Sidewinders

My family loves their food and their servers are really great! The only downfall is it can be pretty hot in there especially during the summer and the wait for food can be lengthy at times but the food is great!!

We were road tripping after the new year and visited an attraction in Noel and were recommended to stop here for lunch. I hadn't given it much thought or else there would be some better pictures of the resto itself.Small town but BIG hospitality fron the ladies running the place which was by no means small. My friend's car has a unique plate and always a conversation starter, one of the patrons who'd left came back in to remark about it and also asked about the two dogs waiting in the car. That's how the conversation with the ladies got started.Resto is clean and very spacious. The menu consists of typical American staples with a weekly special on the board. We were there on Thursday and they had chicken fried steak. I wish I had tried it now. My pork chops were filling, 2 decent size pieces, plenty of sides and toasts. My friend ordered a Chef's Salad and it came fully loaded on the plate. The ladies (owners are two sisters and their nephew if I remember correctly) said they believe in properly feeding their customers. Good food. Wonderful service. VERY reasonably priced.If you're ever in Noel, MO, or close by, be sure to stop here for some good food and some good midwestern/southern hospitality. It's always wonderful to support small local businesses :)

We love eating here, never had a dish I didn't like! Great salads, wraps, burgers and catfish! I always make sure I take a piece of chocolate pie home with me. We try to always eat here once or twice a week. Thankful for a great place near us.

Big juicy hamburgers, fresh hot fried catfish and very friendly service!!!!

Where chicken fried steak junk I had a side salad 81 or two bites out of junk my daughter had a hamburger it was like eating cardboard don't think it was good was outside water french fries will give it a one star will never go back

This place was recommended to us after checking out bluff dwellers cave. The burgers were bland and pork chops were over cooked. I would however recommend the fish. It was delicious. My sil had the blt and enjoyed it as well.

This is established in the old Cotton Eyed Joe's in Noel- which is the last time my husband and I ate at this establishment. Back then, the restaurant was hot, as the air conditioning was not working, and the food was greasy and wayyyyyyy expensive! Not to mention the place was dated, tables crowded so you could not get around without bumping into tables or people, and the place needed a deep cleaning.Sidewinder owners have updated and cleaned up the place. It's comfortable inside, easy to walk around (especially important if you have to use a cane), and the air is working fine (YAY!). The food was soooo good! We decided to give them "The Challenge" of a deep-fried meal. Yeah, I know. But everyone deserves a cheat day! We both had the butterfly shrimp dinner and shared a side of mushrooms. There were so many shrimp, we couldn't eat them all. The total given per plate was 8 on one and 9 on the other. These things were HUGE- two bites per shrimp! All fried food was crispy and not oily at all. Obviously, they keep their oil changed as the taste was so yummy. The total for both dinners and the side of mushrooms was $37 and change. The same meal would have run us around $50 when it was Cotton Eye's.Oh yeah, we will be back. Kuddos to the owners of Sidewinders!

Staff very friendly and food was hot and delicious. First time there and we will be back. The owner even brought us out chocolate chip cookies to top of our great meal.

Definitely not a fancy place but clean, friendly service, delicious home cooked food and reasonable prices. We ended up here by accident and are so glad we stopped. Southern hospitality at its finest. The country fried steak was just right. well seasoned gravy and delicious mashed potatoes. The patty was great too and I'm not sure how the "sidewinder " fries are made but they were delicious! Definitely recommend if you are near Noel, MO.
