My burger was great, they also have salads which I also enjoyed. My server was friendly and very attentive.

Historic old business: 5/5 stars Service: 4/5 Buffet food: 3/5 Menu food: 3/5 We enjoyed the adventure, and the cobbler was great! But the buffet was picked over and the menu items we ordered were average (at best). We left disappointed. read more

We have been going to Ozark Cafe for three years since we discovered it. It used to be a wonderful place to eat. We were there last month. I have always gotten a loaded baked potato with my Chicken Fried Steak. This time when we got the bill....they charged $2.00 to put a few things on my potato. My partner got a Chicken Fried Steak as well. He has always gotten a little extra gravy on top of his fries. They charged him a $1.00 extra. It will be a long time before we go back. read more

This place is the real deal country cafe in the Ozark mountains. My bride and I were driving to see the leaves and made this our lunch spot and it was a Sunday buffet! Fried chicken, Salisbury steak and so much more. My wife and I were pleased with everything BUT the mashed potatoes. Honestly, it's frustrating that this country diner chose instant mashed potatoes with artificial butter flavor. Potatoes aren't expensive, and this was the single let down of the entire lunch. Service was good and friendly. And the old building is just amazing. We would go back in a day we might order from the menu. But those mashed potatoes aren't expensive a "oh heck no..." read more

Food was really good, large portions, and prices are reasonable. Service was great and all the girls are so nice. Ambiance was quiet. Definitely will stop by here again. read more

we came back to the cafe for breakfast and it did not disappoint. we got hasbrowns, pancakes, bacon, and the cinnamon roll. I'm not much of a breakfast person, but this was really good and I highly recommend. The ambience was good felt like an "old timey" cafe. And the service was really good as well both times I've came here. Last time I went to this cafe the food was okay, but I just don't think I got the right things, despite that, I still recommend coming to this cafe. Also from my last review, I got a green squishy and it popped but this time I got two new ones and they are good squishies! In conclusion, I recommend this cafe. read more

It's a cute place. The service was good, especially for a small town where sometimes it's hard to get employees. The food was good, but nothing to really write home about. The salad bar only had iceberg lettuce on it, but was relatively cheap. I had the Ultimate Grilled Cheese with 5 different cheeses in it. I do gotta say that their drink glasses are HUGE. The lemonade was delicious. read more

Yes, we had seen a video of the Ozark Cafe on a Codie and Kelly episode and could wait to take in the Buffalo River ambience in the Ozarks in Newton County. So this is the first place we ate when we came to town to look for our retirement home. Their black bean burgers and home fries are worth to trip! read more

Ozark Cafe - Loaded fruit cheese salad with blue cheese dressing - American Near Me - Jasper, Arkansas

We wondered into Jasper exploring because the Buffalo was too high to float. Ozark Cafe was the only restaurant we could find open for lunch on a Tuesday. Their menu said they have the best veggie burger around and it did not disappoint. Black bean burger perfectly seasoned with lettuce, pickles tomato and onion on the side. Comes with your choice of fries. I went with the fresh cut. Cute restaurant. Friendly staff. read more

It's cute and fun, and in a historical building. Loved the staff and the ambiance. Food is pretty basic and simply prepared- standard American fare. Their milkshakes aren't great, but their ice cream sodas are delicious. Burgers are okay as well. read more

Sucks that the service was horrible and the food was good. Overall place seemed cleaned and a cool lil spot with cool stuff to look at, but the service was horrible. Server didn't care to take their time with us, and just in a rush. Never introduced herself and would just slam stuff onto the table and walk away without saying anything. One time she slammed our food down and like 3 feet away she turns around and asked if we need extra plates. Just very unprofessional in the sense of wanting to take care of the customer. Food tasted good , but was a little bit on the pricey side for what you got. I did like that we got a cool banner sticker to keep, and to go drinks in styrofoam cups when leaving. Would recommend trying the other places around in the small town like the pizza place or the cafe up by the subway. read more

The service here was very good. Our server was thoughtful and knew how to take care of a big group. We went after the normal lunch rush, and it was still really busy. We had several people order burgers and some order the more traditional style southern platters. All the food was great! The burgers, especially, were very tasty, juicy, and fresh. The salad bar was clean and had a good selection. Those of us who ordered dessert also really liked ours. We had a couple shakes and a peach cobbler which were all great. It was a little pricey for the area, but I think everyone in our group would go back without a second thought! read more

Sitting in this quaint little town is one of the absolutely best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. I got the Buffalo chicken sandwich and it was delicious, flavorful, and an absolute generous portion. We also had the chili cheese burger and the beef was juicy, tender, and tasty. The chili alone made me want to drive right back into town for a second order! Haha The service and hospitality was super and our server made us feel more than welcomed! The ambiance was perfect. After a long day of chasing waterfalls, the dining room felt so cozy yet welcoming. My first time visiting such a tiny town and we can't wait to be back! read more

Ozark Cafe - Spicy chicken sandwich with curly fries. Generous portions even while I was rummaging for fries on the way back to our cabin haha ‍ - American Near Me - Jasper, Arkansas

