La Rana 120 Washington Street, Decorah, IA 52101

"Sometimes, a friend will take you to a birthday dinner at La Rana and because he snuck away and paid for all the drinks at his own birthday dinner a while back, you want to get him back and pay for the drinks at your own. Well, these waiters and waitresses will help you with that. Even if your friend pulls a lot of weight in the community. And also, the food and service is spectacular."

"We had a mini reunion of Luther alums who spent a year abroad in Nottingham, England. We had limited time so lunch was our best option. Gail, from Agora Arts, had recently written a recommendation and three of our group already had previously enjoyed visiting La Rana. All seven of us enjoyed a fantastic meal. The service was enthusiastic, welcoming and helpful. The food was delicious and served exactly as described. Next time, I hope, we’ll be able to enjoy dinner and have either a nearby hotel reservation or designated driver (since we were in six different cars with relatively long rides home). Super recommend this place."

"We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door. Sat at the bar and received great service. I got the crab cake sandwich with tomato basil soup. My husband had the reuben with fries. Both were delicious, homemade, and had great flavor. The atmosphere was energetic, and the place was busy the entire time we were there. Highly recommend!"

"Enjoyed eating here! We stumbled across this place while visiting the town. Very nice staff and the food was awesome - very fresh! Highly recommend. I got the tuna salad and the other person in my party got the tacos (which were shrimp) with a side of tomato basil - which was AMAZING! Our drinks were coffee and fresh squeezed lemonade."

"Arrived 20 til noon got one of two last tables. Ordered the special greek meatball on pita; partner ordered havana sandwich. We both had the tomato soup instead of fries or salad. DELICIOUS. The tomato soup was delicious. Served with crusty bread sliced cutely. Excellent place for a bistro bite! Sorry for the bad pics, i was half way through before I thought about reviewing. We had eaten at the mexican place the night before and it was not so good."
