We were looking for a place to watch the Hawkeye football game while having dinner with friends. The salmon salad with honey dijon dressing was surprisingly good for a bar. They were accommodating to make my wife's Czech reuben gluten free (no bread). The Sutliff hard cider is a local brew and was good. Dinner and drinks for 2 for $27 was an amazing value.

Fine menu selection. Stopped in for lunch, other restaurants all overbooked, only a few here. After quick order, took a while to get waiter off the phone to pay. Egg burger was to die for, staff very pleasant, but lured into boredom from lack of customers that day.

We met our daughter and her boyfriend (who is working on the Hwy. 30 by pass) on Friday night for dinner at Whitey's. They were very busy but, our waitress found us a table right away. Our drink orders taken we began to choose what our Friday night meal would be. They have a large menu with something for everyone. Daughters boy friend and I had the broasted pork chops(2) with 2 sides, daughter and wife had the ham and cheese sandwich with fries. In no time our food arrived and everyone was VERY pleased. Large portions, fair prices, GREAT waitresses that are VERY attentive, nice small town atmosphere, daily specials and ez to find location with lots of parking. This is one of the road crews favorite places to stop at the end of a hard day, have a drink and a good meal.When the road is done we plan to return and see the new road and have another meal at Whiteys.

Historic bridge and restaurant on the Cedar River. Stop in and try one of our hand-breaded jumbo tenderloins, or a Baxa burger! Wash it down with the coldest beer in town!

Another family owned gem. Been around a long time, off the beaten path, locals love this place, reasonable prices and the food is quite good. Burgers always taste like expensive fresh hamburger!

We were a big group that went on a Saturday night before the Cornell College graduation. We expected crowded and we got it. An hour wait for our table for eight! But it was worth every minute (ended up being closer to 45 minutes than 60) with excellent food and beer. It's a great atmosphere, brick walls, excellent bar area, just a fun ambience overall. Terrific service from the bar where we hung until our number was called, and that continued to our table. The wait staff was well-informed on both beer and food menus. We had a wide selection from the pizzas to parm fries, deviled eggs, burgers, no complaints from anyone...only compliments on the quality of the food.Did I mention the beer was excellent? Burch Brown was terrific and al the beers (wide selection!!!) were deemed super.Can't go wrong taking the trek to Solon for some great food, beer and relaxation! jwhallgren thank you for the great review! You caught us on what has become the busiest Saturday of the year, Cornell and Iowa graduation weekend. I very much appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We are so happy to hear, that even at our busiest, the staff continues to hit our standards. We hope to see you again, soon!
