The food and service were great. The grilled catfish with veggie kabob and steamed broccoli were delicious and figure friendly. I will definitely visit again! read more

Wow. Wow and wow! I have eaten a lot of barbecue and I must say this place is absolutely fabulous! I ate my meal and tasted everyone else's and I have to say that the ribs and the brisket are my absolute favorite but everything was awesome. I loved the general feel of the restaurant and the service was excellent. Easy to get to and plenty a room - a great place to have a beer and an appetizer or or bring the whole family. Try to get a taste of everything and definitely don't miss the spicy corn bites and vegetable skewers. You will not regret eating here! read more

Great burnt ends. A lot of smoke tastes. Best burnt ends out side of KC. Staff very helpful.

Excellent place to eat...great service...be ready for huge portions and the smoked cabbage is out of this world....super friendly waitress and very clean. read more

I typically unintentionally hit Nevada during lunch time as I travel for work so it was great to see a BBQ place open up and get another option. I was a bit disappointed in the meat as I'm a fan of dry rubs and would prefer to not use any sauce if possible. No rub and minimal smoke flavor made them pretty bland but a little sauce really picked up the flavor. The ribs and burnt ends are so-so but the reason I will come back is their great selection of vegetables as sides. There are several options if your trying to stay away from carbs. The smoked cabbage was a bit bland. But the vegetable skewer was delicious. I will definitely be going back next time I'm driving through town. read more

Driving through on a Wednesday evening looking for somewhere to eat. Came across this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Super impressed and we will be back!! I had a big baked potato loaded with smoked brisket, bbq beans, butter, sour cream, cheese, and jalapeños. Also ordered a side of smoked cabbage and spicy corn bites because I was curious about them. The potato was phenomenal and I can see why it was marked as a customer favorite. The corn nuggets were like a cross between cream corn bites and jalapeño poppers and served with a side of ranch. They were excellent. The cabbage was good but didn't really get much smoke flavor out of it. My wife had the fried catfish with a side of sidewinder fries and the bbq beans. The catfish was easily in the top three of any fried catfish we have had including Wooden Spoon (Gentry, AR) and Catfish Hole (Fayetteville, AR and Alma, AR). It was a thick slab of catfish filet that took up the length of the entire plate. Perfectly spiced and corn meal breaded and hot, flaky, and juicy in the middle. Added some fresh lemon juice and a bit of their tartar sauce and it was to die for. We will go back just to have that again. The sidewinder fries were really good as well. Also had good unsweetened iced tea. Good and strong just like this southern boy likes. Can't wait to come back through this neck of the woods so we can stop and eat here again. So freaking good!! And the service was excellent to go with the outstanding food. Restrooms were as clean as can be expected at 8:00pm but they could use a remodel. Overall, a great place that we will be telling others about. Give it a try!! read more

I've dined here many times and have not been disappointed yet. For a small town this is a great find but a bit pricey for where it is. My fav is the "Betty Baked Potato" this thing is huge and loaded, you just gotta try it. Good service and good food, a winning combination! read more

Food is good, nice atmosphere, nice waitresses. Prices seem to be getting a little high but I guess that is to be expected anymore. It's a great place to take the family they have something for about every appetite. We go here quite often. read more

Passing through on a road trip, we ate a late lunch here based on it's 4-star rating on Yelp- very good! Pros: thick delicious bacon, tangy bbq sauce, generous portions, meat sold by the pound (appropriate for low-carb diet), large menu, twisted fries were very tasty Cons: restaurant was very cold Thanks, ,Yelp! read more

Buzz's BBQ & Steakhouse - Barbeque Near Me - Nevada, Missouri

I would suggest management train the high school servers better. We asked twice for beer glasses before getting. And I ordered soup, and sandwich. When soup arrived there was not a spoon. I asked for it, but did not get until both of us finished our meal!! The manager would not take my entree off of the bill..Only the soup...This is not how a customer should be treated! read more

I am always impressed when people leave multiple paragraph reviews. I don't do that, and all I really want to is say the food was great and the wait staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. We are traveling through here again and may need to make a return visit. read more

