So I brought my daughter here and we were going to go in and grab a bite to eat. Before we did, we…read morehad to use the restroom. While I was in the restroom, I noticed a kitchen person in there using the urinal. He washed his hands. That wasn't the issue. The issue was that he had his apron on, and the kitchen rag in his pocket. He left, took a left out of the bathroom and went straight back to the kitchen. I would assume having to use a urinal with an apron on or even going to the bathroom at all. You would remove your kitchen equipment before you would go. Today is 12/20/2023. Time 12:31 PM. I did call to talk to management, but didn't get an answer. Finally gave up being on hold.

#72-2021 One of my old haunts back in day when I used to run…read morethe hell out Austin Minnesota to Georgia with Hormel. I still run a lot of this area but I haven't stopped in here for quite an extended period. So many changes through the years but still good to see it going along. Back in the day it was a two-lane highway junction of highway 92 and US 218 now back in the '90s they put in a huge four-lane freeway but at least they changed with the times. Last time I stopped and here was right when covid was really ramping up and the restaurant was closed and everything else. But as I was tooling along across hy92 out of Muscatine my belly started grumbling and I thought I'm going to get a snack and I took a look inside the cafe and I thought yeah they open later on for dinner they got weird hours cuz of staffing but I said hey screw it I'm going to go saw some z's and get up and eat here. It's still the old four corners truck stop still mom and pop owned they now like to call it FOCO for four corners duh! Lol Catering still to the truck driver but also the general public they have a very decent selection of a convenience store gas propane and of course diesel pump scale showers they're older not the greatest but it is what it is. But the restaurant is still there that's a great thing they've got some different hours though because of staffing a couple of times during the week they open for breakfast through lunch but then they shut down a couple hours before dinner. Still on by the same family that owns the truck stop so therefore this review is definitely going on this Yelp page because it is not separate it's the same place. They carry RONNOCO coffee which is a nice blend around Iowa and Missouri I like it the C store pretty much does everything it needs to do. There's a big seller here they have a beer cooler and there's a smaller place because you're pretty much out in the middle of farmland and there isn't a lot of stuff around just have to travel so they do a great business of that. I pulled in had hot dog and then a Powerade orange zero sugar. one thing that made Kevin very happy my favorite Powerade zero sugars are fully stocked here they're hard to find at the Big chain truck stops but there they were orange fruit punch and grape same stuff I buy at the grocery store at home. So out to the truck I went I ate it was lights out got up about 6:30 wander down in hungry ready for some food. They have all you can eat fried Chicken on Thursday and it's pretty much kind of like off of a buffet you serve yourself you can get some slices of pizza they have a godfather's on the premises too Express and they had some mashed potatoes and some other stuff that goes with the chicken. The cans are very clean they take a lot of pride in them they even have a sign of let them know if things aren't right and they do a really good job of keeping them up. I went with the good old fashioned hamburger steak with brown gravy on top no shrooms or onions that boy did they cook it just right too man that thing was awesome did it Canadian style with some french fries and gravy didn't want any smashed taters. And then the other side was corn they gave me way too much corn I couldn't eat all of that but it was still fine. At diet Pepsi. It takes a little while for the food to come out cuz it's prepared very fresh it was a lot longer than I thought for the hamburger steak there was a pretty decent crowd inside too but nonetheless it was really really good and all in all I will stop here again I was very impressed they're doing what they can do and they're doing a good job with what they have. So I'll know the old four corners at ainsworth Iowa is still a decent place to hang your hat for a few hours.

We travelled at the end of January and after a long day of travel and many delays due to heavy low fog, we were definitely excited to have a restaurant right in the hotel. There is a parking lot across the street and a parking deck behind as well so there is plenty of parking. The restaurant is located right in the lobby and also has a full bar. My coworker and I were dying for a drink and some food after a long morning. The bar has speciality cocktails, but also a full bar, wine, and beer. You can check out their speciality cocktails, wine, and beer lists on their website as well as make reservations. For food, my coworker and I decided to share a few appetizers. We ordered the Brussels Sprouts, Wings (1/2 Honey Sriracha, 1/2 Ginger Scallion), and the Baked Goat Cheese. They were all DELICIOUS! The flavors were great and the portions were as well. I've never had goat cheese before and it was so amazing I couldn't stop eating it. The sriracha wings were spicy, but not overwhelming. Later, some other people met us and we ordered the shrimp tacos which were also very good. The next morning we also had breakfast and I ordered the Omelet which comes made-to-order and you can choose 4 different additions. It also comes with potatoes. All delicious. Additionally, the service was also great as well! If I'm ever back in Muscatine I will definitely plan to return.

The first one is the entrance. That is definitely a hazard for both staff and customers. Customers are walking directly in the path of the staff coming out with dishes. Bad design there. You can see the main entrance was ultimately closed in order to accommodate more seating. The other issue is the noise level. That was quite bad as well due to the close proximity of the tables and overall size of the restaurant. I'm sure in the summer this might not be as bad due to the patio portion of the restaurant. Neither will hinder me returning. The food is amazing!
