Doty's Restaurant Review

Great atmosphere, simple menu but they know what there doing! Best burger I think I have ever had! #southerner

Asked the waitress what her favorite was, she said the Southern burger. It was amazing. Great food, great service!

Pretty good place to eat, great owner, and a great town as well. Definitely a must if you are visiting NE Iowa. Only complaint is that I wish they had fried dill pickles instead of sweet.

Rustic theme with some outdoor seating. Great food , friendly service

Everything was great. Be eating here again soon !!!

Brisket Sandwich is to die for.
Great beer selection and reasonable prices.
Definately a destination.

Love it, the southwestern eggroll are to die for....

Great food Great service and Great people, we'll definitely be back !!!

Paid $10 for pasta and sauce, no seafood, no meat. Beer was good.

My son and I had an awesome experience. The Southern Burger was amazing with the candied sweet potato. I will definately come back and send people your way.

Everything I have had here has been great! From salmon dinner to Mac n Cheese, I love the food and the friendly atmosphere here too.

Great burgers and fries! The decor is unique. I recommend their cheese burger or the bourbon chicken. They make a good strawberry Moscow mule and margarita too!

Went for my birthday and had a good experience. Salad bar was baaaaaad. The food that I ordered was very good.

Fabulous food and service. The burgers are amazing!

Great food, Great atmosphere. We will be back again.

Excellent meal and service
Disappointed didn't get to seeJimmy D

I can't say enough good things about the service, food and atmosphere!! Service was FANTASTIC! Food was SUPERB! Atmosphere is WELCOMING!!

This place is closed. It's for sale and no longer open.

Food was very good, waitress was awesome . Cozy atmosphere . Worth the trip .

A cozy place on the corner. Always i d like to eat here the waitress is excellent and so is the food

Excellent food. Reasonable prices - very friendly and great service! Comfortable surroundings

Food is excellent, the place fills fast. Recommend it.

We were told that the Brisket here was great and - after sharing a plate - we were told correctly. The theme of the restaurant is western, the clientele is local, and the food and drinks are good.

We were warned that they may have to switch to cash-only soon.

Great burgers. The restaurant was full on a Saturday night but no wait, they flipped tables fast and always managed to just have 1 spot open when someone came in. The food was excellent but seemed a little light on the spices and salt for my tastes. The drinks were even better, I had what they call a watermelon crawl and it perfectly evoked spring/summer refreshment I was looking for that day.

One of the best parts is their specials on certain nights. Date night special, Italian special, taco Tuesday, and they even do Sunday brunch and prime rib on special occasions.

They also have a good salad bar, salad and all the toppings and sauces, a few pastas, a soup, cottage cheese, even herring.

Really laid back atmosphere. Some decent beers. Food was a pleasant surprise. They really hit their marks. We will be back.

Amazing food, wonderful staff and delicious cocktails.

Cute little quaint bar/pub place in Elgin, TOTALLY not expecting to get a good meal in such a tiny town but Dotzys didn't disappoint. I got the pulled pork and Cole slaw sandwich YUM it was amazing. With homemade potato chips and a great drink.
Decor and seating was right up our alley, rustic wood, pullies holding up mason jar lighting... I could go on and on...
Only negative would be seating? Not alot of room for guests but is worth a wait or sit out front. Very nice, a must stop.

Followed other reviewers advice and ordered the southern burger, would highly recommend ! Drink menu and atmosphere were great, and the bartender took time to tell us about the history of the building. Awesome visit, will be back!

Great atmosphere! Good drinks. Had the best BLT and soup.

Excellent folks and excellent chow. Great atmosphere!

Outstanding food amazing atmosphere and wonderfull people!!

Always a great time with great food and drinks. For a real fun night go to trivia night on a Sunday night.

Owner is a doll! Wish she'd give me a chance! Wear a cowboy hat! It's worth the wink! Heard she's a model or something! I love her and her food!

Great atmosphere and friendly service. The burger selection is out of this world. Lots or creative drinks to choose from as well. 27,000 pennies in the floor!

They were busy, but still managed to serve up delicious food! Great staff as well!

Great food. Great atmosphere. Wish we lived closer. Worth the trip.

Food is mediocre and the prices are outrageous. Bandanas they wrap the utensils in are a cool idea for the theme but they feel like they been on someones greasy head for a week.

Great Food. Portion sizes are large. If you go away hungry it's of your own accord.

Waitress was prompt and very informative.

Wow.!.and any other adjectives that come close. If you are remotely close to Elgin Iowa you MUST dine here ... serious!!

Super good food and great atmosphere. They put a ton of work in this place. Very original and the bathrooms are super cool too

Great service, but limited food choices, and it was cash only.

Seriously amazing food. Great service, there was an issue with our order and they promptly comped the meal with out hesitation. We will be back next time we are in town.

Awesome place to eat and drink. Well worth the drive! I had the Southern Burger...TO DIE FOR!

Delicious pub food, friendly service, clean, decorated with creative western style and impressive penny floor! Located in Elgin's attractive downtown, near a great corn maze.

Excellent food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Wednesday night "date night" was a lot of food for $30!

A really nice restaurant with lovely people running it. Just wish they would invest in a grill hood to air out the smoke from cooking. It was starting to get hard to breathe in there! I don t know how the staff stand it.

Fantastic small town restaurant - western theme, great food and staff. Definitely recommend!

This place was an awesome find. The food was excellent. The drinks were fantastic. The food was fabulous. And the service was great.
