Restaurants near Waynesville

“Always fresh and so good. Presentation is always great too. I’ve been on a health journey and their smoothie bowls are always something I like to have when I’m in need of something sweet but still healthy!”

“The food is always wonderful I always say can’t believe something like that is in Waynesville. Now if they could get their food delivered to your table quicker last three times the wait after we ordered was terrible last visit waited 45 min to only find out they deleted our order….. weird. Wait staff is always very friendly. Seriously get with the program but again awesome food.”

“The size states 14 inch for a large. Nope, not true, just about 10 inches. The pizza is slimy and gooey, absolutely disgusting. Save your money, will never purchase again. I do not recommend this pizza.🤮”

“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!”

“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 don’t normally review fast food. I review restaurants. I also haven’t eaten at a McDonald’s in probably five years, and I’ve never been particularly impressed by McDonald’s in general. That said, this is a newly constructed location, roughly six months old, and a coworker whose opinion I trust very much told me this was by far the best McDonald’s he had ever eaten at. By miles. So I decided to give it a try.

We ordered a spicy chicken sandwich meal and a triple cheeseburger meal with medium fries. Sitting here at lunchtime on a Monday, snapping a few photos, I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed the food. The cheeseburger looks like a McDonald’s cheeseburger, but it actually tastes good. More importantly, I don’t feel ill eating it. The fries had to have come straight out of the fryer. Fresh, hot, and done right.

It was busy, but there was no wait. Everyone was moving with purpose. Once things were caught up, instead of standing around, staff were sweeping, wiping tables, and keeping the place clean. The staff was super friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the operation felt well run and dialed in.

I may not ever eat at another McDonald’s again. I’m not saying I’ll come here all the time, but if I am eating McDonald’s, it will be this one. I’m thoroughly impressed. Good job, McDonald’s. Keep this up and there just might be a future for the Golden Arches.”

“Great food and quick service! The burritos are always packed with fresh ingredients and never disappoint. Love that I can customize my meal just the way I like it!”

“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!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“The workers are always awesome......they have opened me up to try new things. I love this place!”

“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.”

“This place is great the food the people will definitely come back 5 stars for sure”

“We love Cancun, it’s the best Mexian Grill around in my opinion! The Pollo Bandito is AMAZING and it’s child friendly!”

“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!!!”

“We loved this place. This was my first time in a resturante like this. The prices were decent for the amount of food you get.
We loved the atmosphere. Leaned heavily into the nautical theme but also salty/houmorous street signs.
We did the recommended juicy explosion. My husband got medium and I got mild as I dont like overly spicy food. His was better. It had just enough heat your nose started to run. Flavor was great both ways. He likes spice and said he'd definitely go up.”

“I wanted to share a quick story and a huge thank you to the team at Agave Azteca in Ralston. ​While my wife and I were there after church today, we had a medical emergency that required an ambulance. It was a pretty scary moment, and I really want to recognize the manager on duty. He was incredibly sincere and kind. He stepped in to help with exactly what we needed without any hesitation or question, and simply let me know he was there for whatever else might come up. ​A big thanks to our waitress and the rest of the staff for being so friendly and professional throughout the whole ordeal too. We already knew they had the best salsa around, but the character they showed today proves they’re even better people. ​We’re so thankful you guys were there for us. We'll be back soon under much better circumstances!”

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

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

“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.”

“Really good food and very reasonable prices. Great atmosphere, clean, and friendly staff.”

“Great pizza. Super service. First visit and we loved it.”

“Love this place and genesis was spectacular. She once saved me from a lion attack in Africa. If it wasn’t her I wouldn’t be here today. Now I’m thriving and living life to the fullest!”

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