Restaurants in Cedar Rapids

“after finding me in the dumpster, instead of being afraid or warning me off the manager actually asked me if I needed something to eat. I was treated to an ever bowl and it was amazing. absolutely delicious. being a vegetarian, and not a very good one I don't really get nutrition like I should. Both workers were absolutely amazing, cheerful and had a wonderful attitude towards their fellow human being. I recommend this place greatly. thank you so much for the new food experience.”

“Hands down best quality restaurant in town. Rotating menu with exquisitely sensible portions that are meant to be savored. You must try out this epicurean’s paradise!!”

“When visiting from out of town this was the first cafe that popped up and it did not disappoint. The latte was very well made and their iced vanilla latte was also really good and the service was really great. The baristas are very good at their job. The cost is about what you'd expect from a coffee shop and for a small latte and an iced vanilla latte it was about $9 before tip. It is a cute little shop and would suggest it any day. I will definitely be back.”

“Had an awesome experience tonight at Tornados. The food was fantastic and the service was exceptional. I’ve been here many times and have never been disappointed.”

“Amazing customer service and delicious food!! I had family from out of state come and visit this past weekend. We didn’t plan ahead and they accommodated our large group of people with no problem. It was my first time there but definitely won’t be my last. Thank you so much Bop’s Pizza for your wonderful service and excellent food!”

“This place is all around amazing.. Worth the 2 hour drive!! Amazing jerk chicken pasta, rice and if you haven't tried the soursop shake you are missing out!!”

“Our server Kale was excellent. Very thorough and attentive. We each tried something different. I had the Cobb salad with Chicken. It had unique corn bread crouton, cranberries, diced sweet potatoes, yummy fresh crumbles bacon bits. The sweet potato were the only part of my meal I was not a fan of. We all tried the salmon Cajun soup. It was good the salmon melted in your mouth. The Class Act burger my son said was easily the best burger he has had. My son's girlfriend had the Iowa omelet and she said it was yummy. My husband had the corn beef hash he said it was a great from scratch hash.”

“Been here twice now and have enjoyed the food and experience both times. will definitely be back! Food is very fresh and flavorful. Has a great vegetarian menu as well.”

“In town for a conference and did a Google search for restaurants close by and came across O’s Grill. I love Gyros so figured I would stop in. Instantly greeted when I walked through the door. Menu is simple and included pictures (for those that weren’t sure what they were ordering). I ordered the classic gyro box meal. The classic gyro and I ordered the falafel and hummus and pitas. They brought it to me. The appearance looked amazing. I tried the pita and hummus first and wow!! Absolutely delicious! I’ve only tried falafel one other time and it was delicious with the sauce! The gyro was top of the line! The siracha sauce gave it just enough zing! I have already told my friends about this place and wished it was closer to Waverly so I could frequent more often. Added plus.. the owner came out to make sure my food was ok and if I needed anything else. Always love when the owners make contact with the patrons!! Highly recommend and will definitely be back!!”

“This is the cutest quaint shop in NewBo! The owner and staff are fabulous and are friendly and very very talented. Their coffee blends are to die for! I have been going back to get grounds to take home because I go through them so fast. The flowers are simply gorgeous. Please remember them when you shop local.”

“This place is great the boba is always very delicious and the pho is good as well. The place is always clean and staff are always kind.Parking: Easy to find a spot usually. Not too much traffic going though the lotWheelchair accessibility: Though you can get in, the door is rather heavy”

“Went to Lucky's for breakfast with my family. I had the Villa with their French toast special (red velvet with a sweet cream cheese filling). The French toast was so delicious I didn't need syrup with it, my over easy eggs were perfect, the sausage links are huge and we got four to an order. My son had the mini waffles and they are decent price and excellent quality. We topped it off with coffee that our server Mika kept full and checked on us often. We will definitely have to go back and try other things on the breakfast menu.”

“I was very impressed with the food quality. Chips and salsa are very simple and often provided at no cost at most Mexican restaurants. This was the best salsa I’ve ever had. I highly recommend the food for its quality and taste.”

“Omg it was soooo good!!! It's a small menu with basically just pizza but that's all you need! The garlic cheese bread (a little surprised that it wasn't bready...more like a really thin pizza) was amazingly garlicky and cheesy! My husband and I both got different individual pizzas and both absolutely loved ours! If we lived closer we would come here all the time! It was definitely our best meal in our 6 state road trip thus far!”

“Delicious food and drinks. The Naanton Salad was so good! Prompt, friendly and not overbearing service. Will definitely go again if I'm ever back in Cedar Rapids.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free menu section available, too.”

