The Keeter Center at the College of the Ozarks

They have bread service. It is soft and chewy. Probably best bread I have ever eaten. I had club sandwich and again bread was homemade and delicious. GF carrot cake was delicious. I will be eating here again. If Celiac, I highly recommend.

We went here for lunch. The staff seemed knowledgeable and did confirm with the kitchen on any specific questions I had. They had gf rolls which was a nice touch. I had a burger and the gf bun was great! The do not have a dedicated fryer but had alternatives for sides that were safe to eat. I will be back!

I had the chicken salad sandwich on a GF bun, it was very good. The apple butter for my GF roll was delicious, as was the chocolate torte!!! This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants when I visit Branson.

I’ve been back for the brunch, it was delicious and everything was clearly marked if it was GF.

I went back for lunch today and had the salmon salad. They are so conscientious. It is nice to be able to eat out and not worry!

My boyfriend brought me to ozark college to propose in the Scripture garden. He got us reservations for the presidential suite for the weekend. The food was amazing all weekend. I had the Osso Bucco for dinner with potatoes, pear onions, and carrots. I even got GF dinner rolls with 3 different toppings( butter, strawberry butter, and apple butter) all were delicious. They had a gf chocolate cake but I was full from dinner. We had breakfast on our balcony both mornings and the food was very good. I did not get sick with anything I ate. The day of check out we got ice cream from the creamery. The gentlemen working went to the back, got me a scoop from the fresh ice cream, used a new clean scooper, and changed gloves. They wore gloves when they delivered and set up my food for dinner as well. I can’t say enough about the food and service.

We love coming to the Keeter Center at College of the Ozarks. No gf menu online, but plenty of the menu can be modified to be gf. The servers are very well trained. The homemade biscuits they bring out in the beginning are lovely, with homemade applebutter. Just so good. love the gf chocolate cake. Can't wait next time we're in Missouri to come here!

Oh how to start! The wait staff was so incredibly nice, and the service was amazing. My little brother has celiac and he loved every bit about the meal! They have special cakes and treats that are gluten free, there’s a gf menu, and while making your reservation, they make sure to ask about any allergens. We forgot our waitresses name, but all of them were incredibly nice, smiley, and friendly. My little brother got the grilled Parmesan chicken with mashed potatoes. Then, for desert, he got a scoop of strawberry ice cream and we got a slice of chocolate cake to share-all gluten free! So, thank you so much for our amazing food! Totally recommend.

We loved the restaurant ... and the students' involvement with raising, preparing and serving the food. Alas, I am both gluten and dairy free, so could not enjoy their gluten free rolls which have dairy ingredients. I did have a couple of options on the menu to choose from, and picked the nut encrusted salmon with asparagus, and they subbed roast potatoes for the risotto. It was excellent. I could also have had the nicoise salad. My dining companions enjoyed their meals as well. Don't miss wandering the campus and stopping in the little student stores.

If you are GF, YOU HAVE TO EAT HERE. I have been Celiac for 15 years, and was blown away by this restaurant. Amazing staff that was very knowledgeable. Specified I was GF on my reservation so they placed me with a waitress who was also GF. Such a unique experience in Branson with an amazing view and food. It was so good I came back again during my trip. So impressed with their options and experience.

My 17 year old kiddo said he would give them 7/10. While they take GF seriously they didn’t have a lot of options for him. He had a burger with GF bun. He said it was the typical bun. He had to have fresh fruit because the only other GF side was green beans. However, the GF ice cream at the Creamery was AMAZING!! Without being asked the person asked if cross contamination was an issue. We told him yes. He took his gloves off and went to the freezer for a fresh tub and made sure to change the scoop and new gloves. Sure a great experience!

Make sure you book reservations way in advance if you want to eat in the dining room. We were unable to get reservations. We did however visit the creamery which was phenomenal. Best chocolate ice cream I’ve ever had. Salted caramel was unbelievable too. They actually milk the cows make homemade ice cream daily there. No issues with gluten. They were well aware and used a fresh ice cream scoop. Would have loved to have tried the dining room.

I am not only gluten free but also dairy and soy free. The waitstaff worked with me and the chef to get a wonderful lunch of salmon, rice and roasted vegetables. Delicious. It was also an interesting campus to walk around. A lot of history.

Yummy!! They don’t have a gf menu, but were easily able to tell us what was safe. We didn’t have reservations (they were all booked when we tried) but we ordered to go and sat by the beautiful fireplace. The celiac’s in our family both had a cheeseburger with bacon and mashed potatoes. The Brussels were also SO good! They have lots of gf ice cream options and were happy to pull a new container of ice cream and use a clean scoop!

Ordered two burgers to go with GF buns and NO CHEESE, but both burgers had cheese - not just a cold slice you can easily pick off, but completely melted into and around the patty. Huge expense for something that could not be eaten due to their disregard for allergen accommodations.

Everything you can eat is labeled, the fruit shared a table with the muffins so to avoid cc we asked for fruit from the back and they obliged. This place is an experience....you need to experience if you're gf!!!! Get EXCITED for the desserts table!!!! :) absolutely delicious...everything!

Fantastic ! They had gluten free biscuits and chocolate cake ! I There was not a gf menu , but most things could be made with modification. They had pasta swap, gf buns, and I had chicken fried steak that had different breading ( cornmeal) mix. My husband had pork belly shrimp and grits. He said it was the best he ever had. I even got gf muffins at bakery for breakfast . The staff is all college students of the school working their way through college. Very beautiful building and great atmosphere . This will be a must when we come to town!

