"First I want to say that I've been coming here since I was a little 10 year old boy. For the last 25 years we've loved and supported this place so much. Tonight I had a very bad experience with one of the managers( Tall skinny guy with short hair,blue shirt light hair as I stepped out of the way so he could pass. My son and I wear masks and do not eat in the restaurantbut we always order our food to go after our family eats. After we stepped out of the way for the manager and said you go aheadsir he gave me the worst dirty look and didn't even acknowledge me and then went 2 steps to the bar and talked with his friendsat the bar. We are just starting to come out of covid and ready to demask and had planned on coming to the brown bottle at leastevery two weeks from now on like we used to. Let me say though the owner is an amazing man who is very kind which is why I'mgiving three stars instead of one. He welcomed us to my birthday dinner like we belonged there. It is because of him that I willbe returning. Amazing owner and amazing food. Hopefully after my next visit I can change it back to five stars. I'll tell youthat never again will I step out of the way for that manager who looked at my son and I like we were freaks with completedisrespect. My child is diabetic with an auto immune disease so we have to be safe. I just wish we weren't judged in a place mygrandpa always took us to as kids."

Great service. Salmon delicious, Prime Rib awesome. My first time here. Highly recommend. I've been to my fair share of fine dining. I'm from Chicago. Two thumbs up. Ps. Snap peas, great too.

This is my favorite restaurant! The Italian food is outstanding. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but not excessively so. The appetizers are delicious, the duck dishes are wonderful, and the desserts are fantastic. They also have a location in Waterloo. View menu

Great Italian and American food served promptly and piping hot. Handled our group of 9 perfectly. Our waitress was the best! She didn't rush us to finish or push too many drinks, which made our family time together even more relaxing and enjoyable. Well done overall. If I didn't live 200 miles away, I'd be back in a flash.

Last week my friend and I enjoyed an excellent seasonal pasta. The butternut squash pasta topped with seasoned roasted pumpkin seeds was just amazing! We shared a bottle of Educated Guess wine and wow, did it go well with the pasta! We had anoutstanding server, Baylee. She was fun, friendly, helpful and was an attentive server. Lucky us!

Last week, my friend and I had a delightful experience at the restaurant. We tried the seasonal butternut squash pasta with seasoned roasted pumpkin seeds, which was absolutely fantastic! To complement our meal, we shared a bottle of Educated Guess wine, and it paired perfectly with the pasta. Our server, Baylee, was outstanding— funny, friendly, helpful, and very attentive. We felt fortunate to have her! View menu

The Brown Bottle features a contemporary atmosphere in black and gray with outside seating. We enjoyed an appetizer of sautéed mushrooms, a spring mix salad, garlic bread, sausage pasta, and lasagne which were all delicious and well-presented in our quiet corner of the restaurant. My companion and I agreed that the lasagne was a better choice as it was more flavorful. The garlic bread was perfectly done. Our server, Greg, was very accommodating and personable. We would gladly return on a future trip.

We are just beginning to feel comfortable dining out again after COVID, and we were looking forward to visiting regularly, just like we used to. I want to note that the owner is a truly wonderful person and very friendly, which is why I’m giving this review three stars instead of one. He greeted us warmly when we visited for my birthday dinner, and because of him, I plan to return. His hospitality and the amazing food are what keep me coming back. That said, I’ll never again yield the way for a manager who treated my son and me with such disregard, as if we were out of place. My child has diabetes and an autoimmune illness, so it’s crucial for us to feel safe. It saddens me to think we’d be...
