Restaurants in Marshalltown

“We did a bulk order of pulled pork for a small gathering, and it was amazing! I'm a newbie to The Flying Elbow, and I definitely will be back!”

“Always have a wonderful experience when eating at Opa! Everything I’ve had on their menu is amazing, recommend this to anyone wanting try to something in in the area!”

“Their flavor is unmatched! Always generous meat portions. It has been a sixty year love affair.”

“We ordered the BBQ pit platter for pickup. It was ready on time, the hot food was hot, the cold food was cold, and it was all delicious! Thank you for making our day wonderful!”

“The food was amazing! The service was fantastic! And the prices were very reasonable! Did I mention the food was amazing?!! This will definitely be our new go to for Mexican cuisine!”

“Awesome sandwiches!!!! Great service!!!!”

“Love this place. The food is beyond great. The staff is wonderful. Even when it’s busy and low on staff they run around and make it happen.”

“great place, atmosphere and the bartender even shared her cookie with me! 35/10 recommend!”

“Great place and always very clean!”

“Food is scrumptious, service is awesome, takeout is convenient. The people are the absolute best. I couldn't be happier to have such a stellar option for vegetarian and vegan food. The cuisine has great variety, and ingredients are always fresh. Alfonso is a force to be reckoned with in all realms! Keep doing all you do! We love you and La Carreta!”

“Excellent service!!! I feel like I am in Mexico.”

“I ordered the jasmine tea, sushi/sashimi platter with miso soup and a spicy yellow fin roll. The sashimi was really good. The sushi rice however tasted like it was not seasoned very much. Instead they just used the starch they didn't finish washing off to stick it together. The miso soup was lacking flavor from the broth. But overall the service was fantastic. They were very polite and the food we ordered came fresh and fast. My wife ordered shrimp lo mein. The noodles were cooked just fine and the seasoning was good. But there was one weird thing. It tasted like they velveted the shrimp. If shrimp is cooked properly, you don't need to velvet them. Remember C is cooked O is overcooked. ? But I would eat there again considering it's hard to find decent sashimi near me. If you're in Marshalltown, give it a try.”

“Superb service! Went beyond our expectations!”

“Food is delicious, especially the black pepper chicken. Service is fantastic, and very attentive. I recommend eating in, if you are able, but the boxes for togo are self filled and paid by weight.”

“Love this place and the food”

“While the outside leaves a bit to be desired, the ice cream MORE than makes up for it. It is absolutely the best in town. The last year they’ve added more new flavors and have such great combinations. We most often do a mixed quart of the daily flavor. You will not be disappointed. ☺️”

“I stopped at Lara’s yesterday for the first time, and was greeted with wonderful smells and beautiful smiles! The staff was very, very kind. I told one of the girls I’d never been in before, and she proceeded to show me everything on display. All of the yummy baked goods and pastries are huge, and the prices are very very reasonable! I left with 7 treats and only paid $9.50. Awesome quality, astounding service, a joy to have in Marshalltown!”

“ML como sempre lo an sido muy amables y lo didan siendo Asi y todo para adelante mucho animo amigos y amigas.”

“Love their meals!”

“cool people and really friendly and they get along with people”

“good food good drinks good service”

“Stayed here for a couple days on a business trip. Because of its close proximity to the location i would be going, it would be easy to walk too.

At 1st I was a bit underwhelmed since it reminded my of those old time hotels with decor and layout. But eventually I grew into it.

The only thing I wished is that breakfast could have been included as part of the stay.”

“staff was so friendly and helpful. wonderful drink and food”

“Four stars because I always have a good time here and the regulars are friendly. Th3 bartender I had yesterday poured plenty of vodka in my drinks which I appreciated. It's not a fancy bar, and smells of sanitizer or something but hey...dive bars are kinda cool”

“Best Mexican food 🤤 I love coming here”

“The food here is always freshly made and real good. They're usually busy so it can be a bit of a wait sometimes but it is worth waiting.They are currently cash only.”

“Didn't try the bowling, but tried the arcade. There aren't very many games but there is a good variety of games to pick from including two-player games that you can play with your kids, the workers are also super kind, After a game didn't give me all my tickets the worker was able to give me all the lost tickets. Overall this place is a great location to bring your family! 5/5 Stars.”

