“IMO they serve the best Tenderloin in Benton County, and even better than the T-Loin at Joensy's Restaurant in Center Point, IA (Linn County) that specializes in T-Loins. You don't expect to find food like this in a Bar & grill!!! An awesome find and the best part is that it's right here in Belle Plaine, IA!”
“They are always bring on different types of beer and quick to give a sample before you buy. The pizza is phenomenal and we love going there on a regular basis. Another bonus is filling up the growlers to take some goodness home.”
“Cool little small town bar with a cool vibe. Bartenders take really good care of you. There is not a lot of room to move around. It's a very small venue. Don't expect a super clean, updated bar. The barstools have duct tape on them. Stop in and grab a Busch latte. The bar has a couple of tv's on the wall to watch the game.”
“The food and customer service was some of the best I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant. This place has a really good small town restaurant atmosphere. Just overall a great experience!!”
“Leo opened this restaurant after already having GREAT SUCCESS with his Toledo, IA location. He has been a long time family friend with great taste in food and drinks as well with atmosphere and customer service. This is a great place to eat and relax. My family and I come here OFTEN. Leo even sends people my way here in Keystone to help out with business here at the Keystone Turner Hall.”
“The food and servers were excellent! I always eat breakfast here. You can never go wrong with any of their breakfast items, all are tasty and priced appropriately .”
“Clean place. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.Vegetarian options: Don't want meat, that's OK. Load up on the fresh veggies!Kid-friendliness: They do make small sandwiches and have kid sized side items.Parking: 20+ spots available as it has it's own parking lot and it's next to a bank that has 20+ spots, too.Wheelchair accessibility: There are handicapped parking spaces available right close to the door. Not sure about a hydraulic handicapped opener. Maybe something to look into.”
“This place is a "can't miss" if you are anywhere close. I love the atmosphere, there's a small section of gift items to check out, and most importantly the bakery items are to die for!!”
“We stopped at Big R’s Bar and Grill in Elberon tonight for sandwich and a drink! Wow great food! Nice to see my old friend Ron Franzen from my Cresco days and his wife Rynonda! Holiday Lake, Waterloo, Protivin and Cresco friends you need to road trip down here! I’ve heard the prime rib and steaks are fabulous! We will be back!”
“Stopped for the first time during an ATV ride with friends. Very nice laid back place to meet local people that are friendly. Just had a few beers, but the food looked tasty. They even have a bowling alley and large meeting room.”
“The perfect roadhouse bar with good - typical- bar food and just great local flavor, and the historical pics on the walls add to that. A fun place and good joint to stop by!”
“Tried the pizza for the first time had the pickle wrap and a half pepperoni and half cheese for the kids. We all enjoyed it. My youngest would have ate all of the cheese side if I would have let her. Will be going back to try the crab raggon pizza.”
