Hy-Vee Market Grille

Had breakfast here for a few times. Food was fine, but they often forgot (twice!) to bring an item of my order, like fruits. Their attitude sometimes was distant. When I asked for a box and thanked the staff, he looked at me indifferently, without saying a word. Anyways, I probably will go more frequntly to McDonald's for breakfast, althouth its options are limited.

Diner type restaurant attached to a grocery store. You order at a counter and seat yourself in the dining area. At least for breakfast, it’s a very good value. The whole meal pictured (both plates) was only $10 — definitely very filling. My main gripe is that the “fresh fruit” is like 80% melon and doesn’t taste all that fresh. Still a good establishment, probably the closest thing to IHOP / Waffle House in the Ames area.

Great spinach and artichoke dip, love the pita chips!! Had the steak and it was juicy. Great dinner place. Great job Market Grille Express!

I regret eating here every time I do. Tried Market Grille a handful of times and I wont be going back. My orders are consistently made incorrectly, the food quality is mediocre at best. This place is presented like a restaurant but you would be pressed to find a better experience here, than you would expect at a hospital cafeteria. I was even served moldy fruit, and found more than one hair in my food. Talk about a plethora of health code violations right in the grocery store.

The food tastes good, but the service leaves much to be desired. Also, the sushi rolls they serve are so big, you can't eat one in one bite, which ruins the experience.
