We ordered our pizzas and proceeded to wait 2 hours to have our food get to us. The kids were getting restless and four other tables got their food and left before they even acknowledged we hadn't received our food. Then two other tables that came in after us got their food. The waitress said we could have another pitcher of beer free but didn't even offer us at least a free pizza. I always thought the customer was supposed to be taken care of but I guess times have changed. Think twice before going there.

It was amazing and the staff were polite and attentive. I ordered their Sicilian and Mamma Mia was it delicious. It was hot and gooey with cheese and perfectly spiced with just the right amount of heat. Loved it. Do yourself a favor and go to Jake's and skip the ordinary pizza dive.

I grew up going to Jake's, so when we were on a four hour road trip north this past week, we had to…read moreswing over and have some of that amazing thin crust cut party style- exactly how I remembered it. The restaurant was fairly similar to how it used to be in the 80s, too, from what I can still remember anyway. We called ahead so it would be ready and we could get in, eat, and get back on the road. The server was great! We got two pizzas, both of which were perfect. That crust is unbeatable!

However, the next time I stopped in, it was even better. Now Portside is a boji must when we're in town. It just really is that good. Portside has multiple levels and a fun atmosphere as well. It can be occasionally hard to find a seat on a busy weekend so plan accordingly! Check out their tshirts too (I really like this pizza).

We stopped into Portside Pizza on our first trip up to Okoboji for the spring/summer season…read more First-timers, just the three of us. The drinks hit the spot, finding a seat was easy, and the break-away breadsticks were a flavorful way to kick things off. The pizza itself didn't quite land for our crew. We ordered the Butcher, and the sauce in particular wasn't our style. The prices ran a bit higher than we expected too. Nothing that dampened the outing, just not quite our thing. We're glad we gave it a shot, and if the drinks and appetizers are your scene, it's worth a stop. It may not make our regular rotation on future Okoboji trips, but every town deserves a first visit.

Every Iowan beerfest I attend, I am always in search of the West O Beer tent. We popped in on our final night of vacation for a pint and some pretzel bites as the kiddos played out on their patio. Pricing was on par. Parking was a bit cramped, you can tell when the parking lot is full that the inside will be, too. You need to order at the bar. (They are closed on Monday, FYI.) The pretzel bites were good, mustard definitely had some kick. My West O Cocoa was the perfect end to vacation. I'll pop in this brewery again when we are in town!

I was honestly impressed, for a small town and local Italian place I just wasn't sure what to order…read moretonight. Usually I end up getting the Stromboli or a sub which are both solid but I wanted to try something new and a bit more "Italian." I went with the Sausage and Pepper Parmigiana, a risk worth taking and probably my new favorite. It is a dish consisting of Sautéed sausage, bell peppers, onions topped with marinara sauce and baked with mozzarella over spaghetti noodles. I used their website to order and picked up to take home for an evening in. Service was quick, easy, and the order was packaged up nicely for transport as I live 24 miles away. I will state as others as if you are looking for a meal in - ambiance of the place is very low key, it's nothing crazy visually but the food is definitely a win! Also added in some photos from previous visits to show other delicious options!

The only thing stated was for the bar tender to please stop talking as she had no recommendations for adding cheese to a chicken Sandwich, and had to ask the kitchen staff if shredded cheese was available. I like to base my experiences off of facts. So let's start there! Your bartender had no recommendations for a customer asking for a blonde beer, and no other options to add cheese to a chicken sandwich. If feelings were hurt based off a customer asking to please stop talking to them, you need to manage your own emotions and not discriminate based on someone driving a motorcycle.

I always will get their cauliflower crust as I'm obsessed with it. However only downside is it sometimes can come out crispy almost to the point if it is burnt depending on who is behind the counter. Service is overall alright but not great. Waiters are not very friendly and often miss something we ordered or type it in wrong every time we way there however they always fix their mistake. Drinks also can get a bit pricy. Please note the place is not very big so you may have to wait on the weekends. Overall super cute place and love the food!
