    Fan tailed shrimp dinner
    Michelle L.

    We were so excited to finally try this great little grill. I ordered the chicken fried steak dinner and my husband ordered the fan tail shrimp. His shrimp & fries were great & he loved them! My chicken fried steak dinner tasted and had the texture of a frozen tv dinner. The corn was great but the rest left a lot to be desired. The service seemed rushed and we were not even asked if we wanted to go box when over half my meal was left uneaten. If we return, I hope for a better experience.

    Best seat in the house. People watching at the main intersection in town.

    I'm very surprised at the 2.5 stars. We just moved into town and decided to give it a try. We tried two burgers, the Bob and Big Dave and both were delicious! The Big Dave was my favorite and the hashbrowns were cooked just right! Pepper jack cheese fried cheese balls were legit. The only thing we weren't a fan of was the artichoke dip. A little more Parmesan and maybe squeeze out the moisture in the spinach and it was good. I miss the peanuts at the table and throwing the shells on the floor. Used to live going to a steakhouse in Alaska that did this. It was fun to do it again here! We will be back to try all the burgers and a steak.

    Not a great first impression with a dirty table when I sat down, not a huge choice for us keto folk because their menu ha d no veg option to stay away from the potatoes and fried stuff. atmosphere and service was good. Steak was cooked well and great flavor ... will give it another shot for sure!

    I had a double cheeseburger and my husband had the fish basket. Both were very good!! Service was excellent and prices are reasonable.

    Service was slow. The steak had no flavor at all. French fries were crispy and tasty. Clean small dining area. I wouldn't go back.

    We stopped in here along our road trip and we're pleasantly surprised. We split a house salad and…read morethe pasta dish to save room for their peanut butter pie. Wow! Everything from the service to the food and the ambience was wonderful. This is definitely one of our favorite restaurants in the area and we plan to come again on our next trip through.

    Had dinner here on a Tuesday evening while in town for a conference. I partnered up with another…read moreconference attendee and we came here for dinner. The menu had a diversity of options with both bistro and full size options. We both settled on the Main St. chicken dish on recommendation from the waitress along with swapping the rice for mashed potatoes. Great suggestion. My conference mate asked to have her mushrooms removed and I asked to have the tomatoes removed. Although we both ordered the same meal, the presentation looked different for each of us and hit the spot for our tastebuds. Mine seemed more like a chicken marsala while hers was a tomato sauce. Either way we both enjoyed our meals. We both also had dessert - I had the delicious chocolate cake with raspberry sauce. Honestly there was too much sauce but the cake was still delicious! My conference mate had the peanut pie and it was divine - imagine a Reese cup with an Oreo crust. If I'm ever back in Ames this will definitely be on my return list!!
