Okoboji Dough Company — Restaurant in Arnolds Park

First off, we love brick oven pizzas so this should’ve been a win for us, but it was not. When we first got there, it was not busy yet so the atmosphere was OK. But as time went on and the restaurant got busier it just got louder and louder. There is absolutely no sound dampening anywhere so it is extremely loud and everything echoes. I’m on disability for chronic migraines and I wanted to get out of that restaurant as fast as possible, so that was one issue. The other issue was when we ordered drinks, my daughter ordered a Mr Pibb. What he brought to us was just a glass of carbonated water. We told him that we think the syrup is out. He just looked at the cup and said Yep we’re out what else do you want to drink. We actually had to ask him to change out the syrup so she could actually have what she wanted to drink. I ordered water, and the water tasted like it was actually contaminated with something. We brought it up to the server and he said there’s nothing that he can do. I ended up just ordering a can of beer so I could have something to drink. Then, When we got our pizza, it was just OK. The actual toppings tasted good, but the outside crust had absolutely no flavor. We probably won’t be back unless they fix the issue with their water, add sound dampening of some sort, and maybe put some butter or garlic or something on the crust so it doesn’t just...

I have been in the food service business for over 25 years one of the people at our table owns a restaraunt. The food was great, the service was lacking. We ordered 3 pizzas, Wings, and the raviolis and drinks, toward the end of our meal our server spilled a whole beer and soda on two orf the leftover pizzas we had. I get it happens sometimes but when you are spending 165.00 for 3 people I would have thought a gift card for another visit or money off our bill would have been a good resolution to come back , our toddler and son where drenched with beer and water. We felt bad for our server and realize it was an accident, however it could have been made right. The servers were overall just not in the game. Food was fantastic though! Maybe we will try takeout next time it was also very hot in the restaraunt. Reading other reviews from people you might want to talk to servers about attentiveness, and being friendly its almost like we were an...

Went in for my first visit, was unsure what to order being that I have not ate here prior. Service was very prompt and friendly, zero wait time to be seated as there was only two other small sized groups already dinning in. Waitress was friendly and very attentive. Ordered some fried pickles as an appetizer while we looked over the menu options. Despite the fact that the pizza choice we ended up ordering wasn't my first preference (the boyfriend took the lead and ordered the BBQ pizza) was hot and delicious none the less! Served in just a few minutes after our order was placed. Overall I personally was quite satisfied with not only quality of service and of food as well as the price; fair and minimal IMO. Total charge for two drinks, full sized pizza and appetizer was just under $40 (after tax and tip for service included) so no doubt I will be looking forward to eating here again and certainly...
