So much good food!! No way to leave hungry!! The dinner comes with soup, salad, pan bread and all that before your huge meal comes. The appetizers are all so good! Love the fried green beans. By the time I get through the appetizers, soup and salad I am so stuffed. And then comes the entree. Everything is so amazing. Never had anything bad. Come hungry!!!

I loved the inside decor it was alot to look at and enjoy. The food was excellent I will definitely eat here again. I recommend this to anyone that wants a home cooked meal.

I’ve eaten at Bonaparte’s Retreat 3 times, and stop in whenever I can. I love the ambiance of the place, and if you’re lucky enough to get the window by the big water wheel and a view of the river, it’s even better. Prices are very reasonable and the food is consistently good. Don’t expect a multi-page menu… you can fit there list of offerings on a post card. My only criticism is that they have limited hours. If you’re the kind that prefers a late lunch, you’re going to have to go elsewhere because the Retreat closes at 1pm and doesn’t open again until 5pm for dinner service.

Not another place like it. Always packed on Sunday but no wait for seat. Delicious comfort food and wait staff friendly and helpful. Great prices ample portions. Order pie with your meal as favorites run out!

Excellent place to eat. The staff was wonderful and the food was great. The building is awesome just to be in and right along the Des Moines River.

Excellent food, excellent atmosphere, fun times. Each dinner comes with soup, salad, fried bread, and croutons. We had 10 at our table on a Thursday night, we were about the only ones there.

Great atmosphere, extremely friendly staff and tasty food. No vegetarian options other than the fried stuff and the salad. Would have appreciated something like a pasta dish where the meat could be left out, but I filled up on fried yummies and a salad.

Drove from Des Moines to Bonaparte just to do dinner here as I have many times prior . I can definitely tell & taste the difference in the quality of the meat in my Ribeye. It was Tough, Full of fat and gristle and just mediocre. I won’t waste my time again !
