She also had to bus the tables. This in no way affected service. She is just that good. Also for lunch on Wednesday you get a free dessert. We will definitely be stopping here on our trips from Mesquite to Branson.

Small town restaurant with a big town flavor…read more - Note the hours of operation as part of the afternoon is closed. - Friendly servers but not very helpful for the first timer. Couldn't really offer me suggestions. She just said, "everything is good" - I had the pork chop and my wife the steak. Both were flavorful and the portions were quite large. Good value! - Atmosphere is fun and casual. Lots of wall decorations and lights. It is a tight space and the tables are close, however still comfortable. - Low volume rock / blues music playing so it was easy to hold a conversation. They also have a stage where (I guess) live bands can play. - Restrooms are tight and are not ADA (wheelchair) compliant so I'm sorry say that this may not be a good place to go if you have such requirements. They are also a one-holer, so there will be a line. - This is a slower eating place. Not a quick 'serve ya up' place. You will need more time to eat here, but this is great if you are looking for someplace to spend with friends. - No freaking knives are on the table... So ask if you need one to cut you salad or appetizers. I would go here again, and would recommend to anyone near Poteau.

Served on a bed of pasta with a brown sauce! Real crab with very little breading! Aaaaamazing! My wife had the Catfish Royal and I tried the Taste of New Orleans. Service is fast and on point. Our drinks were never empty and we were checked on often. Portion size is huge! I love their sauce. Everything was outstanding. A must visit!

I know you're supposed to eat catfish at a catfish house, but neither of us wanted fried catfish :). I'm here to tell you the alternative options are very tasty! Here's the setup- you are seated and they automatically bring you a bowl of coleslaw, baked beans, hush puppies, and a plate that has pickles and onions on it. This is for you to share, and they will keep refilling it as long as you empty it lol You then order what you want for your main off the list on the wall. I really can't eat fried food so I went with the salmon and it was cooked to perfection. I also had a side of steamed veggies which they serve with butter and some seasonings on the side so you can do what you want to do with it. Hubby was craving a steak and saw that they had a black Angus 10 ounce sirloin and so that is what he went with and he said it was absolutely fantastic. They have you cut into it to make sure it's perfect before they leave it with you. He also had an absolutely huge baked potato! I feel bad because we really couldn't eat all of this food, it's a lot! And for $57 this is a pretty darn good deal They do not serve alcohol, but you can get iced tea or sodas They have a person playing guitar and singing music, he was actually quite good! It's Saturday night and the place was busy but service was very friendly and efficient. I know this is well off the beaten path, but if you're in the area and you want a filling dinner, go for it. They are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and on Sunday it Looks like they have limited hours from 11:30 to 2:30p. There is a cash discount available but they do take Visa.

They are located near Spiro, Ok - sort of between Spirit and Sallisaw, Ok. I cannot say we have complaints, as the food was good and service was good, they had a great "set up" that included pickles, Josh puppies and Cole Slaw. We got baked potatoes and fried catfish, fried clams and fried scallops. We really enjoyed it.

My other half got brisket nachos, also amazing and we shared the potato salad, which was the best I've ever had! I can't wait to go back when we're in the area (we live in TX) and try the pickle pasta! Staff was very friendly and helpful and the place was small but had nice decor. So glad we stopped!

Disappointed - this is the 2nd time in a row we've had hair in our food…read more Not much more to say - we politely told them and paid for our meal last time and this time. We gave feedback both times too. We didn't ask for any discounts - we feel like we know these folks and we like them - but we don't like hairs in the food. Don't plan to return after 2x in a row. Too bad - as we liked the food.

Never disappointed here. It definitely is not the usual Sysco or US Foods fare…read more Last night the side dish was sweet potato casserole of which I could have made a dinner of it.

A sweet young girl, named Emma, recognized my sorrow, and gave me extra, special attention, and really helped get my mind off of my sorrow, talking about our pets. She will do well in her chosen profession. While I prefer a thicker cut rib steak, mine was very tasty, tender, and properly cooked. I have no complaint. Just a single wish for a thicker steak, that's easier to sear.

Tonight was our first visit to J&D's Steakhouse and we have plans for another visit soon. I ordered…read morethe Chicken fried steak with mixed vegetables, and fully loaded baked potato and it was pretty good. The only down side was the chicken fried steak was heavily seasoned and a little smaller than Im use to but other then that it was really good. My daughter ordered carne Asad fries which I had a few bites of and it was really good and full of flavor and not over spiced. The service was very good and kept making sure our drinks were filled. They were also very knowledgeable about how the food is prepared and this was a major plus due to a few food allergies in our party. The restaurant was very clean and we really like the little town feel to the ambiance. Only thing I would suggest is that they serve freshly made dinner rolls which I think would be an option everyone would love even if they charged a little more for the rolls. We are looking forward to trying other items on our next visit.
