    a sunset over a lake
    Nicole S.

    Pretty great campground with plenty of clean space, good bar food, cold drinks, and a beautiful view. Great live music for memorial day weekend. The bathroom situation is less than ideal, especially on busy weekends. Plenty of patio seating. It's good for all ages.

    One of my favorite parts of road tripping is finds gems such as this one. One of the best lake bars in the country in my humble opinion. Lake Macbride is a blast, and it's awesome to have a bar on it to enjoy some good music and tasty libations. The bar food is simple but very good and perfectly fried. They have different themed party's every weekend, from May to September. I will be back, very impressed!

    A little spendy, there was 5 of us, 4 had two drinks and one had a pop, we got two 14" pizza's a Taco and Meat our bill was $76.00. But it's pretty much one of the only place to get food when your boating. The service was was and friendly! If your out on the lake and hungry this is the place to go!

    Service was kind, but the cook couldn't keep up with business. We left after 30 minutes with no food in sight & lots of folks ahead of us.

    Terrible service. Rude staff, not welcoming at all. $8.99 for five whole jalapeño poppers. Would not recommend.

(3 sandwich choices and 3 salad choices) Service started off good with a waitress, taking our orders and getting us drinks. Once we had placed our orders is when the problems started to happen. We brought in a group of approximately 35 to 40 people. (We had reserved a party room) Sitting at long tables with approximately with 8 people to a table. We waited and waited for our order to be taken with some tables receiving their food before we had even ordered. The waiters and waitresses slowly went from table to table taking approximately 20-30 minutes in all to take our orders. We were the last table to place our order and people were being served prior to us even ordering. We waited for over an hour and never received our food. Some people were even done at point. Needless to say, we were a little exasperated and finally asked them just to bag our food. Believe it or not, that took them another 30 minutes. In all we were there for close to two hours without being served. And when we asked our waiter, why it was taking so long he informed us that they weren't expecting our group to be so large. I think I would've preferred a simple "I'm sorry, we messed up," or even if a manager had just shown up to let us know that they had forgotten our order completely, rather than the lame excuses that they came back with. I don't know if this was just a bad day for Blackstone or if this is what can be expected from them, but our experience there was horrible. Unfortunately, as we were from out of town, we can't go back again to see if the service will be any better. I do not recommend this place. The food may be fabulous, but we'll never know. Also be forewarned if you have any complaints the management does not care.

She left... she didn't leave in a huff but she did arrive with an attitude which she took it with her when she left... probably a good thing for all. It's not always easy to find a table for a big party like that at the last minute on a Sunday. Rolls to kick things off... always good. Steak all around for us... well, chicken and fries for the small one in the group... the steak was supposed to be slightly pink on the inside - nope. The salad usually comes first and then the dinner - nope... half way through eating the dinner, the salad arrived with an apology and comment that we probably still didn't want it... but we accepted the salads anyway. I do like a good salad. And then we tasted the tardy salads... perhaps it was a new salad maker that was anxious about putting toooooo much salt in the salad - it can happen, right! Maybe that's why it was delayed. Their anxiousness was well founded... there was waaaay tooo much salt for a Caesar salad that should have been all about balanced ingredients, even when it comes already made to the restaurant. We've eaten at many Longhorn Steakhouses over the years, sadly this was a swing and a miss restaurant experience tonight for this Longhorn Steakhouse. It happens, right?!

Let me first say they were very friendly and said hi right away and took our orders. Food very good. I would get this take out all the time if I lived there. The one downside as another reviewer said is not very clean. I got wet paper towels from restroom and wiped the table down as it had grease remnants from last person. The restroom needs a serious cleaning. There is a full size ladder in there, that is what the toilet paper sits on a rung. Which is what they have been stepping on with their shoes! The sink and toilet were not clean. There is also a storage tub on wheels in there with a giant pack of toilet paper sitting in it. Taking up room. Two wall soap dispensers, one must be broken and is black with dirt. No note on it so one tries that one first. It should be removed. The second one itself the outer soap dispenser is also black and very dirty. A little soap came out. The door is very hard to shut. The light switch is covered in built up dirty grime. Basic restaurant rules is if the bathroom is clean they keep the kitchen clean. I am hoping the owners read this and get the restroom cleaned and scrubbed. It certainly gave me pause to try the food but we had already ordered. Like I said the food was great, crab Rangoons were great. It's hard to say it was just this day because the build up in the restroom was more than a few months worth. Service and food were very good so that's the reason for four stars. Fried rice we thought was very good.

Our server Grace was good and all the others hustling around and doing the line dancing keeps the vibes high. It was cooked to our liking and it hasn't been a problem the handful of times we have gone in the past 15 years. It really does take a well oiled crew and process to keep up with customers and all the complaints on getting that meat to the perfect doneness. I'd say Coralville site has it down well. I believe I even eye-witnessed a manager being very professional addressing a customers complaint most likely due to the doneness of their steak. Prime rib - medium rare - that's the ticket. I wouldn't want to get much else really as charcoal homegrown family steak at home can't be beat. However, my husband doesn't really dabble in prime rib and this has been the best around. You really have to enjoy the fatty goodness. Au jus and horse radish sauce goes great with it. I also do enjoy their baked potato with the oil and salted skin. Caesar salad to add some greens was good along with the yummy buns that we had no reason to add to the meal but dang too tempting to not nibble on them while we wait. We don't get out to steak joints often since we eat that at home but that prime rib sure is a treat.
