Spectators - Jefferson City

I went to this facility for the first time on 17th January 2020. my main reason was to play her bar bingo, which is by the way free to play. it is called extreme bingo. they have the chance to win a 52 inch tw or $100 gift card. they even had a game they could win $3000. all free. So I had a couple of eating from there kitchen for which I would give 5 stars. the personal gets 5 stars plus. very friendly and always a step ahead of what I wanted. very friendly. many seats. very wonderful experience. now I have a regular Thursday activity. nothing but good things to say. very nice place and personal.

We were going to a concert in Jefferson City and wanted to eat beforehand. We looked at places, menus, etc and decided on Spectators as we like the bar/grill atmosphere. First off, their menu on their website has not been updated and was totally different than what we saw on-line. That was a bit disappointing as I had decided ahead of time, based on their on-line menu, that I wanted nachos. No nachos on their menu. So .... my husband and I decided to split a homemade breaded tenderloin. The menu eluded that it was big and the waitress said it was shareable. It was not big ... a little bit bigger than the size of the bun. It was good but not as described on the menu. The fries were good. One of our friends had the pizza and liked it. Another had a burger and he said it was nothing special.

The bartender with whitish blonde hair at the upstairs bar stayed on the floor waiting on people more so than behind the bar. We sat at bar and had to always get her attention for service. She's wasn't the friendliest. When we went downstairs, the bartenders were friendlier and we enjoyed playing the pinball machine. They have darts and pool as well downstairs, definitely a better experience there.

Ordered pork tenderloin sandwich. Bun was bigger than the peice of meat I got. Meat was about an inch thick not tender no breading but deep fried. Fries we salty but the most decent part of the meal. Will not eat there again. Shame being the first time trying them.

Worst customer service experience I've ever had at a bar. I've lived at Lake of the Ozarks for 15 years and been to hundreds of bars, tipped extra and did not even get close to bumping into another person. This is a horrible bar that will never make the money it could. We were kicked out for no reason and I'm typing this right after we were declined entry for no reason. Will NEVER come back. Go to any bar at Lake of the Ozarks over this one.
