Where Can I Find The Best All-You-Can-Eat Feasts In Iowa?
From buffets to endless meats and sushi brought to your table, these are the four best locations where you can eat your fill.
- Brazil Terra Grill brings the unique style of eating known as Rodizio to Iowa for the first time, and if you haven't experienced this, you're in for a treat. First, eat your fill at a small hot-and-cold buffet of Brazilian specialties, but don't fill up - because the main attraction is a parade of skewered meats carved tableside. Waiters will bring them by, allowing you to sample chicken, pork, sausage, lamb, and a dazzling variety of grilled beef. For dessert, churros are among the highlights.
- Hibachi Grill & Supreme Buffet is the largest Chinese buffet in Iowa, featuring over 250 items to choose from. The highlights include a massive sushi selection, peel-and-eat shrimp, Chinese classics like chicken skewers and wonton soup, and my favorite - the build-your-own hibachi bowl. You fill up a bowl with noodles, vegetables, and meats and watch as it's cooked in front of you by the expert hibachi chef. Make sure to save room for cake or ice cream for dessert.
- Breitbach's Country Dining has a unique distinction - it's the oldest restaurant in Iowa and has a fascinating history dating back over a hundred years to 1852 in the tiny town of Balltown. A lot has changed since then - but the great food here has stood the test of time. A traditional buffet, it serves up good ol' country cooking including some of Iowa's best fried chicken and fried fish. If you're lucky, you'll be around when they're serving up German specialties or the famous fried pork tenderloin.
- Izumi Sushi and Hibachi brings a new style of all-you-can-eat dining to Iowa for the first time - the all-you-can-order model, where you order anything you want off the menu and it comes to you straight from the kitchen. The highlight here is the extensive sushi menu, but this Cedar Rapids restaurant also features teriyaki, curry, perfectly fried tempura, and udon and soba noodle soups. It's a great way to sample all Japanese cuisine has to offer.
