Outdoor dining in Columbia, Missouri adds an extra bit of pleasantness when we dine out. While we can usually snag an outdoor seat during the spring and fall, we probably won’t find a better time to eat outside than in the summer. Soak up the golden sunshine, breathe in the balmy breeze, and dig into a tasty meal at this charming restaurant in Missouri that’s worth a visit any time of the year.
Some restaurants just have it all - a knowledgeable, friendly staff; a laidback vibe, and a menu that's designed to delight the taste buds. Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar in Columbia has all of that and more.
If you're stopping by for a summer meal (or when the patio's open during the spring or fall), request a seat outdoors. Large umbrellas will help shield you from the sun as you kick back and relax.
While the welcoming atmosphere earns rave reviews, wait until you taste the food. Guests call the homemade biscuits brushed with butter some of the best they've ever had.
But that's just a tasty prelude to the delicious experience that awaits. How about starting with a classic appetizer like fried green tomatoes or wavy gravy fries?
If you just can't decide what to order, do yourself a favor and try the fried chicken. You'll savor every bite of this classic that comes with green beans, mashed potatoes, and one of those famous biscuits.
Don't forget to order from the generous selection of scrumptious sides. Mac & cheese, cheese grits, collard greens, and cornbread are among your choices.
