The place is clean and open with a very corporate inside and a more laid back patio, which would be great if it was cooler out. The server was very friendly, got me water quickly, and brought my iced tea quickly too. She was professional and pleasant. ashe even brought me a second iced tea without me asking. Good seevice. I was here for lunch and water eat light. I got a lunch special that's half salad and half sandwich. I got the blt and the chopped salad. The plate was served with sliced avocado, which I added to the half blt. That was a very good sandwich. It's only on the menu as part of the 2/2 and 1/2 lunch special. But it's good, The salad was pretty good, not great. But it was light. The waitperson offered to get me iced tea to go, which was awesome. She was terrific. This is a good little lunch spot,

This place was located next to our hotel. We needed to eat before tailgating at a Hawkeye game…read more We had 7 of us. We saw the outdoor patio and asked to be seated. They have one big table outside next to the fire pit. You can bring your dog to the fire pit! Menu is on the small side but the choices are varied. All seven of us found something to eat. Nobody complained. Service was fast. My burger was nice and juicy - perfectly done. I saw they had pretzel buns but was too late to change mine. Oh well. Still tasted great. Fries were crispy. "table side" guac was not made tableside but it did taste freshly made. This is somewhat of a hidden gem on the outskirts of Coralville by the golf courses.

From the greeting as we walked in and the moment we sat down, Chase treated us like lifelong friends. His enthusiasm and love for Iowa were unparalleled, and he was genuinely interested in hearing about what brought us all the way from California. He was warm, engaging, funny, and made us feel completely at home. The food was delicious on its own, but somehow Chase's enthusiasm made everything taste even better! If you're nearby, stop in for a beer and a bite--and if you're lucky enough to have Chase as your server, you're in for an especially great experience. You won't be disappointed!

Perfect volume. Nice waitress…read more Food was okay. Would have been bettter with beer. We have seen this place look really crowded so the atmosphere may be very different when comparing weekdays vs weekends and when the university has all students in attendance. Almost gave this a three cause of food, but I think we would like to come try some more stuff first before we hang our hats. The indoor activities could also make the experience more enjoyable with a larger group, so that also would need to be factored again. Until we "eat" again Tavern blue!

Speaking of perfect....our beef tenderloins were perfect. Not to mention the truffle risotto. It's AMAZING!!!!! The place wasn't too busy so it made for a nice laid back Friday night. Was leery about going back after my last time here but I'm so glad we did! My only complaint is that took the beef Wellington bites off their appetizers, but I understand the need to change. Can't wait to try some of the new stuff on the menu but it'll be hard to get away from the beef tenderloin.

The guy that helped me. JAIRO.R excellent service greeted me on the phone and in person I wish I could say the same for the four waitresses that were working two or three of them were in the back snacking instead of greeting me when I walk through the door or asked if I've been helped they just stared and looked at me. I'm a well traveler across the states been to just about every Longhorn in the country, this one by far sucks, I will not eat here again due to the service. I waited 20 minutes just to be greeted by the man that took my order on the phone. Nobody else greeted me. They just looked at me that's including the bartender. Also I wanted my salmon. Well done half of it was well done. The other half was medium well do not come here to eat if those 4 to 5 waitresses are still working they give the ambience and the atmosphere of Longhorn a bad name take your money somewhere else or find out for yourself . There is hardly anybody there and I understand when it's time to go home you want to go home but I walked in at 10:18 PM on a Friday you close at 11 10 is a complete different number from 11 I would seriously fired every waitresses and hire a new and friendly and welcoming staff