We just left from this AWESOME hidden jewel of a restaurant. We started looking on YELP! It didn't pull up with the YELP app all the way from outskirts of Joplin, MO. It just so happened my husband saw big sign on highway right before the exit. So to the owners. If you have to pay yelp don't. Get more highway signs. I ordered Ribeye. Gigantic Caesar salad, portion was abundant I could actually eat the rest later and baked potato. It was the greatest. Cooked to perfection. My husband ordered the Prime Rib open faced and mashed potatoes and gravy and the best applesauce. He ordered as second side. It was like homemade with big chunks. Great. This was the best restaurant since we left IL. The precious waitress was so great. Looked like she was only server. No one was missed by her. Hope they'll be open every time we pass thru Nevada MO. Thank you for being there for us weary travelers. read more

My husband and I were driving from Minneapolis to Dallas one Friday and stopped here for dinner based on the Yelp reviews. It was far better than I expected. The service was great (quick and efficient) and the food was very tasty and reasonably priced. The place is neat as s pin. It was a huge surprise for a little town like Nevada. We would stop again if we are ever passing through. read more

We eat here once a month, sometimes as a family (5), sometimes just the wife and I on date night. Service is always great, food is always top notch. Nothing on the menu is spectacular, but it's diverse, and always comes fresh and hot. Great place with good value. read more

Yummo! On our way from KC to the Ozark's, we stopped for lunch at Buzz's. Split the dinner portion of the pork ribs (7 bones), with the sidewinder fries (way different), and the smoked cabbage. Everything was delish! This place was a nice find! read more

Nice, laid back comfortable restaurant with great service. The Ribs are amazing. Do not skip these. Ask for the hot BBQ sauce on the side. No draft beer which is my only complaint. Will always keep this BBQ joint on my list when I transit thru. Be prepared to talk about the Chiefs!! read more

Excellent smoked meat sandwiches and given the price, it's a super value. I had the Turkey Club and My wife had the Ham & Cheese. That and their unique Sidewinder fries were top notch! read more

We stopped in on our way back from Eureka Springs. Hubs had ribs, slaw and baked beans. The beans were really good and ribs were tender and had good flavor. I had a turkey sandwich and it was awesome. The meat was tender/moist. I also had fries which were home style and really good. Definitely would eat here again. The staff was very friendly, quick and dining/bathrooms clean. read more

Ordered the pulled pork and it was good, also got some hamsteak and I'll be passing on that next time. Very good location near our hotel, other side of the parking lot more or less. Family friendly atmosphere. read more

Delicious food, good prices and friendly service. My husband and I stopped by as we were traveling home to Louisiana. I ordered the combo platter with ribs and pulled pork and my husband ordered the fried catfish. We were both very pleased ands enjoyed our entire meal. Really liked the smoked cabbage (first time we ever tried that) and the cole slaw, although different than what we are accustomed to, we really liked it! I would love the recipe! :) read more

There's BBQ everywhere in Missouri, like everywhere, but this place is pretty darn good! The meats are pretty well smoked, hot, and food is fresh. The service was a bit slow the night we were there, but my baked potato loaded with pulled pork, baked beans, everything, you could possibly want on a baked potato. We will return! read more

Absolutely Loooooooove this place. Have eaten here 4-5 times. Always stop when we are coming thru in truck. Right next door is a truck stop & that makes it pretty handy. Everything thing ive tried on menu has been tha bomb. Tried bout all the sides & all are great. Tried brisket & burnt end pieces, both great. Just love getting to eat here. Staff is great also. Very pleasant. Thnx! read more

I loved absolutely everything on my plate! I don't think that has ever happened at any restaurant. Catfish was amazing! Service was great! Waitress was very attentive and kind. Will definitely be stopping here whenever we pass by. read more

Left after waiter passed my table by a half dozen times without greeting me, then proceeded to take drink order from another person across aisle who had just sat down. Guess he didn't want to wait on me. Too bad I couldn't give less than 1 star. read more

