"Fantastic! I am a marine that took my girlfriend out on a date here while on leave. They sat us at a beautiful corner table with a curtain for privacy. They made an extra effort to make sure our night was special and memorable. Along with the amazing decor and service, the food was outstanding. I ate some of the best steak and potatos I have ever had. The food came fast and the personal delivery by the chef was a nice added touch. I can't speak highly enough for this place. A little on the steap end as far as price but defiantly worth it!"

"Probably my only complaint was our initial finding out everyone would get charged $12 on top of the $9 omelete they were ordering. The waiter came back to say they'd do a strait $12 for the whole table but that still didn't seem right for the folks ordering $9 entree's. At any rate the food was very good, however Class Act ended up losing 5 people to just omelete's instead of the brunch because of that. Don't think we'd do the brunch again. Thanks!"

"Waiter very personable with pleasant demeanor. Attentive/timely service not always consistent. Also needs better instruction on proper wine bottle opening at table and serving (as a teaching opportunity if he is working in more sophisticated dining)."

"Had a very nice birthday dinner here. Nice place with great modern decor, food you can't find at your average Cedar Rapids chain, decent prices. Too bad the local Kirkwood produced wines aren't on the menu. They did let us buy a bottle of LaCrosse, unfortunately it was served at room temp. We'll be back."

"We enjoyed the Class Act for the first time last Saturday. We were delighted with the wonderful dinner selections. The trout served with lentils and cauliflower was "superb" -- and don't choose that word very often. My wife highly complimented the vegetarian polenta dish. The wine selection was very good. To accompany our wine, I chose a Spanish sauvigon blanc, at a very reasonalbe price: I could not have been happier with the selection. The Class Act is a real gem and would recommend the restaurant to anyone seeking execellent cuisine as very fair prices. Bruce Fehn"
