16 Best American Restaurants in Osage Beach

“I have had dinner here few times this summer. The food is always good. If they would serve bread, it would be a 5 star. He mussels are delicious, but you really need some bread to go with them. The only bread they have is cornbread that is an additional charge. I’ve never been to a restaurant with no bread available……?“

“I had an amazing experience here. The chef made my food way above expectations. I even went and thanked the chef personally after we ate our food“

“From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and outstanding service. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and truly made us feel welcome. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Whether you're there for a casual bite or a full meal, you won't be disappointed. The new High Tide Pool area is a total game-changer! Super clean, great energy, and a fun crowd without being overwhelming. The staff at the pool was just as incredible as inside—on point, helpful, and always keeping the vibe just right. Redheads easily stands out as the best lake bar and restaurant in the area. Great atmosphere, amazing food and drinks, top-tier service—we had an unforgettable time. No complaints at all! Can't wait to come back!“

Tons of options for breakfast, and my fiancé really enjoyed the omelet bar. We might have to come stay here again just to eat the breakfast! :)“

“Just wanted to say “thank you” to Zach, the wonderful customer service man at HyVee. My daughter ran out of diapers while the house was on quarantine and he went out of his way to make sure we where able to get them. You are appreciated!!!!“

“I did not want to go through a drive-through, but I was looking for something quick. I don’t usually stop at Applebee’s, but I’m glad I did at this location. From the way I was greeted at the door to the way the server was quick and attentive, even the way the bus boys were cleaning the tables off, I was blown away about how quick and efficient this team was. And they were incredibly polite. Food was exactly as I expected, but the service was top-notch. If you’re looking for something quick, a clean restaurant, and decent to eat, stop here.“

“Beth was our waitress….. she is always outstanding.“

“First time there tonight. Excellent dinner from the lobster stuffed mushrooms to the salad, excellent blue cheese dressing and crumbles and the very good prime rib. Our service was also very good.“

“This place is huge! Boat parking and car parking. Gas station for your watercraft as well (check hours closed on Mondays). They have a main area with tons of outdoor seating and a pool. They also have some indoor seating. Then they have next door a 5 tier pool with a large stage for live music (check the website for music schedule, age restriction hours, and days of operation). We sat at the main area outside. There are lots of flies so turn on the fans or ask for the little fly spinners. We ordered the grouper finger appetizer which was crusted with corn flakes and super good, and it came with a raspberry tarter sauce which was great. We also got the jalapeno popper appetizer (you order per popper), and it is gigantic and absolutely stuffed with cream cheese and crab, great breading as well, it also came with a raspberry sauce which paired great, and ranch. These will fill you up so we also shared a seafood pasta. It comes with a deep fried dinner roll (so good), and a side salad. The pasta was super creamy and had good flavor. We also shared the grouper sandwich (which you can get fried, blackened or grilled), we got ours blackened and we chose fried green beans as our side from the recommendation of our server. The sandwich was great and came with regular tarter sauce, the fish was cooked perfect and had great flavor. The only thing was maybe it was a thinner or smaller piece of fish so the bread to fish ratio wasn't quite there, but the taste was good. The green beans came with ranch to dip and the batter was similar to like a fried pickle batter. They have a daily special and for Monday it is a dollar off Pain in the ass drinks (normally $9, so $8 on special). They are served blended/frozen in a small cup. It was delicious and refreshing, but just be aware of the small drink size for that. Overall we enjoyed our time here and definitely want to come back for swimming or live music for some more atmosphere in the future.“

“The food was delicious and the place had a nice atmosphere. Our order was taken at our table. The waitress was very nice but seemed to be intoxicated. She forgot a few things, which isn't a big deal at all, but she was very flighty and all over the place. Other than that it's a very nice place!“

“I am not happy that they doubled the price on the impossible burger.

Vegetarian options: They recently doubled the price on the impossible burger. It takes 660 gallons of fresh water to produce a beef burger and 5 gallons to produce an impossible Burger“
