My sister and I both decided on the BBQ Beef Sando with broccoli salad as well as the spicy pimento cheese appetizer. Both the entree and appetizer were delicious, the real star of the show was the broccoli salad! Heads up, they mean it on the spicy with the pimento cheese but for me it was the perfect amount of spice! The space itself goes with the rest of the charm that is Main Street in Waterloo with exposed brick and the overall Hallmark small town vibe. They have a large space in the back where I have attended multiple events and it is even more enjoyable in the summer time. I have never had issues with the service here as others have noted in reviews, the bar staff have always been kind! This is a place worth visiting!

We sat on the patio and started with a bottle of wine and the bruschetta app. With so many meat & cheese options, we couldn't all agree on charcuterie to split, so we all ended up getting our own personal Pick 2 boards. I went with the red dragon mustard cheddar and cotswold with Genoa and peppered salames. The board is served with crackers, olives, dried fruit, a nuts, and dark chocolate and I ate every morsel! We also got the chocolate salame dessert which is a sliced chocolate roll with pistachios and was DELICIOUS. The seating outside was nice but a bit loud from street traffic. I didn't make my way inside, but am looking forward to checking it out next time. Service was pretty attentive considering we were outside and it was a pretty busy evening. I will definitely be back to explore more of this menu!!

One of the oddest cheeseburgers I can recall ever ordering. While I admire the chef's /…read morerestaurant's enthusiasm to do something exotic, here, it didn't work. It's about execution. The meat was quite odd, both in consistency and taste. If I had to guess, they took reject pieces from their steaks and ground them up, perhaps several days ago? You couldn't cut through it with a fork. It had a strange taste to it. It wasn't at a warm or hot temperature and tasted stale. The onions that they added were delicious, but way too minuscule in size and bulk to have any taste impact. The bun was ordinary, despite their raving and reliance on its quality, and it being a Kaiser roll. The burger lacked customary garnish. Why I order cheeseburgers at high end establishments? In part? I like the quality thick beefsteak tomato slice and crisp, fresh lettuce. Here? No garnish at all, just a patty with a little cheese and onion. If the patty was fresh black angus and juicy, without the weird consistency and taste present here, and had they lavished it with mountains of similar onion and more cheese? --The risky and odd approach to making a cheeseburger might have proven successful. For this cheese to suffice, it, too, would have needed to be more pungent in taste, and abundant in presence. You could barely taste it. The mashed potatoes were quite good but way too salty. I literally crunched down on some salt crystals. That's when you know there's inordinate salt. Weird service and rock hard chairs made this bizarre stop on the way to St. Louis/ Denver more painful to savor. What irritates me was that I had to order a Caesar salad just to obtain roughage. And when you take the $30 for the salad and burger combined into account? That's a lot for such an odd experience. In summary, anyone who watches and implements the Gordon Ramsay Fword cheeseburger recipe on YouTube will end up with a vastly superior cheeseburger. In this town, while I am visiting only, from what I've read and seen in reviews, I'd recommend instead the frosty mug for basic food along these lines. A $24 burger better be pretty darned special to attract this sort of tab. This was just weird, not great. Sorry, no photos.

The prime rib, which was a special that night, my dog would not eat. There was nothing but fat and gristle and extremely thin cut.

Every aspect that brought us back has disappeared so we will not be returning.

My favorite was the crimson eclipse. Food- 3/5. We ordered some appetizers and they were a little disappointing/did not match the description of the menu. The margarita pizza was a little spicy. Fruit and cheese plate had some nice jam, but the presentation was off. Crab cakes were small. Also, the menu on their website was slightly outdated. I would still recommend this location as it's very classy, great for groups, and plenty of parking. Service was excellent. Indoor and outdoor seating.

We ordered appetizers a calzone ( burnt in on end, blackened on the bottom -bitter tasting) and a sandwich ( warm, chips oily and soggy). It seems like there are only 2-3 staff working on a graduation / Mother's Day weekend ???? Service was slow but these folks were clearly overwhelmed. They were polite and apologetic for the food preparation time. There were very few folks there so they weren't slammed busy and overwhelmed, just overwhelmed. We likely won't be back. $325 Dinner and drinks bill and any chain place with mid quality drinks and food ( Chilis, Applebee's, Cheddars, ) would be 1/2 the cost and clearly better. An upscale place ( Flame, Texas Roadhouse, Outback) would be a way bether choice for comparable money. The Venue is stunning and looks clean. Hopefully they get it together, or get someone in the space who can. Disappointed at best.

Antique furniture, couches, tables and cozy chairs at the bar! There is just a warm, comfortable and cozy vibe from the building, decor and the amazing staff! They have a several page long wine menu that includes glasses and wines by the bottle. If you love wine you will not be disappointed! But it doesn't end with wine...specialty cocktails, beers, and more. Look to the board to the left of the bar for other delightful specials. I tried the coconut hot toddy and it was yummy!

Their wine flights are organized in a cute carrier, and it was only $10 for a flight. You do have to check your empty flight back in to get your deposit back. It was not the best wine on the trail, in my opinion. There was some cute wine merchandise, similar to what is sold at other wineries. The women's bathroom was spacious and clean. I would return, especially on a warm day when the patio is open.