“WOW. We had such a great experience at Lacayo. First, THIS IS NOT ANOTHER MEXICAN RESTAURANT. This is Latin American cuisine and it’s one of the best places in Cedar Rapids. Everything is so flavorful, it’s all made in house (even the tortillas), and the service is wonderful. We had a meal with friends and enjoyed it so much, we went back for brunch the next day. Looking for a brunch spot that doesn’t just offer the same standard breakfast items but packs tons of flavor? This is your place. You have to get the tamale. The sauce is out of this world. Will be returning and bringing friends and family to share in the experience. This place is a must if you’re going to be dining out in Cedar Rapids.”

“This was our first visit but definitely not our last! Wait staff were amazing, and food and drinks were delicious. Loved the Almost Shrimp and Grits! Atmosphere was eclectic and fun. Had a very enjoyable evening.”

“Regularly visit basix but drag roulette has been my favorite show so far as the queens and kings are forced to show off raw talent vs purely choreographed sets and it was absolutely ”

“Went to dinner for my anniversary tonight. Food was amazing, staff was friendly and informative. My husband was very impressed with their bourbon flights. Would definitely recommend!”

“It was our first time dining today! I am from Waterloo and drive by often when in CR and have always wanted to try. Not only were the food and drinks amazing but, the servers were extremely friendly and helpful. I cant wait to visit again.”

“Just got done eating, staff were very polite and complimented my attire, the food was excellent as always, and came out quickly as well, would recommend to anyone who enjoys good Japanese food.”

“I had an exceptionally excellent meal last night! Texas Roadhouse is ALWAYS great, but my server went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary needs and wishes. As a person following a gluten free predominantly keto diet, it’s not always easy! She gave me salad without croutons, I had the 16 oz ribeye medium rare, and loaded broccoli. Yes folks, broccoli with butter, sour cream, cheese and bacon, and when I asked for it on a plate instead of a small bowl, and explained why, (better cheese melt), she said heck yes and got ‘er done. Now I know this isn’t every one’s cup of tea, but it sure made my night, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she doesn’t try it herself next time… signed, Potatoes Not Necessary!”

“Favorite spot in town for Chinese food, try the Honey Chicken or the Lemon Chicken if you've never had it. It's sweet and savory. Otherwise, your favorite dishes are all going to be solid picks because this dude is a beast in the kitchen.”

“I had a very enjoyable dinner with two friends in July 2022. The food was excellent! I noticed a large variety of drinks from the bar. Slightly dim light great for a romantic date”

“This is my "go to" place in Cedar Rapids. The food is always good no matter what you pick, the atmosphere is nice, the drinks are good and so is the service. When someone is looking for a place to eat, this is most always my suggestion.”

“Went to Wine Styles today for a glass of wine after lunch, and it was wonderful! Had great service from Stacey. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the wine. The wine selections were varied, and we loved the wine we had there by the glass today. Such a fun atmosphere where you can shop for wine to take home while having a glass in the shop. Good prices on wine bottles to take home. Perfect place to add to our afternoon today! Thank you for the excellent service, Stacey!”

“Had my bachelorette party at one of the shows, it was a blast! The actors were great and hilarious. The food was amazing!! I thought it was so fun to take notes of everything and go around to different tables to interview people. Or having people come interview our table. The show was very well done and I had an amazing time!! Couldn’t recommend it enough!”

“Every year I take my daughter to dinner on Valentine's Day. This year we chose Midtown Reserve for our date. The atmosphere was great. Our server (Megan) was exceptional. Our food (NY Strip and Crab Cakes) was amazing and very well-prepared and well-presented. I believe the prices were also appropriate.”

“We have always gone to Lobsterfest,great place to get the family together, or just Husband and I, but,this time the lobster was tough and kind of dried out..I am sorry to say that, but, we actually took lobster home,not finishing our meal.It was not up to the quality of seafood we have always had in the past. This was Cedar Rapids, and usually we go to Davenport location. Thank You, I know this is something no one can control, you never know what you are going to get!We will be back..”

“I really wish restaurant stayed open past 10:30 AM on Saturdays for breakfast. We would have stayed and paid to eat (and charged to our room) but we missed it by 5-6 minutes. I bet a lot of people, like me, like to sleep in when traveling.”

