About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
An authentic American restaurant with a great bar - that's the idea behind Baxter's. We're perfect for just about any dining occasion or gathering that calls for great food, warm, personal service and an inviting, casual atmosphere. Our classic American restaurant builds on the rich history and tradition the Lake Area is known for. We use only the finest, freshest ingredients, coupled with personal service and warm, inviting surroundings. We're happy to bring this dining experience to the Lake of the Ozarks. Baxter's is the perfect place for a business or casual lunch, a special evening out, a family get together after a long day on the Lake, or 'just because.' We can accommodate most any group from an intimate dinner for two to a business or family party in our private dining room. And don't forget our classic American bar, one of the Lake's great places to meet friends and family.

    We were seated at a great table with a lake view. Server was very attentive and fun. We had the Halibut with risotto. Terrific in every way…great flavors and fish was cooked to perfection.

    we have eaten here on a regular basis for years. food has always been awesome but not this last time. bar was good. salad was good. rice and asparagus was good. i ordered the 14 oz rib eye. it was terrible. i have had better steaks at golden corral and they didn't cost 35 dollars. will not order that again.
