My drink, Absolut cherry lemonade, was made exactly how I wanted. The rolls were fabulous, as was the mushroom soup and garlic toast. I just wished we had had room for dessert... I loved that we were sitting next to a window looking out onto a main downtown street , which still possessed its quiet holiday vibe. Parking would be along the street or around the back (there are both a garage and small parking lot). There is a coffee shop and bar in the same building (haven't been to either one) and the Merrill Hotel is right next door.

We also had the grilled chicken handwich with pickles (very tasty) and the chicken strips (excellent)... Convenient drive through but the lines (and wait) can get very long...I haven't been inside, but it looked like a typical small diner-type space. Service was friendly (ask for a spoon if you get the shake as you'll need it!)

Amazing food, fantastic pricing, and they're always busy but very friendly! Would 100% recommend…read morestopping by

My travel companion had a cold and we were able to ask for a home remedy. They were gracious enough to give it to us. The home remedy is a teaspoon of cayenne pepper and a shot of milk. Ambience is clean high and priced right.

Highly recommend if you're in the area!…read more I was in Muscatine for work and we stayed at The Merrill and am so glad Maxwell's is right in the lobby. 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.
