Restaurants near Iowa Hall of Pride

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.

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.

Samantha was an amazing server! Our food was delicious, but she just made our night with her smile & sweetness!

Great food and service as usual! Danny served us well.
