Flyover 212 Grn Mdws Rd STE 9, Columbia American • $$

“I ate here alone on a work trip this week and it was amazing! I sat at the bar and the bartender's service was outstanding. He was so welcoming and attentive and helped me make a decision without seeming the least bit annoyed with how many questions I asked. The vibe is casual but definitely nicer than sweats and hoodies. The food and cocktail menu was so different and fun and I wanted to try everything on it. But I went with a glass of Cabernet and the bolognese and they were both amazing. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu.”

Bamboo Terrace 26 S 9th St, Columbia Chinese • $$

“Food was very good. They put my food in a plastic container, put the container in a paper bag, then put the paper bag upside down inside a plastic bag. When I took the food out of the bag, because it was upside down, the container had opened. It was a gigantic sloppy mess. Had to dig most of the food out of the bottom of the paper bag, then use a massive amount of napkins to clean up all the sauce that had dripped all over me, my desk, and the floor. I think the egg roll was good but it was a soggy mess by the time I fished it out of the bag. I ate one bite and the other half of the egg roll was empty. Very frustrating lunch but like I said, it was tasty so I will go back and not get it to go. Or take my own containers and bag it myself.”

“I love Kampai! If I want sushi, this is where I want to go. The Brussels sprouts appetizer is really good— if you like Brussels check it out. I always enjoy getting whatever the special roll is on the chalkboard near the entrance, but the Coo Coos nest roll and the volcano roll are both good staple rolls from the menu.”

Our servers name was Jade and the service she provided us was excellent, she recommended the pasta special which was delicious. She was very efficient, it was busy, yet we never had an empty glass on our table. It makes me so happy to see that the brewery is still thriving, walking in the door brought back so many great memories, and anytime I’m in town, I will be back. Job well done!”

G & D Steakhouse 2001 W Worley St, Columbia Steak House • $

“G&D is a solid diner. What I would say about them is that they exceed expectation for the price, making them an excellent value in my book. I do the fried mushroom appetizer, a salad, burger and fries. They have a mean Philly cheesesteak as well. You will probably also crave their chicken strips again if you try them. The staff is friendly. I plan on giving their steak another try. I had a bite of my wife's steak and it wasn't bad, but I didn't regret not ordering it either. But I'd like to try one that is cooked medium rare before I give a real opinion.”

“These tacos were fantastic. They were also very expensive however. It took quite some time for us to get our tacos and margaritas, then the margaritas came out warm and very syrupy. I got the steak, carnitas, birria. They were each very good and topping them with the salsa bar items was a nice touch. The inside was very dingy and dark. I would suggest getting takeout. I would come here again for the tacos but the price, margaritas and atmosphere of the restaurant are holding this place back.”

Addison's 709 Cherry St, Columbia American • $

“Staff was very friendly, but our server wasn't very attentative. She wasn't bad, but seemed more concerned with getting her closing sidewalk done instead of taking care of customers. Ittooka while for us to be able to order, she never came back for a "2-bite check" I had to put my glass at the very edge of the table for her to notice I needed a refill, and she didn't pre-bus. But our food however, was delicious. The ribs were fall off the bone, had quite a bit more sauce on it than needed....but I could easily scrape it off. My friend had the sesame Tuna. The flavor was great, was barely on the dry side....but still very good. Unfortunately, they don't really have a dessert menu...just a brownie. But for dessert, I had the blackberry Margarita and the bar tender did an excellent job. A little strong (which I like) and the flavor was yummy.”

I came here with my family 2 1/2 weeks ago for my birthday lunch, because we were going to see my sister and brother-in-law and open Christmas presents at their place in Boonville.They don't have much food to offer. But their Bretzels were delectable, especially topped with a few different sweet and savory spreads! So were their Liège Waffles, my main course! As a special birthday bonus, our waitress offered me an extra Bretzel instead of an alcoholic drink. I do NOT drink alcohol, you see. So my extra Bretzel with some whipped cream made the perfect alternative.”

