McFarlain's in the IMAX Entertainment Complex



How 'bout some fried green tomatoes? Or, fried sweet potatoes? Or, mouth-watering honey cornbread that could very easily be eaten as desert?

When it comes to eating in Branson, our family favorite is McFarlain's Family Restaurant located in the IMAX Theater Complex. Although McFarlain's doesn't have as wide a reputation as Lambert's Cafe in Ozark (home of throwed rolls), the quality of the food and the friendliness of staff definitely rivals its neighbor to the north on Hwy. 65. McFarlain's has good country cookin', always fresh, and served with a smile.

The menu has a variety of home cooked meals. I usually get the catfish or order Granny's Nachos as a meal (it's on the appetizers menu). The Johnny Reb is also a delicious choice for a thick burger with all the trimmings.

For a unique treat, make sure you order the double feature appetizer. It includes fried green tomatoes with ranch dip. In addition, the double feature includes fried sweet potatoes with a famous calypso sauce made with coconut, brown sugar, pineapple, corn syrup, ginger root, and a pinch of cayenne.

You won't be sorry you visited McFarlain's the next time you are in Branson, MO.
