Honestly, if I could give this restaurant more stars, I think I would. I love the ambience of every aspect of this restaurant. The bar, the decor and interior seating, the absolute beautiful patio with festoon lighting and an outdoor bar. It is all perfectly Instagram worthy. Equally as impressive was the food. My favorite was the tuna tots, but these chicken tacos were delicious in their own right. I only wish they weren't as messy. The staff was attentive, gave great recommendations, and was very friendly. Make sure to check out this downtown Cedar Falls favorite.

Great environment, poor food. The patio with fire pits is great. Food left something to be desired. The cheese curds were very heavily over seasoned. I LOVE cheese and I've never not finished an order of cheese curds, I honestly didn't know they could be messed up. Queso was watery and not much flavor. By far the worst of both of these food I've ever tasted. Macaroni and cheese side dish had undercooked noodles. Next time we will stick to drinks around the fire pit only.

We ordered off the Easter weekend menu, we’re regulars so anytime you guys add/rotate items or have specials we get excited! These absolutely hit. The scallop risotto I’d expect from a Michelin star restaurant in Chicago, it was delicious. Bang bang shrimp were also bright explosive flavors, a joy to eat. The star for my wife was the cheesecake, lemonade lavender and blueberry? Exceptional.Our waitress took great care of us, great experience once again. Thank you, we’re so glad to have a kitchen trying things and pushing out excellent, exciting dishes here in cedar falls.
When visiting this time we were placed not far from the bar. I will give some credit, it was very busy. This is probably our third or fourth dine. Most of the time we come with more people. We sat for at least 15 minutes before we could even be given water or acknowledgment. The tables sat after us, larger groups, immediately got service. The hostess even poured water for the larger groups, that was a little dissatisfying. Our server came from across the restaurant and apologized, I do not think she was even working the table we sat at. She was very nice and took great care of us.The menu has seemed to have change and there are less options from what I remember. Ordering a $40 filet you would think the side included (salad) would come out with the meal, or ask. It came out with appetizer.. and then the steak came out by itself. Perfectly cooked I will say, but cut in half and ice cold. My husband had their George’s burger and said it was good. Truffle fries were incredibly good and perfectly seasoned.

My friend and I came today on a whim. The place was very busy but our servers were super attentive and sweet. Taylor almost also won the stein holding contest! The food was AMAZING! And came out way faster than we expected being how busy it was. The place was so cute, cozy and such a fun welcoming atmosphere. We definitely will be back sometime as there was plenty on the menu that looked delicious to try.

Amazing place to eat in downtown cedar falls. They have a wonderful burger. I got the chicken sandwich east and loved it. The fries are excellent. The staff is very friendly. Lots of parking on nearby streets. The patio is probably the nicest in Cedar Falls. Lots of beer options. We got the goat cheese appetizer, and the cheese curds and both were excellent. The chicken melt sandwich was delicious. All the burger options are tasty. Great place for a nice night out if you’re in town.
Food was alright, nothing special. We had the fish and chips and a chicken sandwich, and a drink with both. For $55+tip was hoping for a little better. I'd go back if it was cheaper but I don't know at the current prices.

Came in at 11:50 today with my wife and 3 year old. The restaurant appeared to only have one other table while we were there, so we were optimistic we'd have a good, dining experience. Ordered right away, our server was very polite and greeted us fairly quickly, we order Mac and cheese right away for our child. She returned a few minutes later to take our order, chips and queso, fish and chips, and a half flat bread and soup. Our app and the kids mac came out after about 15 mins, and then we waited for around a half hour after that and still hadn't received our entrees. With it being lunch on a Tuesday, we had other obligations that didn't allow for us to spend over an hour for lunch, so we made the decision to leave without receiving our entrees. Seems like a nice enough place, but having not received our food in a reasonable amount of time while the restaurant was slow, it was a very frustrating situation to be put in.

The service and food was amazing. Went for Brunch after mass. It was my daughter's birthday and the staff took very good care of and made her feel special.

Well, it seems to be a very nice place, clean and the staff are friendly. The space is a little tight, and it's hard to hold a close conversation due to all the noise from rowdy patrons. Our wait staff was limited, we only saw him three or four times, he didn't ask to refill drinks, and never delivered our food, someone else did. The food was Midwest mediocre; pretty bland and overcooked. All the breading fell off the bang bang shrimp, and the fish and chips was quite dry and flavorless. The miso fish was tasty according to my partner. For the amount of people coming in, it's pretty apparent it's a hot spot for locals to hang and have a home cooked meal.

Visiting from out of state. From the appetizers to the lunch menus (Flatbread, soups, bang bang shrimp) everything was super delicious. Our waitress was very attentive and quick to refill our drinks. Music played in the background along with the lunch crowd. We enjoyed our lunch. Parking was quick to find and reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.