“What a lovely little place! This was our first sushi in Missouri. The server/host was an absolutely delightful person. He was kind and helpful and gave us plenty of space and time to decide.We were disappointed in the lack of options when it came to raw fish in the rolls. There were great nigiri and sashimi Options, but the rolls were mostly cooked fish or crab/shrimp based. What we ordered though - it was incredible. Hamachi sashimi, rainbow roll, unagi roll, and spider roll. The rainbow roll did have raw salmon and tuna on it, so that was the favorite! But all rolls were incredible!”

At the big green competitor across town you can always tell that the espresso is not changed properly and comes off dirty or ashy in taste. Everything about my beverage from The Grind on Forum was perfect. Your attention to detail and friendly employees have converted a new customer here. Thank you!”

Tacos 4 Life 511 Grn Mdws Rd, Columbia Tex-Mex • $

“We are in the parking lot right now, eating in our van. I wasn't all that hungry but my wife wanted to come here. She got chips with guac, salsa and queso. I figured I'd try their dessert. I can't remember the name of it. Because I'm an average white dude that can't figure out other languages. It's tortilla strips that are fried and covered in cinnamon and sugar and comes with a side of honey. We just finished our food and it was amazing. They gave her enough chips for five people and the huge sides of everything that came with it. Seriously amazing food. Polite staff. Food all came really fast and my favorite part of the whole dinner was the prices. It was half as much money as taco Bell would have cost us. Definitely try this place. We'll be back.Vegetarian options: They've got a whole lot of options.”

Main meal was the lamb chops which were tender and creamy mashed potatoes. My table ordered the lobster mac and cheese for us all to share. It was missing something in the flavoring, it was just very bland. I wanted to like it but it did not do it for me. Brussel sprouts were the veggie of the day.

“Best pizza in Columbia, best house made sausage anywhere, a tatziki that would make a resident of Greece happy.Tony's is a legend for locals, I now live in Europe and it's my first stop when I arrive back in the U.S. The pizza has a crisp crust, that has flavor without being oily. The pies are perfectly sauced and generously cheesed, it goes right to the edge of the pie. The superstar on the pizza is their house made sausage, it's heaven on a plate. After eating the sausage here, every other pizza joints sausage pies disappoint.On the Greek menu they serve gyros, and it's popular and great choice, but the Souvlaki is king for me. Tender grilled pork with a thick Greek yogurt based tatziki. No watery tatziki here.The same family has owned it for decades and they are good people. They have a rapport with most of their customers. The inside isn't fancy, but it is what a local pizza joint should look like. I can't wait for my next trip.”

“Food was very good. They put my food in a plastic container, put the container in a paper bag, then put the paper bag upside down inside a plastic bag. When I took the food out of the bag, because it was upside down, the container had opened. It was a gigantic sloppy mess. Had to dig most of the food out of the bottom of the paper bag, then use a massive amount of napkins to clean up all the sauce that had dripped all over me, my desk, and the floor. I think the egg roll was good but it was a soggy mess by the time I fished it out of the bag. I ate one bite and the other half of the egg roll was empty. Very frustrating lunch but like I said, it was tasty so I will go back and not get it to go. Or take my own containers and bag it myself.”

“I have visited this restaurant many times since it opened. The food is absolutely delicious. Generally, I am also impressed with the service. Usually extremely courteous. Unfortunately, that was not the case this evening. Quite disappointing, as we drove quite far to dine here tonight. We arrived at 5:10 pm, and we're immediately greeted by a dark haired young lady who was clearly irritated that customers were even present. She didn't ask us where we would like to sit, or say welcome, she instead said, "You know we close at 6?". Wow. How disappointing. Sorry to inconvenience you. We did get seated but during the whole meal the server was in a rush, was irritated, was curt and it was obvious he wanted to go home and that we weren't welcome. Food was great. But during the entire experience the young lady and young man, who we learned were siblings, still teens, didn't quite understand how to treat customers. It was obvious that they just wanted to go home. The young man again reminded me that they close at 6. He also yelled at me across the restaurant about whether my check was ready. I am sad for the owner who has worked so hard to build such a great business, that he unfortunately trusts these two young people to take care of his customers, but they don't understand how to do that well. Again, the food was great, but the two siblings working this evening were incredibly disappointing. We will be back but hope that the two teens get better at welcoming customers and learning about hospitality. Great food, as always.”
