NLA cafe

NLA Cafe instantly took me back to that late-90s, home-cooked diner feeling that’s hard to find anymore. The kind of place where the food is simple, comforting, and made with care, not trying to be trendy, just done right. Everything tasted like it came straight off a family kitchen stove, and the atmosphere felt warm and familiar. Friendly service, hearty portions, and that old-school diner charm that makes you want to come back again. They also use Toast for payments, which made paying right from my phone quick and easy. If you’re craving real comfort food with a throwback feel and modern convenience, this place absolutely delivers.

This was my first time at NLA Cafe andnibwas there for breakfast. I ordered one scrambled egg, hash browns crispy and biscuit and gravy. They came out with the egg as boiled and I said that wasn't mine. It took quite a bit of time to get the order. It arrived and the scrambled egg was hot and good, the hash browns were just warm and the biscuit was actually cold. I just went with it. The prices are good but they added a $1.50 fee for crispy hash browns, I asked about it and she said that was an accident. So over all if it had been hot very good.

This photo speaks for itself. Best cornbread I've had in a hot minute!! Chili was so delicious as well. Perfect for a chilly November (pun intended)

NLA (Nixa Livestock Auction) Cafe is a little jewel just waiting for you to discover it. Friendly staff do a great job welcoming guests and delivering quick, kind service. Very clean restaurant with a few fun decorations and signs by the register. Can be busy at times, but that's how you know it's good cooking. Simple,tasty, home-style breakfasts of eggs, pancakes, meats, hashbrowns, biscuits & gravy, and the omelets are great, too. I think I've had about every breakfast item they serve, and it's always friendly, fast service and tasty meals served up hot. Come discover why the NLA Cafe is a Nixa treasure tucked just off the main drag. Closed Sundays and after lunch.

My team and I ordered to go from here for lunch today. We have tried this place several times and thought it was good. However, today we ordered 4 burgers all medium well. We ordered them medium well, because we have received burgers pretty done before. Well we get our food and the burgers are so burned we couldn’t even eat them. I had to cut off the bottom part of the patty to be able to eat any of it. We all ended up throwing away half our burgers due to it being so tough and burned. The fries were cold, flat, and not appetizing as well.
