The Train Station looks pretty basic from the outside, so I wasn't expecting much. I stopped here…read moremostly because it was about the halfway point on a long drive. Turns out, I'm really glad I did. Inside, it's surprisingly nice, with a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. I happened to be there on Monday, when they have a half-price wing special for dine-in, so that was an easy choice. The wings were very good, but the real surprise was the steak fries. They have a simple seasoning that somehow makes them completely addictive. I was already full, ate every one of them, and still wanted more. Another small thing I appreciated: the iced tea is actually brewed tea, not the syrupy stuff that comes out of a soda machine. That tells you something about the place. The north wall opens up toward a wetland area, and they have fans going, making that space surprisingly comfortable even on a warm summer day. It's a really nice setup. The staff were super friendly, the prices seemed very reasonable, and everything just felt easy and unpretentious. What started as a convenient halfway stop turned into a place I'd actually seek out. I think I'll be planning future road trips with The Train Station in mind. Highly recommended.

Cedar Rock Grill fits a mold of restaurants I ate at when visiting Iowa for business: decent food…read moreat a fair price with no frills. Going in the door, the design aesthetic is inspired by barns and hunting in the back 40. I see lots of wood and reeds, carefully arranged to give the impression that I have walked in off the street of small town Iowa and into someone's private hunting club. Frankly, it's a quirky ambiance. With that said, while it wasn't my cup of tea, the food was actually pretty tasty if not particularly special. I had the ribs and wings combo (bourbon sauce on both) and the soup of the day: chicken tortilla. The soup was actually quite good, but the wings were a tad dry. The ribs were fine--reminded me of Famous Dave's. The wait staff were friendly but not all that attentive. We waited a long time for the bill and drink refills. Give it a try if you are passing through and want to skip the 100th Pizza Ranch seen on the trip.

I didn't try one of the shakes, but I've heard they're really good. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're passing through Orange City. Good food, good service, and worth a stop.

This is a quintessential classic humble Midwest steakhouse. The proper thing to wear is a truck. A…read morePrius would be completely inappropriate. If I had a visitor in the area from out of the country I would bring them here. It's offers more than a great hand-carved steak, it's a cultural experience. Doon is a really small orderly Iowa town. There is no curb and gutter in most of the town, but there are families, solid rural businesses and several churches. The steakhouse is regionally well known. Friday and Saturday nights are extremely busy. The decor is not ornamental nor even oriented around a particular theme. Here the draw is the meat. The dinners come with bowl of beef barley soup (delicious), a simple side salad, a dinner roll, and a plate with carrots, celery and pickles, and choice of potato (fries, steakhouse fries, broasted wedges, baked potato, or homemade hashbrowns). Right now I am just enjoying the afterglow of having enjoyed a great steak. There is much more that I could write, but instead I'll end by saying - just go, you won't regret it.
