Peppers

Quickly seated. Table felt sticky so had it wiped down. It was actually the finish had worn off making it feel that way. Beer was good-had the Mango Cart. Had the Hall of Fame burger. Nothing special, kinda bland. Server was really nice...but....overly apologetic for the extremely slow time the food took to come out. I did notice she spent a lot of time at a table with people she obviously knew and another server finally brought out our dinners. Fries and burger were warm so had been sitting a while. If you suggest something that is not on the menu(upsale) you should at least tell people especially if you charge extra for a condiment. Overall, it's ok. I would not make a special trip to go back but if someone requested to meet me there I would.

Really used to love this place. Has just really gone down hill in terms of food quality. Staff is always nice and accommodating but food always tastes like it has been sitting under a warmer. Never fresh! Nacho chips tasted stale, chicken strips were tough. They always used to be the best anywhere! Ordered the Red Velvet cake and they brought out a silly little red velvet cupcake looking thing…horrible! And twice the price it should have been. There was twice as much frosting and some vanilla bean topping then there was cake. Don’t advertise red velvet cake and then bring this sad thing out. Really used to love this place. I’m done!

My server was brand new, however she did amazing! She got my order correct. And she was very friendly and smiled, which is rare these days. My food was done quickly and was good. I had cheese curds with their homemade ranch. It was good. I also had strips and shrimp, which came with fries. Shrimp was very good and the strips were decent sized. That came with their homemade honey mustard which was amazing. The root beer float was an awesome way to end my meal. It was HUGE for $3.50! Definitely recommend this place.

We are from out of town, but whenever we're in Cedar Falls we try to stop at Peppers on 18th Street. On this past Thursday, we were there just before the noon hour and believe me we got there just in time to beat the noon rush. This is a very popular place with locals, so trust me you will want to plan your dining around the lunch hour and dinner hour if crowds tend to bother you. Also, the place can get rather noisy due to the crowd size, and number of TVs playing. So again if this would bother you and if you're looking for an intimate conversation, plan accordingly. As far as the food goes, we have ate there many many times over the years, and I've never had a bad meal. On this most recent visit my wife had the bacon cheddar burger and she said it was awesome. I had the pork tenderloin (pictured) and we both and fries. Here's a tip... make sure you try an order of their onion rings. Pepper's makes the best dang onion rings in Cedar Falls.