Absolutely fantastic. Explosions of tastes and smells. We had pulled pork sandwiches and soup. The gluten free bun was fantastic. We also had alumni deluxe double. Tasted so good. Took home piece of gluten free cake. I am severe celiac and they went above and beyond. Daniel was our waiter and he was very knowledgeable regarding celiac disease.

I am gluten intolerant and they were very accommodating. Once they knew I was gf they brought things that were gf without me even asking (gf bun, gf roll) and would let me know when they brought things to the table whether they were gf. I had the apple butter bbq chicken with a gluten free bun with green beans and then the chocolate torte. It was all delicious. I don’t know as far as cross contamination for Celiacs and their process for that, but they were very accommodating and friendly about helping me eat safely. Delicious.

Had an amazing brunch, we are gluten free and dairy free and everythink was well labeled. We have been traveling so being able to have lots of fruits and vegies was delightful. I can't speak to all their practices with cross contamination but although tje gluten free pasta was seperate and she used a fresh pan for the toppings, she reheated the pasta in water that I am pretty sure was the same as all the other pasta.

Awesome brunch! Everything is clearly marked GF, even have GF pasta at the pasta station. More GF desserts than you can handle, not just things like flourless cake and macaroons, but also cheesecake and regular cake. GF rolls a little disappointing, but otherwise wonderful!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This restaurant is amazing! It’s a farm to table restaurant run by students attending the College of the Ozarks. They have a separate gf menu. They were very knowledgeable about all the ingredients in their freshly prepared sauces and dressings. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The flourless chocolate torte is not to be missed! Easy access from the highway.

Very helpful staff, good food. GF bun and flourless torte.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I was in heaven! I haven’t eaten an Alfredo sauce in who know how long and they had an amazing Alfredo sauce and a GF cheesecake! I double checked that the pasta was GF and the waiter was very accommodating to my second guessing. One of my favorite restaurants in Branson.

Oooh my lanta. This place is the bomb.com! All of the staff are super friendly and our waitress was very knowledgeable. I ordered the bbq chicken sandwich-which ended up being the best GF chicken sandwich of my entire GF journey so far! The bun was amazing and she even brought me out a GF roll! They even have GF desserts (which I had no room for) and the apple butter they gave me with my roll was soooo yummy. I want to go back to Missouri just to eat there!

I was here for Sunday brunch which was fabulous! It is a huge buffet, with selections clearly labeled as gluten free, sugar free, etc. Everything I ate was fresh and delicious! The best part of the meal for me were the numerous, again, clearly marked, choices on the dessert portion of the buffet! There seemed to be more gluten free choices than non-gluten free! Everything was delightful from the atmosphere to the attentiveness of our delightful waitress, Miranda! I will come back for that brunch anytime I am back in Branson!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was very knowledgeable and everything is clearly marked. Several dessert options as well. The cherry cake is AMAZING! Enjoy a piece for me when you go.

Our experience was a big letdown. No manager or chef came by to clarify my needs or to advise on the menu. Instead they had the waiter go back and ask on a dish by dish basis which took about 40 minutes. In the end I was given an option of two salads and a few sandwich meats.

I did appreciate the gluten free roll brought out in the beginning. And super loved a gluten free meringue dessert as an option. But the meal, options presented, and the way the info was given was not so great. Hopefully we caught them on an off day. Great place w a purpose.

Celiac friendly?

No

they take cross contamination seriously, the only drawback is upon entering, scents from bread did start aggravating my asthma. Gf burgers were great! no fries, though.

This is by far the best restaurant offering gluten free that I've visited. All staff are trained well - hostess, wait staff, kitchen staff. As the best options were explained to me, I was also told the chef would try to alter any entree to meet my food restrictions. They also offer gf bread service. It was so good I panicked thinking they made a mistake. I recently bought tickets to their Honor America celebration which includes a BBQ buffet. I didn't plan to eat anything, but they called to tell me that the kitchen would preparing a gf dinner for me that would include bread, pastries, and a dessert! The buffet is elaborate, so I know how much effort it will take to do this for me. I can't say enough about Keeter Center. If you are in Branson area, please support them and enjoy a safe meal.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff listened and were very accommodating. Ordered a hamburger on a gluten free bun and a bowl of fresh fruit for the side dish. My 5 year old daughter LOVED it! I tasted her burger and it was one of the best burgers and gluten free buns I have ever tasted! My daughter usually doesn't eat very much food at dinner time, but she inhaled this meal. Definitely eating here again!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

What a wonderful experience. My diet is gluten free, dairy free and soy free. The chef modified a dish on the menu that I was interested in having for dinner, and met all three of my dietary challenges. The food tasted great (which is unusual when we eat out with the restrictions I require. I typically receive very bland and unappetizing food) and I had plenty to eat. Our server was very patient and accommodating to our family. We would return to this establishment and eat again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We've eaten gluten free here twice now, and both times I think we had a burger with their gluten free bun. It was delicious. They even had some gluten free muffins in their bakery case and they were wrapped in cellophane to avoid cross contamination. The top bun for my burger was not placed on the hamburger so I asked for some apple butter (one of their specialties) to eat it like a roll. I am so impressed that the students here are receiving some training in allergen free dining. It definitely bodes well for the future!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good salmon, but for the price they offered no side or baked potato. They serve a loaf if bread with homemade apple butter, so it would have been nice to offer a gluten free bread for the price.

Fabulous selection of gluten free menu items! Definitely worth a visit!
