Oscar's Classic Diner - Jefferson City

A hidden gem we found by accident today. Definitely going back. Food was awesome. Something for everyone! We had the jumbo pork tenderloin dinner. Served quick with friendly service. Thanks for the yummy dinner rolls! Love the atmosphere. Enjoyed checking out the old TV movie pics celebs on the walls! Music was nice not too loud. Enjoyed ourselves. They feed you well for the cost. You wont be disappointed! Some dishes are named after celebs!

We 've eaten at Oscar 's a fair number of times, now, and each time has been a wonderful experience. We 've also come in for takeout, but haven 't used the drive thru, because we like to come in and interact with the crew, and see some of the memorabilia in the restaurant lobby. The crew shows they care, they are definitely service based, and seem to enjoy what they are doing as a team, as the service as well as the food, has always been great. They are frequently packed during mealtimes, which shows in cars in their lots, on the street, sometimes overflowing into nearby businesses. They are a legitimate local experience, and well worth patronizing. They show care and loyalty to their staff, posting birthdays and personal kudos to them on Facebook, also closing during bad weather like heavy snow so as not to endanger them, they announce these because they are also protecting customers. This morning the place was rockin ', and service was excellent. The Hoss ' Hungry Man plate will fill you up well, and did this morning, as I came off a round trip to the St. Louis area and back. First time I 've had their biscuits and gravy, and those were worth the visit by themselves. Their Pork Tenderloin plates are also delicious, as is everything else I 've eaten there.
