The Des Moines Register says the meatloaf is one meal you should eat before you die. It was way overrated. The meatloaf was so-so, glorified hamburger. The potatoes were starchy, flavorless and dry. The corn was lukewarm. Our waitress was brand new and really worked hard at meeting our needs. It was obvious that the training program ( if any)... More

We've stopped here a few times when in town, food was good but pricey. Last time there were flies gathered in the area of the salad bar. We asked the hostess to seat us somewhere else so she grudgingly moved the menus about 2 tables away on the OTHER side of the flies! It has kept us from going back. More

The meals here are always good, lunch sandwich/soup bar is a steal and their beer selection is outstanding. If they didn't have such good food the place could make it as a bar alone. More

6 of us went to lunch on a Saturday. We ordered burgers, sandwiches, soups and salads. My favorite is the Apple Chicken Walnut Salad with a fresh warm chicken breast on top of lettuces, apple strips, candied walnuts and bleu cheese crumbles. I had bleu cheese dressing instead of the raspberry vinaigrette that it comes with. More

However in the past I have been disappointed with a limited menu, high cost and poor quality food. In the spirit of second chances I decided to give it another go. I was... More

Today we decided to take a ride down river to Muscatine and use a $10 coupon purchased from the Quad City Times that we paid $5 for. The owner refused to accept the coupon claiming brunch was a promotion. There was no mention on the coupon that it was not valad for brunch. POOR PROMOTION>>>>> The beef was cold and... More

Great location overlooking the river in downtown Muscatine, nice outdoor covered porch seating and what looked like large indoor space and bar. 2 of us had dinner on a weeknight and found the experience to be pretty mediocre. Waiter wasn't particularly interested in service, wasn't particularly knowledgeable about their drinks (nor, inclined to find answers to our questions from someone... More
