The place was busy, about 70% full. \n\nLet me first say this about the resturant, the dining area is exceptionally clean and well maintained. Not very fancy but spotless clean. \n\nI ordered the loose-meat sandwich (aka Maid-Rite, authentic Marshalltown Iowa), fries and lemonade. The fries were plain but hot. The bun was soft and nice, the meat was dry dry dry and a bit over cooked. The sandwich is served plain, which is not authentic Taylor's. Iowa Cafe's is like a sloppy joe sandwich without anything added to the beef.\n\nEven the mustard and ketchup at the table couldn't help it. The beef was decent, tasted like actual beef, give 'em credit for that.\n\nService was excellent, I tipped well. Patrons and staff were friendly, 100% family atmosphere.\n\nTotal for sandwich, fries, and a drink with tip was $13\n\nWould I go back? Perhaps, but I'd never order that sandwich again. I saw others eating huge portions seated at other tables, my lunch didn't meet that description.\n\nEasy access, plenty of free parking."^^ . "3"^^ . "1"^^ . .
