Worst food ever. I’ve never been to this Burger place. You order in the grocery store, then go in the huge restaurant. There were 2 other tables full at 1 pm. I got a “sloppy joe” which was a pile of canned onion strips over some sort of orange sauce and a white suace. I dug in the find a spoonful of meet stuck to some kind of bread. When I handed it back to the waitress she said the goo was cheese. She was not a happy camper.

Been here 2 times. They food is good and the bloody mary is ok. Service is excellent. They are very accommodating for large groups. Like the chicken and veggies, but i think they should list the veggies as i can’t stand mushrooms and would have asked for them to be taken off. Also ordered the loaded fries and they were yummy.

Good selection of pub food. If that’s not good enough, the entire deli and sushi area is fair game. Friendly bar tender and a good selection of local brews. Haven’t tried yet but $3 happy hour pints are a good deal. Great seating and lots of displays showing sports, news, etc.

My husband and I went to have Mother’s Day brunch at the Oakdale Hy Vee restaurant this morning This was definitely the worst buffet brunch I have ever had. First- it was $50 for the 2 of us. We were given a nasty orange drink instead of real orange juice – and she only filled the small glasses a little over half full. The buffet was extremely lacking: biscuits and watered down sausage gravy, soupy cheesy potatoes with onion and bacon bits, greasy soggy bacon, sausage links, extremely dry AND cold FAKE scrambled eggs with hard melted cheese on top, a small bowl of assorted fruit, croissants, small apple pastries, donut holes, ham and over cooked prime rib. No muffins, toast, bagels, English muffins, pancakes or french toast. I’ve had better FREE continental breakfasts (with more variety) at hotels I’ve stayed at. Then, we get to the booth that has a sign on the table saying that it’s been sanitized for our safety. There was food on the napkin holder, on the wall, on the seat, and smeared all over the back of the booth. (I have pics). We asked three different staff members for silverware – and were told by each that they would get us some, but no one ever brought us any silverware. We ended up grabbing some plastic utensils. Please note: these people were NOT busy. There were only 2 other tables with customers in the restaurant. We left without finishing even one plate of food. My husband went back to grab some more of the spiral ham (it was really the only thing that wasn’t half bad). He stood there waiting for over 5 minutes, but the employee who was supposed to be there carving the meat did not return – so we just left. All in all: I would definitely NOT recommend Oakdale Hy Vee Mother’s Day Brunch. Ridiculously high price for the lack of variety and poor quality of food – not to mention, the utterly horrible service. If we thought they would have given us our money back, we would have asked. Needless to say – we won’t be returning. Just incredibly disappointed.

Fair at best. Sun par food which had clearly been sitting around for some time, bland flavor, excessive breading. Find another option.

Very nice place to go. Prices are in line with most sit down breakfast places. Staff is super nice! I had the pancakes that were on special and wasnt overly impressed with the syrup that was supposed to be cinnamon infused. But other then that it was a great experience

This is the first time I have been to this grocery store. I didn’t know that they had a restaurant inside it. We gave it a try and the food was awesome. On Tuesday, they have $8 burgers and unlimited fries or tots which is an awesome deal. They also have a happy hour from 4-6 with 1/2 drinks and appetizers. The wonton nachos were great. I would highly recommend giving this place a shot as the prices are very low for the high quality of food you get.
