I had the delicious BBQ pork burger with cheese and enjoyed its glorious Smokey flavor. I can't say I've been to that many burger cafe's but this was definitely a great experience. The staff/cook crew were extremely friendly. I was nervous by the long line, but they grilled the food up pretty quick and it was all fab. Enjoyed drinks came with meal. Definitely recommend!

Is this absolutely MY best (aka favorite) burger...? Is it the best burger I've personally had in…read moreIowa...? Probably not. BUT it is the best burger I've ever had out of a gas station in Iowa...! Actually... I'm not exactly sure which way this place actually goes... Is this a gas station that sells food... Or a restaurant that sells gas? Potato...potatoe! Lol And it IS a very good burger overall too...! But not only do they serve burgers... They have other menu selections... Mostly all deep fried and grill options... And ice cream! I've seen signs for Iowa's Best Burger Cafe for years while running back and forth on I-80 from the Des Moines metro... Kellogg is about halfway between Newton and Grinnell. We've never stopped here until this past weekend when we were on our way home from the What Cheer IA flea market... Iowa's Best Burger Cafe is just off the highway... The first thing I noticed as the GPS said our route was about to end... It looked like it ended at an Amoco gas station... Huh? And then I noticed the signage for the Iowa's Best Burger Cafe on the building... Oh... So we're here...? Not exactly what I expected..., but I eat at food trucks too so it wasn't going to stop me. I did glance at my girlfriend to see if I could tell whether she was feeling it or not... I think she was just really hungry at that point and didn't really care. Lol There's ample parking. As you enter the building it kind of looks like a standard gas station convenience store...until you turn and look to your Right. Red plastic booth seating. There are two counters and a case that sit adjacent to one another. The counter you order at also displays the ice cream. There's a case displaying some ready to eat options. The register is on a shorter counter closest to the entrance. It's an open kitchen. There is also another small room of seating further to the left as you face the counters. The tables are kind of faux marble. Napkins, salt, pepper, ketchup, and mustard are available in each booth. We were greeted as we walked and I let them know it was our first time there and we didn't know the drill. They let us know you order standing there at the counter. Take a seat. They bring the food out to you when it's ready. You pay at the register when you are done. Cash or card...and there is an ATM on site. They bus your table. There are a couple of menu placards on the counter where you place your order... The 16 flavors of ice cream selection are plainly labeled. The two ladies behind the counter were very helpful and were both personable! We ordered: 2x half pound burger combos (one with cheese, bacon, onions and pickles and one with cheese, onions, pickles, mayo, and lettuce) 1x upgraded side to garlic mushrooms 1x upgraded side to onion rings 2x fountain drinks (Coke products...comes with combo) 1x mozarella sticks 1x two scoop bowl of ice cream 1x single cone of ice cream The wait for food wasn't long. Everything was served hot and fresh! They'd asked us if we wanted ranch... My girlfriend always wants ranch! Not only did they bring us ranch... They brought us a HUGE squeeze bottle of ranch! This is how every restaurant should bring you ranch! While we dined in (as did a couple of other customers) most of the business appeared to be take out. One pro tip... The standard half pound burger comes with two patties. I heard a customer ask a guy, at the booth next to her, how many patties he had on his burger... Huh? He had four patties on his burger... A full pounder! So there has to be a way to add an additonal patty (or patties) too... If you want a bigger burger... Ask...! The bathrooms...not horrible. The food was all great. Good service. No complaints. I wouldn't hesitate to stop in here again! And I know what to expect next time...!

Otherwise, I loved the vibe in here and there were a ton of 4 person high top tables you could seat yourself at that offered great views of the tvs. There were also a few larger tables for big groups, as well as ample bar seating.

My wife and I came in tonight to give it a try since the change in concept for this building…read more Positives: The food was delicious, I had the chopped salad, my wife had the Cobb salad with shrimp and we got some riblets. Negatives: Almost everything else. I hope the owner sees this and is able to regain control of the restaurant before the staff completely ruins their investment. We arrived around 7:30 on a Monday night. We came in to a sign that said Please Wait to be Seated. We stood at the entrance for a bit, but the one employee we did see avoided eye contact and didn't acknowledge us. We did see someone in the bar area, so we decided to come in and sit at the bar. Some ambiance notes: No music was playing so all conversations and noises were intrusive into our dining experience . The multiple tvs were tuned to mostly regular tv shows with no captions. One tv was playing the bachelorette at a volume that made it so we heard every s and p that was said and about nothing else. No sports were on. The lights were as bright as a retail store. I told my wife it felt like we were eating in a Target. The worst part by far was the table of servers that were sitting in uniform drinking. On duty staff was hanging out at that table as well. Conversations revolved around getting drunk. How much money they didn't make, what guests were annoying, etc. The manager (I think off duty), was sitting at the bar involved in a drama filled FaceTime session with the volume up. Now I know all about her childcare issues. She also was bad mouthing the restaurant to her friend. Service was impacted by the amount of time the bartender spent interacting with the employee table. Quick note, one of the servers that was drinking was messing around with an order on the Toast POS handheld and the bartender was yelling across the room to cut it out and exit out of the order he had pulled up. We had almost no interaction from the bartender. She asked if we needed boxes while we were still in the middle of eating our meal. When we were ready to go it took some effort to get our check, because she was hanging out at the employee table. The whole experience made it likely that we won't return, although we would consider getting food to go. What really needs to happen is a culture change with your staff before it's too late, probably involving some personnel changes including the manager. Right now the foxes are running the hen house. If things don't change soon, I would set the over/under for going out of business at 6 months.
