4 Best American Restaurants near Dow City

“Since the new owners took over, I've been there 4 times now. Very impressed with the service, staff, and food. The last 2 times have been with my kids. Michael, Jess, Rich, Natasha excellent Service. But Rachel is killing it in the kitchen! Place is usually packed, not long wait time, food is excellent, staff is extremely friendly and service is excellent. If you're 45-60 minutes from Dow City, a must try! The Sirloin is my favorite. Lot of good places in western Iowa, but feel blessed to have this 8 miles from home. Thank you to everyone that works hard to deliver a very pleasant experience at this establishment. Highly recommend!!!“

“We live in southeast Iowa, (Keosauqua), and were returning from vacationing in Canada, and decided to stop in to try the states best tenderloin in 2024, and it did not disappoint! Wonderful, light, crispy, flaky breading, with the tenderloin itself very tasty, and very tender. I have to say, it's the best tenderloin I've ever had. The service however did lack somewhat, as after our food was initially served, the wait staff never returned to check on food quality, or drink refills. Overall, a nice, clean restaurant.“

“always quick, always good, always friendly, and always a Good price!“

“The hamburger soup was just okay, nothing to write home about. However, the roast beef between bread with potatoes all smothered in gravy was absolutely perfect! Exactly what I was needing without realizing it. The waitress was not friendly initially and took forever to take just our drink orders. I think she was overly busy and had a bit too much on her workload but she softened up as our meal finished up. I love these hole in the wall diners, they're always the ones that surprise me the most. Let me tell you, the price for lunch, 2 people, was just a little over $25. You can't find those prices in fast food these days! This is a, not so hidden, gem (right off the main drag) that most everyone can find something comforting to eat with a hometown, diner, old school kind of vibe. Don't just drive on by, stop and see for yourself!“
