    You get a great bang for your buck here! They have all you can eat deals and unlimited salad and soup bar. The fried chicken and shrimp is AMAZING. Our service was a little slow at times but she was very friendly and working a few other tables. Everything else was just ok. I do want to come back for the all you can eat crab legs.

    Kretzer's is about an hour away from STL. The restaurant is in a small town that doesn't seem to have much else. The drive is absolutely worth it for all you can eat crab legs! They have daily specials and you can find them on their Facebook page. Today we had a wonderful server named Shannon. She was on top of checking on us and keeping our drinks full. She also brought us more hot butter The legs are all you can eat for $54.95 and you get two sides the salad bar can be one of those sides as well. As we were leaving I noticed they had several frozen drink machines and the flavors looked so good! Dreamsicle Daquiri- yum! I really wished I had seen them when we got there. Another time!

    Great salad bar! A lot of food for the money. Always busy. Crab legs are what they are known for but everything is good with large portions.

    This place is awesome! Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, good service, and the food was amazing! Highly recommend the catfish nuggets and a trip to the salad bar!

    Food was hot and fresh. Did not have the king crab when we came but everyone enjoyed the regular crab. Service was helpful with my large group. A veryyyyyy casual restaurant.

    Went on a Wednesday for "cheap" crab legs. Still $45 but worth the money. All you can eat crab legs. Kinda insane. Forgot to picture mine but my husband liked the Mac n cheese and potato. I enjoyed the green beans and my son liked the fries! The service was amazing! It was super busy but girl knew what she was doing and did it well. I expected a much longer wait for drinks and food but didn't have to. She rocked it. I got her name but can't remember it Ambiance is a country restaurant. It's loud in there but not so loud you can't talk amongst yourselves. Bar seemed like a cute date area. Definitely busy but worth whatever wait you have to get

    Six of us went for all you can eat crab legs today and had a wonderful time. You get two sides and the salad bar was a side you could choose. The salad bar offered a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as potato salad, pea salad, broccoli salad, and couple of different pasta salads. Broccoli salad was my favorite. I chose onion rings as my second side and the others chose Mac and cheese and potato casserole. My onion rings were fantastic and the others raved over theirs. I was amazed when the server brought our first trays of crab legs. They started us off with 6 clusters each. I finished mine and had 2 more. This was more than I've had, but the others had 10, 12, 15, and I think 16 was the most in our party. There was a table of 3 guys who were cracking crab legs when we first sat down and were still there when we finished, so I know we didn't break any records. Needless to say, these crab legs were wonderful. Perfectly salty almost sweet with butter or garlic butter or Cajun butter. It was incredible. It was so good we had the server going back and forth several times taking away shell buckets bringing more fresh steamed crab legs. He was very friendly and attentive. At the end of our meal, we had a birthday celebration and several tables of people joined in and one of the tables shared they were also celebrating a birthday. The restaurant was comfortable, spacious, and full of warm neighborly feels.

    I've been staying in the area to do some deer hunting and have eaten every lunch and dinner here for 5 days now. Absolutely amazing, everything for 5 days. Best salad and soup bar I've ever had. Hamburger Steak Plate WOW, Catfish Nuggets, enough for two, Philly Cheese Steak one day Chicken Cheese Steak the next, Fried Chicken, Ribeye Steak w Baked Potato. Today for lunch in the cold rain, "Lasagna Soup", yep delicious! All you can eat crab legs daily-that's for dinner tonight. More to come over the next few days. The Kretzer's Ownership and Staff are the best in the world. Go try it out, you wine regret it! Back tonight for all you can eat Crab Legs, Most Delicious!

    Tried Kretzer's for the first time today. It was quite good. The dining room is very large (over 25 tables), well light, clean and decorated in a rustic style. Lots of room for large groups. Our server was extremely attentive and checked in on us milt times. I had fried chicken, baked potato and baked beans. My wife had catfish nuggets, baked potato and salad bar. All were very good. Portions are huge. I think we will each get 3 meals out of each dish. The chicken and catfish were not greasy at all. I think there used to be a little bit of heat worked into the batter. It's a place that I would definitely return to, even if it is very out of the way.

    Place is ran poorly and quality has suffered unfortunately. Bad service, poor value and even rudeness to costumers over legit complaints.

    Honestly, the food's taste nearly matches that of Wingstop; however, overall, it is quite…read moreexcellent. I highly recommend trying the buffalo ranch wings, which I would rate 8 out of 10.

    I've been wanting to try this place, because I am indeed a wing snob. Traditional bone-in only…read more(IYKYK) the other is just glorified chicken strips with sauce. I ordered online and picked up my order to-go. The good news is the wings were ready quickly and also super crispy which is always pleasant and what you want out of a wing. The slightly bad news is the wings are *very* lightly sauced. There was an option to pay an extra 0.50 for extra sauce, but I decided to see what their baseline was since it was my first time ordering. In the future, if you like a sauced wing at all, I would pay the extra. I got the buffalo (one flame symbol) and the Nashville Hot (three flame symbols) which I felt was accurate. The buffalo was not really hot at all, just the buffalo-flavored sauce and the Nashville Hot was warm enough to leave your lips a little tingly, but not so hot that you couldn't enjoy the flavor. My interaction with the staff was brief but pleasant. I would love to come back and try their loaded fries which look delicious, but didn't trust I could get them home before they got cold and soggy. So next time I'm there for dine-in, I'll give those a try. If you're a wing snob, it's worth a visit!
