You can choose from a selection of menu items or you can build your own sandwich or salad. I chose a menu selection, they tossed it all in a bowl with some dressing and packed it into a little container with zero room for activities. There was like a dusting of protein and an absurd amount of lettuce, but it was pretty good and hit the spot. Service was about what you'd expect from a small town cafe!

I probably missed a couple descriptors, as I really needed another visit to wind around this place some more.

I've been working in Iowa for 2 months, and unfortunately, I have not found another salad place to…read morechoose from with delicious healthy salads. This restaurant has started shrinking portions on takeout, and messes up at least one ingredient in the salad every single time. I always get the asian chicken crunch and it's usually the chicken is missing. I know it gets confusing with chicken being so hard to see and all.... The two stars are generous since this chain obviously is cheap and lazy on takeout orders simply because they think can, and I've ordered enough times to have a good idea!

Service at Maggie's was excellent--our server Harry really made the experience. We ordered two drinks: the Lemon Lavender Italian Soda (refreshing and tasty) and the Hugo Spritz. The Hugo Spritz initially just tasted like tonic water, but we let our server know and Harry kindly brought us a replacement that was much better. For food, we tried the Margherita pizza and the Ellie (caramelized onion, blue cheese, and onion). Both were decent. Seems like fresh ingredients! I am personally not a fan of blue cheese usually, but I did enjoy it. Service was super efficient--felt a little rushed but they are typically very busy on a Friday night. Dessert was a nice finish: the raspberry ice cream tasted like real raspberries, and the shortbread was decent. Only downside? Lots of flies--we found ourselves swatting them away throughout the meal. Overall, a good experience and we will be back!

A bit overpriced but that's to be expected at such a place. AMBIANCE: both inside and outside are comfortable although in September there were too many bugs for us outside. Inside was very nice though. SERVICE: service met expectations and were all friendly I recommend this for an "upscale meal to impress", whenever such an occasion calls for that.

The Encounter Cafe is…read moreliterally across the street from our hotel, so this was a no-brainer if you're looking for an upgrade to the complimentary powdered eggs and overused waffle machine offered by the hotel that your staying at. The space itself is large and looks to be separated into two halves. I entered on the one side, ordered at the counter, just like you would at any coffee shop and waited. This place serves a full-service breakfast as well if you're looking for something more substantial (eggs, panini's, pancakes, etc..). I was just here picking up and bringing it back to our room. The coffees were fine, but there was only one gentleman working the counter, and he was a bit overwhelmed. He forewarned me that he had 4-5 drinks ahead of mine, so I ended up sitting there waiting for about 15 minutes for our two drinks. I wasn't pressed for time today, but if I was, this would've been an issue. I ordered a raspberry chocolate scone and a cinnamon roll. The scone was delicious. Not too sweet and was definitely made this morning. The cinnamon roll was delicious as well, but it was extremely sweet. To the point where it hurt your teeth. It would also have been better if it were warmed up. Lastly, they gave me this big cinnamon roll in a bag without any napkins or utensils?!? I had to stop at the free breakfast at our hotel to get a fork, knife and some napkins. So kind of a mixed-bag at the Encounter Cafe. I would give it another shot and try some other things, but it didn't blow me away.

I had the Spicy Peanut Tofu Bowl, and my companion had one of the salads, with some fries to start with. All of the food was great. I was visiting from The San Francisco Bay area and was pretty surprised at the high prices for restaurant food in Iowa City, and I think Trumpet Blossom is rather expensive too, but it was very good, and as others said the place is very pleasant. Many restaurants apparently try to drive people out with hellish loud music and clangy acoustics, but it was really nice to eat here. The service was good too!
