MONICA'S

Monica's serves American favorites, Italian specialties and gourmet pizzas, with a gluten-free menu section for diners who need it. Each day one of the regular dishes is offered for $2 off, and new or seasonal items are sometimes previewed before they appear on the menu. Chef Sal Hnesh leads the kitchen.

Guests can dine in, carry out or pick up curbside, and the restaurant offers reservations by phone. Gift certificates are available by calling the restaurant and can be mailed. The restaurant is on 2nd Street in Coralville, and it stays open until 10 PM on Friday and Saturday nights.
