Amazing food and absolutely fantastic with celiac and cross contamination! Tons of gluten free options and always delicious. I seriously wish they were open 7 days a week so we could go more often! 10/10 best food in Cedar Falls.

Clint does such an amazing job with every dish!! We love that we get to try something new with every visit. We had the secret menu Labneh dip with Pita bread and the Cajun Mac & Cheese. The Lamb Poutine (not pictured) was fantastic too. Different than your usual pub, and more savory too! 🤤 We appreciate the fresh flavors and healthier options when going out to eat. Follow their Facebook to see their ever changing menu!

Obsessed is an understatement. My partner and I are HUGE fans of Concept Kitchen. We have to share every plate we order because everything on the menu is incredible. We love the rotating menu and the owners are very friendly & check in on their guests frequently. You can tell there is a lot of thought, precision, and pure craftsmanship behind every ingredient. If you’re a foodie and looking for an experience, this is the place to go in the Cedar Valley!

Unique and amazing food inspired by recipes all over the world. You don't have a dining experience like this anywhere in the Cedar Valley.

We got the snapper and Mediterranean poutine and both tasted great and had awesome presentation on the plate. Attached pictures below.

Absolutely amazing food! Tried the crab rice, ramen, green chili Mac and cheese and Cajun shrimp tacos! Every dish was spot on!!!! Can’t say enough good things about our experience! If you haven’t tried this place you are really missing out!

Clint and Jennifer are absolute rockstars! I've been lucky enough to have their food at Second State as well as have them cater my wedding and I really couldn't have asked for a better experience. We knew the food for our wedding was important, and we didn't want the typical wedding fare, plus we had a number of dietary restrictions to work around. Clint and Jenn were able to come up with something memorable and delicious that fit all of our needs and really felt personal and was loved by our 270 some guests. They're not only really passionate about their food, but really committed to using locally sourced ingredients presented in ways you won't everyday in northeast Iowa. Not only are they spectacular chefs, but they're really lovely people as well, they were completely down to earth and put a lot of thought into our event and communication with us. They were able to answer all of my questions ahead of time and day of was really seamless. Whether you're looking for a good bite in downtown Cedar Falls, or catering that will be sure to stand out from the crowd and really make your event stand out, Concept Kitchen is 100% the way to go. We cannot thank them enough!

We had an amazing lunch! Loved talking to the chef about what goes into their amazing food. Definitely worth the stop. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic food and great service. Will be back.

This was beyond our expectations for a Cedar Falls restaurant. The flavor was more like something you'd find in New York or LA. The chef we spoke to was kind, and he went out of his way to make sure we knew everything about our dishes, giving us the background of the food. Real first-class service!
Just moved to the area and tried this spot out on Saturday night prior to attending a concert at the amphitheater across the street. The menu was interesting, the food was excellent, and the service (both while ordering and the server finding us on a crowded patio) was spot on.

Travelling through town for work and I always like to scout out new, unique, and quality food that you just can’t find anywhere. The reviews of this place did not lead me astray. To be frank, I was blown away by the hospitality, the atmosphere, and the depth and development of flavour. I never knew I’d be in Cedar Falls for an evening, but I know the next time I’m passing through the area I will be sure to come through and return here. Concept Kitchen CF is a place that I will absolutely recommend to everyone and will make the trip here to experience the cuisine again. Thank you for a meal that was so special and I can’t wait to see what you have the next time. I travel so many places and rarely find such a wonderful experience, I cannot recommend this place anymore to everyone who appreciates food made with love and passion.

Highly recommend. We drove from Fort Dodge because I'd been eyeing their GF menus for weeks. I was not disappointed with the queso chorizo fries, and either of our tacos.
