Best restaurants near me in Red Oak, IA

We had a great Christmas Eve. Food was perfect as was our service. Waiter Cory was outstanding. Took good care of us. Spent just the right amount of time at our table. Give him a raise, he deserves it.

Everything was amazing and made our sons birthday very special!!

Our first experience at Clio will not be our last. Their were four of us for dinner, and having never been there before, we sampled appetizers, small plates and two entrees to split. While we did have drinks and desserts, the bill was over $300. That having been said, the quality of the food was exceptional! Everything we ate was wonderful! Additionally, our waitress, was very nice and not overwhelmed like happens at so many places these days. She did a wonderful job and received a nice tip. Our only real complaint would be the noise level. The main room is not large, but all stone. With the music playing loudly and other diners nearby, we had to speak with raised voices to be heard at our table. Other than that, WONDERFUL!! Highly recommend this place, but you will need reservations.

The four course date menu or the chef’s 7 course tasting menu are our favorites! Tonight the Korean chicken starter had great flavor with the right amount of heat! The butternut squash soup with homemade roasted marshmallow was our next selections. Terrific! I chose the scallops for my main course while my spouse had the linguini with clams. The pumpkin crème brule dessert and coconut sorbet were a nice ending to our meal! Our friends had a beautifully plated and delicious beet salads and rack of lamb with mango sorbet. We had a relaxing 2 hour dinner with great service and time with Chef Anthony! Our favorite chef-owned restaurant in Omaha!

My mother and I go every year to celebrate my birthday. They have excellent food, if a little pricey. Perfect for a treat / special occasion type of place. Outside of my budget to eat there regularly, though unfortunately. We usually have whatever quiche of the day they have available. It has never steered us wrong. They also have REALLY good raspberry cheesecake, so leave room for dessert! Our latest server, Mallory, was wonderful- very personable, attentive despite being super busy, and just made my birthday lunch that much more special. We made sure to tip extra well so she knew we appreciated her, as she was a VERY busy bee buzzing from table to table spreading sunshine and a smile as she went. We'll be back again next year to continue the tradition!
