Every single time we've been there, we wait a minimum of 10 minutes before we are offered drinks. Today we had to actually get up to find someone to give our drink order to! We are left waiting Every. Single. Time. Food is mediocre. The breakfast buffet is equal to the free continental breakfast at a hotel... You know the stuff that is microwaved & processed, not homemade. We are very forgiving on service as nobody is perfect & everyone has a bad day. The restaurant is clean. Today was the breaking point for us. We will go to Floyd or New Hampton for breakfast from now on. Dave's is definitely not worth my time or money.

Both of the waitresses were excellent and made in-depth conversation with each member of our large party. The pricing was fantastic and I had plenty of leftover funding for a massive tip. Jazzy was a loving soul who took care of each of us. Cindy indulged each of us with plenty of witty banter and left us all with a smile on our face. While my first trip to Dave's was very short, the memories I made will last a lifetime. Rest in peace Dave, we'll be back soon.

Hungry in the Hawkeye State [St Ansgar IA]…read more After taking the self-guided tour at the SPAM Museum in Austin MN we decided to skip having lunch around the area and drove over the state line to Iowa and had lunch at this unassuming place called City Limits Bar & Grill. It was 21 miles from the Spam Museum to the restaurant. We arrived around 2:45p and the restaurant was surprisingly busy, the crowd was loud, various sports were showing on the flatscreens, everyone just having a great time. The waitress was busy but she single-handedly handled the crowd and the bar pretty well. On the way here we passed by seemingly countless rows of corn and wheat. When the waitress came to our table to get our orders we asked her what is a popular food Iowans like to eat. She pointed on the menu at the Old Fashioned Fritter sandwich. It is a center-cut pork loin, pounded and either grilled or dipped in their signature batter then fried. I ordered a 16-oz Bone-in French cut Ribeye. She said there are more cattle than people and the most pork LoL! They are also known for their steak. She wasn't lying... both the Iowa-style breaded pork fritter sandwich and the steak were delicious. It was just funny seeing the humungous pork tenderloin in between the bread and made the buns look tiny. The beef is so tender, juicy and flavorful. Looks like a popular place with the locals and visitors too with its warm, inviting ambiance and friendly staff. Review #3844

I had the Rueben. It was good with Thousand Island dressing served on the side. Crinkle cut fries were OK. Others had the Club Croissant (which was served on croissant bread instead of a traditional French croissant) and the burger. Burger looked pretty pedestrian but the diner in question enjoyed it. She said the coleslaw was "nothing to write home about" but that the cowboy beans were really good. Our waitress and the rest of the staff were amazing. I loved that they had jello as a side dish. The neighboring table got it and the day's variety was blue! :) It came with a dollop of whipped cream and it made me want to order it. Truly old school feel and the walls are lined with antiques and vintage senior photo panels from the local high school.

My mom and I shared the Classic Benedict and a blueberry pancake, and both were delicious. Small surprise: the blueberries came on top instead of baked inside the pancake, but honestly it still hit the spot My sister ordered the breakfast burrito and said it was solid, just not super memorable. My dad enjoyed the California Benedict though he wished he had ordered something with meat. Both the hash browns and sweet potato home fries were delicious. Overall the table was happy! Definitely a great brunch spot with good food, great service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Would come back!

They were fluffy. The bacon was a bit undercooked and missed a true smoked flavor. The Monte Cristo was flanked with two pieces of French toast. I was not really impressed as the bread fell apart quickly. The jam had a good flavor. I missed the berry jam and the deep fried batter from a traditional sandwich.

Both of our burgers came out well done. When I told the waitress that they were well done, she said "well I put it on the ticket" and walked away. I tried to take another bite but it really was way overdone and for me it was not worth eating (my husband ate his and said even though it was way overcooked he was too hungry to not eat it). Next time the waitress came around my husband flagged her down and told her that my burger was much worse than his and I really couldn't eat it. She said she would take it off the check , but didn't ask if I would like anything else or have it re-made. Luckily I had ordered a side salad and ended up just having that and eating something else once I got home.

It tasted fine but it completely over powered the lobster. There was no lobster flavor at all, so whats the point? I wouldn't order it again. Very nice looking place. Everything appeared clean. Booth seats were very uncomfortable. Too low, too far from table, not enough cushion. Sitting forward as I had to to reach, had the frame of the seat digging into my legs. I'm not short. But they were pretty. Our waiter was wonderful.
