We came in an hour before close and our server was efficient with getting orders put in and we didn't feel rushed at all while the staff readied for closing. We all had endless shrimp and everything was delicious. Very happy to see it is a permanent menu item.

I ordered a create your own 2 orders of Walt's fried shrimp. One order of the shrimp was. 5 count them 5 ?. I was embarrassed for you to give me 5 shrimp. I was appalled. Of course, I got 2 orders. 10 shrimp. The price was about the same or more. I won't be back for shrimp.

Inside…fine, clean. The handicapped parking was located on the side of the building & the closest door had no handle to get it open. We had to walk all the way around to the front of the building. Iowa winters can be harsh. Wheelchairs, crutches, canes do not do so well thru rain or snow. Even in good weather this was more of a trek than necessary!Wheelchair accessibility: See above comments…not great!

We had a great time here! As soon as we walked in we were greeted by 4-5 of the employees with a big smile. Our food came out incredibly fast, so props to the kitchen crew for that! Our waitress, Madison, attended to us frequently and brought us refills of biscuits and drinks without being asked. She had a great personality and we really enjoyed our time there!

Good atmosphere, clean place, nice servers. The food was over priced. Stuffing in lobster was not nice. Seasoning on steak was bad. Drinks were $10 each. And the sangria was not good, tasted like just syrup. Bread was dry and soaked in butter.

DO NOT GO2 people from my table had food poisoning about 30 minutes after finishing their food.Place was not busy and several servers were standing around, but our table was very rarely taken care of. Even getting water took an absurd amount of time. Our server came to our table a total of about 3 times during our nearly 3 hour visit. The wait for our food was absurdly long as there were very few people in the restaurant, including not even getting the biscuits until about an hour of waiting.

Service was slow and the food was terrible. No one was there and we still waited an hour before anyone came with biscuits or to take our order. Food was so bad I got food poisoning. Worst restaurant experience I have ever had. I would not recommend to others.
