What a fantastic spot in Iowa City. I come to Iowa City several times a year to visit family. I'm…read moreso glad we discovered with place as it could easily compete with quality of bigger city restaurants. There were four of us. We started with the kimchi cucumbers and gyoza. Both were great but those cucumbers were so good we got a second order. We also tried a few cocktails from the lounge menu. We asked specifically to see that menu as the food menu has a few cocktails but not as extensive as on the lounge menu. All the cocktails our table tried were great -- tastefully made and well balanced. Finally for the main course, we all tried a ramen. I got the Negi Shoyu which is chicken broth based and it was so flavor packed and delicious. Everyone was pleased and cleared their plates.

The decor is modern industrial and it's great. The space is beautiful and feels high end. The service is spot on. The server was professional? helpful and accommodating. It is literally perfect. The food is served family style, though. friend didn't want to do that. Ironically. my wife didn't like that either. So i'm use to it. Instead of splitting apps, we both had the same app: beef tartare. It was one of the best tatteres i've ever had. And I love this dish. We each ordered a pasta as our main. My friend loved his. Mine was ok, but too salty, which is never my issue. Nevertheless? the whole thing was really excellent. This is a great restaurant.

Waitstaff was quick and nice. I love the upscale atmosphere of this place compared to the typical college bars. Come here with parents. They are flexible with kids.

I've eaten a lot of burgers across Iowa, but this one at The Wilder just climbed to my Top 10 list…read morefaster than I could say "extra napkins, please." I'm ready to fight anyone who disagrees--this burger is a legend. The Wilder, you've ruined me for all other burgers, and I'm not even mad about it. I'll be back tomorrow, and I'm bringing stretchy pants and a bib. Shoutout to our waiter, Chase, who was an absolute rockstar! He brought the burger with a smile that could light up the room, checked on us just the right amount, and even laughed at my terrible food puns (sorry, Chase, I couldn't resist). He made the whole experience even better, and that's saying something because this burger was already stealing the show.

Blue Agave was a rather nice spot for a causal Mexican food experience…read more FOOD: chips, salsa, fajitas all met expectations and were prepared well. I'm never a fan of being charged for chips but they were good so that erased any "resentment" on that account. SERVICE: friendly, responsive, and accommodating AMBIANCE: casual spot that also makes for a great date night. Do note that as this is near the university, there are a lot of students there. That's not a negative or positive, just a note.

Plus, Each time we have been there, the service has been fast and friendly. I really don't know what else to say. This place is just a solid, slightly more upscale bar than the rest of the bars in Iowa city. If you're looking for a nice place to have a quiet drink, this is it. I would highly recommend the Manhattan or the Waco kid! Ps the chicken Parmesan is one of the best sandwiches I have had in my entire time in Iowa city

I came here for a Yelp event, so I can't speak to the service/food on an average Tuesday, but I was…read moredefinitely impressed with everything I tried during my visit. This, in addition to the gorgeous 70s vibes from the restaurant. Seriously, every little piece of it has a story behind it, from the tiny pigs hanging in the beads separating two parts of the restaurant to the Gene Wilder-print paper accompanying the fries. I love it. I love the way it shows the thought and care that went into every single detail. Food: Open your menu. Find the meal with the maple-glazed carrots. Order them. Thank me. Again, no idea about where exactly they're located on the menu because I tried them at a Yelp event, but they are exquisite. The best-tasting carrots I've ever eaten. Like, I found myself wanting a plate of veggies. That should speak volumes. They also get their desserts daily from Bread Garden, and if you've ever stopped by (it's literally next door, so I would hope so), they're more like the Bread Eden. So in other words, you can expect a lot from their desserts. I had pie served on an artfully decorated plate with fresh cream on top, and I was two seconds away from licking my plate it was so good. Drinks: Their cocktails are AMAZING. I can already picture spring and summer, stopping by for a quick bite and a cocktail on their patio. This place is in an ideal location, and with excellent beverages and yummy apps, what's not to love? Decor: Did I mention it's awesome? Yeah. It's awesome. This isn't a huge restaurant, but it's worth noting that the space is divided, so it could easily accommodate a larger group with a more private dining vibe on the far side of the room. I can't wait to come back!
