The Iron Horse Charitone Reviews
I grew up in Chariton and I’ve been very excited to watch the development of The Charitone and the square over the last several years. This past week, we decided to take a road trip, and Iron Horse at The Charitone was our choice for lunch. Great menu, and our server Nevaeh was wonderful. Our group ordered the tenderloin sandwich, the pastrami Reuben, the House Burger, and the crispy chicken salad. Everything was delicious, drinks were kept filled…very pleasant lunch.

The Iron Horse Charitone offers great food and drinks at a reasonable price point. The menu features a variety of options, including vegan choices. Standout dishes include the salmon, pork quesadillas, and the wonderful tenderloin sandwich. The Onion Rings are "Magnificent," and the Honey Apple Glazed dish is a favorite, though some find it a little tough. The Bayou pasta is really good, and the Captain Morgan rum and coke is excellent. The restaurant also offers a good selection of draft beers and signature burgers. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff making guests feel welcome. Visitors often praise the food, especially the onion rings, tenderloin, and rib eye, noting they are served piping hot and fresh. The location in a renovated historic hotel makes it a hidden gem in Iowa and a great addition to the community. Despite being busy at times, such as during special events like the 4th of July, the staff manages to seat guests promptly and provide quality service.
