Mill Creek Café
This small-town café’s motto is "From Scratch. Always." And they mean it – the ladies of Mill Creek make three lunch specials each day and offer a take-and-bake menu for dinners you can cook later.
Ox Yoke Inn
Stop in to the Ox Yoke Inn in Amana and enjoy the best German and American food served "family style" since 1940. Daily breakfast, lunch, dinner, banquets, children's menu, and a Sunday Brunch buffet. Don’t miss the homemade desserts.
Big Grove Brewery
The restaurant features 14 changing taps that include their own beers – brewed on-site in Solon – as well as guest brews. Food is created using as many local ingredients as possible. The tater tot casserole, made with housemade mushroom soup, is a favorite side item.
Cobble Hill Eatery & Dispensary
The James Beard Foundation named chef and co-owner Andy Schumacher a semifinalist for the Best Chef in the Midwest in 2015. The menu, which changes seasonally due to availability of local produce in Cedar Rapids, includes ingredients like smoked popcorn grits and barrel-aged hot sauce jus.
Salvatore's Ristorante
A local staple for more than 30 years, the restaurant’s Italian wine list is one of the most extensive in the area. The delectable Italian food is created from recipes handed down through multiple generations of the Vitale family.
Kalona Brewing Company
The Amish community of Kalona is the last place you might expect to find one of Iowa's best craft breweries and restaurants. But the Kalona Brewery has earned a reputation for its fine food and beers brewed on site.
