Reviews for Schera's Algerian American Restaurant in Elkader, IA

Amazing beer menu! Added a beef & goat sausage to my meal that was amazing. Salad was so fresh with a peppercorn Parmesan... dressing Read more

Hadn't tried Algerian food before so we checked this place out during our stay -- delish! Good food, nice craft beer selection,... friendly staff, and outdoor seating on the river. Read more

The food here is excellent and they have a great beer selection. The falafel was great along with everything we ordered. The... price is not bad either. Update: Back again and even more impressed than last time! The appetizers and beer are bomb! Read more

Hadn't been here in years, had a great lunch, with exceptional service and food.

Lunch on Wednesday was very relaxing. Ate on deck overlooking the Turkey River. Schera's was our destination on a motorcycle... ride. Will definitely come again Read more

Had a much needed girl time lunch on the deck..it was fabulous! Would recommend it to anyone.. We waited a little bit. But the... site of the river, conversation and good drinks..made it so worth every bite! Can't wait for the next visit. Read more

Incredible beverage selection, unmatched in the state, especially for eclectic craft beers and natural wine. Very scenic river... view of the stone bridge, relaxing patio. Tasty and creative dishes, prepared with care. A culinary destination in NE Iowa. Read more

The list of beer you're given when seated is unreal for this little town. Then I was given the bottle and glass to pour it in... which read "The Red Monk" and it all became clear. Had no idea going into this restaurant that it was owned by the same peoplewho run the great Des Moines establishment. I saw an episode of Iowa ingredient detailing their menu and whatnot and put it on alist of must try restaurants around Iowa. Since I was passing thru to do some trout fishing I had to stop in. Service and foodwere phenominal. I had a pita, sesame seed, herb blend (including sumac!), and cheese along with olives for a starter. It was sofresh on this 90 degree day. The lamb tagine is making me sweat but has the best smoked paprika I've ever tasted. I would highlyrecommend if you're ever near Elader. Back to my dish! Read more
