Restaurants in Clinton

“We were in town for the Fly Iowa airshow and always try to find local places to stop at. We were not disappointed at all. Their breakfast was perfectly cooked to order and exactly what we needed before our busy day at the airport. The staff was attentive and personable, just made our day. Great ambassadors for Clinton, Iowa!”

“Best food in town!!! 💛 highly recommend”

“Amazing food! Great place to eat or take out!”

“Love this restaurant! So many options to order from off the menu. the staff and owners are so nice and have the best service provided! The food is so good my favorite is the hibachi!!! 100% recommend!”

“Yesterday, my husband and I tried El Toro in Clinton. I have long since just enjoyed Mexican for what it is usually is outside of the western states, Tex mex. I was raised by a nana who made a fresh pot of frijoles weekly, that she usually had me wash for her, and roasted her chiles on the comal for her salsa until the smoke cleared the room. Every time she’d see me “Queres comer mija?” and you never told nana no. I had beans & eggs with verde salsa and fresh tortillas with her countless times. I have never found anything similar to her beans in any state I’ve been to, until yesterday. The beans is always my test, that and the tamales. I judge tamales to be like my Tias, who would make them all day from scratch; the only reicipe I follow myself. Everything, minus the salsa, was perfect. The music had me genuinely dancing in my seat, the food made me want to order seconds, and to add a plus, Jesse found the queso he loves so much from his hometown. The service was great and personable, we had several fun conversations with the staff. I can’t recommend it enough and I look forward to returning. It felt a lot like home. Thank you from this second generation Mexican American family, you made our day.”

“Excellent food and service!”

“Always amazing food. They were busy today and it took a little bit to get our order but we had a big order. The food spot on. Highly recommend the Pork Carnitas Mac. My son says the Mac and cheese bacon dog was even better cause it had real bacon and not bacon bits. If you are out and about stop by and try their amazing food and the shockerz drinks are amazing well”

“Best coffee stop ever + Deanna is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Many years ago, I was going through a really hard time. Grieving. Out of the blue, she gave me a card with a gift card inside. She had no idea how much I needed something to look forward to, but that little act of kindness gave me hope when I needed it most. Deanna and her kindness left a mark on my life I’ll never forget. 🫡”

“I love this shop. I recommend the dip mixes and specialty drinks made by Leondae. He so friendly every time we come to the shop.”

“393 Cafe in Clinton, Iowa, has been a game-changer for me. Their healthy food choices are unbeatable, and the power bowls? Simply top-notch. It’s rare to find a spot that makes eating well both easy and delicious. Been loving their offerings and can’t recommend them enough!”

“The last 2 times I have been sick, my partner has picked up Homer’s chicken noodle soup to make me feel better. I love making homemade chicken noodle soup for when he feels bad, but when I don’t have the energy to make it for myself you are the go to!! Sandwiches are also delicious, but the chicken noodle soup is where it’s at!!!”

“Got my brew at Deanna’s this morning. Great way tos tart the day!”

“Food and service was nice. View was amazing. I was charged $3.99 for two children’s water drinks”

“This location always makes the best cold brew, and my daughter always loves getting a chocolate chip cookie “not warmed up” that’s the size of her head! ❤️”

“Best bar tacos I have ever had. Ordered through DoorDash, I’m new to the area so I was looking for good comfort food and OMG! 3 fried beef tacos. I ate them so fast I couldn’t take a picture they were so good 😂😂🫶🏼 I’ll be trying more items on their menu.”

“To begin with, I was celebrating my birthday with my kids and I wanted to go someplace I hadn't been to before. The owner was very nice and the food was delicious. My kids mentioned it was my birthday earlier in the week, so at the end of our meal I was served a wonderful dessert with a candle and people sang Happy Birthday to me and I got to blow out the candle. Then she did a silly trick and put whipped cream on my face. We laughed so hard. It was so fun. Thank you Gloria for the wonderful food and evening!
I will definitely be coming back here.”

“The service is very good, the place is clean, the toilets are clean, the sound of music does not hurt my ears, ample parking, space available for wheeled curation.Thank's a lot”

“We stopped in for donuts on Saturday and they were delicious!”

“First started going to Almont as a kid in the 90s, so many good memories. Hadnt been inside for years until recently. The burgers are freakn awesome, best burger around!!!”

“Very impressed with the quality of their food, flavor was amazing The only issue I had was finding them open just tried to call and got no answer, looks closed to me but it says on website they are open,”

“We stopped here on the birthday party bus. Regulars seemed put out that we came in. One of the two bartenders was very helpful and friendly. The drinks were good and reasonably priced. Live music too which was cool.”

“I Absolutely love this place. My Son and I have Breakfast here quite often. Great food and great service. Prices are very reasonable.

Parking: There is more parking in the back.”

“This bar is a gem in the heart of the Midwest, conveniently located for both locals and visitors. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is friendly, making it a great spot for a night out. The selection of drinks is impressive, and the food menu has some fantastic options. However, the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that when I ordered a soda, the water had a slightly odd smell, which was a bit off-putting. Overall, it's a solid choice for a snack while passing thru the town, but they might want to check on that water issue.”

“100 % always ! Deanna’s is great !”

“great people, great time, amazing place!”

“Finally got a load back to the area. Friendly staff. The wait wasn't long at all. You can dine in or carry out. Just around the wall is a sitting area. They brought my food out to me. Not sure if that's the norm but, I appreciated it. I ordered the Double Cheese Burger with bacon & Wedges. Everything tasted fresh and juicy. I couldn't finish all my burger but I tried.. lol”

“I'd recommend anyone to go try Mexibro Mexican Grill. I traveled 500 miles to get their food & my man Elis hooked us up. The food was great, serving size was perfect & the service is top notch. Thank you Elis & Mexibro staff for always coming through. 5 stars in my eyes.”

“This Jersey Mike's was excellent, as anticipated. Fresh cuts of meat, fresh bread, etc. The crew in here was very friendly as well. We love Jersey Mike's.”

“Great service and great people!”

“Literally some of the sweetest, coolest people I've ever met. I get this religiously every week now and always receive the best service. So grateful for their kindness.

Vegetarian options: Veggie sub”

“Fun, respectful, delicious!

We enjoyed the nachos (fantastic!) and wings - Ray's Boom Boom sauce has a good flavor, but the Kickin' Bourbon is the bomb!!

Bartenders love what they do - loved the service!!”

“Stopped in around 3:30. Slow time for them. Ordered Tea, and Ceasor Salad. It was pretty good. They did not come back to refill our drinks. So I held my glass up and the bar tender came over. But a different waitress brought my drink over.”

“burger”

“Love the small town bar feel of the silver dollar. Hosted my birthday party here with kareoke & it was a blast.”

“I absolutely love it it's amazing great food friendly staff”

“My hotel was next so walked into the Casino because I was bored. Its very small and they only have dice and card tables open on certain days. The place was extremely clean. For a place that still has smoking indoors, they must have an amazing ventilation system because you cant smell it at all.”

“We had my brothers 60 bday party and it was fantastic. We did the pizzas and salad bar. Wonderful waitress. Pizzas so good. Would recommend! Great job you guys!”

“Everything is nice and everyone, but the drive thru needs a little work because people are running over the curb at the end, but besides that it’s awesome”
