New American Restaurants near North Liberty, IA

“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!“

“Thank you so much for being open on Thanksgiving and taking online orders! Iowa City businesses were all closed but thanks to this establishment, we were able to get two hot steak dinners for an affordable price and they were good. The temp requested for the steak was med-rare and they nailed it. I do wish they had called about being out of green beans before substituting corn since one of us does not eat corn, but this is Iowa. Iowa loves corn.

The good experience with our delivery has made us interested in visiting in person. Even though the food took longer to deliver due to our original dasher canceling, it was still warm too! Everything was packaged really well, portioned well, and they even sent wet naps.

(Photo is food on my plates at home but added for reference to meal size. The container pictured is gravy for the potatoes. This type of container in various sizes held all the sides.)“

“Fantastic place! Food, Decor, Customer Service. Love it!“

“Great view! Great food!!!“

“These burgers are fantastic! If you are a burger lover, or just someone who appreciates food, you need to try Cracken’s Grill. Absolutely worth every single bite! 10/10.“

“Always excellent with partitions for privacy. The bar is dark. The drinks are excellent. The food is excellent. It’s always a class act every single time. Consistency and quality.“

“Food is great! Especially the cheese curds & Monte Cristo! Service is slightly above average. Atmosphere is also nice.“

“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.“

“Excellent food, eclectic specials, one of the better and more creative restaurants in Iowa City“

“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.“

“My husband and I stopped in to the Bluebird Cafe after a busy morning and had a delicious breakfast. We were immediately greeted at the door. Service was fast, staff was friendly, and I had the most delectable omelette EVER! I would definitely recommend 10/10!! We will definitely be back!!“

Brady -- he was new but handled everything wonderfully. Always smiling, attentive without hovering and always found an answer to any questions we had quickly. Please give this guy a raise!“
