My friends & I walked in & no one said, hi. The hostess asked how many & for a name. We advised her & she said wait over there & pointed to the bar. We ordered drinks & the bartender was not friendly. I ordered a Tito's & water & received a Tito's & water with a squeezed lime in it. I asked for a new drink as I didn't order a lime & she was angry & threw the drink into the sink & made a new one. She didn't even apologize or say oops or okay. The hostess hollered for us as our table was ready. Our waiter was attentive & friendly. The food was delicious! The homemade creamy Italian dressing is delicious as well.

The food at this restaurant was absolutely amazing. I had the Veal Parmigiana over a bed of spaghetti and I got meat sauce instead of marinara sauce and it was awesome. Since I don’t eat salad I got the soup of the day which was clam chowder. Everything was perfect including the service. I would highly recommend this restaurant anybody visiting Osage Beach.

Flavor explosive on every bite. Chicken Daniel was a great as Tony the waiter claimed it to be. As a matter of fact everything he suggested was amazing. I want to go back to the Ozarks just to eat here.

Had a fantastic dinner with friends. The service was solid and the Italian cuisine ???????? was fantastic. (I wish my Italian buddy would have been along to enjoy the tastes and smells of their homeland). We tried the veal, manicotti and the chicken parmigiana. I would give each of those meals ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. We got there close to closing time and were a little concerned the meal would be a little rushed. We had no issues and staff let us enjoy our food with no issues! Will be back.

Went there for the all you can eat prime rib. I though I was the first cut of the evening since we were the first to be served. Turns out the prime rib was not even prime rib. No way. More like a big thick 30+oz slab of round. Tough and chewy. I do not recommend it especially for $45. I imagine that if you ordered the 12 or 16oz alone it would be prime rib.

Atmosphere, staff was impeccable.

Wife had seafood pasta and she liked it.

Salads were great.

If you go there for the all you can eat prime rib, demand that it is prime rib, not some hunk of chewy meat.

When I order and expect prime rib, don’t bring me a “steak” that you call prime rib. Prime rib, medium rare, is reddish-pink, not grilled with grate marks and char.

Thoroughly disappointed. If I’d know that prime rib wasn’t prime rib, I would have saved $10 and ordered the same steak that came.

It wasn’t a mistake. The other 2 people I was with also ordered prime rib and received the same as I.

Makes me wonder if they’d know the difference between salad and sushi!

Perhaps the pasta would have been better…

I took my wife her Saturday for her Birthday.

We arrived before 5 pm and went through the door at 5:01. There was at least 10 cars that had pulled up while we were waiting. We were immediately greeted and seated. Kevin was our waiter, he was professional and very attentive. He recommended several things that we enjoyed. Weenjoyed our meals and we're very satisfied. I had the fillet and shrimp, while my wife had the lobster tail. The meal came out at a proper pace for us to enjoy, while not waiting long for the next course. The atmosphere was very nice and romantic. We had a very enjoyable evening.

This place is a hidden gem. Doesn’t look amazing from the outside, but the inside is authentic and food is amazing. Service is great as well. I had the chicken piccata, house salad and artichoke hearts for app. Each dish was 9/10.

Atmosphere tells this place has been around for a while, but for good reason.
