Restaurants in Iowa City

Restaurants here help you with the everyday and the special: a quick weeknight dinner, a happy hour after work, or a table for a celebration. Many offer services such as gift cards, private events, weddings and wine by the glass, while some specialize in dishes like teppanyaki, beef noodles or hot pot. Before you go, call ahead and ask whether the menu covers what you want, especially for shared tables like hot pot, and whether they take reservations or accept walk-ins. For larger groups or private events, ask about minimums and deposits early, and book well ahead for weekend evenings and holidays.