“Came in Friday night Jessica was our server she was the only one who was here and took on the whole building to her self she’s such a strong server and the cook made great food I will be coming back”

“Usually I don’t have issues with this place but the night shift was rude as heck. Told me I didn’t order what I ordered when I know what I ordered. Clearly someone pressed something wrong into their computers. I was nice about my order being wrong but ended up getting attitude and an eye roll from a young lady in a bonnet. None of this was my fault. Do better.”

“This is the only 24/7 McDonald's in the area and it was a little confusing to try and navigate getting my order picked up as someone who delivers. However, it was just a quirk that was a product of the menus switching over to the breakfast menu. Other than that I'm usually pretty happy with the service and the order is ready for me to pickup when I arrive”

“Came here for lunch today and I will say it’s some of the best restaurant BBQ I’ve had, they don’t skimp on the meat and their special BBQ sauces are a must try!”

“Great little find when visiting from Des Moines. Cozy atmosphere, personable staff, amaaaaazing breakfast, and the bartender made a mean Bloody Mary. Will definitely be back if I ever go back to CR!”

“If you know Cedar Rapids, you know David Pei. Not only is his food to-die-for, he’s one of the nicest restaurant owners. Accomplished fisherman, who knows his fish. Highly recommend!!!”

“Went on a date night to try somewhere new. Our server was so nice and informative about the menu. Both tried two of the burgers and were happy and went home full. Loved that you could pick salad, fries, or soup of the day for the side. Will 100% go again and recommend to everybody. ❤️”

“Ordered Cubano sandwhich; great flavor; ate with fork/knife; crisp onion rings...not greasy; service exceptional...will return to try brunch!Parking: Very convenient across the street.”

“We loved everything we ordered! Started with the brussel sprouts and oh my goodness....so good! One of my kiddos was pleasantly surprised that salmon was included on the kids menu so that was a five star rating on her end!! Ended with the cotton candy tower...fantastic!”

“Absolutely delicious food, I am always grateful for the plethora of vegetarian options. Also appreciate that when I ask for no spice here, I get a truly mild dish that is still packed with flavor. The service was great. Nice, clean atmosphere.”

“Ordered a Happy Napi Sandwich and Spaghetti dinner, which we order a couple times a week. We ordered from the Vienna store and the food from there is fantastic. Always above perfect and the driver was very polite. Highly recommend Napolis in Vienna.”

“the employees here are the best I've ever found. they go the distance to make you comfortable and always have a smile to brighten your day. the food here is out of this world and coming here sets the tone for the rest of my day. I recommend this place to anymore that can make it here. you won't be disappointed.”

“The delivery driver is the best in town! He always says it is nice to see you again with you name! He is so friendly and he make you want to keep having it delivered and never pick it up so you can see him!”

“I love this place so much. So much I’m putting this place and my favorite server in my novels. The family is so sweet and kind, good is really good and at a good price. A true gem.”

“Amazing experience for our first time. Friendly staff, presentation was wonderful, and food was delicious. Best part is the all you can eat option! Will definitely be our sushi spot from now on!”

“I adore how quiet this place is, the food is amazing, and they have the best crab Rangoons in town too! The bubble tea is always delicious too, hard to resist ordering all of them. Probably my favorite spot in town right now. Plus the servers are soooo nice and helpful too.”

“Stopped by today with my family and I must say I am a new huge fan!! Her and her staff not only gave exceptional service, but amazing food as well. My daughter loved the fries and I myself found her smoothie with protein to be top notch. And you all when I talk about her butter cookies, I mean it when I say they deserve their own Michelin star. Kudos to Miss Shawnnie and the team on a bomb place!!”

“I love this place. Sliders are good price for the size. a wide variety of egg rolls both regular and dessert. the baked goods are great prices too. they have daily specials that change up everyday. if in CR you should give it a try.”

“Great food from great people.Dietary restrictions: Real food with known ingredients, not processed.Parking: Parking surrounding the building on all 4 sides. Don't hesitate to use the Benz or neighboring chiropractors' lot next to Lightworks if in front of Lightworks or along the street is full & the street is very seldom full.Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome. They love & accommodate kids. Not sure if they have a kids menu, it is a high-quality coffee shop with a somewhat rotating menu of skillfully prepared soups, salads, sandwiches, baked goods, breakfast items, etc.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level & wide door.A wheel chair user would just need help with the door.”

“Wanting a sweet and cold treat? Check this local place out. It is always busy for a reason! Quick and friendly service with a large variety of menu options to choose from. They also offer a drive through for convenience.”

“Been wanting to stop in and finally got the opportunity! I'm from out of town... Very GOOD! The Burrito Paisa with Carnita pork! DELICIOUS!! I did recommend they serve in house without being wrapped. That's the only problem! Great service, clean place! May stop back if I get the chance!”

