Restaurant is dark inside, long and skinny layout. Food was pretty decent, seemed a tad overpriced for what we got but taste was good. Did have to wait a little longer than we'd like for our food. We did go on a Saturday night when it was busy.

Outstanding service from the hostess to our server! Shrimp fettuccine and scallop fettuccine were delicious! The rolls and whipped butter were very nice. Highly recommend this restaurant. Reservations are recommended as this is a popular place. Was our 1st time here, and we will definitely return.

What a great spot. If you are in NW Iowa and need a place to eat well executed cuisine and have great (I mean great) drinks, go here. I love the family vibe and will be back every time Okoboji is calling.

I guess the best way to complement a restaurant is to return for more. Thanks Brent and staff for the awesome service and great meal. We will be back for sure. Thanks for the perfect drinks and great conversation.

In town for the week and it's my boyfriend and my last nite here and we decided to try this place out , we were very impressed with everything from the moment we stepped in the door we loved the atmosphere , I had the tilapia and I believe he had cod , anyway the prices were reasonable and next year when we come back to okoboji we will most definitely eat here again

Food is excellent. Waitstaff kind.Lengthy wait for food from the kitchen as they were slammed. But they did not skimp on quality and all came out hot and together and very tasty all around. Don't bother with the side salad though... Very basic iceberg mix. Lots of other better options.Don't get fancy with bar requests. Enjoy typical beer/wine/well drinks and you'll be fine. Not a cocktail bar even though it looks super nice and could be.Walking in will feel strange, as you pass through a strip mall hallway to get to the doors of the place. But all will be good when you step inside the restaurant.Note... Cell service is all but non-existent inside for some reason (T-Mo). Not a bad thing, it happens, just a heads-up that you'll need to step outside if you need to do something.Kid-friendliness: They have a small kids menu. They split a regular-menu main dish for the kids no problem.

Had the broasted chicken. Delicious. I have a four because I feel the atmosphere (tables) could be improved. Seems silly to mention but it would be a huge improvement. You’ll know what I mean if you go. Food is yummy.

Was recommended to eat here while we were in town, you will want a reservation if it’s a weekend or you may not get in. We got an appetizer, spinach artichoke dip, which was delicious. It took awhile to get our dinner as it was busy, I got the broasted chicken and it was amazing - very light breading and very juicy chicken. The twice baked potato was okay, side salad was pretty sad. Other dishes we got were the shrimp fettuccine, my daughter thought was really good but rich. The prime rib was recommended and it was ok, my husband liked it. Good for families, but most of the clientele were older groups of people (60+ yrs). All indoor seating and very dark inside, more of a romantic atmosphere. Good food!!
