So sad the building is changing tenants!! Go while you still can!! Sunday brunch was so good. Everything I had was divine. Biscuits & gravy, free mimosas, waffles with berries, chocolate dipped strawberries... The cheesecake tasted like it came out of a box but that's my one and only complaint. Staff were nice and attentive. (Thanks, Andy!) Buffet lines move quickly. Wondrrful!

10 stars, outstanding in every way. Perfect service, food quality, and ambience. Celiac-friendly, even gave me gluten free garlic toast. The only tricky part was the entrance isn't what you would expect, myself and 1 other couple were wandering around but it IS right in the front.

Grew up in Iowa City and this was always a staple. Went for a dinner with my kid when we were in town. I haven't eaten here in years, but it wasn't the allure it was back then. The view still fun and food is solid, just not spectacular. Our service though, was amazing. She went above and beyond because I couldn't eat dairy, and she made up a meal for my kiddo as well. She was excellent! I wish I had her name to give her compliments (we visited 5pm on Jun 29th). I ordered duck because it's one of my favorite things, but it wasn't actually good. I should have ordered a steak, when in Iowa. Next time!

We've been going to Iowa River Power Restaurant for many years. The Sunday buffet has a wide range of foods. The building has a unique vintage design inside and out. Seating with a view of the river is available.

Amazing food! Perfectly cooked steaks, potatoes that has THE best flavor! The shrimp was excellent too! Service was top notch. Normally you need a reservation which we did not know but we made in just between! Super glad we finally were able to eat here.

River view was beautiful, service was great, and food was amazing. Highly recommend their spinach artichoke dip appetizer and their potato bacon cheddar soup.

Sunday brunch is amazing. There are so many great food options. Eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, pasta, prime rib, waffles (with many toppings to chose from), a large selection of veggies, fruit, pastries cakes and other deserts. Reservations are recommended because it can get quite busy. I have gone so many times and have never been disappointed.

Had dinner here on a Saturday evening with my wife. The front staff was friendly as we showed up early to enjoy some cocktails, but they had seating available and took us to our table right away. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip that comes inside a bread bowl and that was very good. Highly recommend that. I had the prime rib dinner special and my wife had a sirloin. I thought the meats could have used more flavor but the sides were top notch and I also got a side order of the shrimp wrapped in bacon that was excellent. Not my favorite steak restaurant, but very nice and the setting and vibe are lovely. Dinner for two with 2 drinks and app ran us around 100-120 after tip. One last thing to note is it took us around 90 minutes so definitely don't go there if you are looking for a quick bite.
