Came here for lunch and was excited to see they make their own homemade sourdough. I ordered the…read moregrilled cheese, one of my moms got the French dip, and my other mom got another sandwich. The sourdough was perfectly crispy, and there was plenty of gooey melted cheese--I even got an awesome cheese pull! The only thing I would change is that I thought my sandwich could have used a little more salt, but that might just be because I'm a salt addict. The fries were perfectly crispy and paired so well with their homemade ranch. I even confirmed with our waitress that it was homemade, and she was super friendly and helpful. We were seated quickly, and since we came around 2:00 p.m. on a Monday, we had the place to ourselves. The restaurant has a casual atmosphere with a bar, and the bathrooms were very clean and nice. The portion sizes were just right--enough to leave me comfortably full without feeling stuffed. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely consider coming back!

This location is nicely situated in the heart of Johnston and offers a fantastic menu and a wide variety of house made beers and they even have some guest beers on tap. (nice touch). They have mini bowling here and the venue is a grand 2 story building with high lofted ceilings and huge rollup doors to let the outside in. But not today...to hot ! Why only 3 stars? We opted to sit at the bar, because that is what we do. After a while the bar tender finally took our orders, and honestly he was not busy enough from my perspective to warrant that long of a wait. After the initial pause (and honestly we did almost get up ad leave) He was decent enough but left us wanting a more attention the entire time. Moving on.... If you are not aware Backpocket originally started in Coralville and are the original sponsors of the Iowa Craft beer tent that follows along RAGBRAI. I have earned several shirts over the years! #earnedit. IYKYK. Today we were just after beers, but after we saw some of that fancy Mac and Cheese come out we decided to top off the bellies and share a bowl! So glad we did, the Honey Pepper Mac and Cheese is worth the calories and then some. DELICIOUS! Of course the beers were good as always. All in all a good experience and I hope the next time we visit the service is just a bit more hospitable.

Uptown Food and Beverage was a fabulous stop, combining a tremendously cozy setting (booths/tables), ease of parking, location, and remarkable historic photos lining their walls. This place works well. Luckily, we had a superb server for our maiden voyage, as Adriana rocked! She helped us with menu options and was both kind and knowledgeable. We shared a tasty Caesar salad, and I appreciated that they served the dressing on the side without requesting it. Their thinner-crust pizza is delicious! We selected two, ordering their Margherita (olive oil, fresh chopped garlic, sweet basil, and topped with aroma tomatoes) and their Spicy Italian 16" options. Wowowowowowowowow! Both pizzas were fabulous, maintaining their consistency, and simply delicious. Thanks to fellow Yelper Dan T for his Spicy Italian recommendation. Sure, we brought home a lot of pizza, but this weekend will be better because of it. I learned they have a good lunch buffet (11-130PM), and we arrived during their 5-7 PM weekday Happy Hour but did not explore it. I had heard about their onion rings and saw an order at a nearby table that had me yearning for them on our next visit.

My husband got wings with jalapeño creamed corn and buffalo sauce. There are daily specials, valentines specials for food and drinks and tons of things to choose from on the menu.
