I wish I would have taken more photos but the food was so good our family couldn’t think to take photos. My mom wanted to eat at HoQ Resturant for her 40th wedding anniversary and wanted the whole family with them to celebrate. Little back story my mom sells vegetables to the owner that he uses in his dishes. 90% or more of the ingredients are locally sourced in Iowa. Farm to table concept. We started withh naan bread the brought out and a little bit of I think pasta with beets....read full review

Went last night for their 11th anniversary menu and wine pairing. Elegantly done with outstanding service. Best soup and naan I’ve had anywhere. Amazing date spot. The staff was beyond friendly.
