    Cheeseburger and side of house made chips.  Chips were crispy and not greasy!
    Barry C.

    what a gem in the middle of Iowa. we arrived when they just opened for the day and it was open seating. we quickly settled on what to eat. Wife and the kids had a cheeseburger. it was good. the kids cheeseburger is huge (same size as the regular). I love how they give you options as to which potato product you would like. I settled for the special, chicken fried steak. it was delish. served over homemade mashed potatoes (still had some chunks of potato!) along with string beans gravy. So good and for $12?! In Seattle area that would cost you closer to $20. great value, great flavor and great service. I would not hesitate to come back.

    Gosh, I wanted to like this place so much more. We saw the the great reviews on Google and Yelp and were excited to try it out. Our party of 12 came on a Saturday evening right at opening and were able to get seated right away. The restaurant is a cute little corner shop with even it's own street sign pointing the way to the restaurant. Their menu was expansive and covered a broad range of cuisines so it was easy for everyone to find something that they liked. I ordered the grilled pork chop and had intended on splitting half of it to share with my Father-in-Law who ordered the Prime Rib special. The caesar salad was beautiful and tasted wonderful. Honestly the exact right amount of dressing as I didn't think it was too heavy or light. The pork came shortly thereafter and it's totally my perception but for a $16 entree, it looked really plain. I think a few garnishes, drizzle of a sauce, or something would have gone a long way (see photos). The flavor was good, it was juicy and had some notes of rosemary and garlic. Everything turned south when I cut into the pork and it was really pink. Now I recognize that the USDA says you can have some pink in your pork chop but I would've preferred it to be cooked through (as I assume most people) since it's been a longstanding truth. OR at the minimum, to ask if I wanted it pink or cooked through. I do think it was an honest mistake and when I let our server know, she froze, and then apologized and offered up an alternative. That was exactly the response you would hope and I ended up getting chicken tacos. So why 2 stars? I shortly became sick after our dinner and I assume the few bites of the pork chop had something to do with it. My stomach continued to hurt and feel unsettled the rest of the night. As for the replacement tacos and the other food- our party generally thought it was good but not quite 5 stars. There's ample opportunity to improve and become a 5 star restaurant we would consider giving them another shot when we're in Woodbine next.

    Stopped on our way home from Omaha tonight and will definitely be back! The food and drinks were great! It's hard to find good mixed drinks east of Omaha but Good Fellows has a great drink menu at reasonable prices. The dinner & lunch menus have a great selection, there should be something to make everyone happy with sandwiches, steaks, chicken, pizza, Mexican, and Asian selections. Many of the menu items look like they could be easily gluten free. The Prime Rib was delicious with a yummy Au jus that had just the right level of flavor and saltiness. I selected the soup starter which was tomato basil, this soup was so good, it reminded me of soup I've had at fancy places in Chicago- so good! Oh, I almost forgot about the deserts, they had a special Raspberry pie with homemade vanilla ice cream tonight but we opted for the strawberry cheesecake. The strawberry syrup tasted fresh and flavorful on top of yummy cheesecake. This hidden treasure is tucked away on Main Street and has a great atmosphere with great service. I'm already looking forward to coming back

    If you're traveling to or fro along I-80, this is a remarkably good stop…read more It's the very best of the Midwest--large portions, low prices, and friendly service. Its an unpretentious place in the middle of nowhere. We tried the burgers--which were awesome--but checked out other plates and I dont think there's a bad choice on the menu.

We figured that…read morewe'd have lunch near there, but it was lunch time at Neola, and after a stop at the nearly Kum & Go, I found Buck Snort via a Yelp search. And after a short drive, we arrived at this cool little restaurant in small town Downtown Neola. As it turns out, this place is part of a local chain with other locations in 6 other local spots. CONS - None PROS 1. Easy access from I-80, especially if you know how to find this place. 2. Warm and inviting interior, with nice booth/table seating, at counter ordering, and friendly local clientele. 3. Buck Snort is a largely a burger and fries joynt with a number of interesting menu twists and unique names like the Boom Boom Pow! Burger. 4. Dad's choice was the "Brunch Burger", including egg, bacon and tots. He really enjoyed it. 5. I went more conventional with a cheese burger and tots. Outstanding. It's always a good thing to hit the road again on a relatively full stomach.

    Decided to stop in for a quick lunch on a Monday. I've been here once before, but it was quite a…read morewhile ago, so I didn't really remember the quality of the food. We were seated right away, and it was a perfect day to sit outside. The hostess let us know they had workers outside, but we were totally okay with the noise, which ended up being very minimal. We didn't order any drinks, but for food, I decided to try the birria grilled cheese, which comes with one side, and I chose fries. Not only did it look so appetizing, but it tasted AMAZING. The bread had some sort of seasoning on it that added so much flavor to the sandwich. The fries were seasoned exceptionally well too. I'll definitely be back sometime soon to try more items. The food today was 10/10, and our waitress was very kind and attentive as well.

    We took the family to 712 Eat + Drink for lunch and overall had a good experience. The food had a…read morelot of promise, though a few dishes felt like they were just slightly off from being great. I had the Cubano sandwich, which was good overall, especially the smoky meat, but I think the coarse-ground mustard overpowered the flavours a bit and dulled the smokiness a bit. A plain yellow mustard might balance the sandwich better and let the smokiness shine through more. The sweet potato fries, however, were excellent. My wife Laura ordered Emily's Salad, which was pleasant and fresh, though we both thought it could have benefited from a little crunch--maybe some seeds or nuts added in. Our daughter Alex had the birria tacos and carne asada fries. The tacos were tasty, though a little on the small side, but the carne asada fries were fantastic. Umai! (I am a Rengoku fan; if you know, you know.) I highly recommend it. Our other daughter, Sam, ordered the birria grilled cheese and elote fries, and both were really good. Her cherryade was especially refreshing. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, though the dining area and patio felt a bit bare. A few plants outside and inside would really warm the place up and give it more character. The music was pretty good with indie hits in there. I also tried the Old Fashioned. It was definitely strong, which I appreciated, but it felt like it was missing a touch of sweetness or something to round it out. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, and I'd absolutely go back and try more on the menu. Their waitstaff was top-notch and really were on their game. The restaurant has good ingredients and solid ideas--it just feels like a few flavour balances could be dialed in a little more.

    It's not often places make me ask the dear waitress actual questions about what I'm tasting, and I…read morehad to ask TWICE! First off, the gravy on the Chicken Fried Chicken is SAUSAGE gravy (no actual sausage bits, but they serve breakfast until 4p and it's their sausage & biscuit gravy!) unless you're prepared for it, it kinda stops ya in your tracks; IF you've never had it. It's SO GOOD. And we had it tonight! Well T did... and lemme tell you it's goooood. Very rich! But highly recommended. A warm baked potatoe with just sour cream and butta and AHMAZING baked beans with smoked pulled pork! I snagged their special, the 3-piece Walleye with fries, and either soup or salad. Traditional salad with a sweet ranch (wasn't my favorite), and crisp tomato. The Walleye... was superb, and if you're a crispy fry person, THESE are for you! Their coleslaw was also sweetly based, and I gladly passed that to T (just not a sweet based kinda gal). Also grabbed their Rustic Remedy - with a kick - and wooosaw was there one! Fruity, citrusy, clean and refreshing just as they described. Not a whole lot of folks there tonight but if you're in the area, or want some excellent eats, I suggest you stop by. We will DEFINITELY be back!
