The Undercliff Grill

The Undercliff Grill is a casual restaurant and bar with a simple menu of comfort food, including chicken fried steak, wings, club sandwiches and house-made potato salad, along with a drinks menu. Reviewers mention the exposed rock wall that gives the dining room its character and the open patio, where live music is sometimes played.

The restaurant takes reservations through its website and hosts private parties, including birthdays, rehearsal dinners and corporate events, with menus that can be built around the group's favorites. It sits on Old Highway 71 in Joplin, and it is a popular stop for motorcyclists riding the river road nearby. Hours run Wednesday through Sunday, with later hours on weekends.