“It's Chick-fil-A! Great food at a decent price and friendly fast service. It's what they are known for and this one doesn't disappoint. And if you can't find a sauce that you like... Well then, it's your own fault. Seriously, if you want a good quick meal that didn't break the back, this is the place.”

“Freddys has the best French fries! I couldn’t taste any salt which I really like. Chilli cheese dogs are yummy. Their jalapeño fry sauce is very good too. Best of all, they serve Pepsi!This Freddy’s is clean and like new.. Bathrooms are clean and handicapped accessible.Parking: Easy parking near a Walmart too.Wheelchair accessibility: Good accessibility and bathroom is large enough to navigate.”

“Seriously the best. We have driven across town to get the Blizzard Cakes for each one of our childrens' birthdays over the years (we have five kids) and every time they are DELICIOUS. Made right there onsite, never purchased elsewhere; extra fudge.... soooo good. Not to mention the customer service rocks. This is "our DQ!"”

“Well, hey, it's Arby's. If you like it, you like it. We actually work here, and the service our location provides(Edgewood) ranges from mediocre to pretty alright. I'd give it a 3.2 star on their bad nights and a 4.4 on their good nights. Still love the fries, you absolutely gotta get em fresh though if you want them to taste good.They end up parking a lot of orders, and I completely disagree with their choice to remodel, but it is what it is. By the way, they DON'T serve breakfast or ham here. If you're hungry later in the day, come on by sometime!Kid-friendliness: Kid's meals available, toys included”

“Had amazing service at this location, we didn't catch the young ladies name but she was very friendly, had beautiful red hair & helped ring us up with two peanut butter powers.The best scooters location me & my husband have been to thus far. Thank you for great service & being the only location open at 9pm. Great for me & my husband since we get off work late.”

“Ordered thin crust family size pizza on Father's Day. Toppings included chicken, hamburger, bacon and Canadian bacon with extra sauce. A lot of each ingredient spread across pizza. Very filling, very good!”

“They employees are fast and very friendly. The food was hot and fresh. We didn't wait long in line to order food. The dining room was pretty busy. It was a good experience overall.”

“Wow!! I am just going to say THANK YOU!! Kudos to Malik!! He was very pleasant, fast and knew what went on each sub we ordered without looking!! In fact he asked us if we wanted everything that was suppose to be on the sub, very impressive if you ask me!!Unfortunately you do not get experiences like this anymore especially at "fast food" places.Not sure the other girls name who was working, but she was also friendly and on her game!!Thank you both, we appreciate you!!”

“Thank you Skylar for going "above" and removing tomatoes that I forgot to ask be left off because of allergy. You could have left them for me to pick off but you did it quickly for me. Thank you!”

“I had a #9 lettuce wrap/Unwich. Delicious. Great service. The music was up way too loud and the acoustics were poor. Def not a place to relax over lunch. To-Go next time? Tasty brownies!”

“I will love Culver’s till the day I die. They have the best chicken strips and fries I’ve ever had. Best fast food EVERDietary restrictions: They do very politely tell you if something has _______ in it. If you have severe food allergies to something, tel them!”

“#10: Hunter's Club and #17: Ultimate Porker are my go to favorite sandwiches year round at Jimmy John's. I love their Chocolate Chip Cookies and Fudge Brownies.I also love the Chicken Caesar Wrap, despite being a limited time option.Every time I order something from Jimmy John's on Kirkwood Blvd, everything looks and tastes great.”

“This place is AMAZING!! New flavors for Mexican food i haven’t tasted before. The service was fantastic, the workers are so nice and joke around with you and have fun. The food came out about 10 min after we ordered which is super fast for 6 people at a table. I tasted all the food on the table and nothing was overly spicy. It was all so flavorful and delicious. Everyone’s plate was huge too!! PLUS AT THE END WE GOT A FULL SIZED FREE SHOT THATS HOUSE MADE. That was very good too. Over all i will be a loyal customer to this restaurant.”

“Tim, Adam, and Up In Smoke catered our church choir retreat lunch. Delicious pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, and cheese potatoes. People went back for seconds and thirds. Great food and plenty for all. Thanks guys!”

“We ate there yesterday. There was an older woman with short hair who didn’t smile once the whole time we were in there. There was a younger girl behind the counter the same way. There was blonde girl who was phenomenal at serving the customers. The food was okay. I was just not happy with the vibe those two women were giving off.”

