    Classic Benedict
    Rachel K.

    I was excited to try out Crosby's for a Sunday brunch. I ordered the Coffee Cured Salmon Benedict. My friends ordered the Classic Benedict, Coffee Cured Lox Bagel, and the Chicken Duo with Bacon and Apple. The salmon was good on my egg Benedict, but the hollandaise sauce was clumpy and it was overall underwhelming. The bite I had of my friend's lox bagel tasted pretty good. I ordered the Chocolate Chip Banana Brioche Bread Pudding for dessert and my friend order the beignets. I thought the chocolate chip and chocolate sauce overpowered the bread pudding. I would have preferred less chocolate sauce and more cream sauce to balance out the chocolate chips. However, if you are a chocolate lover and you can enjoy it with a large glass of milk it may be right up your alley. The beignet were disappointing compared to those in New Orleans. The beignet's exterior was harder than normal and they weren't as fluffy. The service was overall good, however I wish the waitress would have asked if I would like a refill, versus me flagging her down 10 minutes after my glass was empty especially since the soda/tea glasses are about half the size of other restaurants.

    Strawberry, pickled rhubarb, apricot salad with Burrata.

    We took our niece out and she picked this place. It was a good choice. We were asked if we wanted to eat inside or outside. I think the only outside tables were out front and totally in the sun. Glad we ate inside. I'm not sure what the decorating vibe is. The carpet was a giraffe print and the wallpaper looked like the Matrix. There were some vintage looking French prints on the wall. Regardless, the service and food was good. We tried the cheese curds (kind of pedestrian), the Brussels sprouts (huge and delicious), the smashburgers (doubles and stacked high), the waffle fries (perfectly fried), and a salad. Let me tell you about that salad. It had sliced strawberries, picked shaved rhubarb, dried apricots cherry tomatoes and burrata on top of a lettuce mix. Luckily, our server questioned whether or not the dressing had been tossed with the salad (new person in the kitchen, she said) so she brought me the strawberry vinaigrette on the side. (She was correct, there was no dressing.) Totally appreciated that attention to detail. Best salad I've had in a while! I would go back!

    This cute little restaurant is located in the Newbo area. When had brunch and all 4 of us loved our selections. I had the biscuits and gravy with eggs scrambled very, very dry and hash browns and all of it was perfectly cooked and so tasty. My partner had the Philly steak omelet and he loved it. C The service was perfect and the seating was comfortable. Parking there is a small lot in the back and ample street parking. If you are in Cedar Rapids I would definitely give it a try because it is really good!

    Maple Beignets tasted like dough. Nothing like Nola beignets.

    Friendly staff, great waitress, nice ambience but I was not impressed with the food. My steak was perfectly cooked in the center (medium) but too well on the outside. The Queen 75 was quite tasty.

    Champagne Risotto Salmon
    Stephanie F.

    We wanted to try a new restaurant for restaurant week, and the champagne risotto salmon caught my eye. Well, it was amazing! I'm just sad this is a short time special. Hopefully, they add it to the regular menu! My boyfriend ordered the blackened salmon, and we split the cajun shrimp app. They were both tasty as well. I love that they have a lot of seafood and vegetarian options. It's perfect for Lent. I'm glad restaurant week introduced me to this place. It's a great atmosphere and reasonable prices.

    My husband and I were on vacation for the weekend in Cedar Rapids, and had some time before our Sunday flight. So we took advice from Yelp and went to Crosby's for brunch. We were seated immediately at 11:00 a.m. at a high top table in the bar area. The chairs were hard to sit in. Kind of kept sliding out. I have the stuffed french toast which was delicious, with some sausage on the side which was also great. Husband had a BLT which was made with spicy jalapeno aioli instead of mayonnaise, to his surprise. The food was fine he said. For the most popular brunch place in a small town, we did pretty well to get in and out within an hour, and the service was pretty good, though my water could have been refilled a little sooner. I would come back for lunch or brunch or dinner!

    Crosby's food was disappointing, just fair. Nice service though. I won't be returning. Minimal ambiance as well.

    The bacon and pickle grilled cheese is the best sandwich I have ever had in my life. That alone is worth 5 stars.

They certainly spend a lot of money and I hope it's busy every single day. I know if their was an establishment like this in California it would be super pricy to play and eat. The service was awesome and the gal took great care of us and came back to check on us often. The food was okay. They made really good margaritas and the spicy bloody was the best I have had. My cobb salad would have been amazing if they had better or homemade dressing. It was very thick and had no flavor. We had to taste the fried cheese and it was really good, but very salty. I would have to eat one and then wait 15 minutes to eat another one. It was delicious though. My husband had the meat sundae I think and he liked the dish and the horseradish sauce was good and not too over powering. I love that they offer airline chicken which I am assuming it is "air chilled" which has not been dipped into chlorine or antibiotics!? Overall I would come back and try other foods and drinks in the future!!

They have very good comfort food and a nice selection of adult beverages. I had the bacon mac which I enjoyed. The place was clean and our server was friendly. I love that they have indoor activities like bowling and pickleball with another upstairs bar with indoor and outdoor seating with more activities like corn hole. I think others are overly harsh on their critiques of the establishment. It is not meant for fine dining; it's a place to have fun for a few hours. As a person who grew up in Northern WI in the 80s, I would have loved to have a place like this!

First impressions were a bit confusing--the entrance makes you feel like you're walking into an office building. There's a door to the right with signage for what seems to be a sister bar that's only open on limited nights, but the actual restaurant is straight back. Once inside, the space is large and open, with plenty of room between tables and a sizable bar area. I sat at the bar and learned about their Whiskey Wednesday specials, which included several types of Old Fashioneds and whiskey flights. While it sounded intriguing, I opted not to partake. They also offer daily drink special themes. The menu is eclectic, with a mix of Cajun, Italian, and American fare. I went with the Cacio e Pepe with Elephant Ear (Orcchiette) pasta, and added shrimp along with a half wedge salad as a premium side. The pasta itself was delicious--perfectly cooked with a rich, peppery flavor. However, I wish the server had mentioned that the shrimp was Cajun-seasoned. While great on its own, it slightly overpowered the pasta. The wedge salad was a bit of a letdown--the lettuce was watery, which diluted the overall flavor. The dish also came with garlic bread, which was yummy. Service was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and efficient. Unfortunately, it was hard to get a real read on the restaurant's vibe because it was pretty empty on a Wednesday night.
