DON'T Judge a steak by its building!! It looks cozy and old-school on the outside, but the food…read moreinside is straight-up legendary! The steaks are ridiculously tender, juicy and seasoned so simply that the flavor of the meat does all the talking. You can even cut it with plastic silverware if you need too! Like.. melt-in-your-mouth, cancel all your plans after, think about it for days...kind of good!!!!! Do NOT forget about the Greek spaghetti...the perfect combination of butter, cheese and whatever secret ingredient they use, is the best sidekick to the steak! I normally choose the filet. The Bread: just get it. Used best as a juice cleaner upper when you are saddened by the steak already being digested and all you have left is the liquid reminder that you just housed as steak faster than an Indy Car. Get there early. This is not a suggestion, this is a warning. They are always packed. Just remember, if you find yourself near a baseball complex....you are surely close to one of the best restaurants in the MIDWEST! Enjoy!

The crust is airy and baked just right. We love the Hawaiian (Canadian bacon and pineapple). We also tried the nachos as a starter and they were delicious. No dinner is complete without a couple of their goblet sized drinks- strawberry daiquiri and margarita are long-time favorites. Service is always friendly and they make an effort to get your food and drinks to you quickly. We go to other outdoor dining locations in Clear Lake- but we always return to GE-Jo's.

Our waitress was quick and friendly. The pizza was slow to arrive because there was a large party ahead of us and we were a party of 13. They treated us with fresh hot rolls- so so good! We weren't in a hurry, so it wasn't a problem for us. There is seating inside and outside. We sat outside and the weather was perfect! Would definitely go back!

I left Iowa in 1998, but when I did live here, when ever I had the hunger for pizza, it was ALWALYS the Chicken Alfrado pizza at the Other Place. There was just nothing better. Now, I haven'y been in Iowa for some time, but recent events brought me back, and I found myself in Clear Lake. A lot has changed. I drive down Main St and see all the changes. Does anyone remember Jerry Krause, who used to own the old truck stop that was called "Milepost 194" who eventually sold it, and then bought the Town Pump bar on Main? Anyway, back to the Other Place. It's been 28 years since I had their Chicken Alfrado pizza, and I knew that being back in town that I just had to have one again. I have to say. The one I got served Friday, was NOT like I remembered. It was dry. I couldn't even tell there was alfredo sauce on the pizza? it seemed like crust, chicken and cheese. Granted, there was plenty of cheese and chicken, but the lack of sauce was dissapointing. I don't know if the alfredo sauce is made in house, or if it's brought in. maybe their destributor changed over the years, and they can't get the same sauce that they used 28 years ago. Maybe the business changed ownership and changes were made. I don't know. What I can tell you is that back in 1998, the Alfredo Chicken pizza was AMAZING. It was my go to. It was best thing on the menu. It was what I recommended to everyone I knew. The pizza I had during my recent visit was just.... Meh...

So grateful to the reviewers on Yelp - if I' hadn't gotten this recommendation, we would have settled for Subway.

I have seen a few people that could eat the "queen cut" prime rib, but NEVER the "king cut" prime rib. It's the size of a roast!! HUGE! If you want to experience the taste, but avoid the price, order the PRIME RIB SANDWICH. It's around $8 and comes with one side. The house potatoes are good too...sliced potatoes fried with peppers/onions and topped with cheese and sour cream. The Bloody Mary's are excellent. This is also a kid friendly place to eat. They offer kids meals, sippy cups and high chairs if you need them. Make sure to call ahead for a reservation (especially in the fall/winter months). This has been one of my favorite places to eat locally. I have never been disappointed!

And the food...simply the best we've enjoyed in Mason City. Dry-rub wings appetizer (lemon pepper and mesquite) were generously sized and entirely delectable. NY strip with mashed potato, asparagus and mushroom demi was first-rate, top-drawer and perfectly prepared mid-rare. Legacy burger with sumptuous Gouda Mac and cheese was expertly grilled mid-rare and deliciously bacon-forward. And the crème brûlée was, to be honest, one of the best we've ever tasted. We visited on a slow Saturday so enjoyed the very pleasant quiet ambiance. Had such a great experience that we're headed back tomorrow morning for brunch knowing it will deliver another 10/10 dining adventure. Bistro Nineteen is a winner.

Was not impressed with the appetizer menu at all. Only 3 items. Ordered the Filet Migon. No bread, soup or salad served with your meal. You can order that for extra price. The steak came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I ordered mine rare and it was excellent. Flavor was great. 8 oz was a great size. Then on to dessert. They were out of the item we ordered, but the waitress brought a piece of cheesecake on the house since they were out. The only complaint was really the no bread or soup/salad served with the steak. Over all wonderful time and we will go back again.
