This is a special place. It was the finale to a week long road trip that included lots of dining and I must say, it was one of my favorites. The concept is great: fixed menu item with balanced, healthy and flavorful homecooked meals. They had 1 dish on the menu with a main (chicken), multiple sides (rice, chickpeas, squash, dumplings and veggies). I felt like someone's gramma just made me lunch!Service style was similar to a casual dining/quick serve setting. Put in your order, grab a seat, they bring out your food, make sure you're doing great, then check up on you and bring you your check when you're done. Very casual and friendly.Long, community style tables for dining inside or picnic tables outside. Also a small gift shop with local goods from artists and craftsmen.Basically a restaurant quality but healthy, organic, homecooked meal, that you don't have to make yourself or clean up after. It's the sort of food where you could eat here every day and your doctor would love you for it. The world needs more of these!

Kismet that I glanced up at the sign for LT Organic Farm Restaurant driving on I-80 West! Road tripping back to California from Cleveland, I’m recovering from thoracic surgery and this is the nourishing food I crave and know is an integral component of the healing process. Nutrient dense food prepared by folks dedicated to their health & the health of their community is a true gift. Great job, wonderful concept, thank you for all you do on the farm!

I will absolutely come back if I'm ever passing through Iowa again. Cannot say enough about this place. Vegan & nut allergy friendly ✌?

This food is absolutely incredible. Sometimes when I hear organic restaurant I assume healthy means it won't taste so good. It's the best chicken I have ever had in my life. All of the sides are incredible as well. I am so thankful to have this right off the highway. I was expecting to eat junk while traveling.This healthy and delicious meal hit the spot.

What a welcomed stop on our cross-country road trip! If you are like us and feel starved for vegetables and homemade, fresh food when doing a road trip, then absolutely stop here for a meal. There is a set menu each day based on what is in season and is veggie-forward with chicken that was so tender it fell off the bone. I opted out of a few of the sides due to a food intolerance, and they were so kind as to edit one side so I could still have it. It’s a perfect place to stretch your legs and the food is served promptly if you are looking for a delicious meal, but also to get back on the road. The family who runs this farm-restaurant are lovely, as well. 10/10!

Wow, what a fun surprise! We were looking for something off I-80 near Des Moines while traveling. There's only one thing on the menu but it was delicious (it looked like what's pictured in other reviews) but it was delicious. Fun experience!

Absolutely amazing. Only one menu item a day, but it holds a variety of flavorful choices. Will come back if given a chance.

The food at LT Organic Restaurant is phenomenal. I appreciate that it not only tastes wonderful, but is guilt-free. The service was fantastic and quick. The message that the restaurant sends is an added bonus. I couldn't recommend it enough!

We heard good reviews about this farm to table restaurant from friends and they were right! Food is organically grown, fresh, and delicious. Meal was reasonable priced with good portions and very tasty. A welcome break from fast foods!

We made reservations on a whim for 6:00 p.m. on a Friday. We were the only ones there that early and opted for outdoor seating on picnic tables. Soon two other couples arrived and we were all spread apart on the property. It felt like being at home and eating outdoors - very carefree and not fussy. The menu item is the same for everyone, although the host did ask if we had food allergies/preferences. Dinner tasted fresh and delicious - Mediterranean cuisine. Flavorful and chicken so tender it slid off the bone. My husband enjoyed the fresh cheesecake. Great service and wonderful dining experience overall. They are opened every day 11-8 starting Mother’s Day weekend through October. Entrées were $17.95 each the night we were there. We really enjoyed our time there and will be returning!
