LakeSide Cafe

We were visiting the lake for a quick trip and wanted somewhere to eat a late breakfast/​early lunch on our way out of town. This was perfect. Great classic breakfast fare but some unexpected more upscale options as well. Service was fast, extremely friendly (thanks to our server, Amy Lupardus!!), and personal. Prices were reasonable and we had a view of the water. We’ll be back for sure!

Had the crab and onion omelette with hash browns and an english muffin. Good sized portion, came out hot and delicious. Good coffee and pretty decent service. The view of the lake is the highlight of the place. Come when it’s warm and sunny and sit on the patio next to the water. You won’t regret it.

It took 35 min to get our food and it was cold! I would not recommend anyone to eat here! The staff was unfriendly and ignorant! DO
NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AT THIS ESTABLISHMENT!

The breakfast was very tasty and had great presentation. Prices were competitive for lakeside dining. I ordered an omelette that was loaded with meat, veggies and cheese and it was served with hash browns, some fruit garnish and sourdough toast with a fabulous raspberry compote. We were seated quickly and our order was taken reasonably soon but for not being crowded, the food did seem to take a bit long to arrive. It was well worth the wait. Since I have a boat, parking was available at the dock to the right of the gas pumps as you come in from the water and was very convenient.

Best breakfast and lunch right on the lake. Very friendly staff. Been here numerous times and we keep going back.

Food was fine but memorably bad service will prevent us from dining here again. Hostess and wait staff were all disinterested in providing any sort of dining experience. Had to ask for a coffee refill and server forgot to bring it back. She also forgot our toast then dropped it on the table and picked it up with her bare hands.

Great breakfast, everything was great, hard as hell to find. It is some place we will return to whenever we are at the lake.

Stayed here with the family over the weekend. We went to breakfast with about 8 people. Could not have asked for a better breakfast outside bye the lake. Hash browns were crispy, bacon was thick cut and probably cooked properly in the oven due to the evenness. Probably the most important part were the eggs, I had over easy and they were actually over easy which is easier said than done. My family had the omelettes and the eggs Benedict and they all gave 2 thumbs up as well. Just remember to go inside first to be seated. I am in the restaurant industry and breakfast is a sign of a good establishment. The waitress was super busy too but she still filled up our drinks multiple times and was on her game and friendly while being busy. So much so that she even got a little extra cash on the side. Never got her name (cute little blonde young woman:) but thanks again for making Sunday breakfast awesome!

This place lacks customer service! We seated ourselves and waited 20 minutes before we approached the waiter and asked if someone will be serving us today. Otherwise the servers would continue ignoring us. The servers are not enthusiastic or trained to provide good service or be efficient. We ordered the food and it only arrived 35 minutes later. The food was fine. The tables outside are usually occupied, and only those on the deck have nice view, the rest are next to the a/​c unit where you can «enjoy» the fumes…
Tip: This place is at the yacht club, so make sure to turn at the main entrance and follow the signs.

We went as a big group and pretty much got everything on the menu. I had the Destroyer and it was great. My wife had the crab omelet and it was great too. Everybody loved their food. The portions were quite big and the service was awesome. The place is a little hard to find but is very clean and has great view. Everyone wanted to go back the next day for lunch.

This is hands down one of the best restaurants in the Ozarks, the restaurant is very new, clean, and the service was great. I would suggest bringing the family and friends to grab breakfast or lunch!

The breakfast here is awesome! Your trip to ozarks will be incomplete if you dont get breakfast here. I had the craby omlette. It was the best thing of its kind I have ever had! Clean place with wonderful service. The restuarant location simply adds to the feel of having crab :)

I wish I could give them five stars but I can’t. The food here is always great. The Eggs Benedict is one of the best. The only thing that cost them the fifth star is the service. Always slow. We’ve been here lots of times and will go back again but I wish the servers were trained to at least say hello. You know We do see you even if you don’t make eye contact with us.

Ordered breakfast @ 10 it’s now time for lunch. Ahhhh kids are going crazy. Hope it’s good at least.

Found this place after reading an article about the owner In St. Louis magazine. They have good signs to lead you in from the road, turn just past the strip. I also have figured out its at the 1 mile by water and they have a gas dock to park at. Went about 8:30 Friday morning and there were just a couple tables when I got their but they were filling up by the time I left. Fair amount of nice out door seating and cute info diner style seating. The cook and waitress were super nice and friendly. I ordered the award winning hollandaise omelet! It was giant and delicious! The eggs were so fluffy and cooked just right and the combo of fresh petite asparagus and crab were just right ! The hollandaise was good, though just a standard good hollandaise it really topped it off Nicely. It came with a piece of your choice of toast or biscuit I had wheat toast and hash browns. The special thing about the toast or biscuit is the cook served it with one of her five home made jams or fruit compotes which she picks if you don’t specify which you would like. I by her choice got the cranberry apricot compote which I just loved! The cook told me the strawberry rhubarb is the biggest seller so next time I will ask for that. They also sell the jams in jars for I belie $ 5.95 so I got some to bring home ! What a nice place quick, friendly and delicious I will definitely be back! Oh ya on sat and Sunday she says they have a buffet and the regular menu. My only tiny complaint would be the coffee is nothing special, adequate but not unique, that I can certainly live with considering how much I enjoyed the food and staff.

Excellent Food & service!
The location was a little difficult to find, but worth the confusion! Mimosa and breakfast was excellent!

Amazing food!!! Do not follow your GPS you will not get there. Best omelette ever. Huge portion size great price.

Black and blue stuffed French toast is excellent.

ZERO STARS. Went on Fathers Day 2013 for first time. Was told there was 30 min wait. After almost an hour, watching other groups get seated that arrived later, I was told that another group got my table. I left and never will return. Horrible management.

Great breakfast, made to order with fantastic service. Beautiful view.
