“Huge selection of delicious food. Lovely presentation of our meals. Service was excellent!“

“Could live off of the queso pupusas and curtido. SO good!“

“Bad picture because I annihilated this food. I always get the Paneer Pakora appetizer and dump it on the Paneer Tikka Masala. Brandon gets Lamb Vindaloo. And garlic naan. You will not regret eating here or ordering. Excellent service too.“

“Scratch Cupcakery is absolutely amazing! I've been here several times, and I'm never disappointed. Their cupcakes are always fresh, moist, and packed with flavor. Today I tried the Snickerdoodle Cookie Cupcake, and it was one of the best cupcakes I've ever had. It had the perfect balance of cinnamon and sweetness, and the frosting was incredible. If I had bought a dozen, they probably would've been gone before I even left the store! The staff is always friendly, and the shop has a fun, welcoming atmosphere. If you're looking for high-quality cupcakes that taste homemade, Scratch Cupcakery is a must-visit. I can't wait to come back and try more flavors!“

“Most individuals would like to try a healthy sandwich that tastes good, with fresh veggies then why not go to the drive thru and order the toasted caprese focaccia with an array of fresh veggies, tomatoes, mozzarella and arugula with a tasty balsamic sauce. Simply delicious and reasonably priced. You just might order this super healthy sandwich again because of its unique flavor.“

“My daughter and I are huge fans of Panera! It’s the one place we can always agree on. The 1/2 and 1/2 deal is our absolute favorite—it’s such a smart way to get a balanced meal. The food at this location is always fresh, and we love how easy it is to grab a great lunch even when we're on the go. Always a 5-star experience for us!“

“BEST. PIZZA. EVER.🤤🫶🏻 Great atmosphere & the bar tenders/staff were phenomenal. Very friendly and accommodating. While I was there with friends, a minor “incident” occurred with a very disgruntled customer from out of town. As I witnessed in horror the absolute, negative, childlike behavior of the “out of towner”, I was quite impressed with how well the manager and staff handled the immature adult. Even after she made the poor manager cry. I personally give the restaurant 15/10 stars!! I will most DEFINITELY be back! Along with my family and friends!!“

“The tunes are fresh and wild.“

“Best Cuban Sandwich I’ve ever had! Horchata is amazing and the atmosphere is warm and inviting! I love this place!!“

“Place was busy, but never felt crowded. John, our server, was terrific. Answered questions and opened my drink when I got confused. (New soda drink...) Food was wonderful and slightly different from the way my usual favorites are prepared. We will be back again soon.“

“Friendly/attentive staff and the food is always top notch!“

“I am a celiac and was pleasantly surprised that they have a whole gluten-free menu with lots of options! One of the servers said that she is a celiac, too. That was cool.
The only thing that made me nervous was the wooden cutting boards they served my gluten free food on. Not sure how they clean them, or if they keep them separate from gluten serving boards, but I know we should mistrust all wooden utensils due to their absorbency. These had obvious cut marks on them and everything.
Happily though, I didn't feel and signs of being glutened. With major gluten ingestions I definitely feel symptoms, and I had none to report here. Hopefully that bodes well.

Dietary restrictions: Celiacs may want to be wary but I think that, pending confirmation about their serving boards, this should be safe. I did not experience symptoms of having gotten glutened, at least. The food was delicious.“

“We tried this Restaurant out for the first time this last Saturday. We did call and get reservation earlier that week though due to UofI graduations. We ordered seven different items off their menu. I have to tell you, they were all great. The farmhouse salad, the Burrata, the pizzas and my favorite, the Seven-Layer Lasagna Bolognese! Well done Maggie’s! A+++++“

“***UPDATE***
The garden pasta with fettuccine noodles instead of spaghetti noodles is amazing!
Also, it was finally comfy enough to sit outside for supper this evening!
Can't give higher than the 5 🌟 but if I could, I certainly would!
This restaurant never fails to get it right!
Butternut Squash Ravioli -- MUST HAVE! I tried it on my first visit to Iowa City in 2019 and was hooked. Went back for the first time since, ordered it again, and they knocked it out of the park! It is so good, so creamy and nutty, with just the right amount of mushroom ratio!“

“I had my second visit today for lunch and I was pleasantly impressed even over my high expectations from my first visit. this will be a main stop any time I am in town. I forgot the bartenders name but he was working at 230 pm on Feb 24th. absolutely fantastic service“

“I'm gluten intolerant so I ordered the tomato bisque rather than the chips with my sandwich. The waiter heard me tell my friend why I was ordering the soup and checked to make sure I would be able to eat both the sandwich and the soup. He went above and beyond to cater to my needs. Our lunch was good and his entire demeanor and attitude were very pleasant. Worth stopping here since we were only in town for a doctor's visit at the hospital.“

“Me: The Nutella smores My roommate: anything peanut butter 10/10“

“I had the U-The-Chef omelette. I like that they offer egg whites as a substitute for whole eggs. I am vegetarian and noticed that you can get a vegetarian patty as a substitute for ground beef patties. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We will be back!“

