Restaurants near George Darrow Round Barn

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.

Always a wonderful treat. Food cooked to perfection, drinks fantastic and service always friendly and perfect.

The food is very good, Thank you Rich!!! We shared FF so adequate side, It would be nice to be to get a small salad with the meal, included with entree. Our waitress was so fun!!

Signs on all the tables and at the front desk advertise a November special, 10 ounce steak with fries. But when I ordered it, the server said you were out. It's the third day of the month, and you're out of the monthly special? Or maybe you never had it to begin. So I ordered the steak frites which have been out of stock the last 2 weeks I have been there, and I got that. It was good, but it wasn't the November special. I guess I'll try next time.

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.
