The House Of Lords is part of the Cantubury Inn, and was voted the best restaurant in Iowa City (by someone). My husband and I went there for our wedding. It was awesome! He had beef wellington, and I had some thing with Lobster, Chicken, and rice. It was the best restaurant I've ever eaten at (but what do I know).

Great atmosphere, wonderful music, whimsical bathroom, huge portions, delicious New Orlean's style B-B-Q! The ultimate Barbeque experience in the Cedar Valley!

The Brown Bottle has been around for almost 30 years, and has kept it's reputation as Cedar Valley's premier Italian Restaurant. This is a good place to take your sweetheart for a romantic dinner.

Best pizza in town, Casey's Pub is a fun place to socialize and have a drink. They also have great Grinder sandwiches, at an affordable price.

This place is pretty shabby, and if you can get past the loud spine tweaking music, you can get yourself a pretty decent pizza. I especially like the beer flavor in the dough, and the option of shrimp as a topping. My dad use to deliver pizzas for them in the 60s, but honestly the quality of the food has gone down in recent years.

I admit I'm still a little bitter since the dude from Tony's bought Steb's to convert it to a "binki beach bar", however I will also admit that the food is pretty darn good. I skip the pizza, but the sandwiches and pasta are nice to the tongue. This is also a booty bar, so if you like techno dj music, and scantly clad college chicks, you'll feel right at home.

I think it is admirable that the pasta here is made from scratch, but it lacks the spice that I'm looking for in Italian food. The atmosphere is nice though, a bit shabby, and if you are opposed to being annoyed; STAY AWAY FROM WEDNESDAY NIGHT KAREOKE!!!

Waffle Stop is the ultimate greasy spoon, hometown diner! It is a fun and popular place with a grill (no fryer), so instead of french fries you get hash browns (with your choice of mixins'). The staff is friendly, and you sit at a counter and watch your food being prepared right in front of you. It's always crowded, and it's always delicious!

Homestyle cookin' just like grandma use to. Garfield's has yummy American foods like open face turkey and mash potato sandwiches, and great tenderloins.

SteamBoat gardens is a fun diner with awesome tenderloins. It is very popular here, and for good reason! The food is just good downhome American style! The best are the tug boats (which are little tenderloin sandwiches, perfect for kids).

Best subs anywhere! True New Jersey style subs with tons of different choices (capicola, prochuitto, salami, even Coleslaw which is great on a sub). Fresh baked breads, and fresh veggies. I love Sub City!

z's is just off of airline high way (and coincidently a block away from my home) so if you happen to be at the air port, and have an hour to kill, come on down. Chicken, Seafood, tenderloins... typical Iowa fare.

Generally this is Americanized Mexican food, but nonetheless pretty tastey. My favorite dish is Chicken Picada (buttery garlic sauteed chicken, with monteray jack cheese, tomatos and green onions wraped in flour tortillas). Fortunately I have learned how to copy this recipe at home through much trial and error so I haven't been to Carlos O'Kelly's lately.

My husband took me here on a whim one day. I don't like mushrooms, and forgot to ask them to omit them for me. Nonetheless, it was probably the best Chinese I've eaten around here. I love the puffed cracker things that you get with the egg drop soup. It's hard to communicate with the staff however (which is a good sign 'cause they're really Chinese), but I saw some Mexican's cooking in the kitchen. Hmmmm.

Great buffet! My husband was hooked on this place for awhile. I would love to go on Sunday when they have CRAB! (mmmmmm....crab legs)

The Ole Broom Factory is actually an old broom factory which was converted into a restaurant. It has a beautiful atmosphere, and really good food. It's the kind of place that people go to when there is something very important to celebrate. (I wish my husband would take me there... :0(

Donuts and good coffee too! This is a cops dream, open 24-7, and right on the edge of town smack dab in the middle of the crusin' strip. If you are a criminal stay away!

The sandwiches at Da Vinci's are delicious. I love the wheat bread, and the fresh veggies.

I remember this place from when I was a wild teenager. I stayed up all night with my friend who lived in Traer. It was 6 AM and we were hungry. We only had about 3 dollars (but still managed to eat). It was the kind of place that you can go to hear farmers talk about crops (or something). I will never forget it.