“Lots of people, mostly younger crowd, always music and dance floor is hot, nice pool tables and big acarde area with lots of fun games. Sometimes service takes awhile and maybe they could use more bartenders during peek hours but the bartenders are always working hard and are cute so it makes up for it. Good vibes in general.”

“La comida esta bien rica! I would recommend these tacos to anyone. Go try them out”

“Always They're good atmosphere, and they make great food and shakes their pies really good as well if you're ever passing through. It's definitely a place that you need to stop and eat at atkwqqqqqast at once!”

“Authentic Mexican in Iowa? Who would have guessed! We live in Texas, where good street tacos are prized. Maria's are as good as any I've had at home or in Mexico City. The posole was flavorful, and husband said the burrito was five star. Homemade horchata was best I've had anywhere. Every time we come to Marshalltown for family, Maria's is a must stop. Don't expect a fancy restaurant. It's window service from an old house, and you eat at picnic tables on the enclosed front porch or outside. But every Texan knows the best Mexican food comes from a hole-in-the-wall joint.”

“Good drinks! Fast service!”

“Every time I roll into Iowa, there's one stop that’s non-negotiable: this pizza place! It was my grandpa’s absolute favorite, and honestly, I get why ... the service is always top-notch, and the pizza? Totally hits the spot. It’s kind of a tradition now, and I’m not mad about it!”

“Was delicious! But we had 3 small blizzard's and a small lime freezie.$22 dollars and some change. Sorry to complain but, I'm glad we weren't hungry. I know it's not just dairy queen. But both dairy queens in marshalltown are clean well run businesses.”

“Every time we go to Perkins it's very friendly, great service and we never wait very long for our drinks or food. The food is very hot and has great flavors that's honestly makes me over stuff myself. That's ok though, because the pie and great atmosphere makes for a great meal, a great evening, I'd even call it a date night. Just like to say thank you to all of the staff, for making my life easier and for making me feel like I am at home. Keep up the great service all of you!”

“When this store first opened, I did not like it as much as the older Little Caesar's in the K-mart. It seemed like they skimped a bit on the sauce and cheese. After the K-mart closed, this store is the only option so I would still occasionally get pizzas there, but never with much enthusiasm.Fortunately, this store has really seemed to turn around! The last few orders I have placed, always for a custom pizza and not a hot-n-ready pizza, have been excellent.Keep making the pizzas great and I will keep coming back for more! Thanks!”

“Love my Starbucks and the guys and gals that work there”

“Though the restaurant is a little rough and could use some work, this is one of the best buffets I've ever been to. They're super attentive and kind and definitely customer oriented!”

“This place never disappoints. Whether it’s the portion sizes, the abundance of seafood choices, the music or the wait staff you can’t go wrong stopping here to eat.”

“i love this place! always my go to for tacos in marshalltown.”

“I dined here years ago one time, & this was my 2nd visit. I am following a keto plan, & was able to have the Legend's burger with no bun, well done, with a condiment cup of dill pickles, & broccoli instead of fries. It fell within my plan & was delicious. Our waitress Hannah was excellent, & very kind. 5⭐️
My only issue was that the bathroom door lock/doorknob is broken, so hopefully they'll change the knob soon.
Overall it was a great lunch. Very pleased.”

“Was coming through Marshalltown and wanted to stop for lunch. Headed to DQ because that’s always fun to enjoy. The folks at the S. Center St DQ were friendly and upbeat - something you don’t always see in the restaurant business. Lacey was great at the front counter; our food came out fresh and hot, it was great! The manager and employees greet customers while their dining and ask if they need anything. I can tell that their mission is serving people. It really shows in the culture. Would recommend 👍🏼”

“Food was great and service was great. I ordered a cheese free pizza and they were great about making it and put plenty of toppings on it for me which most places don't but they did. They also put it in a to go box because no one wants that! No other place has ever done that and i appreciate that!!!

“The food is always good. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten my order wrong either which should be normal but at other places that’s not the case. You usually pull over to wait for your food but that’s because it’s made fresh and you’re really not waiting that long. They also run promotions to support local programs. Give them a try!”
