Gabriel's - Sedalia

Impeccable service by Vera!! Can't brag enough about her! Each course was meticulously prepared with fresh ingredients and a beautiful presentation! Already planning our next visit! Thank you!!

The music keyboard/singer was too loud. Made it difficult to have dinner conversation. Too often, in a quality place (like Gabriel's) the performer fails to understand that he's not a ‘concert' performance. He should be soothing background music , to enjoy while dining and enjoying conversation. Everything else about our visit was exceptional, except this issue.

First time we've been there in 6 years. It's still quite expensive, but in the past it was worth it. This time not so much. Ordered a filet mignon cooked medium and it came out very rare. No problem, just sent it back to bring it up to the proper temperature. When it came back about 10 minutes later, it was still rare, just a bit more cooked, and the rest of the plate was cold. They did offer to cook something else, but by then the other meal we ordered was also cold and our special anniversary date was pretty much ruined. We very politely expressed that to the waiter, and their solution was to credit back the filet and take the other uneaten meal away, but still charge for it. Bottom line is we paid almost $150 for half a bottle of wine and two salads. They did comp us a dessert, so there was that. No manager came out, the waiter disengaged, and nobody seemed to care. Such a disappointment. After nearly 30 years of going there, I'm not sure we'll go back.

Quaint, beautifully restored house by the railroad tracks Fun seeing and hearing the occasional train go by! Perfect food and marvelous service! Best Fettuccine Alfredo that I have ever tasted! They really work hard to please the customer here!

The food was great! Vera was there for all of our needs so the service was spectacular. And it's one of the few restaurants where I can have a pleasant and peaceful conversation without trying to talk over everyone else.
