Hawkeye - Mapleton

Pleasant and friendly. Food is great. However, the people are better...

The broasted chicken and cheese curds at this restaurant are some of the best I have ever tasted.

We waited for two hours for our food at this restaurant. The waitress took orders from parties that arrived after us first. Many tables were waiting for their food and had empty drinks. Frustration was evident at other tables. The owner was there as a customer and didn't pay attention to the issues. The hash browns in our order were burnt on one side. We mentioned this to the waitress, who told the owner, but no one seemed to care. The acoustics were also bad. Overall, it's not worth going back. Rating: Food 3/10, Service 1/10, Atmosphere 1/10.

The food was excellent, the service was exceptional, the staff was very friendly and polite, and the prices were reasonable.

The food and the staff are excellent at this restaurant. It's a fantastic spot overall, especially with their lunch specials offered during the week. My personal favorite are the burritos.
