Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar

Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar is an absolute gem. The food is outstanding and the atmosphere is warm, relaxed, and welcoming—the kind of place that makes you want to slow down and enjoy breakfast properly. The “What a Country Breakfast” is phenomenal, and the Gouda grits are hands-down the best I’ve ever had—rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Their buttermilk waffles are just as impressive: light, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Pair all of that with their fresh-ground coffee, and you’ve got a near-perfect breakfast experience. If you’re in Columbia and appreciate great flavor, quality ingredients, and a cozy vibe, this place is a must-visit. I’ll absolutely be back.

Enjoyable experience at Ozark Mountain Biscuit Co. This place has a very well and thought out menu, everything from the food to the beverages is artistic. The service is always great no matter how busy it is and there is a nice patio for when the weather is right. The decor inside the restaurant is very inviting and the menu has lots of options where no matter your taste pallet, everyone will be able to find multiple options they like. Columbia is lucky to have this restaurant.

It was okay. Had buttermilk biscuits and sausage (can have a mushroom veg gravy option) gravy $9 with 2 eggs over-medium +$5. The eggs were quite runny yolk as in over easy but good. The first of 3 biscuits halves was hard, not fork cuttable - required a knife. The other two were soft. Light flavor to both gravy and biscuits - okay. I made the mistake of grinding table pepper on it that overpowered the light flavors completely. It was super pungent and a little floral that overpowered the dish. Skip the pepper. Their Louisiana hot sauce was the bomb and they had a house-made Serrano vinegar sauce that was also intriguing, flavorful and light. I added both to the whole plate and the Louisiana really keyed up the dish well. Had a draft winter Munich dunkel. Good color nice warm Carmel flavor

The best part was the biscuits. Food was decent. Pretty busy. Waitress was not as attentive as much as I like but wasn't unfriendly. Would go again to get dinner after 4

Tried out this place on a recent visit to Columbia for a late Saturday afternoon lunch and it was a pleasant experience. We skipped the 40-minute wait for a table to eat at the bar which was completely empty when we arrived. The bartenders were engaging, excellent selections and enjoyed an IPA beer and a sangria. For lunch: the Cajun Fried Shrimp was a tasty, flavorful choice and the side of collard greens was respectable, especially if you prefer them with a more vinegary aura. The Farmers Market Scramble was also a solid option, tasted fine. The overall vibe seemed chill... it's an open, airy atmosphere, the bar area is a great spot to gather, catch a Mizzou game and enjoy yourself!
