Nixa Livestock Cafe

This place was hard to find, but it was worth the hunt! Turn onto W. Tracker Rd. and into the Elite Storage Centers parking lot to get here. The cornbread is soft and moist, the roast beef has the perfect texture and flavor, the slaw had the right balance of sweet and tart, and the fries were done just right. My man chose the chicken fried steak meal with mashed potatoes and brown beans. He ordered white gravy with his chickenfried steak and it had sausage in it, which he wasn't a fan of (he loves each, but not the combination), and his mashed potatoes were a bit dry, but overall he enjoyed it better than Lambert's, which is high praise from him. I had the blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream for dessert. Mmmmm. Great flavor and perfect texture. The waitress was perfect - super friendly, attentive, and knows her job really well. The only reasons I considered not giving it 5 stars were the gravy and mashed potatoes. But it was fabulous, and the place was packed with happy customers. Highly recommended!

The prices are low, but you get what you pay for. The place was packed and we had to share a table. Awkward! The service took forever and when we got out food, it was cold and my pancake was very burnt, yet that's how they served it! The waitress never stopped to consider they were serving a burnt pancake as if it was normal. It was just as terrible as it looked. A few bites in and I had enough. The food is cheap, but low quality and nothing special. We'd never go back.

A cozy step back in time. Everyone was friendly and the staff took great care of us Food was plentiful and did not disappoint. Coffee topped off on the regular. Our son had pancakes bigger than his head. My 2 eggs over med w/ hash and sourdough toast was perfect and the Mr. had chicken fried steak and biscuits and gravy so he doesn't need to eat again for a day or two! Asked for hot sauce and our neighbor patron handed us some and the waitress thanked him by name.
