Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Gygy S.

I have lived in the area for 11 years and this was the first time I stopped in during a girls night dinner with my friend who was familiar with Rubaiyat. The food was amazing I enjoyed it! Every single dish was so flavorful and I recommend all of them! My friend who is Vegan had plenty of options and the chef and waitresses were very accommodating with giving her options. It was very nice calm environment to enjoy your meal! Very friendly staff and great menu. Definitely will be stopping again and adding to places to eat! Wednesday $2 off appetizers and $5 wine perfect for a night out!

Bread that comes with most meals - olive oil salt and pepper (already ground) at table

The food was excellent! It's pricier but probably worth it here. I would recommend they add more dressing to the side salad. We had the Chicken Carbonara and Seafood Pasta. It was a Thursday night and was pretty busy.

We had by far one of the best dining experiences here. The staff is friendly and the ambiance is cozy and warm. The food is top notch and well thought out. They have a great wine and drink selection as well. Steph and Kim are awesome hosts! The chef even checked on us and was down to earth and great to meet!

Greek style rock shrimp - yummy!

This place is amazing. I had my eye on eating here since I started planning this trip…read more We started our meal with Roumel's Meat Sticks, which are Filipino pork BBQ. These were pork and delivered by Roumel himself. Turns out he is from Chicagoland as well. Moved here and started this Supper Club. It was really nice to talk with someone who was from our local area. The pork was delicious. Next, my husband had a salad and I opted for the French Onion Soup. There is a lot flavor packed into that cup. I chose for my main a special ribeye smothered in mushrooms with a Bordelaise sauce and a side of fresh vegetables. Then for dessert, I choose a crème brûlée. That dessert exceeded my expectations. Our server was delightful and found out we were from the Chicago area she let Roumel know. He visited us several times during the service. Overall, I can't say enough good about Twin Springs. You really need to go there when you're next in Decorah.

I usually do not write reviews and really ... I usually don't but oh my gosh!…read more My husband and I were on a motorcycle trip and we are suckers for Supper Clubs. When we found this place, we decided to try it out. We didn't know that there was a bit of a gravel path to reach the restaurant but I promise ... it's worth it. We sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by the bartender (I'm sorry but I stupidly forgot her name!) and she was so funny and we bonded immediately being both boy moms. She was beyond knowledgeable of the food and drink menu which is always a huge plus! When we got our food, it was PERFECT. My husband and I are both foodies and I have had countless steaks in my life, but this hands down was THE BEST filet I have ever had. The owner Roumel, who is also the head chef, table touched which is unheard of now a days and we started talking about me being from Cleveland and him being from Chicago and next thing I know we're comparing our 2016 World Series notes. His were obviously better, but it was such a wholesome conversation! His wife Jilaine told us all about the story behind the restaurant and what encouraged them to buy it and the passion behind both of their words were so genuine that you could tell they took pride in their staff, restaurant and food. As a Cleveland baseball fan who got their heart broke by the Cubs, this meal helped a bit to forgive ... maybe not forget but definitely in the right step to forgive!

We are SO incredibly sad to hear this fine establishment will be closing its doors this coming…read moreMarch. While not always on the menu, ask for a raspberry lemon drop and you won't regret it. The BEST one I've ever had. I will be begging the bartenders to teach me their ways before they close their doors. This is our top choice in town to celebrate accomplishments and achievements. The tavern and patio offer a more casual ambiance, while the restaurant itself is chic and has an element of more formality. The staff is always ALWAYS incredible and thoughtful. The food is always on point, interesting, and flavorful. This place will be well-missed come March, but I know I will be back here plenty in the mean time to get my fill and and support this staff before then.

The Waterfront is truly a very special restaurant. We were in the area and were so in love with how…read morebeautiful it was along the Mississippi River walking path that we dropped by here for an early dinner. We were so fortunate that they were able to seat us on the outdoor patio facing the water. This restaurant isn't just great for the views--the food and drinks here were phenomenal as well. Our appetizers of beer-battered cheese curds and mussels were so flavorful and hit the spot. We also loved our fish tacos and linguini with scallops (I absolutely loved the crushed red pepper that came with it too!). Our food all paired nicely with their extensive cocktail/drinks menu, which included many different breweries and distilleries. This is one of those restaurants you'll remember visiting forever--definitely come visit if you can!
