, and then order and pay at the register. The only negative that I have is that they try to pressure you into providing a tip immediately by having the tip screen pop up before you can pay. The only service they provide is bringing you your order. You get your own drinks, silverware, condiments, napkins, and refills so I am not sure why they ask for a tip. Anyway, the food was great. My wife ordered the grilled chicken meal with two sides. She got the side salad and sweet potato fries. She loved everything about it. The chicken was moist, the fries crunchy, and salad wonderfully seasoned. I ordered the Swiss burger and fries. The fries were hot and crispy and the burger was delicious with the house made aioli sauce. The only issue was that the burger was a tad dry, but not enough to say it wasn't delicious. We also ordered the chips and caso appetizer which was really good with the caso having a nice kick to it. Would return to try something else.

Kid-friendliness: Some kids meals were available.“

“I visited yesterday evening. It was a wonderful experience from when I walked in until when I left. The waitress / bartender was 'Hannah'. Her level of customer service went so far above expectations, that I will literally and physically return to this specific location again and again. There are several establishments that have great food, and a great atmosphere, but not all of them have a highly skilled and extremely pleasant personal public interface - Hannah. Thank you again! I will be bringing colleagues and friends on the next visit.“

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

“Great hamburgers 🍔👍 Nice to find a clean place to eat!! Only one complaint... only diet soda options are Diet Pepsi ... 🤮“

“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.“

“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!!“

“well this Sunday at the Alamo Drafthouse and support your entertainers with your local Talent so please go out and support“

“Had a great meal today. No better chicken wings anywhere! Francis was a GREAT waitress to us. She tended to everything with a smile. Many thinks to her! All 5 of us enjoyed our meal very much with her help. She kept the glasses full and tended to everything very good!“

“Shelby was our waitress for dinner, and she was phenomenal! This was our first time there. We were visiting from Ashland, MO for a cheer competition. Service was incredible and food was ahhhh-mazing!!! Highly recommend and can’t wait to return when we come back to Springfield!“

“The food and drinks are awesome especially the purple haze drink. Annie our server was just awesome. Love it“

“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!“

“Stellar customer service. Excellent food and drink. Lovely atmosphere. Support local, friends. This is a GEM!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finley Farms Restaurant is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with stunning views that make the dining experience even more special. We had the shrimp and grits and the fried pork chop—both were cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The shrimp and grits were creamy and rich, while the pork chop was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The attention to detail in both the food and the ambiance truly sets this place apart. A must-visit for anyone looking for a fantastic meal in a beautiful setting! Can't wait to come back!“

“Great food and shakes. Service is a bit slow, not due to volume, but due to the fact that only one employee, the girl with light brown hair, seems to work and she does everything bussing tables, making our shakes, delivering orders, etc. for the entire restaurant. The other employees stand for long periods of time staring at their phones while this poor girl runs circles. One young gentleman who works here spends a significant amount of time behind the counter running his fingers through his fledgling beard as if this will coax it to grow instead of just spreading dead skin cells and random sheds over the shake area. Other than that, it is great.“

“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!“

“I love the coffee and French toast. the skillets are ñice. good pie. very good customer service and great waitresses and cooks .“

“This place is pretty amazing. The food is great, and it comes out pretty fast, but often times there is only one or two people working there, and they have to tend to the bar also. The atmosphere can be good and can be bad. Normally there are just a lot of old people hanging and playing poker or some other old person game. I would check this place out if you’re in town for sure though!

Parking: The parking is weird, it is very hidden at first along with the restaurant itself, and one time a Sherwin Whilliams semi full of paint jackknifed and we had to go off-road to get out.“

“This is one of the best places in springfield to eat!“

“Best slaw and beans anywhere“

“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!“

“A little late night fun for us. Went to play darts. We had basically the entire place to ourselves. For a Friday night it was very quiet. Staff said they get busy when there are major sports games happening. Service was great and food was good. We made our own fun ?“

“Good food with easy dinning and friendly atmosphere“

“Amanda and Amber our servers were very courteous and friendly. Chef Zach is the best, he customized my dish, Chicken Piccata considering my food allergy and it was to die for. Probably the best I have eaten so far. Thanks Chef for the extra effort and attention to detail .“

“always clean and tidy........food is pretty good“
