Kieran (I hope I’m spelling that right) at the bar was so gracious and attentive. The deviled eggs were perfection. Great atmosphere, service and food.Will definitely be back.

Great service and atmosphere for a relaxing night. Menu was hard to make a good choice without getting too pricey. I had the Cubano and it was good. Would go again for drinks and maybe for a celebration dinner.

Appetizers were better than main entrees. Food was decent, small portions. Definitely overpriced for the quantity you get.Service was good.

This is a complex review to write. I love the atmosphere of Tribute. I love the lighting and the all-around setup of the place. It's fun to dive deeper into the food and service. That's when things get a little dicey. Unfortunately, I've never had good service when I have gone to tribute. I have been back multiple times with large groups of friends and with small groups of friends. The servers are charming, but the food is either very late or something is missing from the order. I know the servers are not to blame when food takes a long time due to many people in the restaurant or the kitchen being backed up. It was just recently that we went in for something quick to eat. We had ordered a salad and soup, and there were only around five other people in the restaurant eating at the time. And it took close to 40 minutes to get our food. And even then, there was something missing from the order. The food has also always been a mess for me. After the many times that I have been there for brunch, lunch, and dinner, the food consistently has been disappointing. I think their brunch menu is not very good, and one of the appeals is the Mimosa Towers, which are fun. I don't think I'll be back for a while.

I recently dined at Tribute Eatery & Bar. The service was standard. The lively atmosphere added to the overall dining experience. Although I found the seared tuna salad to be enjoyable, healthy, and light, I must note that the portion size of the tuna was smaller than expected. As for the General Tso's broccoli, it wasn't exactly to my taste. I had the Violette Squeeze drink, which I generally enjoyed.

I think about Tribute’s food constantly. Not only is the menu just delicious, but the environment is amazing. I’ve never had bad service. Everyone looks like they love their job there and it makes the experience amazing! If you’re thinking about Tribute, don’t miss out. Their brunch menu is my favorite!
My wife usually stop overnight in Iowa City while traveling back and forth from Omaha and Champaign. We normally eat at 30Hop but for reason was closed the 19th Of Feb. So we tried Tribute. Terrible service and we waited over 40 mins for our meal. The restaurant wasn't busy with maybe 10 patrons with us being last table for food. Waitress told us the delay was due our French Fries. We spent over $60 for Cubano sandwich w Macaroni plus chicken. No alcohol. We will never again and will not recommend

Friday February 16 around 7:30,First time to Tribute ..it was busy so we opted for bar service. We sat there for a good 7 min with no service. We see 4 people at the end of the bar..yes working cleaning dishes &but a couple looked down but still no acknowledgement or to tell a server there are customers. When a server did come down,there was no Hi,welcome,no name given, just what can I get you. .. no menu recommendations in hearing we are new here. The food it's self was bland..we both got the French dip and no flavor to the sandwich or even the au jus. We both work restaurants so these are things that stick out to us..usually not a big deal but sitting there with no service with people seeing us waiting set a wrong tone. I'm sure things are great otherwise,it just wasn't then

All their food is good, but I would go back again and again for these deviled eggs. Best I've ever had. I could just order 5 of these for a meal. The service is great and I always enjoy going. Be sure to get a reservation though as they are always busy!
