    Before I came to Iowa City for a conference? i researched places to eat. This was one I wanted to…read morego to. They're well reviewed on Yelp, which I value. My friend from work and I came here tonight. Wow. They have an informal lounge downstairs and a more formal dining room upstairs. The lounge has the same menu plus a lounge menu. So we chose more choice. The lounge was kinda dark and it's not fancy. But it's clean and open. It's fine. The server was terrific. Ash accommodated our need for separate checks (for us each to bill for our meal). She was attentive and pleasant. I asked her what she liked better between a couple of things and she gave me an honest answer. I followed her recommendation, The beet salad was lovely. the dressing had some goat cheese in it and was delicious. The fresh beets on the side really worked with the dressing. My friend got the cheese platter to start and there was lots of cheese. He loved it. He got the lounge version of the salmon, which he thought was great. I got the Artic Char, which was delicate and phenomenal. It was topped with pieces of lobster and caviar like eggs. The fish was delicate and the sauce rich, but not overpowering. It was delightful. We both loved our meals and highly recommend Orchard Green.

    What an incredible find ! This is probably the most delicious food I have had in the last 20+…read moreyears. I picked this place just from a random search on Yelp. First, this is fancier than your usual, casual restaurant. It is also more expensive than your usual, casual restaurant (main courses avg. $45/dish). That being said, you can dine on the first floor (the lounge) or the second floor (main dining room). Service was good, the server was very pleasant. The ambiance was chill, soft music playing in the background, def not a casual restaurant... The menu was not 20 pages long, just 2 pages, with a great variety of dishes. First, had the crab cakes, 2 small square ones on the plate, I wish there had been more, because they were just amazing... Then came the lobster bisque, very tasty, really hit the spot... 2 main dishes were tried: Pistachio crusted white fish and Jerk chicken. The fish was cooked to perfection, and the flavors on every bite were absolutely delicious, and the potato pancake was super tasty and a perfect complement to the fish. The chicken (1/2 chicken) was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly in my opinion, the little potatoes and broccoli were very tasty also. For dessert, crème brûlée... Pretty amazing as well. I feel this is a place you bring someone you want to impress or just treat to an amazing gastronomical experience.

    Before I started the 2 hour drive back to Chicago suburbs, I knew we had to check out the Machine…read moreShed. The location was very easy to find. It helps that the restaurant also has a giant sign so it would be very hard to miss the building. I entered on the side where, I think, I drove over the curb to get to the parking lot but there was no big issue. It also helps that I got the first parking spot luckily. Outside the building is very nice. My daughter noticed, and the loved, the pig in the front and the tractor. Once we got inside, she was mesmerized with everything the place had to offer. I also enjoyd how they offered a toy tractor to play with while we are ordering and eating. For my late breakfast, I had the Country Breakfast with the country fried steak, sunny side up eggs, shredded hash browns, and toast. I thought we could get the shredded hash brown casserole but must of been a mixup between me and our waitress or the cooks in the back. The country fried steak was delicious. I enjoyed the rest and it is your typical breakfast restaurant...good ole hearty food. My daughter, surprising, ate most of her food and hers + mines toast which was rare. Of course, we had to leave the restaurant with a new brand toy. She thought the one we got the table was hers to keep as well but she quickly understood that it was not and she got another toy to play with. Overall our server was nice and the food was delicious. I would return in the future if I am in the area again.

Tried the catfish & came with veggies + mashed potatoes. The chicken pot pie was corn-starch thick & scant on chicken. Unique crust that was more like pizza dough. Tasted OK. Meal also included rolls + 2 sides served family style(coleslaw, cottage cheese, applesauce). Prices very reasonable. Skip the country store- overpriced attempt to be cracker barrel.