Ozark Cafè is an institution in and of itself. It's not nearly a meal. It's a destination. A definite must if you're traveling highway 7. One of the oldest continuous restaurants in the state of Arkansas. Southern comfort food such as chicken fried steak and fried chicken . Always friendly service. Take a step back in time. Many black & white photos framed on the wall. read more

Ozark Cafe is not the best restaurant we ate at while we were in Jasper, but it certainly was pretty good. The vibes are fun, and I would say the food is above average. The waitress was not overly friendly, but also not rude. I was bummed that the biscuits and gravy were not what I was hoping for. The biscuits were slightly undercooked, and the gravy seemed like it came from a mix. But like I said, it was above average and there are a ton of options which is nice. read more

Great spot!! The nostalgia, the food, the service, ALL WONDERFUL!! we went in late Sunday evening with some friends to get some dinner while on a weekend getaway in the mountains, this little café, knocked our socks off!! There is something on the menu for everyone! If you're lucky enough to be in town on Sunday afternoon, they have a wonderful down home country buffet. But if what's your craving is a burger look no further. They have things you've never even heard of.!! Anna our waitress was an absolute doll!! read more

Always LARGE portions! Quick service, even with it being a Sunday morning. Very friendly staff and in such a unique, historical building.

Hamburger was so good. I saw the other reviews so had to try and boy were they right! I did see a chicken fried chicken on table behind and will try that next time. Heard from a local the shakes were great and I'd believe it. Well done. read more

We went there on a Wednesday morning at about 10:15am, technically still breakfast for 15 more minutes. The waitress told us it wasn't possible to order a bowl of chili bc it's on the lunch menu. When i questioned that she told me it was bc the had to do an entire kitchen turnover at 10:30 to start serving lunch. So i guess they make their chili in 15 minutes?? So we order breakfast. My omelette was average, but overly salty and although my husband ordered his eggs over easy they were actually well done and slightly burned on the edges. It took us almost 45 minutes for the food to come out, and we were told it was bc they were waiting for the hashbrowns to finish cooking. I suggested they bring out the rest, and were told they couldn't do this bc they "plate it all at once". Basically it is overpriced, poorly cooked, slow, average to mehhh food. I hate it, bc the place is really cute. read more

Whew they were super busy on a Monday lunch! Poor girls were running nonstop! Salad Bar had gumbo, which was actually really good for outside of south Louisiana. I had the Excaliburger, which is two grilled cheese sandwiches used as the bread for a burger. It was good, and you can request the meat less cooked than normal. Fries pork chop was good. Loved the peach and blackberry cobbler. Check out the pictures! read more

Ate here twice while in the area for a few days. Once for lunch when we first got to town and then for breakfast one morning. Both times were great. Service was friendly, quick and on top of everything. Burgers were hand made patties and large! When they say it's 1/2 lb IT IS. Breakfast was good as well. Pancakes are big which they say but they are also THICC! Great flavor! French toast was made to order, omelets didn't skimp on the fillings. Biscuits were light and fluffy. Will definitely go back. read more

Even here a few times, on this trip we came during peak season for tree colors and the place was packed at lunch time. Once we got a table we were quickly met by our server and started the process of ordering. I had the bacon cheeseburger and chips. The cheeseburger was excellent, seasoned well with great bacon. I also had the peach cobbler for dessert and it was very good, maybe a little dense but very good. We will always stop here while driving through. read more

We came here on a Sunday. We were greeted quickly and sat at a booth in the back. Our waitress is awesome and she's the only reason why I'm giving this place three stars. Otherwise, much lower. They had a full menu, which is quite extensive, however, it was a $14 buffet so we chose that. The ribs equaled the McRib. The Mac n cheese bland. The salad was good. Ranch dressing homemade and yummy. The corn, chicken, rolls, etc just ok. It is a buffet. And cheap.... the pot roast was my favorite! Quite tasty with great vegetables read more

The place itself is nice, and the service was good. However, the prices were so inflated. They were more than four times what they have on their menu on Google. I had a cheeseburger, fries, and no drink, and my total was $17.44 before a tip. That is crazy! read more

Ozark Cafe - Chicken Fried Steak - American Near Me - Jasper, Arkansas

We ate here twice during our stay in Jasper, and we got the cheeseburgers both times because they were the best we have ever had! The first night we were seated immediately, and our food came out pretty quickly. The second night we called it in and had to wait about 45 mins for our to go order but they were packed but my husband was offered free ice cream while waiting and was apologized to for the wait. The other places in town were closed so literally everyone was in there. We got our food, ended up stopping at a store for some things before going back to the cabin and seen the host run in after us and grab like 10 bags of chips, these guys were hustling. Also people were being so rude to the staff for having to wait for their food. Show some grace. Do yourself a favor and stop here They have awesome food. read more

Was going from Russellville, AR north. Was a good place to stop, relax, have some food. Should have gotten into the car and taken off, think every law enforcement officer was at the table next to me. The ambiance was much better than the food, had a breakfast. Will stop again when close, much better than a Branson tourist trap read more

Tried the southwest omelet, blueberry pancakes, bacon and hashbrowns. All so delicious. Will definitely be back to try the evening meal offerings! read more
