This restaurant is located in The Hotel at Kirkwood Center, and is a Culinary Arts Program. Elegant decor. Great service and food at a slightly higher price point than a chain, but the students are learning (and we get to eat the rewards of their education). The sticky pork belly was perfectly balanced between sweet, sour, and savory. The special of the day (ribeye) was perfectly cooked, the pork chop, duck, and steak fries were excellent. Will come back when back in town!

Attended a wedding reception here. Enjoyed some time at the bar waiting for cocktail hour to start. Drinks were delish, and had great alcohol content.

From the time we walked into the lobby area, we were greeted by the Hotel Staff. The lobby area, gave all of us a sense of coziness. The bar area caught our eye, because it had great lighting and comfortable chairs. Very relaxing and then on to their beautiful dining room. The menu had a nice variety of food to choose from. The service was excellent and the food was delicious!

First visit to The Class Act. Delicious food, friendly service. Nice atmosphere. The restaurant is located in The Hotel at Kirkwood Center. So, a great location for any special event, meeting, or gathering. In addition to being a nice local restaurant, it’s part of Kirkwood college. For anyone not already familiar with Kirkwood, here are some interesting facts… The 680-acre campus in Cedar Rapids includes a 400-acre working farm, 27 buildings with 1.4 million square feet of interior learning space, and a 15-acre athletic complex. Kirkwood students come from 100 different countries, all over the United States and all 99 Iowa counties. With 14 locations across 7 counties, Kirkwood is the area’s leading provider of accessible, affordable, and exceptional education and training.

Ate here with family 4 years ago. Gave it 2 stars then. Ate here again at a family event. Worst filet mignon I’ve ever had. My wife had the same and it, too, was poor. No flavor and a pretty strange texture. My son’s sandwich was ok. My sister-in-law’s fish was horribly overcooked making it dry and only partially edible. Another at the table didn’t receive a portion of her order. The restaurant asked 1 wait person to handle 22 people. He did a great job. The kitchen failed to deliver.

The positive reviews definitely tell the truth about this upscale restaurant! We enjoyed a nice dinner here on the first Saturday of December and were impressed. Not only was the food delicious, the waiter did a wonderful job. We heard later that it was only his second day! Whatever your restaurant is doing to provide a first class experience….keep it up : )

We were at Cedar Rapids Airport and did a Google place to eat near me. Their name came up, one among many. We went, and it was great. The other surprise It was in the Kirkwood hotel. Truly a class act, but not classy prices.,

We had an outstanding experience at this restaurant and hotel. We hosted an elegant 90th birthday celebration for my mother here recently for 24 guests. It was incredible! Everything was perfect, from the beautiful conference room, the lounge area where we took family photos and enjoyed delicious appetizers, to the outstanding cake, apple tartlets, and vegan cupcakes, to the amazing gourmet dinner. I can’t speak highly enough of the excellent service we received. Jodie Power, wait staff Kale and Colton, and hotel and bar staff, made the entire planning process and the event elegant and seamless. They even assisted with the coordination of the gorgeous flowers for the event designed by Beth from the Oakland Hyvee. My mother was ecstatic and truly fell in love with this beautiful place and the kind and wonderful staff. I received so many compliments from my guests on the event, but the kudos really belong to the staff, the restaurant chef, and Cat Grimsley, the pastry chef for the gorgeous and delicious birthday cake and desserts. Bravo! A Class Act performance from a great restaurant and staff!!
