This is a charming breakfast & lunch spot, just south of Sioux City, IA - a few miles away from the…read moreairport. The staff is friendly and make you feel very welcome. When you walk through the door, there is a long, 1940's style soda fountain counter right in front of you. Wooden booths flank the two windows, and the remainder of the space is taken up by tables and chairs. A gift shop is off to the right. They go all out for holidays and a Halloween animatronic greeted us when we entered (this is written in October.) While deciding what to order, sodas were accompanied by ice cold frosted mugs. Menu is small and they were out of a couple of items. The food is ok, but there were two issues which resulted in the four stars, instead of five. 1.) The grilled cheese sandwich was grilled in grease that left an odd taste. Not enough to deter eating it, but definitely noticeable. 2.) The chicken salad tasted like it was made with a cheap sandwich dressing, not mayonnaise - a little bit disappointing. Service was quick and super friendly. Prices are very reasonable. Definitely worth a repeat visit if only to see the seasonal decorations. By the way, you can only pay by cash or check. No credit cards accepted.

Well there is no better place to go to for that hospitality and local business owned operation than Kate's! I am planning to go back for a second trip this week and I want to ask for Kate's signature food to be able to give a review on some of their favorites. But just on first approach, it is in the most wonderful corridor in Sioux City it has that 1950s hometown feel to it. Inside the restaurant it is a cozy environment that is so welcoming to its patrons. It is clean, well decorated and inviting. Please note this is a cash or check only operation so no credit cards!

Food: Absolutely amazing. I have loved every single thing I've eaten. The only item I couldn't…read morefinish was the garlic cheese curds. Incredible, but they were VERY garlicky and after about 6 they were a little hard to keep eating. Haha They would be wonderful to share as an app in a bigger group. There's a restaurant 'side' and a bar 'side.' Family friendly. Bullshooters, pull tabs, and Golden Tee game on the bar side. Great TV's. Could be a fun place to watch a game. The food is elevated bar food. And AMAZING ranch dressing. Good ranch is exceedingly important to me! LoL We've been here 4 times in 9 days. From 'discovering' it for ourselves. If that helps you make your decision to come here. LoL
