We tried the wings and shrimp. Both were awesome. Service was super nice, and fast. The cocktails were good.. the highlight though was the amazing dessert, a brownie with ice cream.The ambiance is very business crowd oriented.

This was my first time visiting Court Ave. I made a reservation because it was close to the Civic Center and I wanted to eat with my family prior to seeing Hamilton. I was really happy with the experience! We were seated immediately in an out of the way booth. There were plenty of options to choose from. I was happy with my Caesar salad and my two teens enjoyed wings and a chicken sandwich. Our server was friendly and attentive. I wouldn't change a thing and would definitely return!

Great staff and excellent food. On Tuesdays, the bar staff promote themselves as Beauty and the Beast. Emily and Brent will take care of you and make it fun. We sat at the bar to wait for our table and decided to stay seated at the bar.

We ended up at CABCO for dinner because everywhere else around was closing or closed. It ended up being for the best! The bartender was wonderful and offered up a great suggestion for a Sour. When Berry Met Sally was DELICIOUS! The selection on the menu was great and we ended up ordering the Cranberry Club with Sweet Potato Fries and the CABCO Sandwich with Crispy Red Potatoes. Everything was great. Came out hot and the potatoes were as crispy as advertised. Both sandwiches had more than their fair share of meat and the flavor was off the charts. The ranch is awesome too, and we all know how hard it is to find great ranch! We will definitely be back!

Went here with really high expectations. I'm sorry the result was not what I had hoped for. The food was good, the beer OK but the killer for me was the condiments left on each table. Per the USDA: Mayonnaise: You may buy mayonnaise off a non-refrigerated shelf, but the second you open it, you must keep it in the refrigerator. In fact, the USDA recommends opened mayo be tossed in the trash if its temperature reaches 50 degrees or higher for more than eight hours. I'm sorry to say that had an extremely upset stomach the whole evening afterwards, I can not recommend this place.

Went here because I was given a gift card. I was expecting to try the food. The staff was very friendly and efficient at cleaning tables. The restaurant was dark with an old aesthetic. Odd decor and a lot of TVs. The food was very expensive but listed on their website. It was high quality ingredients with good portions. They ask for reservations to eat.

Great home brews, very tasty entres, and the best craft root beer in Iowa!

I had the prime rib. Best prime rib I have had in years. The waitress was excellent & service was amazing

Service is always good here. Love the beer selection and food, too.

Good Jambalaya, Good chicken tenders and fries. Great service from our bartender/server. He was full of fun and great positive energy.
