Restaurants near Big Marsh Wildlife Area

Brunch was such a needed respite. The crafted drinks were fantastic and the food was amazing. My husband had the spanish eggs and they were out of this world. I ate the eggs benedict on a crab cake and english muffin. Needless to say, it is my new brunch favorite. It was beautifully prepared and presented . Ohmygoodness! It is unbelievable that we could have such wonderful food and drink in North Iowa. Thank you!

It was big city great! There were three in our party and we each had different starters. Caesar salad, wedge salad and French onion soup which were all fabulous with such presentation! Our main entrees were also a work of art. I had sea bass in a chanterelle sauce, my husband had duck and our son had venison. The venison was medium well and was ordered medium rare but that could have been a misunderstanding. It was delicious anyway. The chef walked around to all tables checking on our food. We had dessert of molten lava cake with ice cream and a crème brûlée. All were wonderful. We had not been here before but will definitely return.

Overall enjoyed our time. The value is there (this is Iowa, after all) and the quality was OK. Flavors felt a bit dumbed down (but, again, this is Iowa.) The TV above the bar was kinda distracting from the booth we were seated in. My expectations were met and I will be back.
