Let me first start by saying I have yet to have anything other than an amazing experience at this establishment. The food, atmosphere, staff, pricing, and flavor have always been top quality. Today's experience started at 12:30 at the start of the lunch rush. The Host said to the small group ahead of me that it would be a 20 minute wait, upon a quick glance at the dinning room that seems fair. They were quickly seated after only 5 minutes roughly and then another group of two came in after I had given my name. I only waited roughly another 5 minutes then was asked to follow the host. They seemed to be a little understaffed, but this does not deter them from delivering top quality service which is impressive. Then after about a minute I was asked what I wanted to drink, to which I asked for a sample of LeinenKugel Summer Peach, I was served the sample and then bought a full glass because for being a non-beer drinker myself it was really good! Then I ordered fish and chips. It came out after about 15 minutes, again this was very prompt for being so busy. My fish was expertly fried, the breading was seasoned to perfection and the coleslaw was immaculate! My fries were not in the basket initially because of a minor misstep in the kitchen and obviously wasn't a big deal because the fish a very generous serving and in two piece so I told the owner who came out to apologies and help alleviate the staff issue that I was not worried. He thanked me for understanding and then bustled off. My bill was under $30 dollars and for the amount of food I recieved and the quality that is a steal! This is a place that if your casually dressed you will fit right in, but if it is more dressy casual then still good! If your in Waverly and need a bite to eat please go to this establishment and order anything off the menu and be prepared to have a truly wonderful...
Read moreOMG!! I'm so glad We decided to stop here for date night this evening. We had the large order of Onion Rings, which were extra amazing from the seasoning to breading and dipped in ranch was absolutely to die for. We chose to pay the extra amount to get the "signature side", which was a garden salad. That was the best choice because it was so fresh and delicious. My Husband and I both chose to do burgers, he ordered the Sasquatch Burger, which was massive and looked amazing. He stated it was even better than it sounded on the menu and he was glad he chose to get the salad to get his veggies in, since there aren't any on the burger. I got difficult with my order because I wanted the Big Smokey deli sandwich, but wanted to make it a burger and they accommodated my request, with a little extra amount needing to be added to the cost of the deli sandwich, but the flavor and how filling it was made it totally worth every penny. Our waiter was great, he didn't hover over Us like some do when they don't have a lot of people in their section, bit stayed attentive while doing his other tasks. I will be recommending this restaurant to friends who would like to enjoy a fantastic meal and great atmosphere. Bathroom were clean and stocked with paper products, so not only did they do amazing with the food, the cleanliness of the dinning area, but they were definitely on top of the bathrooms, which can be looked over or forgotten about very easily, but overall, I give them a 10/10 ⭐ this evening. Thank you for a great first...
Read moreDelicious Fried Pickles! A tenderloin worth traveling for! Seriously, after living in Minnesota for 25 years, I think it should be renamed "Land of 10,000 ways to mess up a tenderloin." When I visit Iowa, it's a tenderloin I'm after. This place delivered! It was a thing of beauty (sorry I forgot to take a picture), tenderized just right with a well seasoned crumb breading. Served with your choice of toppings on the side so you can create your perfect bite. My mom got the Reuben and it was stellar too. And the fried pickles! They were better than the ones at the Minnesota State Fair. A good quality dill chip pickle in a seasoned batter with a light crispy crunch. And it's a huge portion. We took them home for leftovers, but they were better fresh. You definitely need a big crew to finish these! I wonder if they would consider doing a smaller batch tasting menu? A perfect combo would be a fried sampler of pickles, onion rings and schnitzel. Regardless, it's all delicious. Service was friendly if a little slow on the drink refills, even for the beer. Atmosphere leans heavy to the sports bar world, there are some unnecessary flashing lights on things that are distracting, but at least it's not too loud. Booths are big and comfortable and it's not too dark. Prices are comparable to the Twin Cities, which might seem highish to locals, but it's definitely high quality food and beer. And as I said before, you can't get this kind of pork tenderloin in the Cities, so it's...
