Restaurants near Waynesville

“Had an amazing lunch today at Mu Bahn Thai. I ordered the Appetizer Sampler and was impressed. A taste of 4 of their items left me wanting more of each. I had the Spicy Crispy Chicken from the Wok page of the menu. You get to select your heat level! I like it hot so I chose Thai Hot (which is still not the hottest) Good thing my server was on his game to keep my tea glass filled! Huge portions, great presentation, mouth watering flavor, very nice atmosphere and decor inside. All thumbs up!”

“I love picking up premade parfaits to have for an easy grab and go throughout the week. The loaded shakes and mega teas are awesome. When out and about I stop in to visit Michelle and John who are the nicest people. I use the products at home and I’m a preferred member earning a discount. I’ve made my own protein balls, donuts, shakes and teas with their recipes and my random off the wall home recipes. Cant beat the free workouts offered as well.”

“This was my second time working with CookieZ and she nailed it again! She made due date cake for my angel in heaven 💜 🌈 👼”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped into El Centario in Waynesville after a long day, and it did not disappoint. The chicken and steak fajita nachos were loaded, flavorful, and easily some of the best I’ve had in the area. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere, the staff was attentive, and everything came out fresh and hot.

Definitely the best sit-down Mexican restaurant around, highly recommend if you’re passing through or local to the area! 🌮🔥”

“I had lunch at Ursula's yesterday with a group of friends, and all of us have been to Germany and were expecting authentic food. Ursula's did not disappoint! I had the Bratwurst platter, which was delicious; several others had the Schnitzel, also wonderful! Alles lecker und gemütlich! Highly recommend. I'm definitely going back for the Schnitzel.”

“Very good spot I love to work in enjoy the outdoor space. Definitely always want my drink mixed with oat milk and this is a beautiful place to have an outdoor event just needs little upkeep.”

“Love Nellie's. I always go for gambling and end up having a great time. This last time the crowd was a little more welcoming then normal (not like it isn't welcoming before just this time we were drug into the bar shenanigans?) bartender angel is great. Owners are old family friends to me, love the machines and karaoke isn't that bad lol.

Parking: Customers park how they want but there is more parking around back also!”

“Great place, awesome Pizza”

“Always the best time with the best people. Thanks for having us.”

“We had an impromptu gathering and the staff and cook did an amazing job!!! We had 40+ people around 7pm with food and drinks. So impressed with amazing food!”

“We really like Subway's sandwiches and wraps. I appreciate that they are happy to cut our wrap in half, so my wife and I don't have to worry about that.”

“I always get my Starbucks here because it’s by both the highschool for my regular class days and the middle school for my summer school day. Staff is incredibly nice, and inside is extremely clean, highly recommended Starbucks.”

“A great place to hang out over a nice meal. Very fair prices. A real treasure. Great staff.”

“I’ve never in my life been greeted upon entering a McDonald’s until today — and it completely made my day! The staff were so sweet, welcoming, and attentive. This location went above and beyond for a fast-food spot. Good job.”

“Now I don’t wanna hear it that this isn’t Mexican food. You don’t go here to have Mexican food, you go here to have food made fast with a hint of Mexican flavor. We found the store to be particularly clean and the staff was very friendly. The young girl noticed we were having difficulty ordering from our app she came over and asked if she could help. We wanted to get a rice bowl but it says chicken rice bowl and on the app I couldn’t make out if they offered any other proteins. She looked at our app and couldn’t make it work either but on the kiosk it was much more simpler. The frustrating part that is when you hit check out it still shows up as a chicken bowl with added protein of meat. That seems like an easy fix. Why not just call it a Mexican rice bowl and let the Customer figure out the protein or no protein. Anyway, I found the need to be Surprisingly tender although it did seem like my wife got more meat in her bowl and I did. It’s still a good value and it filled us both up. This one in Saint Roberts is much better than the one down the street in Waynesville.”

“Yum! Needed some good protein and got it with in house made chicken tenders. The regular chicken has strong flavor. The tenders are lighter. Hit the spot just right! Grilled and fried both were tender and juicy.”

“I just left DTCC and sipped my coffee. Holy smokes. Heather just nailed my white chocolate lavender mocha. Sometimes steamed almond milk messes with the flavor but I’m sitting here in lavender mocha heaven thinking about how I can’t tell the difference between the almond milk and dairy… and the flavors are spot on. Totally started my day right. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“I love that they use white coffee. I appreciate their kind customer service. The variety of flavors with the month/seasons keeps my taste buds satisfied.”

“Shrimp Chimichanga with spicy cheese sauce!!!!! Insane delicious!!!😎 My absolute favorite spot in St. Robert, MO!!!”

“Always hot and always divine! We will miss you when we leave here!”

“Me and my better half went to 28 shots for the first time tonight! Hands down the best bar atmosphere ever! We aren’t really the bar scene kind of people, but when I say it was the most inviting,relaxed and accepting environment I ain’t lying! Stephanie is mixing them drinks right, Samantha got the food on point.. the owners 🤩 hands down, love them! Stop by and enjoy the S&M burger and the shooter fries! And the fried chicken salad! And the ranch😍. And to top it alllll off…. they make the Washington Apple perfect! 👌 10/10 recommend!”

“The best restaurant in town! Great service great staff and food was HOT! The new management has turned this place around! Great job everyone”

“Best Mexican food ever!! The food is delicious and the service is amazing! 10 🌟”

“I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for years now after a friend recommended it to me but we hadn’t had the opportunity to stop by on our travels from STL to Springfield until recently, I can’t believe I waited so long!!! This place is a gem! A must-visit restaurant if you are ever in the area! The food was delicious, the service was wonderful, very warm and welcoming and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Definitely recommend the egg drop soup, it was one of the tastiest versions of this soup I have ever eaten! Everything looked delicious and I can’t wait to visit again soon for another delicious meal the next time we are in the area! Highly recommend!!!”

“A wonderful cafe that serves comfort food with great service. The staff is cheerful and accommodating. On Mother's Day the cook did not show up. One of the waitresses rolled up her sleeves and did the cooking! Talk about dedication. The wait staff all deserve a raise”

“The BEST breakfast in town! Great food, great people, great atmosphere! This was my first time, but for sure will not be the last! Do yourself a favor and stop here for some great grub!”

“Love this place! Been several times. Ramen and the sushi is delicious!”

“Hands down the best steakhouse in Missouri. Carnivores isn’t just a place to eat — it’s an experience. From the moment you walk in, the energy hits different. The vibe is relaxed but sharp, the drinks are crafted like art, and the food? Straight fire. You can taste the care in every cut — juicy steaks cooked perfectly, sides that actually have flavor, and cocktails that belong in a big-city lounge. What makes it special is the heart behind it. The owner and team treat guests like family and carry that “Warrior” pride in everything they do. Whether you’re there for date night, a family dinner, or just to unwind at the bar, you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. This isn’t your average steakhouse — it’s the one the others wish they could be. “Where Warriors Feast” isn’t just a slogan, it’s the truth.”

“Food is amazing and service was great. Definitely recommend!! 👍🏻”
