Checks all the boxes. Best place in town.
Your Sunday bloody Mary is priced incorrectly in two places on your menu; $6 & $6.25 which we were charged the higher price. We showed it to the waitress (we were sitting at the bar) and her explanation was 'oh there would be no room to put the 25 cents on that part of menu'. She didn't get it and missed the entire point of that isn't how that works.
We did appreciate all the signage of full disclosure of your choice to charge customers for credit cards. With that said; will be last time we will come back specifically because of it vs choosing to bake it into the menu cost. Honestly it was 50/50 chance of not going in at all and going elsewhere last night.
the chicken was burnt. they where out of some beers. they had 2 real waiters and 1 waiter in training.

A very casual place with a decently sized parking lot. We came on an Iowa State basketball game day for lunch, so that’s definitely our fault for the slow/mediocre service.
I loved my carnitas street corn bowl. It was a great size and the proportions of beans, pico, carnitas, corn, and sauce were perfect to the amount of rice given. The leftovers also tasted great. 😌 (the picture I took didn’t do serve justice, I was so hungry and just wanted to eat)
Boyfriend got the chicken version of the street corn bowel & he agreed that the carnitas version is had a better taste.
I would come back again. :)
PS: other items pictured was guac & my mocktail. Guacamole was ok! Nothing special.

I've lived here and never tried this place, but a friend was in town and recommended it for supper. We sat at the bar, the server was great to start, and food came out looking delicious. Had an issue with my food, so it got remade. After that, I felt like we were being shamed as our server wouldn't help us anymore, and no one would come to us. My issue got resolved with the food, just wish the staff had better manners with the customers.

They didn't read my ticket right food was sitting there getting cold for almost 20 mins and didn't even offer to remake or anything and all lady said was sorry about that . Not very happy standing there for 40 mins for my food just to find out it was sitting for 20 of that

Garlic butter burger was pretty good. The other guys got the other two kinds of butter burgers and they said they were very good too! Reeces peanut butter shake was much fancier than I expected!
Parking: Lots of parking behind the building.
Wheelchair accessibility: Quite a few spots right up close to the building

Fairly disappointed for all the hype I have heard. Ordered my food through doordash which I have occasionally and I have the understand that food won't be as hot and fresh as dining in, unfortunately that wasn't the issue, I had ordered two burgers, one with fried pickles and the other with sweet potato fries and then a side order of onion rings. Everything that was fried had an absolute horrid taste of oil that is far over due to be changed out. You could smell the scent lingering on the food. It was very disheartening. And for the burgers, they were bland and lacked seasoning. I am very disappointed of the quality of the food I received.

Service was a bit slow. Busy. Short handed. A tray of food was dropped. Honestly don't blame staff too much. Honest mistakes. Especially when running in a thousand directions. Pot roast was very tough. Atmosphere was ok.