“First time here, AMAZING food and service! Missouri to Reds Alehouse“

“This place was AWESOME! The shredded pork sandwich was delicious and reasonably priced. Fries were fresh and tasty. The guy taking the order was friendly and enthusiastic. And no surcharge on payments—the price on the menu is the actual price! I can’t wait to go back today. The music was a bit loud for my taste so conversation was a bit difficult.“

“After a long day in the sun, went for a drink and had the best waitress around. The sun makes me grumpy but Ms. Hannah's bubbly spirit and kindness was just what I needed to not finish the day in disaster ❤️ Big Grove, you are lucky to have this little peanut and will be a big reason I return 🍻“

“Oh my gosh we are here for my 25th birthday and the food was *chef kiss* delicious!! From our entrees to my birthday dessert was phenomenal and I can’t wait to eat here again!! Everything was very well seasoned and so fresh!“

“My friends and I ate at I love FuFu last Wednesday night and it was AMAZING! It was the first time we had been there and our server was so helpful and knowledgeable about what to order, what things tasted like, spice levels. Everything was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be returning! This is Quad Cities GEM!!! Go! You won’t be disappointed!!! ✌️💕“

“Tina, the owner is absolutely amazing at what she does! All of her recipes are extremely healthy and taste incredible! I go several days a week! Highly recommend!“

“Food is delicious and the staff is the best. Only the second time there and they remembered us. Their was also a power outage that knocked out the entire street. They did great under pressure!!!! If you haven’t tried it you must. Even the 10 year old tries something new and loved it“

“Always great pizza, every time. Long time customer (decades by now) !“

“The Slammin’ Salmon omelette was awesome!“

“Wow great sandwiches in such a hidden spot! Brian gave particularly wonderful service and I felt very taken care of by the warm friendly staff and amazing sandwiches. As a St Louis resident with a great sandwich scene I can say the recommendation was well worth going out of my way for!“

“Great Food,Service,Cleanliness and Outdoor Seating,FirePlace,and Decorative Huts!“

“Ate here for the first time before attending an Iowa basketball game nearby. There were good choices on the menu. I had the spicey Italian meatball grinder with fries. It was good and very filling. Prices seemed reasonable. The place was noisy so it was hard to socialize with my friends. Otherwise, a good place to eat and would go there again if in town.“

“Delicious food. There needs to be some education of staff on ADA allowances for service dogs. They tried to tell my husband his SD was not allowed. They are right down the road from the VA hospital, I can’t imagine this is the first time they’ve seen one?!“

“Delicious & authentic Chinese food. Friendly staff & manager kindly helped with my high maintenance order. Food was ready right on time. Clean restaurant with a very impressive (large) menu. Will definitely be back.“

“Found this place looking for a healthy menu while we were driving past Iowa City to Chicago. So glad we made the stop. Great location to see the University and enjoy some great food. I had the Açaí bowl and it was amazing, my husband had the turkey wrap which was a healthy choice for him 😊. The staff was super pleasant. Would definitely make this a stop if in Iowa City or just driving through. Love small businesses ❤️“

“their chicken bacon ranch pizza is fantastic!“

“First time ordering from here and I will continue to do so. The chicken schwarma was amazing and the falafel was too.“

“Taco pizza pleaseeeeeeeee“

“This place was surprisingly good. The chicken melt was amazing and the bread was crispy. The adjacent coffee shop has a variety of lattes and the vibes are great to hang out as well as do work at. Would totally come back to this place. The current photos of the food do not do it justice.“

“My husband and I enjoyed the food and the atmosphere...and I thought the fresh-squeezed lemonade was the best! My husband had breakfast for dinner...all good. I chose the meatloaf which was such a generous portion that I could only finish half of it. It was the best meatloaf I've had in a restaurant. We've been here a few times before and purposely chose to dine here during our short trip to Iowa City. It did not disappoint!“

“My granddaughter asked us to take her to her new favorite restaurant.
We now understand why she wanted to travel an hour to Iowa City to eat.
Great service.
We all ordered something different and no one was disappointed.
The appetizers were very good.
My husband is very critical and even he was pleasantly surprised.
Cost was appropriate for the wonderful food.
WOULD RECOMMEND YOU GIVE THEM A TRY.“

“Iowa is the last place I’d expect to find good Indian food tbh. Place was recommended by The Iowa Gallivant, and did not disappoint. Got the lamb vindaloo and garlic naan and was very satisfied. Some of the best vindaloo and naan I’ve ever had, hands down. 10/10 recommend!“

“The flavors here are so authentic, it feels like a culinary journey through India. Every dish is bursting with spices and richness! I love when waiters/staff talk to each other in their native language, adds more flavor to the experience.“

“Tammie must be lying,,cause if anyone knows the owner he's not taking a meal off anyone's tickets without a lengthy debate..let alone pay someone for.good google reviews..I suppose that if I went to a restaurant where I was poisoned with rotten food, with visible mold and msg pouring out of it. I WOULD SPEND LESS TIME MAKING NOTES ABOUT THIS HORRIBLE THING THAT IS HAPPENING TO YOU..and probably ask to speak to someone Manager ..owner...doctor or nurse after all this diarrhea..your fingers work great though...Very credibel hands mamm.“

“I tried the grilled cheese sandwich and it was the best grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had. 5 STARS!!“
