“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!“

“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!“

“Stopped at Brewhemia for the first time today and it was wonderful! Met one of my late father’s friends there who hasn’t seen me since I was a couple days old, so we were catching up talking about our memories of my dad. I was so engrossed in conversation that I hadn’t realized they had closed almost 40 minutes prior. No one came over to rush us out, but I apologized as they offered me a to-go cup for my drink and they graciously told us it wasn’t a problem. We then sat outside on the patio for another hour in the shade finishing up our coffee. Thank you so much for giving us space while we talked about some pretty heavy things along with our wonderful memories. It truly means a lot to me as I cherish every moment I get to talk about my father, especially with those who cared about and love him almost as much as I do. ♥️ I will certainly be suggesting this place to everyone, but I promise to remind them of the closing time so they don’t overstay their welcome like we did. 😅“

“We had hamburgers pizza it tasted like a burger 😋 and crab Rangoon pizza both were fantastic 😍. I definitely recommend these choices. We played lots of games including mortal combat and pac man. Never knew how many arcade games came out. Love this place when we come into cedar rapids.“

“Love 30 hop! Always a great spot for either big groups or date night. Fabulous cocktails and Apps 😊“

“Went to Cruz’s for the first time for Mother’s Day brunch with my kiddo- food was amazing (we both cleared our plates!) and service was awesome! Will definitely be back!!“

“The chicken salad sandwich is the best I have ever had. Everyone who has tried it, loves it and talks about it.“

“Simplemente me encantó!!! Es como si hubiera comido tacos realmente de México... Y eso es muy difícil de encontrar en USA! Todo muy bien... 100% recomendado! Seguro en mis próximas vacaciones regresaré sin dudarlo.“

“We’ve been thrilled with the food and service at Casa Las Glorias for many years. Lunch today was just another excellent experiment. Prompt and courteous service. Food was prepared quickly with the same amazing standards. Chimichangas, for example, are crisp when served with white sauce on them. We’ve had most of the menu items the years. All excellent.“

“My food was amazing! It’s a night where there an event but our staff member let us know if there was ever going to be a delay. This place got packed almost 20 minutes after our arrival so I’m glad I came before the rush!“

“I am guilty of being one of those procrastinators that see Capriotti's near Best Buy here in Cedar Rapids every time I drive by and keep driving. I kept telling myself that I was going to stop in one day. Well, I didn't stop in today, BUT I did order online for delivery. I have some contractors working on my home at this time. Last week they went to Capriotti's for lunch. I asked them how they liked it and they gave a good review. Then, today, I saw a review online and they were raving about the Hot Bobbie (which is the sandwich I have been wanting to try). I ordered the Hot Bobbie and I was very pleased. It is delicious! I ordered a side of turkey gravy and it was the "icing on the cake". If you are like me and are still procrastinating, please don't. I honestly believe you will not be disappointed. Very good & I highly recommend.“

“When I moved here I was sad because I was leaving behind my favorite New York pizza place. After Cappy's, I'm no longer sad. I can say this is the best New York pizza I've ever had. Their Chicago crust is also nice and buttery.“

“Taj Mahal is the Be all, End all of Indian food in Cedar Rapids. We have ordered from there for years and regardless of pickup or delivery (we even used to eat on location when dining was still available), their food never disappoints! Portion sizes are huge, flavor is unique and mind-blowing, aromas take you to another world. Don't miss out on this delicious flavor adventure. Samosas, Dosa, Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, Garlic Naan and Paneer Masala.....drool worthy!“

“probably the best tacos in cedar rapids Iowa..... these taco shells were reminded me of Southern California they are made fresh and you can tell it's not your typical taco shell I had the beef taco and the chicken taco the pico de gallo was off the chart the margarita was awesome I highly recommend this one in Cedar Rapids pretty authentic“

“This was my 1st time at the Cedar Rapids (Edgewood Road) Panera Bread. It was clean, I liked the kiosk (yes, it's been a while since I have been to Panera Bread).
My son works nearby so he could get lunch and go back to work.
The only thing the store needed was a working 'fireplace'. It's in the middle of the room but not functional (it's electric). The fireplace would add some atmosphere to the restaurant.“

“Friendly atmosphere, the employees were respectful and courteous. Ordered the bacon turkey brovo. A smash hit for my hunger spot. Good sandwich for the price if you dont mind spending an extra dollar. Parking lot had its spaces, but front row your not getting a spot unless you're handicapped or doordash. Great seating area, and clean, especially for the amount of traffic coming and going.“
