Check out the specials at this place. They have some awesome specials and homemade soups daily. Don't come in a rush, as it isnt always quick, but the homemade soups and off menu specials are definately worth stopping for!

Waterloo doesn't have a ton of "good" restaurants apart from chains and fast food. We decided to try this for a late lunch on a Friday. We were surprised by the nice atmosphere the restaurant brought in and we would go back to sit on the patio once it is nice out. The wait staff were attentive and kind, we did not have to wait, the service is a little slower for food and our food was fresh so not a problem. The food was pretty good, we were surprised by the pricing compared to the atmosphere - the value is great for the meal you receive. The food is hot and fresh though the chocolate lava cake was a little lacking and I wouldn't get that again. Otherwise our sandwiches were hot, correct, and tasty. I'd recommend this place!

Nice, clean restaurant, but it has a bit of an identity problem. The decor is higher end, but the casual staff attire and huge TVs placed around the place threw me off. We were there on a busy Friday evening and expected a short wait - which we had. Once sat, we saw our server four times total - once to order drinks, once to order food, once to get our food and once to pay our bill. She didn’t check on us once after we got our food, ask if we’d like another drink, nor did she thank us or ask us how things were at the end. Not bad service, just mediocre and no personal touch.The menu had a nice selection. My husband ordered the Bada Bing Ribeye. Steak was prepared well but nothing special. I ordered the Margarita flatbread and it was also just fine. Our daughter enjoyed her turkey pesto sandwich and fries. A little pricey for mediocre food but not bad.Overall it’s decent if you are in the area, but won’t be a destination for us.

The atmosphere in 1850 was just what we needed that night. There were four of us, longtime friends who hadn’t seen each other for some time and our waitress was very patient with us!

The service was fantastic and the waitress was very friendly. The food was okay. All the appetizers (fries, sweet potato fries, and goat cheese teuffle) came out burnt. Appetizers came out after the food. Atmosphere is nice!
