Nestled in East Prairie, Taster’s Restaurant at 720 N Martin St offers a menu that strikes the perfect balance between comforting classics and bold, flavorful surprises. The star attraction here is their hand-cut ribeye steak, grilled to perfection with a smoky char that enhances its rich, juicy texture. It pairs beautifully with their loaded baked potato, generously topped with cheese, bacon, and sour cream.
Seafood lovers will appreciate the fried catfish platter, a crispy, golden delight served with house-made tartar sauce and a side of seasoned fries. If you’re in the mood for something lighter, the grilled chicken salad is a standout, featuring tender, marinated chicken atop a bed of fresh greens, drizzled with a tangy dressing.
For those craving comfort food, the homemade meatloaf is a must-try. Served with creamy mashed potatoes and rich brown gravy, it embodies Southern home-cooked goodness. The country-fried steak is another favorite, boasting a crispy, golden crust and smothered in a creamy, peppered gravy that adds an irresistible depth of flavor.
Burger enthusiasts won’t be disappointed either. The Taster’s Signature Burger is stacked high with a thick, juicy patty, melted cheese, crispy bacon, and fresh toppings, all tucked between a toasted bun. It pairs perfectly with their hand-cut fries or a side of onion rings, fried to a crispy perfection.
Breakfast lovers will find satisfaction in the fluffy buttermilk pancakes, served warm with maple syrup, or the hearty country breakfast platter, loaded with eggs, sausage, crispy hash browns, and buttery toast.
No meal is complete without a slice of their homemade pie, with options like rich chocolate cream and classic apple crumble that round out the meal with a sweet, comforting finish.
