My husband and I are thrilled to have found this place to eat in Columbia, so much so that we wish…read morethere was a location where we live. I haven't found a good fried chicken place in over 25 years, and when I bit into the chicken and tasted their garlic mashed potatoes I realized that I had found the next best thing to what one believes grandma's home cook meal would taste like. The side biscuit was a treat to have and went well with honey or their wonderful jam. In fact, my husband and I are certain that their biscuits and gravy for breakfast must be wonderful based on their side biscuit. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly as well. I also noticed how quickly food was served for anyone waiting for their meals after they were ordered. I anticipate that we will be back to enjoy their other food options.

I had a solid experience at Ozark Mountain Biscuit Bar with a few standout highlights. I ordered…read morethe veggie scramble, and while the flavors were good, the eggs were a bit overcooked for my liking. That said, the bacon definitely made up for it--thick-cut, perfectly crispy, and super satisfying. The real star, though, was the biscuit. It had an amazing texture--fluffy on the inside with just the right amount of structure--and the homemade blackberry jam was absolutely delicious. It added the perfect touch of sweetness and really elevated the whole meal. Overall, a good spot with some great elements. I'd definitely come back.

I love this scratch kitchen chain…read more If you want to feel like you are genuinely getting a home cooked meal then this place is going to hit the spot. The fresh croissants with honey butter and a large drink to start then get some appetizers like the onion rings. There are so many options and each portion is large so don't let your eyes get ahead of your stomach. I got the painkiller cocktail that is just straight liquor so there is a limit of 2 per customer so please drink responsibly. Try the flavored lemonades and ice teas as you get unlimited refills which is a great deal! The fried white fish was so crispy and flavorful. I paired it with the green beans and sweet carrots. My companion got the smokehouse bacon burger and that sauce was amazing! If you save room, get the giant carrot cake or skillet cookie! This restaurant is very dark on the inside so it can be hard to see perfectly. There were ample accessible parking spots. The flooring is a little slick but all one level which is nice. The bathrooms were a little hard to navigate due to the heavy doors and locking mechanism.

We shared the chicken wrap meal as well and it is a very large portion, enough for two people or two meals!!

I believe Flyover could be a strong contender for my favorite restaurant in mid Missouri. Our…read morewaitress was sweet and attentive - dinner moved along, but was paced nicely. My drink had a rose petal in it, but that little touch didn't feel contrived or cheeky - it was just a nice pop of color in a great-tasting drink. The baked Boursin cheese was absolutely amazing - I walked out of there realizing I probably ate half a wheel of cheese, and I totally didn't regret it. Dinner was the highlight - I ordered the boom boom shrimp - served on a bed of sushi rice, there were mangos, thinly sliced jalapeños, purple cabbage, shrimp fried to perfection, and a nicely flavored boom boom sauce on top. My only criticism of this place is that plates come out of the kitchen as they make them, so be prepared to share a dish or wait. We were halfway through my dinner before my friend's fish and chips arrived. I'm happy to share, but I'm not a fan of this dining trend. Overall fantastic dinner experience!!

Neat as a pin. Whoever is running this is sure paying attention to every detail. Mad Cow is delivering on all fronts and doing a fantastic job for their customers. Hats off to whoever runs/owns this place. Now...the only thing I find crazy about this place is the name. Mad Cow?? Wasn't that a bad thing in our society? Wasn't Mad Cow harmful to humans? But hey....they must know what they're doing with the name. lol.

I did not enjoy this place at all. I was optimistic going in because i love a good burger joint but…read moreit did not please me at all. for starters, there was nobody in the restaurant which says a lot. When i ordered, the lady was not nice at all. She didn't say thank you or smile one time. Not the kinda service I like at all. Especially If i'm buying from your business. The guy who gave me my food and cooked it seemed a lot friendlier and gave me a smile. The food was just not good. I hate to be harsh but the taste was off. My boyfriend agreed that something just did not taste right. I appreciate them cooking it right then and there, so I was expecting a good taste but did not receive that. If there are better choices in the area, i recommend going to them any day. for improvement, the staff needs to be friendlier and more inviting!! i've seen that in a couple other of their reviews too!

Things started out well, the BF had a tasty Manhattan and I had a mocktail that was subtle and delicious, and not overpriced as mocktails often are. But alas. The house salads that we ordered were overdressed in a vinaigrette so acidic we couldn't finish them. And there wasn't much to them. Other than greens and fried shallots and pickled red onions, there was a tiny dusting of some finely grated cheese. And who needs two kinds of onions and nothing else on the salad? Then we each had a bowl of the matzo ball soup, which was ridiculous. Three matzo balls sitting in a quarter-inch of broth that was so unbelievably salty that we couldn't eat that either. We ended up asking for hot water to dilute the broth to a level of saltiness that was edible. The chicken was okay and the matzo balls were okay. A little gummy. But the broth was just awful. It all made me wonder if the chef had lost their sense of taste due to Covid or something. Seriously. I've had that happen to me a couple of times and all I could taste was really basic stuff like sour and salt. And our waitress was totally uninterested in trying to make our experience better. She wasn't rude, she was just indifferent to the fact that we'd been served two courses that we absolutely couldn't eat. Didn't offer us anything to compensate or even express any sympathy about it. We got out of there as fast as we could and made ourselves feel better with an Andy's frozen custard.

I shared my food with her daughter, I felt ILL the next day- throwing up, nonstop diarrhea (Thank God I work from home), sweating and dizzy and her daughter had the some issues (just mild compare to mine since she didn't eat much as she felt the ribs were dry). I reached out to the owner, Gerald Nathan, and first he blamed covid (no I don't have covid, I even got tested as I assumed the same as first and also I am fully vaccinated), then he accuses my friend of POISONING me. I simply reached out to make him aware of the issue, and I understand I order when they were finally starting to shut down (I ordered round 7;30, they close at 8), and honestly things happen, and this was his response. this isn't a proper way to treat customers.

We were in town for various reasons and like I do I looked for several things. One of those being…read morebest breakfast biscuits in town. I'm originally from West Virginia where great biscuits are a religious observance. These are great biscuits, the best I have had north of the Mason/Dixon line ... by a lot. Everything about this place was about surpassing my expectations. Let's start with the sausage. It's locally sourced. It has this rich mellowness to it that is just lovely. It's not particularly spicy, not as peppery or sage-y as a lot of sausage you will get on most breakfast biscuits. Wonderfully subtle, and it works perfectly with their biscuits. So ... the plain biscuit. I tend to think of biscuits as having a very fluffy inside, a bit of crispness on the outside. Certainly the latter, but the inside is quite dense, but still soft. It doesn't have the saltiness that a lot of the biscuits I have had in the Midwest have had. Just a really wonderfully rich flavor. They do like to crumble a bit, so if you are eating them in the car keep the foil in your hand. The Cheddah Biscuit Oh my ... the same basic biscuit but with cheese infusing it. Then he throws on a little honey butter so you get a bit of sweetness. Once again an amazingly rich flavor. The Bacon N Cheese Biscuit This one might be my favorite. All of the above and bacon! I mean really, what else do I need to say? I will be posting about a couple of other places, but this was the highlight of the food side of our trip. We will get to Columbia once or twice a year, this will always be a stop for us.
