Traveling through from Columbus Nebraska and stopped at Larson's Pub. They claim to have the best tender loin sandwich in Iowa and they didn't disappoint! It was awesome. Service was fantastic, and our serve, Danielle, was the best and made you feel welcome...Most highly recommended.

Excellent service and food. Stopped by one day for a light lunch. Ordered a pork tenderloin sandwich and onion drops (fried onions). The tenderloin was extremely tender and wasn't overly fried, crunchy on the outside of the breading and then softer towards the meat. The onion drops were fried to perfection as well.At first, I didn't think there was a bun until I ate some of the onion drops. So much for a light lunch! I'm from the Elk Horn area and live in Arizona where you have trouble finding a tenderloin, let alone an excellent one like this!

Best tenderloin sandwich I've ever had. Check the hours of operation before planning on a side trip...or stop by the local antique mall in their off hours.There's a surprisingly high quality feel in the little pub. I look forward to going back!

The Tenderloin was thin, but not so thin that it was dry. Breading was good. I understand why they were voted Best Tenderloin in Iowa a few years ago. The breaded Cauliflower was delicious, also. Next time, I'll try their Cod. All sandwiches were 6.50.

We are not close to this GREAT place, but try not to miss a chance to stop in to enjoy a magnificent pork tenderloin sandwich and a very cold beer. Small and clean, so don't be surprised if you can't be seated when you get inside. If you get in and seated you will understand why the sandwich is an Iowa award winner.