“We've been to Craft'd many times for beverages and bakery items… but today was the first day we had breakfast, and had it delivered to our home via Grubhub. It was fantastic! We had croissant sandwiches with egg and cheese, avocado toast, and some chocolates. I was a bit hesitant about ordering a warm sandwich for delivery… but it was wrapped in aluminum foil and very warm when it arrived. GrubHub delivery fee is only $1.99 and free if you have Amazon prime… We will definitely be ordering breakfast from Craft'd for delivery again!”

“Amazing experience tonight! A group of 5 girls got together and first met up at a restaurant on 1st Avenue and 2nd Street downtown. The service was beyond horrible. It took 45+ minutes and THREE requests for our server just to bring water to the table. One girl told our waitress to just cancel our orders as we were going elsewhere. The waitress literally gave us a thumbs up and kept on walking. We reconvened as a group to Mamacita's, and from the minute we walked in we were treated amazing. The restaurant was packed, and they were busy, but we never felt neglected in the least. Macarena was our server and she was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. The bartender was Julio, and the drinks were total perfection. Amazing food, drinks, and service. Mamacitas did an incredible job turning a bad dining experience into a wonderfully memorable experience!!!”

“our first time here.....food was top notch and the help were very accommodating and friendly....plus visit with the other paytons...just an all around great experience. would recommend this place and will definitely go back.”

“Stopped by for the first time and let me tell ya what, BurgerFiend is exactly what other Guys wish they could be. For the price of a certain 3 bun burger I got exactly what I wanted with a side of delicious fries. Could not be happier. Also finished it all off with a delectable chocolate shake. They use French Vanilla base with chocolate syrup so it's creamy but not overly rich. I will return.”

“I'm usually very hard to please and my first time visiting but I am 100% surely returning.Brisket was best I've had in years! Homemade cheese sauce used in Mac & cheese (very delicious), brussel sprouts are grilled up with nice caramelization and tastyCan't go wrong stopping here, friendly staff & tasty food.”

“Certainly made the correct choice for St. Patrick's Day. Having never been before you wouldn't have known with such a warm atmosphere and everything you would expect from an Irish pub/bar. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Drinks were perfect, and there were definitely a lot of shenanigans happening with a couple servings of malarkey. Thank you!!”

“Had breakfast. Everything was cooked perfectly. Their cocktail menu looked amazing, gonna be back to try that apple old fashioned. Service was wonderful. My buddy had the sliders and they looked great, so I know what I'm ordering next time!”

“Some of my coworkers have bought cookies from this chain and sang praises about them. And it just so happens there was one in my area.When I arrived, I could instantly smell freshly baked cookies. To me, that’s one of the best smells in the world. Granted, the inside area was very small for customers; only enough room to organize a line to the register and two spaces to place orders via touchscreen displays.The touchscreen displays were very convenient and allowed me to easily browse their wares. I was surprised (and somewhat disappointed) that only six types of cookies were available. It wasn’t until I did a little digging that this business would rotate flavors each week and offer special kinds during certain seasons/holidays/etc.The cashier was friendly and easily answered all my questions. I’m thankful she confirmed how the carrot cake cost about a dollar more than the other cookies.The cookies I chose were Double Fudge Brownie, Lemon Crinkle, and Strawberry Pretzel Pie. The size for each cookie was considerable but also had a price to match; over $4 per cookie. Definitely a treat to be enjoyed sparingly.The Double Fudge Brownie cookie was deemed excellent by my dad.As for my mom, who wanted the Lemon Crinkle, she thought it was okay, believing it could have used more lemon zest to improve the flavor. And after sampling it, I’d have to agree; the Crinkle cookie seemed to need more lemon and probably could have done with a slightly fancier appearance like some icing/glaze.When I dig into the Strawberry Pretzel Pie, I was surprised by how thick the cookies were. The people who made these did not do things by halves. And the flavor was pretty tasty. The pretzels added a nice crunch with the strawberry sauce being tangy and sweet, the cream topping was smooth and, well, creamy.I’m not sure how often I’ll return here, but the other options in rotation have earned my interest. The prices are high, but when they do cookies right, they’re done right.Vegetarian options: It’s a dessert shop. In my experience, meat isn’t a cookie ingredient.Parking: The parking lot is shared with several other businesses. Despite that, I found plenty of parking space.”

