My boyfriend and I were looking for a nice place to go for Valentine's day dinner and we stumbled upon The Ozark House. The ambience was very conflicting. The wait staff is dressed in nice black clothing, while the decorations are more centered around fishing and hunting. Many other things about the...
Just moved here from Chicago and I was disappointed in the selections of restaurants in the area. My husband chose the Ozark House to celebrate his 30th birthday. I'd never been there, but had heard about the famous barbecue. I ordered the special of the night, blue cheese crusted filet. Althoug...
When I come into town this is the first place I visit! I have lived all over and I crave the french onion soup, BBQ ribs (Chicken or pork loin), prime rib, and even the creamy garlic salad dressing.
I would suggest checking out this place, it beats all the chains in town and has a warm family fe...
I'm really puzzled by the reviews on this site for The Ozark House. While it is by no means perfect, I have been going there for over 10 years and can say it is truly a gem in the Bloomington-Peoria area.
The comments about the decor is true, it's a little outdated, but if you're talking about t...
We waited for a hour and a half for our food. The place needs to be updated with modern decor, instead of the 70's. The owners did not act very nice to the wait staff.
I was very dissapointed in the service and was awed at paying extra for already overpriced drinks. The waitress was not friendly, and i would suppose that is the reason they automaticcally add the tip to the bill. I, nor my family will ever go back there,even steak and shake has friendlier waitresse...
Service is EVERYTHING. I remember having lobster there once and they severely overcooked it. It was chewy. They said I could order any thing else from the menu EXCEPT lobster. I wanted the lobster..the right way. Then once I got a a carry out, took it home and had a bug in my salad. I drove a...
It was our daughters 30th birthday, there were 22 of us. We received the wrong appetizer because the waitress misunderstood us, we would have let it go, but she brought my husband the wrong meal, they didn't have what he wanted and she misunderstood him again, also his crablegs were cold, they offer...
We met 2 other couples for dinner on a Saturday Evening. The place was full. We had reservations, and there was no wait. My wife had the barbequed ribs(1/2 slab), which she liked very much. I had the barbeque, which could have been better. It was dry, and had little taste. No drinks, except coffee...
This was our first experience at the Ozark House and it was definately not a bad one. The service was fine (not sure why the other people are complaining about it, maybe just one bad server or a bad night), the food was good (I got the BBQ), and price was right. The only complaint I have was in th...
Great chicken, pork!! Very cold beer. Never had anything bad here, I love their crab stuffed mushrooms. More of a "lodge" type atmosphere.
We were celebrating our 4th Anniversary and my wife wanted to go to the Ozark House because of all the reviews she was hearing. She came to this site to see other reviews and it took 15 minutes after we were seated to get water and another 5 to place our order, there were only 5 other couples seate...
Went to Ozark House for dinner last night. We had reservations, but had to seat ourselves. A waitress showed up to give us water after 20 minutes and left us there for another 20 minutes. We finally got to order our food and was not told that choosing soup instead of salad would cost an extra dollar...
We've been going to the Ozark House for several years now. It consistently has exceptionally good food, service and it's a great value. In our opinion it is one of the best resturants in town.
My family had dinner at the Ozark House tonight. We were charged 20% gratuity on a party of 5, because we met other people there for a birthday party and the number reached over 18, but we had seperate checks! Someone had spilled a drink (and broke the glass) prior to us arriving - other patrons t...
GOOD VALUE FOR FOOD THAT IS BASIC AND GOOD.
