I am almost 60 years old and the Smokestack Breakfast I just ate was the best I have ever had, bar none! The service was also good and I really like this place. Have to shop now!

Ordered Turkish bun and coffee. Sadly, the place was understaffed, thus it was hard for servers to keep up. Because our group exceeded 6 (about 10), a 22% gratuity was automatically assessed. I wouldn't mind so much but it was 18% service. And we were an easy group - no substitutions or complaining. Service very slow. Took over 20 minutes to get coffee. We were there for over an hour. A mistake was made on our order and corrected with brought to attention. Food ok. Skimpy with the cream. Ambience nice and historic.
I might go again and allow for more time, and review the menu before arrival to place an order upon being seated.
I like to support rural businesses and I can imagine managing them is not easy.

Awesome atmosphere. It’s small and quaint. Food was amazing. I had the warm spinach artichoke dip served in a warm bread bowl. The pork medallion dish is one of the best I’ve had. Portions were very generous. TJ did an awesome job serving. I definitely recommend this place. I can’t wait to come back!

We went there for breakfast and tried a few different dishes. Loved the Farmers Bowl, The Dutch babies and Oat cakes.Service was excellent and the decor was welcoming and inspiring. This restaurant is inside the Hotel Millwright in Amana.

Amazing food. The chef does a wonderful job, especially with breakfast. The bellweather breakfast sandwich is excellent.
We had high hopes for our dinner here. Our breakfast earlier that day was VERY delicious but dinner was a real let down.The service was extremely disappointing, so much so that one has to wonder if the staff has received any training at all in food service. But that could be overlooked if the food is good, but it was hit and miss.The first hit was the side salad which was really fresh, the bleu cheese dressing and the croutons were delish!The potatoes with our “ribeye” steaks were also really good but the hits stop there. The vegetable medely was unseasoned and bland. The piperade, served on the beef was very overpowering and unpleasant. I’ve had piperade before that was delicious, this was not.I’m not sure what cut of beef they were serving as “ribeye” but I’ve never had a ribeye like that. It was quite tough with veins of gristle where a ribeye should not have it and completely lacking beef flavor. Add to that the fact that both were seriously overcooked and the result is an overpriced, unsatisfying meal.

We ordered Mussels for an appetizer, half of them did not open during cooking which could indicate either not cooked fully, or already dead when being cooked. They didn't bring us any extra plates so we kind of had to huddle around the food. The broth was good though.Wife and I got the stuffed chicken breast meal, and the brisket sandwich and shared both. The chicken breast was dry and my half was 3 bites worth of food. The cherry reduction sauce with it was good, but didn't fit with the chicken.The brisket sandwich was also dry. It had maybe 2 slices of brisket on the whole thing. The gouda cheese was broiled until it was black and I picked it off. The fries had a good amount of salt but were a bit soggy. When the food was dropped off we requested a side of BBQ sauce. There are no condiments at the table. Our waiter never returned to our table the rest of the night. I had to go to the hotel bar to request to pay, and they sent me back to the restaurant and the bartender went to find my server who claimed they were making salads. We were our servers only table. When we left there were only 2 other tables with patrons on a Saturday night.Don't recommend eating there but a cool atmosphere.

Got a salad and cup of soup to go. Terribly small portions for over $20 lunch, and left me just as hungry.

We stopped in for a snack and cocktails and were pleasantly surprised. The cocktails were top notch as the bar tender TJ was truly amazing and definitely knew her stuff. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms that were delicious !!!! This is a must stop when in the area !!!
