tenderloin sandwich
Lauren W.

As soon as you walk in, this place is loud. With both energy and decor. Tons of lights up on the ceiling and little pig decorations everywhere. We happened to come on music trivia night, which was a nice surprise to join in on! The service was great. Claire was an excellent server who was very attentive and made sure our orders came out perfectly. The pork tenderloin sandwich was amazing!! It was crispy and juicy, definitely not dry at all even without any sauce on it! Fun atmosphere with good food.

Great service! In addition to our server, a man came around offering samples of beers and canned cocktails. I don't do well with high top tables and that is all we saw when we walked in. Keep walking! There are low tables behind the wall. The food was delish. He had the tenderloin sandwich and I had the soup and salad combo. Homemade tortellini and sausage soup with a fresh salad with dill ranch dressing. Lovely combo for $10. He thought the tenderloin needed more seasoning. The atmosphere was vibrant and loud. Just what we needed after a day with just the two of us on a long car ride. Definitely would recommend.

Sharing a tenderloin

The pork tenderloin sandwich was delicious!! Glad we shared because it's huge. Even with the split plate change (didn't realize onion rings were an up charge) it was reasonably priced.

This place is the schizzle. Was on the pork tenderloin page on fb and mentioned I was driving through Iowa. 5-6 people told me to stop here. Glad I did. I got the hype! And it's only 2 minutes off the highway too!!

Half eaten tenderloin and onion rings.

She had the Reuben and fries, I had the tenderloin and Onion Rings. We both should've gotten a box for left overs instead of eating it all. The tenderloin was great, not too thin and not dried out. The Reuben could've used more thousand island, but was very good. The fries were great. And the onion rings were too but a little too dark from the frier. Second time e there, will come back and probably have the same things again. Forgot to take a picture before we started eating.

We got some Sunday dinner and there was a band playing. As soon as I walk in, I get stopped and get told there's a $5 cover charge. No biggie I explain I called ahead and she directed me to the bar to get my food. (When I ordered over the phone they didn't tell me my total, there's a 4% additional fee for credit cards) The bartender takes my name and goes to grab my food, she comes back with food and total. Of course I didn't have perfect change ready and gave her extra. She took my money to the register and just left me stranded and out to dry. I finally found another employee to right their wrongs, he grabbed her and she went back to the register. She comes back and shoves my change across the bar. She seemed like I was the one being the problem. If this was my "friendly neighbor bar" I'd be calling my realtor.

I chose the catfish po' boy with jalapeño corn. The corn was amazing, but the sandwich itself was just okay. My lady ordered the Nashville Chix with coleslaw. The chicken had the perfect blend of spicy and delicious. The coleslaw was really good, though I'm not a coleslaw fan, so take that for what it's worth. The atmosphere includes lots of TVs playing sports, a large bar, and at least two pool tables. There's also a big outdoor seating area with cornhole. It felt a touch run down when we visited, but we arrived just after winter, so it's probably very nice the rest of the year. The staff was attentive and friendly. It's also conveniently located near hotels, shops, and plenty of other things to do. I would definitely return to Scores.