“Not a horrible place. We were there for a company party, so the place was closed to the public and we were the only ones there. It was very open. In the way back they had games, like cornhole. I didn't really go back there so I'm not sure what else was back there. And there is a pool table up front. The only thing that bothered me was its location. It's behind other stores, so you kinda have to know where you're going or else you'll miss it. The entrance is in between two businesses and farther back. But, obviously, they can't do anything about that, so it just is what it is. I did like the size of the place and how airy it felt, the ceilings are really high, I think it was just a warehouse that they converted into a bar. But, all in all, it's an okay b ar. Not the best, definitely not high scale. I don't know how much drinks cost because ours were covered..”

“Every time I'm in Cedar Rapids I have to visit The Blind Pig! The food and service are excellent. Plus the wait staff do a wonderful job and the atmosphere is upbeat and everyone is so friendly.”

“Came in yesterday for breakfast and ordered the "Shipwreck". Came out quick, hot, and all ingredients were fresh! Asked the server who was cooking for us and she said Stephanie.... if she's the one cooking all the time, we will definitely be back!”

“We didn't plan on going here tonight, but this is where we ended up. I'm so happy we found this place. We stopped in tonight because we forgot it was Sunday and our normal go-to spots where we normally get food were closed already. So here we were hungry and in need of somewhere with some good food that was open past 8. Google led us right to them. I got the birria tacos. They were juicy with great portions and full of so much flavor. They have been the best birria tacos I have ever had. I will definitely be going back to try more options from the menu and some drinks.”

“It was great to sit down and simply enjoy the breakfast sandwiches and excellent environment!!!Parking: Perfect in terms of getting in and out. This is a great McDonalds!!”

“Don't let the size for you Big flavor even bigger personality by far one of the best dairy Queens I've been in and yes there's not a lot of room but it feels cozy and the food is freshly made to order and if you want to see your ice cream be made right in front of you they do that too so if you find yourself in there enjoy and ask about the meal deals they're usually amazing and sometimes it feels like you're stealing because of how much they're giving youVegetarian options: I am quite sorry my vegetarians of the world this place is a ice cream enthusiastes wet dream and a salad eater's nightmare Yes they do have salads Yes they have vegetarian options when it comes to their salads but they do not really have a large vegetarian option You're limited to salad maybe in the future they might have some veggie burgers and alternatives as of now they do not and I am sorryParking: It is a very small parking lot you might be able to get three maybe four cars in but they do have a designated parking spot for people picking up from drive-thruWheelchair accessibility: Very wheelchair accessible they have a large ramp coming all the way from the parking lot up to the front door now maneuverability is going to be a little limited so ask for help if needed otherwise if you have some range movement you should be able to get in there quite easily but it might be a bit of a tight squeeze depending on your size”

“I recently dined at Outback in Cedar Rapids and had a very good experience. The steak I ordered was cooked exactly as I requested. The wedge salad was generously sized with well proportioned toppings/dressing.What impressed me the most was the manager's presence; she not only checked on our table but also made rounds to ensure every guest was enjoying their meal.My husband enjoyed his steak and shrimp pasta, noting its good portion size and flavorful preparation.Our server was attentive and accommodating throughout the meal.The only feedback I have is regarding the timing of our courses. We received our appetizers and salad, but our entrees followed closely behind, which felt a bit rushed. Overall, though, it was a satisfying dining experience, and I would definitely return.I have been to this Outback several times and it has consistently delivered a pleasant experience.”

“We visited today and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Sorry we did not get his name but he has a Dino tattoo on the back of his arm that I spyed while he was helping another couple. Food was super hot and fresh. Sure miss having one on NE side of town.”

“This is my "go to" place in Cedar Rapids. The food is always good no matter what you pick, the atmosphere is nice, the drinks are good and so is the service. When someone is looking for a place to eat, this is most always my suggestion.”

“Found this hidden gem while visiting Iowa, loved the shrimp pho and spring rolls. Good value too! Family owned and operated, very vintage. It was very quiet when we were there so I think a bit of music could help the ambiance but overall good experience, we would def recommend.”

“It's a small bar that has some sports on & a little food & bar. Server was great & drinks were awsome! Cydeal & Max mix up some great cocktails. You gotta try a seasonal beverage”

“This has been my club for years. It's a bar, not a bottle club, so the cover at the door is reasonable - only $5.00 before 8PM. Music is not too loud so you can talk to the girls. I'm there to get as much female attention as I can, so I am nice to the girls and they are nice to me. There are a variety of types and some have greedy attitudes so you have to be careful but I usually find someone to make me feel good. I do miss Nikki. I was in love with her. They serve good, strong drinks and beers an old guy can like (Miller High Life for me). The management is pretty tough but they let the girls work the tables as well as the stage. This old guy enjoys himself when he's there.”

