“From the moment we walked in, we knew it was the perfect place to celebrate our big day. The space is absolutely beautiful—modern, elegant, and welcoming. But what really made it special was the incredible team behind it all. The staff -especially Melissa-at The Hotel at Kirkwood went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They were organized, responsive, and genuinely kind throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, everything was flawless—from the setup to the food to the flow of the evening. Our guests were raving about the venue, and we felt so supported every step of the way. If you're looking for a wedding location that combines style, comfort, and top-notch service, we can't recommend The Hotel at Kirkwood enough!”

Pubs • $$
“Absolutely phenomenal drinks and service. The owner served us and made us the most delicious drinks. I haven't traditionally been a huge fan of the drinks they gave us but the way they made them changed my mind and now I can never have them any other way. The old fashioned, espresso martini, and chocolate orange martini were so good. There was a gentleman selling plants and vinyls also who was super friendly and played great music.
Definitely my new favorite place. Very clean, wonderful cozy environment and the owner was a blast to be around.”

We Live in Waterloo so this is our treat when we come to Cedar Rapids. The service here is always fantastic! The food is so good and you get nice size portions, for me they are actually huge because I don't eat much. The rolls are to die for and I personally love their salads. I like the small croutons they use, so much easier to eat. I actually think they would do much more business if they had their own stand a lone restaurant.”

“It's an Olive Garden, so you know what you're going to get in terms of food/menu when you walk in the door. What set apart our experience tonight was how well the staff accommodated our family with small children. There were high chairs and coloring menus in place for the tykes before we reached the table. Our server, Ashton, was understanding of our fidgety, noisy crew, and made sure we had extra forks and crayons. When another chocolate milk was needed, he was prompt with it so none of the kids went without for long. This was not our first time having a positive experience as a family outing here and I saw several other families having a good time. Tonight's stuck out well enough to write about.”

“Almost Famous in Newbo has never disappointed, but my experience today far exceeded anything I could have imagined! I went in with a very specific need--9 bags of the Crunch Berry popcorn mix. I'm attending a conference next week and need to bring a snack that represents where I live. Almost Famous is my go-to and popcorn is much easier to travel with than a case of Busch Light and Casey's pizza! There were no mini bags and no Crunch Berry on hand. The sweet gal working the counter helped me brainstorm alternatives, then suggested I talk to the owner who happened to be there. He said he has some at their production facility a few minutes away if I had time to follow him over there. He took time out of his weekend to help me out AND sent me with a few extra bags for my kids! I'm so thankful for the awesome small businesses and business owners in this community! Go getcha some popcorn!!!”

“I was waiting for my car to be ready for pickup at a friend’s mechanic shop and I walked into SuYu Pei on 16th Ave SW for lunch at 1:15 today (Thursday) and was greeted immediately and told I could sit wherever I’d like. Not even 20 seconds later my waiter, Leo, showed up and told me about the lunch specials: For $10, you can choose from a large list of lunch items, each including an entree, side of rice, and a cheese Rangoon! He could tell I was stuck with all of the choices so he asked me what kinds of things I normally liked and recommended his favorite dish, so that’s what I chose. I ordered the Sichuan with chicken, but you can also order it with beef, shrimp or tofu. I’m not lying when I say the food came out, piping hot, in about three minutes. Anyone who knows me knows I love sauce. I didn’t have to get any extra sauce for this bad boy, it was sauuuuucy! 😍 The white rice was nice and sticky, the way it’s supposed to be, and the cheese Rangoon was crispy on the edges and soft and all the way filled in the middle. Leo was so knowledgeable about the menu and fun to talk to, not to mention quick at noticing and asking for refills or if I needed anything else. I even found out that we knew a lot of the same people and we talked and laughed about that fact for a few minutes. After he brought me a box for the rest of my food, I told him my car was getting worked on at a shop nearby so I might sit a while longer if that was ok, and he looked concerned and told me the area wasn’t super great for walking and asked me if I needed a ride back to the shop! Talk about customer service! I’m currently still sitting in the booth at SuYu Pei, but if I didn’t want to be, I could be in and out in 20 minutes easily. With the amazing customer service, super tasty food, and quick delivery times, If you’re looking for somewhere to stop on your lunch break, this is definitely the place!”

“First time at Cheddar’s and I have to say, they did a fine job with the food.
I never expected a restaurant to serve complimentary croissants to customers. Those croissants were light and flaky, excellent quality overall. I didn’t expect the sweet glaze on them; I thought it was okay but felt the croissants would be better without them (I usually prefer my croissants savory).
My order of bourbon glazed salmon and shrimp was delicious. The salmon was cooked just right, flaky and tender, not dry at all. The shrimp were tasty too, nice and plump.
As for the sides, I enjoyed the red beans and rice. I thought the dish had a good amount of salt. The pork helped amplify the dish too. The broccoli cheese casserole was pretty good; not too cheesy and fairly tender broccoli. I just wish that dish was hotter. It felt a bit lukewarm.
Our waitress was very nice and attentive. She did an excellent job helping us with our food.
Overall, I’ll definitely keep Cheddar’s on my list of restaurants to revisit. With food and customer service this good, they more than earned my respect.”

“Was at the Cedar Rapids location and I honestly wasn't a fan of my food. The service manager was AMAZING and noticed that I didn't really eat my food and kindly credited my meal off our ticket.”

“There is so much to love about Anh’s! I have a major sweet tooth and nothing found in big chain stores compares to her baked goods. She makes it super easy to see her menu for the day on FB and IG, and even takes orders over messenger so I can pick up later in the day without worrying something will be sold out. I have to shout out the front staff too, they’re always so kind and welcoming! My favorite treats so far: Korean cream cheese bun, cinnamon roll, cowboy cookies, and extra delicious pistachio cream bun. Also, try the shokupan!”

“AWESOME PIZZA!!!! Crust is flavorful, large slices, sausage with penne was phenominal. Ravioli has some spiciness to it but is DELICIOUS! We will be back!”

“The cake was extremely fancy for a birthday party, but that was the point! My partner and I have been looking for potential cakes for future events, and KC Cakes & Cajun has been on our list for some time. So, we got a layered marble cake with the full Minecraft theme for our son's birthday party to try it out, and goodness, it didn't disappoint! Check out the chocolate in the marbling!!! The kids and adults were very pleased, and we had a great celebration! We sent KC Cakes & Cajun a picture of our son's birthday invite for inspiration for the cake's design, and they nailed it! The cake was dense but moist and full of flavor, and the icing was to die for - sweet but not too sweet! We got the 10in layered round cake for about ten people, and with the layering, everyone felt full with a single piece - to give you an idea of size. If you need a cake that can't be beat, especially for a special occasion or event, they'll get you squared away! They are at a new location downtown at 210 3rd Ave, by the Paramount!”

“We tried a traditional beignet and a glazed one. Cooked to order. Light, fluffy deliciousness ! The glazed one had a sweet and yummy almond glaze. Will be back to try some more items including the caramel cake.”

“Love this place! A drink for anyone and everyone. Coffee is amazing and inexpensive compared to $tarbux and I love their 7energy as well with all the flavor combos. Their cold foam is also delicious! Didn’t take me long to get a free drink either with their point system”
“Went here for my wife’s birthday and it was absolutely perfect. Every single thing was amazing.”
