Cobble Hill is probably the finest restaurant in Cedar Rapids. It has a distinct New York atmosphere, and the food is outstanding. Be prepared to pay for it - drinks, dinner and tip will probably be around $100 for two, but worth it if you are looking for a really classy night out.

White Star is a very nice, moderately-priced restaurant in downtown Cedar Rapids. There is often live music on weekends, and if you are feeling adventurous and don't mind rubbing elbows with the 20-something crowd, you can venture down to the Liquid Lounge in the basement for overpriced drinks and dancing after dinner.

Siamville is Cedar Rapid's only Thai restaurant, and Natta cooks there during the week. So if you want truly authentic Thai cuisine, this is the place to go. The food is awesome, the atmosphere is very cozy, and the prices are very reasonable.

La Cantina has "OK" Mexican food, but has great (and cheap) Margaritas as well as Salsa dancing on some nights. Be sure to call ahead and find out if they are hosting Salsa lessons and/or dancing - it's a fun time and very close to our house (about 10 minutes drive).

This is a true Czech Village dive bar, but everyone is very friendly and the bartenders are awesome. The Margaritas are cheap but good, and the pub food is too. You will have fun, probably make new friends and be amazed at how low your tab is at the end of the night.
