    Entry room - A girl with dark hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a navy blue sports jersey with white accents and the number 1 on the back, is walking away from the camera in a restaurant. The restaurant has booths with green upholstery, a mirror on the wall, and several diners seated at tables. The ceiling has recessed lighting, and a person on the left is holding a plate with food.

    Fast and delicious. It's you're disappointed you aren't hungry. Delicious breakfast #6. Sausage and fresh gravy. Seat yourself. You'd pay twice the amount at a city chain restaurant. Good okd fashion hometown cookin.

    Solid food and great service. One of my favorite small town diners I've been to. Always a pleasant experience!

    I've been here a couple of times. The food is always good and it's not super expensive. I especially like their breakfast.

    Since the Catfish Po' Boy was out of this world, I think it's safe to say the rest of Rodney's food…read moreis...Hats off to the simple selection, quality ingredients, and soulful touch to each meal. I will certainly return when in Waterloo and plan to spread to word to friends, family, and colleagues.

    American While a…read morebunch of us were in Waterloo for work, we wanted to grab lunch but did not want the usual suspect chain places. A quick Yelp search gave us Rodney's as an option so we popped over. Rodney is the owner, cook, front of the house and probably washing the dishes as well- at least during lunch when we were there. The restaurant is small-ish in size - booths in the middle and along the side. There is a counter where you order- menu is on the wall behind the main counter. Place your food and drink order, pay Rodney and grab a seat- he cooks it to order so sit tight and you will be rewarded. I went with a Shrimp po-boy and I have to say, it was one of the better ones I have had outside of Louisiana. Coworker went with a burger that was, in his words, outstanding and it was quite large. Forgot what the other two had but all the dishes came with seasoned fries. Overall it was a great find and surely better than the usual chain places. Prices were very good and everyone left full and happy. Definitely worth a visit if in the area. Beware the metered parking on the street so you don't make a donation to the Waterloo po-po...

    I really wanted to love this place but it was a big let down…read more First, we were there on a Friday, just before what is likely a very busy time. We sat at the bar. The servers were there, obviously waiting for customers to start arriving, and they were all congregating at the end of the bar, chatting it up. It was super unprofessional and pretty annoying. We were glad when the food came out quickly so we could just eat and leave. To be honest, I don't recall what my husband ordered. I got the pork tenderloin. The tenderloin was very tough and had zero flavor. Like, I don't think they even put salt in the coating, let alone any other seasonings. This is Iowa, if you can't make anything else at all, you should at least have a decent pork tenderloin. This was our second time trying the place. Both instances were equally underwhelming. I wanted this to be our "go to" place but sadly we won't return.

    Called ahead of time to watch the Iowa State game. They said they'd have it on with volume. We…read moreasked politely to have the music turned down to hear the game. They refused. I went to the bathroom and heard the dish boy/cook using foul language stating he wasn't going to accommodate the request. He was super rude and sarcastically clapping at the game to make a point. We planned to all have dinner but left to a more accommodating restaurant. Any restaurant in town would be more accommodating and respectful than this place. We'll never return or spend a dime here again.
