Fun local place, worth a visit. Had a tasty ruben, the pie and ice cream looked enticing. Good friendly local crowd and only a short trip from I 80. Worthy escape from typical interstate adjacent chains for something more unique!

What a great surprise! We were looking for something new for a date night and any time we see a joint with prime rib, we are anxious to try it. Now we’ve been chasing the high of a prime rib we had somewhere in Wisconsin around 1t years ago and no one has come close… Until NOW.
15 years and barely 15 miles from home, there it was, just waiting for us. Boom, 10/10 we finally found it.
We were so NOT distracted by the cozy, small diner atmosphere and actually connecting at our table that I never even remembered to pick up my phone and take a picture of the meal, sorry (not sorry)!
Service was great, price was great, apps and meals were out quick but not so quick we were shuffling plates. Just perfect.
We will be back to try the myriad of other menu options that looked equally amazing. So glad we found you all!

Real food. We both had the meatloaf special. Delicious. Great ice cream – hubby got a caramel shake. Awesome homemade pies- got a slice of pecan and superb cherry pie to go. Great taste and crust! Worth the short drive north of I80. Charming small town.

Absolute GEM! We stopped a few weeks ago on our way to Amana from Des Moines. We had delicious food which consisted of their homemade Italian sandwich, tenderloin, and their special of the day-RIBS! We agreed the ribs and tenderloin were some of the absolute best we’ve ever had at a restaurant. We really enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and we really enjoyed talking to the owner and waitress. They were so kind. We can’t wait to make it back to try more!

This place is the real deal! A classic small-town lunch counter/soda fountain! Their paninis are fantastic! We didn’t have time (or room in our stomachs) for dessert, but the ice cream and homemade pies sure looked delicious! Hope I get a chance to return to Brooklyn so I can visit again!

My husband was wanting a hot beef sandwich for lunch so we drove 44 miles to The Classic Deli. It might seem like a long way to go, but they never disappoint!! The food is delicious and the portions are generous!! All made fresh and delicious. It’s hard to save room for the pie, but you MUST try it!! Totally made from scratch and so delicious!! We try diners and pie all over the state and this place is the best around. Well worth the drive
