Sally's On Broadway
4.7
( 8 reviews ) $$
Open until 09:00 PM

263 Broadway St, Springville, IA 52336, United States

“Definitely a diner. But it's good! The salad bar is good, and they did a good job on keeping items stocked. The hot bar is basic food... Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn, peas, fried chicken, shrimp, fried cod bites... it was all basic but decent. The food on the menu was good! It was busy, went on a Friday night, and they take reservations. Plenty of seating. I had the grilled 1/4 lb pork chop. Delicious! They have a bar for cocktails. I hear the pies are amazing, but I was too full to try. Next time!”

“Unfortunately, I wasn’t very impressed with my experience. I reserved a spot in advance from my phone, yet there was still quite a wait. Once I did get a table, service was quite slow to respond to me. They were busy, and I understand that, but I was close to wanting to leave because no one was even coming to my table to bring me a water after quite some time. I don’t know this for sure, and I’m only speculating, but it felt like bigger tables received attention, but the single person with a much smaller ending check (means smaller tip) was neglected. Once I was tended to, I ordered. The sales that came was quite lame. A $24 steak, and the salad had no cheese, croutons, cucumbers, nothing. I received wilted lettuce that was partially frozen, and dressing. That’s it. Was expecting more from $24 steak and a place that was nice. The Mexican cheese balls were pretty good. The steak was a bit tough, and dry as well. There was juice on the plate, so I could mop ghat up a bit, but not sure where it came from, because the steak itself was was fairly dry. The cheesy hash browns were ok, but again, it was cheese slices, instead of grated cheese. This is a low budget diner way to make cheesy hash browns. A nice steakhouse should be grating cheese, instead of using Kraft singles. It’s very possible that I could have a better experience on another trip, but the lame salad and cheap cheese option would still be there, even if the staff paid attention to me and the steak was tender and juicy. I’d be willing to try it again, but I’m not excited to, nor is it on the top of my list. Too many good places around that get my attention, but it’s not out of the question.”

Flying Mango

4345 Hickman Rd, Des Moines, IA 50310, United States

“I love my food spicy so this was a great treat for me. I had the shrimp and grits. Had a great uniquely flavored sauce with grits, large BBQ shrimp and toasted garlic bread. I may reccommend that a side vegetable should be added for a little more balance. Wife had the garlic lime chicken on pasta. The chicken was well seasoned which helped assist the pasta which she felt was needing a little more flavor. Also ordered their personalized coffee that we both found very good. We shared a slice of the chocolate cake. It was nice and thick, creamy and topped with a cinnamon flavored cayenne pepper looking candy. A comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. Staff made us feel welcome and were attentive. Good selection of wine, beer and other refreshments. Was also fun to see the open kitchen where you could view food preparation. I would advise calling ahead for a reservation. I would like to go back and try another dish to explore one of their BBQ dishes.”

“Don’t ask for their email address and you’ll be fine. Terrific food! Very friendly. You can tell it caters to locals and travelers alike. Will definitely be back! Some pictures of the place that were kindly refused. Apparently people are unused to people trying to give anything away for free. So free pictures you shall still receive! Stay blessed.”

Club Car Restaurant & Lounge- Clive
4.5
( 8 reviews ) $$

13435 University Ave #200, Clive, IA 50325, United States

“The food was ok. Got the onion rings, and those were top-notch. I chose something I normally don't get. But I decided on the Rarebit burger, which is a burger topped with cheddar cheese rarebit sauce. Served open-faced on a ciabatta bun. It didn't really spark a wow factor. I probably won't order it again. Our server was friendly and checked in many times. So great service.”

El Compita Mexican Bar And Grill

1121 E 2nd St, Webster City, IA 50595, United States

Marquee Pizzeria
4.3
( 8 reviews ) $$

920 E 2nd Ave #123, Coralville, IA 52241, United States

“This is a haven for the wood fired pizza purists. We started out with the stracciatella and wood-fired broccolini with spicy oil on the side and those were great. Then split the Margherita, school's out, and the limited time Nico. Definitely exactly what they promised to be. They have a Detroit pizza that looked amazing and will be gotten on my next visit. The place is new, the staff is great, everything is clean, plenty of parking right behind the business, and the area is very walkable for a day out.”

Donnelly's Pub
4.4
( 16 reviews )

110 E College St, Iowa City, IA 52240, United States

“I got the chicken sandwich here, and my wife got the Irish stew. My wife loved the stew, saying it was as good as she would expect from an Irish pub. While the garlic aioli was very good, and had a lot of garlic, the chicken was rather dry. Additionally, the breading on the chicken tasted unusual to me, and was not particularly good.”

Mustang Grill
4.4
( 8 reviews ) $$
Open until 08:00 PM

213 SE Main St, Grimes, IA 50111, United States

“Not really what we expected when we got there but the interior doesn't make the food taste good. Place isn't big, more of a bar feel then anything but it was clean and nice. Our waitress was super nice and gave us time to place our order and checked on us throughout our meal. The onion rings tasted like standard frozen rings imo wasnt worth the $7.99 but they were still good. Both burgers were amazing and juicy! Will definitely go back to try their other items.”

Jones County Local

22962 Co Rd E34, Anamosa, IA 52205, United States

“New favorite restaurant. Food was amazing, no complaints. Staff were very friendly and on top of service. Worth the drive no matter where you are coming from. Food prices are good as well, all what we ordered I was surprised of how cheap it was. Thanks Jones County Local, you’ll see us again.”

Stadium Bar And Grill

“I highly enjoyed my experience at Stadium. Stopped in for happy hour & some appetizers before the football game. The staff were friendly & quick to get drinks. I had the mushrooms and fries basket, both were fantastic. Crispy and flavorful. Great spot for drinks, food and time with friends.”
