Blacksheep.

Overpriced underwhelming burgers and milkshakes too messy to enjoy.

Hemingway’s. Mexican Villa. Black Sheep. That Lebanese Place is just fucking disgusting. El Charro is a joke unless you’re there for cheap margaritas. El Primos is so-so. Nakato is gross and just a shoddy show bar. Springfield Family Restaurant, if it’s still open. Bonus: Piccolo in Nixa unless you like a pound of sugar in your spaghetti sauce. Otherwise it’s alright.

Home Depot. I bought a bag of nuts there and they were totally inedible. And the whole time I was trying to eat the lady behind the counter kept yelling "Oh my god, what are you doing, you can't eat those!" And then I broke a tooth on top of it. Just terrible.

Perhaps I will. But my wife and I are Lebanese and North African, and I’m here to tell you that unless the dude fired himself and his wife, it’s a gross caricature of what Lebanese food should be. The only thing he had going for him, last I was there, was that we could speak to each other in Arabic.

Van Gogh’s. Don’t know how that place stays in business.

Their tofu scramble is great, but there are a few things on their menu that I hate. Specifically the mussels.

Honestly haven’t had any mussels in town I really loved. Would love some recommendations if anyone has any.

Hemingway’s, Mexican Villa, Scrambler’s Diner, Ziggie’s Cafe (not over-priced, just shit), and Springfield Brewing Company. That’s all I can think of right now.

It's not really overpriced, but considering portion and just overall quality, Triple Eights Chinese food. The ONLY benefit from this place is the drive-through, but don't let the awards fool you the quality has gone down so much recently. Go to the Riksha or New China on N. Kansas, those are great and have good portions for your buck.

Easily Tinga Tacos downtown. Like 10$ for 2 little tacos that aren't filled much and weren't great. Not sure how anyone justifies going there.

Nearly famous, it's all unseasoned microwaved garbage from sysco. I'm suprised they've been open this long

The Springfield Brew Company lost my business many years ago when the server took a salad for a togo box. I was able to view it spilling on the bar counter, the he picked it up with bare hands to fill the container. We told him to keep the salad for this reason. 😞

Missouri Mike's BBQ. The BBQ is fine, a bit dry but inoffensive, but it has to be the most expensive BBQ around. Then I gave them another shot and got the prime rib, which was one of the most mid things I've ever put in my mouth and significantly more expensive than Jimm's.

I got to go with my fiance for a company dinner and it was honestly depressing. It was obviously under construction/remodel and the whole restaurant smelled like chlorine on account of having seating/being next to the indoor pool. The calamari was chewy and the risotto was mushy, the salads were soggy. We were a table of 8 so not really even that many people. The best part of it was the pomegranate martini and even that was incredibly weak
