I went to Iowa for the first time and breakfast here was wonderful. I had a veggie omelet with potatoes and a biscuit. It was tasted great and the waitress was quick and very nice. Definitely suggest it for a good breakfast---lots of Hawkeye fans there!

Lots of excellent breakfast choices here and we are VERY happy we made the stop here this morning.This place gets and stays busy with lots of turnover on tables. As it was just my husband and myself and we were invited to sit where we'd like, we seated ourselves at the counter stools in the center of the room rather than take up a table for four.Great decor (except for having to look at Joni Ernst while eating...blergh) with lots to look at and read throughout the room.The food was incredible with large portions. I could swear I tasted nutmeg in the little fried potato cakes but whatever it was, they were delicious. All of the dishes were amazing and the servers seemed hurried but were still friendly and attentive.

Menu has good variety but meals lacked flavor. All our meals were bland and not hot. Service was good. Doesn't serve alcohol.