Pretty darn BBQ and that's coming from KC people. Between the fam we had ribs, turkey, pulled pork, and burnt ends. All were very good. The kids absolutely loved it. Definitely a good pick if you have the chance! read more

Very Yummy lunch with fast & good service. We were passing through and found Buzz's BBQ on Yelp with good reviews. My husband and I had shared catfish, burnt ends, fried corn, fried okra, huge fries and wonderful smoked cabbage, all good! Definitely will come back if we are ever in this area. read more

Well..... I ordered a prime rib dinner. The prime rib was cold. Not under cooked cold. Out of the fridge cold. Inside and out!!!!!! Apparently they put left over cooked meat in the cooler than feed it to you the next day or two. I will most definitely never go here again!! I would give it negative stars if I could. Also a prime rib is a roast cooked. When there are old grill char marks on both sides that means it was at one time cooked as a ribeye. Big difference!!!!!! read more

Had a few local fast food options and chose this diner. Amazing service and amazing food. Try the half chicken dinner. Classic American scenery right here read more

This is probably the worst BBQ I've had, and I've eaten bbq from new york to alaska and georgia to ohio. My husband ordered a medium rare top sirloin that was purple in the middle with 1/2 inch deep char marks that tasted like metal. He said he's had better steak at a hospital. My son's chicken tenders were microwaved out of a box. Weeds growing out front. The light over the table was a cold blue led that made the food look worse than it tasted. If there was any competition in this town buzz's would be out of business in a month. read more

Friendly staff and wonderful food and size able portions. I will come back on the way down south again. I had the brisket sandwich and okra.

Happened to see the "now open for breakfast" sign when filling up at Pilot gas next door. Great food and a friendly staff. The bacon and home made biscuit were awesome!! Great value for the amount of food you get... read more

Oh my! If I could've given this 6 stars, I would have! Ordered the open face roast beef dinner and the brisket dinner. The meat on both plates was delicious! The mashed potatoes were and gravy were out of this world and the thick, soft bread they put on the side were perfect! The staff were so friendly too!I would've taken a picture, but we downed our food way too fast! We will try to stop here on our way back home to Colorado... but oh my... will almost regret stopping here since we don't have one back home! Definitely will be on our list for our next road trip this way! Yum!!!! read more

Buzz's BBQ was a great place to eat! Their service was incredible and their food was even better. They were donating the proceeds of the Big Buzz to Shriners Hospital which is awesome! It's great to eat at local restaurants that give back to their community. We got the fried green beans as an appetizer and it was a hit! I'm very glad I stopped at Buzz's and will be returning next time i'm in the area. read more

Dirty cups poor service the waitresses don't listen not very happy with this restaurant.

I travel the whole country eating bbq and hot wings my two favorite meals, i will go out of my way now to get to buzzs bbq omg it is amazing the burnt ends were done to perfection read more

Buzz's BBQ & Steakhouse - Barbeque Near Me - Nevada, Missouri

Excellent BBQ! I had the combo platter with brisket and pork. BBQ beans and okra. Very impressive and delicious! I highly recommend it!

This was a fantastic meal! Two of us in our group ordered brisket potatoes, two ordered burnt end brisket plates and I ordered the brisket plate. Everything we ate was excellent from the meats to the beans, corn, potato salad, and fried okra. We were just passing through from Texas but would DEFINITELY stop here anytime! I highly recommend this place! read more

Had the ribs. They were a little dry, but we ate around 8:30pm. Only one craft beer, Boulevard Wheat. The fried okra was awesome, just like my grandma's. I would eat there again, mainly because there aren't many options in town. read more

Walked over for dinner, and was not disappointed. Very friendly service and the food was great! Started off with the BBQ nachos and an ice cold beer (so cold there was ice on the bottle...awesome). I had the burnt end plate with the smoked cabbage and fried okra, my son got a combo (smoked turkey and pulled pork) with the cabbage and beans. The food came out quickly and our server was very attentive. Would definitely recommend eating here if you are in town, or passing through. read more
