G & D Steakhouse

One of the parent in my son's hockey club suggested G&D Steakhouse which is along the way going to Kansas for the team's hockey tournament. We played early on a Sunday and so we had time to eat lunch on the way back.The place is just beside Texas Roadhouse, like you pass by TR first before going to G&D, and we love Texas Roadhouse, but still went on going here. And it didn't disappoint.. It's not the usual high end steakhouse but I love the ambiance coming in. You will need to order up front.. it's unusual but I love it.. no need to wait for an available waiter, and their menu is clearly shown on boards on top. It reminds me of the Sugarfire BBQ place (our favorite) in St. Louis.. This being a skeakhouse, it's a no brainer. My wife and I got the 14oz Ribeye and my son got the Sirloin. The steaks come standard with baked potato and house salad. The side salads are on trays, you grab one, then put on croutons and bacon bits, then choose a dressing.. there are 5 choices I think.. I got the thousand islands and it was great! There are several dessert available as well, we grabbed the baklava..You then choose your table and wait for your food. It came less than 10 minutes which is pretty amazing.. The steak was on the bland side, but I love the tenderness of medium cooked steak. They offer steak sauces and also the OPA Greek rubs that you can add to your steak for more taste. The baked potato is good as well. We enjoyed the food for the price. It's really an experience and would definitely come back if we are around the area.

Once again, Yelp reviews helped us to find this gem of a place in Columbia, MO! After a long day driving, we wanted to try something delicious and G&D did not disappoint!! We were tired enough to order to go, but it was terrific to see the place full with people all enjoying their dinner. You can tell it's a popular family friendly place when you walk in and order up front & there are so many different choices. We settled on a gyro, souvlaki & fried ravioli (I had heard it's a MO favorite). The gentleman at the counter was super nice and the whole staff was doing a great job taking care of everyone. As far as the food goes, it was just what we had hoped! Both the gyro & souvlaki were well seasoned as were the fries plus the tatziki was really good too. I enjoyed the fried ravioli & the meat sauce it came with tasted homemade too. We did say we were disappointed in two things- that we didn't order dessert & that we live so far away.

I've been eating here over 30 years! Always great food with great service and reasonable prices. Always a go-to when in the neighborhood.

This was a very interesting dinner. When you enter you pay for your meal before you sit down. Then you go through a make your own salad bar. After this you sit down and the server brings your food. The food overall is pretty bland but the steak still had a good medium rare cook as I asked for. If I go again I will not get the shrimp. Overall a decent meal definitely worth trying. It is a small restaurant though, my date and I shared the table with another random couple. We got our food within 12 minutes of ordering.

Tender steaks, friendly service, impossible to leave without a full belly- what's not to love? Opa!

Fantastic food and great service. The ambiance was charming and clean! The variety of the food and beverage was expectable. Definitely will return and recommend

Steaks are the bomb, I have been going to G&D for years, I wish they had one in Jefferson City again ! It was on Capitol Ave, in the 70s

Always the best. Great service, great food, old school vibes. Have been coming here since I was a baby and will continue to do so.

A car breakdown on the highway, led me here by accident.An initial cafeteria style beginning sets you towards a casual old school setting, followed up by excellent follow up table service. The meat and side comes out about the time you finish your salad. Made to perfection imo. And not gimmicky.The service is genuine, frequent and was very focused on making your dining experience a happy one. While I wait these next few days for my car to be repaired. I may just come back one more time.It's That GOOD and I was That IMPRESSED.A Gem to check out here in Columbia.

It was like a fast food steak house .The food was really good though. I had a steak and my wife had the fried shrimp both were really good. It's a good way to keep cost down and provide people with a quality meal at an affordable price.
