    I finally had a chance to go there this past weekend and it was amazing!! My in-laws are regulars…read moreand always telling us about how good it is. Thankfully, we made a reservation so we were able to sit inside and not outside in the hot heat, although there were lots of folks that were sitting at the tables with the umbrellas and seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely! I started with the bourbon and bacon which was stellar!! I loved the bacon so so much. The pepper one was a little bit too peppery for my liking and I still appreciated the chance to try it. I wish I could just get a plate of bacon when I come here because the bacon is so so good. I continued the evening with more pig products and got the pork tenderloin with the maple bourbon glaze and wild rice and asparagus. This was super Duper Duper Duper excellent!! And I totally loved this meal. I was able to complement it with some Sangiovese from I don't remember where but it was also really light and delicious for a summer day. Back to the meal, the asparagus was perfectly cooked and the wild rice had really great flavor. Not surprisingly, I didn't have any room for dessert because I already had lots of food and I also stole a bite of the beef and brisket burger which was excellent along with the french fries that were also very good.

    Nice location and patio. Too bad the menu is limited and overpriced…read more Don't dare complain about your watered out salad dressing. The wealthy owner has thin skin and will take offense. She should not be in the hospitality business.

    You want a great place to grab a great tasting beer? This is the place. I'm wrong to limit the…read moregreatness to the beer, the wine is pretty tasty as well. Atmosphere is laid back and the music is just loud enough to hear and hum along to while still being able to hear the conversation of the people you came with. Conversation with others and beer is always better than beer and your own thoughts. I'd recommend getting a flight. They make suggestions if you're not sure what to get and this way you get a taste of what's on tap. Go ahead and let your tastebuds discover a new craft beer from around the country! You're in Iowa. If you can't get out a little, at least let your tastebuds travel. Also had a glass of the Cow Catcher wine, a very yummy red. Good local and national roots behind the winery that makes it, be sure to ask about it.

    This is a great place to get a crafted beer. Don't know what you like? No problem, they'll let you…read moretaste test before you purchase at no charge. Yeah, no kidding! No food, but you can bring your own. No loud music or tv's, this is a place to have a conversation or play games, they have an assortment to choose from. Nice relaxed atmosphere, definitely a place where everyone knows your name, if not when you arrive, definitely when you leave.

    The Paddler's Tap - 5 of 6 beers in my flight. These 5oz samples were a great selection of what was on tap. If able, try a Left Hand, crafted in Longmont, CO.

    12/13/2025 our server disappeared and everyone around us that came after us got their food before…read moreus. The first old fashions was good but the consistency with the second was not the same and when asked to remake they came out the same. They added something to top off the old fashioned which shouldn't be done. The server we had was MIA and we waited over 30 minutes between ordering and getting our food. Service was so slow while we watched others get attended to by their wait person. First time ever eating here and probably is the last sadly.

    Located inside the Diamond Jo Worth Casino, Woodfire Grill is a lovely and elegant dining…read moreexperience. Despite the fact that it's located inside the casino, you are not required to actually enter the gaming floor to get to the restaurant. If you go around to the side door, you can pretty much skip the casino altogether if you want. Also, even though the casino is definitely loud and noisy, the restaurant was remarkably quiet and intimate. We had the giant pretzel as an appetizer and it was fantastic. Then I had the Braised Short ribs with mashed potatoes and vegetables which was really pot roast, but really excellent pot roast, and my fiancée had the WFG burger which he said was great. A very nice dining experience, the service was fantastic, and the prices were pretty reasonable. Nothing remarkable, but a very nice place to have dinner.
