Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Emporia

We dined in the igloo for our niece’s birthday dinner and it was perfect from beginning to end. Ambiance was fabulous, the igloo was toasty in the 20 degree weather, food was delicious as always, but our server Jamie really made all the difference. He was personable, kind, eager to assist, took every step of service seriously, and most importantly he made our niece feel very special on her birthday. It is not easy to serve in those igloos- they are far from the kitchen, it is freezing temperatures they are constantly in and out of, and the zipper to open and close them is not an easy thing to operate when your hands are full of hot food or cold drinks. Not only did he refuse to allow those challenges to diminish his service levels in any way, but he also went out of his way to say that he enjoyed the experience of serving to the igloos. Major kudos to Jamie for the impeccable service and great time, as well as the kitchen for always pumping out fresh and delicious food!

It was our 32nd anniversary and they gave us a private booth which is what we requested! They had the employees sign a card and wished us a happy anniversary. Our waiter was super and the manager was also! The food was amazing! We highly recommend this restaurant!

One of my favorite restaurants!!!! The food is always delicious, the view is magnificent and the service was exceptional. We had a group of 10 and our server Krista was OUTSTANDING!

Lovely venue with delicious food and drinks!!! Will return again and again!!! 😀

food choices a little limited but what they serve is quite good- thumbs up on the chicken and waffles (go with the wings) - French toast was banging and had a nice crispy edge to it. They really should upgrade to real maple syrup, IMHO. Blackened salmon blt was also very tasty. a bit loud and chaotic as crowd grew but comfortable enough.