“First time for me at a Hy-Vee Grocery Store.I really liked the experience. Had the feel of an old time grocery with all the sales banners from the ceiling.Nice meats section and wide variety of brands.”

“We ordered the broasted chicken w/potato wedges and tenderloin w/fries. I am VERY PICKY with broasted chicken. However, this is THE BEST broasted chicken I've ever had!! It was moist, tender, and had a buttery taste to it. Did not have the normal greasy, oily taste. I highly recommended having it! The tenderloin was average. Service was good and servers were friendly. 3 stars for atmosphere just cause it's your normal hole in the wall bar.”

“They have the most greatest and authentic azada corn tortilla tacos with onion and cilantro. Since I tried them out been a weekly or 2 times a week since to get a few. They now know me by heart and they say no lime first with me which is key due to family allergies.Dietary restrictions: They understand my partners allergies and make sure to not include it on my mine so I don't accidentally poison him with a kiss.”

“I have heard of this on commercials. so naturally I had to try. they welcomed me in, let me choose my sandwich. (which I recommend getting #8). I tried it Mike's way. it's the BEST sub I have ever had. and I was not sure what to expect. I used to love subway, then for what ever reason something changed. so I tried Casey's subs. They were ok. but still missing something. I found it . Go eat at Jerseys Mike. you will not regret it.”

“This place was good for the first time trying it. I went with the mind to order some chicken wings but unfortunately they were out so she gave me 6 drumsticks instead and she even thru in a extra pc since they were out of wing's. Friendly and cool place. Will be going back to visitKid-friendliness: Seems to be”

“We loved everything we ordered! Started with the brussel sprouts and oh my goodness....so good! One of my kiddos was pleasantly surprised that salmon was included on the kids menu so that was a five star rating on her end!! Ended with the cotton candy tower...fantastic!”

“Picked up from their food truck Steak and Shimp Habachi and Chicken and Shrimp Habachi. Great food and good amount for the money. Have not ever had such great food from a food truck ever! 10 out of 10 recommend.”

“Came in Friday night Jessica was our server she was the only one who was here and took on the whole building to her self she’s such a strong server and the cook made great food I will be coming back”

“Tried app sampler and chicken tenders were amazing, really good honey mustard. Got my usual for dinner and everything just as I expected. Luis was a great server, so friendly and accommodating. Very quick to clear plates, bring refills and ask if all was well once we had received our food. Helped us order to go muffins/rolls for breakfast tomorrow. Great to find such kind and attentive service, thank you!”

“I had an exceptionally excellent meal last night! Texas Roadhouse is ALWAYS great, but my server went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary needs and wishes. As a person following a gluten free predominantly keto diet, it’s not always easy! She gave me salad without croutons, I had the 16 oz ribeye medium rare, and loaded broccoli. Yes folks, broccoli with butter, sour cream, cheese and bacon, and when I asked for it on a plate instead of a small bowl, and explained why, (better cheese melt), she said heck yes and got ‘er done. Now I know this isn’t every one’s cup of tea, but it sure made my night, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she doesn’t try it herself next time… signed, Potatoes Not Necessary!”

“Some of my coworkers have bought cookies from this chain and sang praises about them. And it just so happens there was one in my area.When I arrived, I could instantly smell freshly baked cookies. To me, that’s one of the best smells in the world. Granted, the inside area was very small for customers; only enough room to organize a line to the register and two spaces to place orders via touchscreen displays.The touchscreen displays were very convenient and allowed me to easily browse their wares. I was surprised (and somewhat disappointed) that only six types of cookies were available. It wasn’t until I did a little digging that this business would rotate flavors each week and offer special kinds during certain seasons/holidays/etc.The cashier was friendly and easily answered all my questions. I’m thankful she confirmed how the carrot cake cost about a dollar more than the other cookies.The cookies I chose were Double Fudge Brownie, Lemon Crinkle, and Strawberry Pretzel Pie. The size for each cookie was considerable but also had a price to match; over $4 per cookie. Definitely a treat to be enjoyed sparingly.The Double Fudge Brownie cookie was deemed excellent by my dad.As for my mom, who wanted the Lemon Crinkle, she thought it was okay, believing it could have used more lemon zest to improve the flavor. And after sampling it, I’d have to agree; the Crinkle cookie seemed to need more lemon and probably could have done with a slightly fancier appearance like some icing/glaze.When I dig into the Strawberry Pretzel Pie, I was surprised by how thick the cookies were. The people who made these did not do things by halves. And the flavor was pretty tasty. The pretzels added a nice crunch with the strawberry sauce being tangy and sweet, the cream topping was smooth and, well, creamy.I’m not sure how often I’ll return here, but the other options in rotation have earned my interest. The prices are high, but when they do cookies right, they’re done right.Vegetarian options: It’s a dessert shop. In my experience, meat isn’t a cookie ingredient.Parking: The parking lot is shared with several other businesses. Despite that, I found plenty of parking space.”

