This is a nice clean place with good pizza. They have a very nice aquarium with a sting Ray for an added bonus. So my wife had a garden salad with cucumber fetta dressing that she said was outstanding. She had a small Mediterranean pizza that she said was good. My son and I split the special which was a large 1 topping pizza for $10.00. I chose mushroom. The pizza was very good but we weren't blown away. It was a little bit dry toward the edges for me but the center pieces were very good. We ordered a side of marinara to dip the crust and edge pieces in. Overall it was a good experience. The waitress did a good job and was very attentive although she didn't seem all that happy. It didn't affect our service. It was a little chilly inside the restaurant. Bathroom was even colder but it was clean. Overall it was a good experience and we would go back if we visit or pass through Rolla again.

Most coffee shops struggled to make me a almond milk cappuccino in Missouri, then I stumbled across this amazing little coffee shop. FINALLY amazing coffee in this state!
Thank you for the great suggestion of "Slice of Pie" also, it was just as awesome as you said.

My husband and I stopped in for a sandwich. He got pork and I got Turkey. My Turkey meat was cut into CUBES. 1 inch Cubes like in a salad. Steamed or boiled or something and piled on a bun and falling out in the basket. They fell out of the bun when I tried to pick it up. I put BBQ sauce on but still not much flavor. His was pork cubes only the cubes had been mashed a little to resemble shredded pork. We will never return. They are probably ok for travelers passing through who stop and never go back...we are locals. The waitress was good.

I love just randomly stopping in for a dish of ice cream before heading to the park or after eating dinner. Sometimes the ice cream is a little grainy (ice crystals), but prices are excellent compared to other ice cream places in town. A great variety of flavors to choose from, too.

While visiting my daughter at Missouri S&T, we decided to to have some dinner before we left town. I asked one of my daughters volleyball teammates and the suggested Loc Casadores. So we went there to try it out. It was funny, before we left, we saw 5 other of her teammates eating there before we left.
Any way, we were greeted immediately when we walked thru the door with a very friendly host staff. They sat us right away and we were greeted quickly by our server. She was friendly and quite attentive for our entire meal. She took our drink orders and came back with them in a good pace. We ordered our food and it came out accurate and hot.
The pre-meal chips and salsa that came out with our drinks were very good. Plenty of staff around made sure that our chip basket did not go empty.
I like this place and enjoyed our time and our meal.

Fantastic, fresh and authentic Thai food in rural Missouri. I never would have thought I'd find such a great place. The sweet basil with vegetables was spicy and fresh. And dessert was a great surprise as well. Fresh coconut cream over rice. I'll be back whenever I'm in town.

At the recommendation of some family members, we stopped here for lunch recently. It's a few miles out of town, but a pretty drive. When first pulling in the restaurant doesn't look like much with it's tin siding but the inside was cute and the view to the back was gorgeous with a pond, wildflowers and butterflies.
All 4 of us were impressed with our meals. Portions were reasonably sized and not crazy massive like some places but the prices were extremely reasonable. Everything tasted freshly prepared. Service was friendly. We always think it's a nice touch when an owner checks on tables.
Will definitely be back!

Recommended to us by Hampton Inn manager.
My husband and I each had a nice juicy hamburger which filled us up without a lot of sides. Of course the meal includes a side, but we couldn’t finish everything since the hamburger was a very generous size. Staff was friendly and the decor was fun to keep us entertained while waiting for our food.
If we swing by here again, we’ll definitely stop at this restaurant.
