The 518 Provisions — Restaurant in Sedalia

Walking down historic Ohio street in the vastly underrated city of Sedalia. It’s chilly in January, but it’s your 4th wedding anniversary and the gift of that year is plants. You head to the flower shop and before you get to the door you see people sitting, laughing drinking the most delicious looking coffee martinis. You’ve never heard of this place and aren’t sure what to expect walking in. You’ve never heard open the door and the warmth of this hidden gem hits you. Not just the temperature change, but the warm greeting you get as you walk in. It’s been a while since you’ve been greeted with a genuine smile. The man behind the counter making martinis introduces himself, his name is Rod. You wonder if maybe he has thought of moonlighting as a teacher of what customer service should be.

You sit and wait for your food, and he tells you about their rolled ice cream and their wonderful menu. You thank him, and can’t wait to get home to tell your kids there’s an ice cream spot we must try!

I highly suggest you check this small locally owned restaurant and out, and I urge you to tell your friends and family about it, after all there are very few places that have breakfast burritos. We need to promote and support our local businesses if we want any hope of keeping the charm we have come to know here. I hope nothing but the best for this business, and look forward to seeing what other local shops this town...

Good food but comically small portions. We popped in here for lunch after our Katy trail ride. The menu looked promising and the food tasted good however the portions were tiny. Like teeny tiny, and I am not normally looking for portion size to be large but for $15 half sandwich and salad I expect to not be still hungry when I leave. The chicken salad sandwich my husband ordered was made on a tiny crescent roll the size of a Pillsbury crescent roll with a spoonful of chicken salad, 2-3 bites. They were tasty bites, but not enough of bites. His Caesar salad was maybe 1 cup of loosely packed greens. The grilled blackberry brie and Greek salad was admittedly more substantial but I still left hungry and had to find another restaurant to have a full lunch less than an hour after leaving. Super disappointing experience when there are so few good food...

We love this warm and inviting spot snuggled in by the flower shop. The cocktails are amazing and exquisite. The staff are suave sophisticated yet welcoming and wonderful. Cuisine is tasty and well done. The atmosphere is perfect as it all fits together well for this little gem. Sedalia Is starving for more dining and drinking establishments like 518 Provisions. Creative, bold and unique. This is hands down- Our favorite place, beating out the Oak Room at the Bothwell. Please keep up the good work owners and staff. Signed, Happy patrons...
