Restaurants near Whitebreast Park

Excellent food, special brunch service, the bunt cake was fabulous, and our meal was quite good. The noise level was expected due to the design of the dining room. but the nostalgic of the older building made it quite nice. They filter the water, so the coffee and water tasted good. The waitress was attentive and took good care of us. Priced a little on the high side but this was a special meal. We enjoyed our special outing.

Food was excellent as always. There was a slight delay in initial service due to our server working with a large table elsewhere in the restaurant when we were seated. Not a big deal but partway through our meal he let me know that they would comp the lovely bottle of Brunelo I had selected. I told them that this was completely unnecessary but he insisted. This attention to detail and commitment to service really sets 801 Chop House apart from most other restaurants. Of course the food was delicious and the steaks were perfect but I really appreciate the restaurant's care for its patrons. A cherry on top happened as we were walking out and another staff we had not met - front of house director perhaps - thanked us again and apologized for the service delay. Seriously! There are few finer restaurants in the state of Iowa and no finer steak houses.

The service for ordering food and drinks was perfect. Our server was pleasant and accommodated dietary needs with a smile. All plates were delivered with excellent presentation and the right temperature. Getting until and paying took a bit longer than I expected but wasn’t excessive.

Excellent food and service by Seth and Chuck! I always get the prime rib and it is the best! Very tender cut of beef you could cut with a plastic knife… please don’t change the meat sourcing as this is the best and well worth the $$$. AJs always has great specials too and is a good value as well. I dined on Christmas Day and despite being very busy, the staff did a great job and were efficient in service! Thanks again Seth as always!

Honestly the wait staff was great and kind, they just didn’t have many food options left and they kept bringing wrong drinks to the table. With as busy as it was and how large our party was I felt they did do a fantastic job and that aside, everything else was exceptional.
