I visited my niece and Iowa State University and she wanted sushi. This place is really close to…read morethe campus and it has really good sushi. It has nice decor.

It's like the high school mean club but between ages 50 to 60. Just improve your service if it's not up to par. It's not high school. It's a business someone is trying to run. Good luck! If you are white and 50ish, it's the place to go.

My husband and I love speakeasies, whenever we visit cities we get excited about trying one out, so…read morewe've been to quite a few. This one was disappointing. LOWS: Food: Mozzarella sticks were pale and bland. The red sauce tasted like canned tomato paste. The charcuterie board was a let down too. The prosciutto was overly slimy and smelled spoiled. The bread wasn't a fresh sourdough like advertised, it was a Texas toast. HIGHS: Cocktails: The drinks we had were great! They have over 100 different bourbon and a variety of cocktails. Mixed Feelings: Music: The band Nola was fantastic. They matched the vibe we were expecting. But no one told us about the $5 (per person) cover charge. It wasn't on the menu, the website or the reservation nor was it mentioned to us verbally. Ambiance: The decor and dark chairs were great. However I've never been to a speakeasy with wide open windows that let so much light in.

The owner (Ben I think) is a scammer. They advertise $21 for 21 mugs everywhere. Went for a…read morefriend's birthday and was going to buy their mugs for the night. Get to the counter and Ben tells me it's $25. It's a $4 difference I know, but don't try to make a quick buck on unsuspecting college kids. Also incredibly dirty and grungy. They let in a ton of minors. Bouncers are overly aggressive. I'm honestly surprised they don't have any assault charges yet, or maybe they do, which is completely understandable.

The bouncers are definitely bad... good if you are underage I guess (haha) . But I came in with a…read morereal ID card at 22 almost 23 years of age. I'm also married and have a wedding ring and husband with me. They said my ID was a fake without even scanning. My husband had to convince them to let me in. We walk in and we are like the oldest people there. But don't get me wrong, we are 22 and 23 (not that old) and the legal drinking age is 21 so idk how we could be that old compared to everyone else. The ambiance is fun and lively, but def too loud to hold a conversation. Good if you are drunk and cannot hold one. In my opinion it does kinda seem like they lowkey want to gatekeep the bar and not have married couples there or something. Could've been a genuine misunderstanding but the situation was not handled well on the bouncer's end for sure. We have a good story to tell but would not go back though!

Ambiance is exactly what you'd expect; intimate, petite bar, calming lighting & the cutest little tables whether high tops or lounge type.

She gave us menus n sent us upstairs as we wanted to sit outside. The waitress upstairs was chatting with a co worker sitting at the bar, told us to sit anywhere but a dirty table she hadn't cleared yet. She came over took our drink order then cleared a table before bringing our drink. Then after awhile took our food order ( steak quesadilla n artichoke dip off the happy hour). She didn't ask if we wanted it off HAppy hour or main...... hostess from downstairs. Rough foid up. Our server upstairs is still chatting with coworker at bar. We are almost done eating n server from upstairs ask if we need anything. We said napkins.. she brought them over n left. After finishing our food 15 minutes go by she finally asks if we need a drink . We said no just the bill. Our bill is not happy hour prices on food just drink. She comes over to collect $, we asked about why we are charged so much for our food as we ordered off the happy hour. She said "oh I didn't know. " not - oh I forgot to ask or anything.... No I'm sorry or dang- I'll take it off. Wtf is wrong with her? Terrible n I will post this everywhere .

Nothing fancy, and definitely not comfortable for a long stay, but the food is good, portions large, and the prices are reasonable. The most interesting feature is a 12-foot grill where patrons can grill their own. Menu claims "Iowa prime" beef. It's certainly not USDA Prime, but it's flavorful. We opted for the kitchen to cook ours. Steaks were cooked perfectly, sides were plain and boring, but delicious.