“Was there the day it opened (1970s). I grew up just around the corner on Regent Street. I worked at Elmcrest (1974-1976) and everynight as I walked home from work I stopped by for a chocolate shake. Three of my siblings worked there as well as an old girlfriend. Even knew the owner/creator Stewart Salter. After moving to Oklahoma and when visiting my parents on Regent St., I always made a point of stopping by - ensuring both my kids had the opportunityy to experience the Kool-Moo experience. Awesomeness! R.J. Hansel”

“Every time I'm in Cedar Rapids I have to visit The Blind Pig! The food and service are excellent. Plus the wait staff do a wonderful job and the atmosphere is upbeat and everyone is so friendly.”

“Went to Lucky's for breakfast with my family. I had the Villa with their French toast special (red velvet with a sweet cream cheese filling). The French toast was so delicious I didn't need syrup with it, my over easy eggs were perfect, the sausage links are huge and we got four to an order. My son had the mini waffles and they are decent price and excellent quality. We topped it off with coffee that our server Mika kept full and checked on us often. We will definitely have to go back and try other things on the breakfast menu.”

“I was very impressed with the food quality. Chips and salsa are very simple and often provided at no cost at most Mexican restaurants. This was the best salsa I’ve ever had. I highly recommend the food for its quality and taste.”

“The fries are the best thing EVER! I also never order far from my comfort zone, but I did and the poutine burger was worth it. service was on point also. 50 stars”

“The service was excellent! We got some yummy sandwiches, had some out of this world ice cream pie, and the manager was very kind and even offered us free vanilla ice cream because there was a little wait for our sides. We will be sure to come back, especially because of our excellent server and the very kind manager. ❤️???”

“If you know Cedar Rapids, you know David Pei. Not only is his food to-die-for, he’s one of the nicest restaurant owners. Accomplished fisherman, who knows his fish. Highly recommend!!!”

“Tremendous bang for your buck! Opted for the salmon for dinner, and it was superb. The service was exceptional and speedy, with an attentive and amiable waiter. And let me tell you about the honey butter croissant – it's simply irresistible. You might try to resist, but in the end, you'll succumb to its deliciousness! I'm already looking forward to my next visit.”

“Omg it was soooo good!!! It's a small menu with basically just pizza but that's all you need! The garlic cheese bread (a little surprised that it wasn't bready...more like a really thin pizza) was amazingly garlicky and cheesy! My husband and I both got different individual pizzas and both absolutely loved ours! If we lived closer we would come here all the time! It was definitely our best meal in our 6 state road trip thus far!”

“My dad and I popped in for lunch at Czech Town Station. Our waitress was very helpful throughout our meal and quite accommodating with helping us select beers to try with our meal. We both ended up getting the schnitzel with tots and potato salad. We polished it off because we were hungry tourists. This restaurant provided a nice pick-me-up for us to continue exploring Czech Village and Cedar Rapids.”

“Although not alot of options for vegitarians, the food was great! The staff was super friendly and of course, great beer!Vegetarian options: Not many options for vegitarians, but a few, and they're good (avocado grilled cheese sandwich).”

“WOW, they have the BEST fried tacos. everything we ordered was good but the fried tacos were so full of flavor. my very picky daughter loved them 10/10 will definitely be making this our new Mexican place to visit. the staff was very friendly. so happy they decided to come to CR.”

“Macarons are to die for! I love the salted caramel and thought they were amazing (they are) and then I tried the chai macarons--wow! So perfectly spiced! But now I just tasted the lavender ones--heaven! Must try!”

“This place is wonderful! My daughter and I were running a little late and showed up 30 min before closing and were still treated very well! I have food allergies and the owner and chef Joe was absolutely wonderful in helping me out by preparing my food without soy. The atmosphere is awesome and the food is incredible! I had shrimp tacos and the shrimp was fresh and grilled perfectly. The potatoes for a side (I can’t remember the Mexican name for them ) were soooo awesome and unique! We will be back! 5stars!!!!!”
