Hidden away, on Horseshoe Bend Parkway, on the way to the resorts in the Ozarks hills of Missouri, is a nice little restaurant named Savannah Grille. While this nice cottage-looking restaurant look quaint on the outside it is the exact opposite on the inside, with Chef Robert Sills using modern techniques to perfect traditional food and dishes. Chef Robert grew up in New York, then moved to South Carolina where he learned and gathered more culinary intelligence. Finally moving to Missouri, he decided to partner up with the local farmers and the Farmer's Market, in the Ozarks, to create deliciously fresh, seasonal and sustainable dishes, that help show off the great and wonderful foods that can be found nearby. Now, while not everything is found within a 10 mile radius or close to that, I think he said the eggs came from Tennessee, but everything did come from a farm and is fresh and doesn't use any GMO's or anything bad.
The restaurant is nice on the inside and has a wonderful view, from the side of a bluff, of the Lake of the Ozarks as well as some of the resorts. The menu is incredible, everything is organic and the place is very friendly and great for kids.
So, here is what we had ordered:
First we had ordered the House Charcutrie Board, which was a board filled with house-made pickles and sausages. It is huge and is well worth ordering for your party at your table while you wait for the main courses. We ordered enough on here for 3 people and this was a large board filled with food. Chef Robert told us that he had purchased a book on pickling and just started to play around with it, making almost anything into a pickle. There were sweet pickles and sour pickles and the sausages and meats were just as tasty. If you need a good board to calm your table down, get this. I'd give the board a 4 out of 5.
Now, the next thing we had ordered was for me. It isn't on the menu now, but that is because the menu changes daily, due to what is available and fresh. I ordered a house made sausage, with greens and mashed potatoes. Can you say "delicious"? The sausage was tender and juicy and the mashed potatoes were creamy, buttery and full of flavor. There was a bit of a micro green salad with a very rich and tasty gravy. This was the kind of dish that you could just sit there, relax, enjoy the view and eat. I'd give this one a 4 out of 5 as well.
While these helped make the meal enjoyable, these were given to us, just like bread and butter is given to guests at other restaurants. What is it, you may ask? What these are, are sweet cornbread muffins, with chunks of andouille sausage in them. With each bite you can taste the corn bread and a bite of spicy sausage or pork fat. These are so awesome and even better with some of the herbed compound butter. I'd give these things alone a 4 out of 5 stars.
Now, just when you think you can only get great dinner and lunch food here at the Savannah Grille, they also offer a brunch menu on Sunday. The delicious menu has all types of great things, including this omelet filled with meat.
I was one of 6 adults and we had two children with us and none of us, had any issues or problems with any of the food we had ordered. Usually BBQ is a must-have while we go to the Ozarks and now, we will have to stop in and check to see what else is new and fresh and delicious.
