Cottonwood Canyon — Restaurant in Cedar Falls

Masks Not Required! Today is a beautiful mother’s day in Cedar Falls. We took our family of seven out to breakfast here. The food has been amazing both times we have came here. A brief encounter with the owner showed genuine compassion for his customers. The chef’s preparation of our meal was nothing less than superb! You can actually see and taste the care taken to ensure that every bite will be savored. However, the wait staff or gals at the counter are like the earlier reviews stated, overly WOKE. The mask double standards are despicable. The owner who I believe to be a genuine and caring person, talks to customers out side with a mask around his neck not socially distancing. The chef who you can see preparing food while waiting in line also is not adhering to the strictest of face covering standards, wearing his mask over his mouth and not his nose. Yet the Woke girls want to remind customers they need masks and to point to signs and tell the customers about the number of signs they have up. Unlike other reviewers, I will be returning and hope they will in time, do so as well. I will not let a few bad apples spoil this experience. Nevertheless, I am writing this review because I want to see this business be successful. I hope the next time I patron this establishment I will not exposed to this ignorance. Please remove your mask signs and let your customers ware them if they choose to. -A question to the WOKE girls... why don’t you make your customers put their masks back on every time you wait on your tables? Is there a scientific document that states COVID cannot be transmitted by people sitting? Please take your signs down and stop the ignorance... and I will be happy to generously...

Ok, I have a love hate relationship with Cottonwood canyon. Their food is awesome, however, the service is rather slow. I would not go to their location on Washington unless you have ample time to spare i.e. do not go over your lunch break, even ordering pick up is dicey. Also, the owner who cooks on their food truck has a TERRIBLE attitude. I ordered the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and it has Canadian bacon on it and not regular bacon though the menu just said bacon. At their restaurant I have gotten regular bacon so I was not thrilled to see a different meat. I told the owner just because I feel like that is an incorrect description on the menu and he was super rude and acted as if it did not matter to him at all. Love their food, but I normally try to rush through the experience because their...

This may be my favorite restaurant in Cedar Falls. I have not had a bad thing here. I love the grilled cheeses, they are definitely a favorite, but the curry bowl is also so good and in the summer, you can't go wrong with jerk chicken on a salad. Everything is homemade and fresh. Do yourself a favor, and have the house dressing on the salad - it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. And the coffee is out of this world! The atmosphere is homey (it's in a house, after all) and casual. The staff is always friendly, smart, and funny. Sometimes it takes a little time to get your food when it's busy, but it's always worth the wait. My dad hates to go out to eat. But if we say we are going to Cottonwood Canyon, he can't there fast enough. HIGHLY...
