Bones Lounge & Restaurant

I have been to Bones several times for lunch. Excellent, quick service with polite and interesting staff, food is a good value and always delicious.

They fooled me with Restaurant in the title. Perhaps I should have noticed that it followed Lounge, instead of coming first. Seems like a passable bar - but even though the menu is fairly large, good good doesn't seem to be the focus. Embarrassing happy hour spread (veggie tray and onion rings under a heat lamp) that I wasn't going to try. Gumbo soup of the day was okay. Side salad got a couple of bites and then set aside. It was just like something cheap you buy at an airport kiosk. Grilled tilapia was okay. Upcharge twice baked potato would have been better served as single baked.

Historic spot to have a drink in town, needs updated but keep the history. Outdoor patio doesn't offer much of a view, and the floor makes you feel drunk before a drink is had. Not always the friendliest of neighbors, but most people mind their own and you can enjoy a drink with friends with minimal interruption.

No. Just no. No nae never no more.Went here with guests in age from 25 to 80. All seemed okay.They took our last drink order and less than five minutes later the behemoth bouncer came through and ORDERED us to set down our drinks and leave. He was very nasty about it. Acted like we were unwelcome scum. Bartender, whom I thought I knew, generously let me stay long enough to, under duress, pay for my drinks. Nobody gave a damn. Just told me what a great guy the bouncer is and how hard he works. I worked at this place ages ago and loved it. Always recommended it to friends. This didn't mean squat to anyone, either. I can't print the rest of my thoughts.

You really can't beat this if you want to experience historic Jefferson City culture. The roof deck rocks and it really gets fun late on the weekend nights. The bar tenders are friendly and if you are there for food, it is some of the most classic bar food you can find. They have really gone far to continually improve and mix it up, and I just love that about them!

Do NOT eat here! I got the prime rib. I think it was weeks old and rancid. The twice baked potato tasted moldy and had a rubbery texture. I ordered off of Door Dash, they didn't have multiple items ordered. This food was some of the worst I have ever tasted or experienced!!

Great rooftop patio. Friendly staff. They make you feel welcome and service is good. One bar downstairs and one upstairs makes sure you can always get that drink. Which is why you're really there, right?

Amazing food, huge menu. Something for everyone. Staff is so friendly, and welcoming to everyone. Prices are affordable and the atmosphere is happy, warm, and fun.

Bones is a smoky bar with average bar food. There's lot of memorabilia on the walls. They do have a good happy hour which often features free food!

The service was amazing! Could not have asked for a better server. The food was mediocre. The price was good for what we ordered.
