Jefferson Street Bistro: A locally owned bistro offering modern American cuisine and a comfortable atmosphere. Suitable for lunch or dinner.
Capitol Bar & Grill: Offers classic pub-style food with outdoor seating and is just a short walk from the Capitol building.

If you’re willing to explore other areas in Jefferson City:

Walnut Street Café: Cozy café with a mix of American and Italian-inspired dishes, including pasta, sandwiches, and salads.
Casper's Café: Well-known for brunch, breakfast, and hearty lunches with a homey feel. A local favorite.
