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.

    Excellent old-fashioned from the bar with pleasant service. Lovely table and food was delicious. Friendly and efficient service, yet when speaking to the table, I wish the server had paused a moment before jumping in loudly. We were in conversation and a slight pause would have been polite!

    Dinner was fine, but a little hurried. Shuttle differences between JB Hooks and Baxter’s. Ambience more quiet and relaxed at JBs along with better service. Menus just sitting on the table instead of being presented with specials explained. No ground pepper offered for salad and only 2 Rolls in basket. Kind of skimpy. Scallops good but sauce had been better in the past. Nice salad and potato soup. Nothing special offered for New Years. Our picture was taken at the table with a chocolate treat one year at JBs. Lastly the menu in my opinion is a little strange in its variety. Think I prefer Bentleys and JB Hooks overall.

    EXCELLENT! Only a short wait. Seated by an outside window where we had requested. Scott was our server and was awesome. Drinks and food came in a timely manner and was delicious. Always a great experience at Baxter's!

    Salmon dinner was spectacular. Vegetarian menu was available and had several choices but less than spectacular At least there is a menu with a few choices. Appetizers won’t offer much more for non-meat choices at this restaurant. The view from our table was great, perhaps because I let them know it was our anniversary and they gave us an on-the-house, house-special dessert!

    We enjoy Baxter's and this year's New Year's offerings didn't disappoint. Lobster and bone-in filet were very well prepared.
