Oliver's, Warrenton MO

This place has a great salad bar option and some great wings. We came one day for a surprise special. They had catfish nuggets and hush puppies. Great quality fish, the food was great as well as the service. We will definitely be back!

Worst meal ever. We were so disappointed. I took my boyfriend there for his birthday. They no longer have cheeseballs as listed online. The price on the Surf and Turf is also more expensive than listed on line. I don't mind paying good money for good food, but honestly I'm debating whether or not to even feed the leftovers to the dogs. That is how horrible it was. The fried mushrooms were good and that was it. Even the tea was cloudy. My boyfriend ordered loaded chicken. The peppers and onions weren't even al dente, they were raw. I guess the " cook" (clearly not a chef) couldn't be bothered to even melt the provolone. The fried potatoes were awful, according to my boyfriend. Now to my meal. Huge mistake. The Surf was a piece of over cooked cod served with nothing unless you request. The supposed Turf was supposed to be 12 Oz rib eye. It was fatty, full of gristle and about 1/8 of an inch thick like a Walmart breakfast steak. Pitiful. I posted for the salad bar which is an upcharge of 3.99. Salad bar was lacking in every way. Spring mix, iceberg lettuce, soggy tomato, regular salad veggies. I didn't try the pea salad, it just looked like a jar of Helmans someone dropped a pea in. Pitiful. The Mac and cheese, another upcharge which I am willing to pay when it's not just dry elbow macaroni with melted finely shredded cheese on top. Disgusting. Bottom line is that in total I paid $42 for a disgusting Surf and Turf and didn't even get a dinner roll. Our server appeared to be new to the place and I'm sure had she been there longer she would have not even brought that disaster out from the kitchen. It's hard to challenge a cook when you are new. It would have been nice to have a side plate with appetizers though. Pitiful. Well it was an expensive lesson. It cost me $100 to know we will never go back, we will tell anyone who will listen not to go there. Save your time and money.

I brought a group of 50 people here for lunch. I had per-arranged everything with a manager, so they had all the food ready when we arrived. Beyond the service being awesome, the food was absolutely amazing and I had zero complaints from my group. To be able to please a group of 50 is not an easy task to do!

Took my 4 year old grandson for GamGam Graysen date. He said Oliver's has the best spaghetti and meatballs. Though it's meat sauce now, he was right!

This is a quaint, charming, locals place! We were there on Saturday night 5pm. They had a "special" NY strip with baked potato and salad bar for $24. IT WAS DELICIOUS AND CAME PERFECTLY MEDIUM RARE. We also had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and wonderful chicken gravy. We concluded with a "Fred Flintstone" portion of "Turtle Cake"! WOWEE! Everything was so good. Service was excellent. Restaurant was spotless.

This is a really cute restaurant. I love the decor and the spacing of the tables. The food was okay. The fries were not fresh, so that was disappointing. The service was slow, but we weren't in a hurry, and I like to offer grace to restaurants because I know most are understaffed. I got the Hawaiian burger. It was delicious, except for the hair I found in it. My husband noticed none of the cooks were wearing head coverings. My husband got the catfish sandwich. It didn't come with anything on it. It was just bread and fish. He asked for tarter sauce for it. He said with lettuce and cheese it would've been much better. Oliver's is not a place I'll go out of my way to visit again, but I will go back if it's convenient.

Really freaking good food. Salad 5 Stars. Fish feast was $22 and worth it! Catfish, popcorn shrimp, butterfly shrimp, fried okra, corn and 2 sides.

Will never go back. No atmosphere to speak of, it was very loud inside. Our waitress wasn’t great, she never came back to ask how our food was and wasn’t great on bringing drink refills. The food was marginal at best. “Buttered corn” on the menu as a side was canned corn and no butter at all. The garlic mashed potatoes were barely garlic. My husband’s burger was not cooked as he ordered it and the fries were chewy and tasted old and stale. Nothing tasted freshly cooked. It just all tasted frozen and reheated. Very disappointing dinner.

Service was slow even though they weren’t busy. Food was very sub par. Will not waste my money there ever again. Tried a few times and this will be last

Sally was our waitress and was awesome. She was the only one taking care of the main level but kept all our drinks filled and hot food.

First time in Oliver's, food and service were excellent. The atmosphere was very nice as well. Definitely plan to return once I live in Warrenton.

Wow! How could everything take sooooo long. Don’t be deceived by the atmosphere, looks pretty but the service is absolutely the worst.

The restaurant was clean. The service was wonderful. The food was delicious. I highly recommend the fried chicken and salad. Prices were reasonable.

I really wanted to like this place. I had heard great things but never tried it. So I decided to take my husband on a date there. When we got there, we were seated immediately, however it took nearly 30 minutes for our order to be taken. They were not overly busy, only about half the tables were full and each waitress appeared to have 3 tables. 2 when we got there. I watched as others placed their order and got their food before we even had our order taken. I ordered fried pickles as an appetizer, the Philly with loaded fries, and my husband ordered a burger and fries. The fried pickles were a bit salty. I’m not a huge salt fan so for many they may like this. The food came out about 25 minutes after ordering. This is now a total of almost an hour to get our food. The burger my husband said was good. The fries remind me of steak and shake fries on chewier and cold. Very thin, over processed, and lacking much flavor. The Philly was dry and unenjoyable. Portion sizes were good. The atmosphere itself was pleasant. But the food and service were lacking. I watched as they cleaned the tables while I waited for my food and saw spots they missed while doing so from across the room. I would rate 2.5 out of 5. Google doesn’t allow half star ratings so I’m rounding generously to 3. I won’t be back to give it another try. But I’m glad to see a privately owned business in town doing well that it was even able to last through Covid.

The chicken was very very dry with a lot of grease. The burger was not tasty too.
Not a good experience.

The salad bar is well worth the extra! We had a huge piece of Cod and onion things. All absolutely delish! The restaurant is very clean, comfy, and cute! Sally served us and was very sweet! Thank you Oliver’s!

Great food, reasonably priced. Sometimes a little slow but that's just because they are busy. That is a good thing!

Oliver’s Restaurant is the quintessential American family restaurant. The dining space is very clean, the decor is very nice and homey, the atmosphere is calm and relaxing, the staff is very friendly and kind, and last but certainly not least, the food is incredible! This is how restaurants should be - fine dining at fair prices. We will be back soon!
