We were a group of 14 who recently ate at the Brown Bottle. The food was excellent. The ambiance…read moreenjoyable. The service - it could be better. They were busy so that was probably part of it. Let's start with the ambiance. I'm not sure what the building was used for originally. Maybe a hotel? But it is very big, historic, multiple rooms, just an interesting and cool space. All of the food was delicious. For appetizers we had the sauteed mushrooms, meatballs, salsiccia, and garlic bread. You'll want extra garlic bread to soak up the sauces in all of these dishes. Generous portions, delicious flavors, all winners. Our group had many different entrees, and everyone was pleased. Portions were large, so most people ended up with boxes to take home leftovers. We were too full for dessert. My only reservation about Brown Bottle was the service. They were busy. But the servers just seemed inexperienced. They brought all the appetizers but didn't notice we had no plates, so we had to go and ask for those. They also never refilled our waters. Pretty much every glass was empty. When we asked for additional drinks, she brought those, but we never saw any water pitchers, and she only refilled the specific people who asked for additional water. That just seems like something an experience server will notice. Nevertheless, I'd definitely go back. All the dishes our group tried were delicious!

We had a variety of food and everything was delicious. I had chicken Dijon with twice baked potato, and it was yummy. I was so full from the delicious salad with creamy garlic dressing and a piece of bread that I could hardly eat it. It will be great leftovers. Husband had prime rib with twice baked potatoes and he loved it. Others had the salmon which was good with the vegetable mix and another had Greek shrimp. A friend had the prosciutto with fresh mushrooms and it was huge! We all tasted it and ended up taking half of it home. Manicotti was tasty as was the orange roughy. Good food, great service, & a great atmosphere!

Not sure why because it was in the mid 70s outside. Friend got the shrimp in lobster sauce (which I thought was brave). I got the orange chicken. We both ordered white rice but it came out with fried rice. We didn't send it back but I think the white rice would have been just as well. Fried rice needed a LOT of soy sauce and there were some bits of mystery meat in it. My orange chicken was OK. I didn't try the shrimp in lobster sauce but it should have been served in a bowl, not on a serving platter. The egg rolls were just weird and were pink inside. There was a bit of cabbage with whatever the pink stuff was. Service was good though. Order at counter and food is delivered to table. (We did have to shout over the fans.) We forgot to pick up silverware and the server grabbed that and some duck sauce for us. Fortune cookies delivered to table after we ate. A couple of large work group next to us raved about their meals so you might give it a go. The lo mein noodles that were delivered to them looked great. I will probably suggest another spot if we're back in Waterloo.

That's why I was EXTREMELY surprised to find authentic Mexican food at Chapala in Waterloo. It's a family restaurant that is now 18 years old ...and the recipes are from the kitchen of the grandmother of the owners. The chips and salsa are made on premises and they're very tasty. There's a ton of luncheon specials in the $9-12 range. And the food is REALLY tasty. I had the fresh steak quesadilla with the grilled fresh veggies and it was the best Mexican plate I've had in Iowa in the last five years. Top notch food. Top notch friendly staff. And they even carry Mexican Coca Cola and Mexican Pepsi. Most highly recommended!
