Driving down US-20 and needed lunch. Just called when about 20 minutes away to place a carry out order. Great prices, hot food and friendly service. We picked it up and ate in the car. So much better than the typical fast food we settle for on a road trip! I recommend the sweet potato fries with ranch for your side.

The service was pretty good, but my biggest problem was they cooked the pizza in paper and it was stuck to it. The only reason food isn't at 1 star is because the wings were alright but kinda overcooked. They waitress was nice and sincere abt the paper. We've been here before and it was better I think they fell off.Parking: We had to park across the highway

A few times a year I go to backdraft just to get their BBQ brisket and cream cheese pizza. That is how I have always ordered it. My drive is over an hour one way. When I picked my pizza tonight started back home and decided I wanted a piece. I took a couple of bites and something wasnt right. Who ever made the pizza put BBQ sauce over it instead of the glaze. What a disappointment. I ended up giving it to my neighbors. So much for craving for pizza?

Small town bar with stereotypical small town cafe/grill food.

First time visiting from Des Moines, this dive-bar type restaurant came highly recommended by my date who's from the area. She hyped up the BBQ Beef Brisket pizza. We shared a Large and split it half BBQ Beef Brisket & half Buffalo Chicken.The BBQ Beef Brisket half, the cheese was burnt and made the crust too crunchy & burnt. The cream cheese in my opinion should be mixed within the pizza sauce and not used as globs of cream cheese. I didn't like biting straight into a cream cheese blob. The BBQ Beef Brisket was dry and required additional BBQ sauce.The Buffalo Chicken half tasted dry & burnt too. The Buffalo Chicken wasn't that hot and I've had better. Atmosphere seemed pleasant for an older crowd and service was good. Service was good although we were forgotten about at times as patrons closest to the bar were serviced often.I also ordered an appetizer of Beef Nachos and sadly I can make better Beef Nachos at home. I expected canned nacho cheese bc its profit margins are minimal, but I received way more chips than beef & nacho cheese. For $8 on nachos, that's a rip-off ! Too many chips, hardly any beef, and obvious canned nacho cheese, c'mon. Let's not make it TOO obvious its canned nacho cheese. I'm willing to try Backdraft again in the future as there's not many restaurants in the Correctionville-Holstein-Cherokee area and I love trying local places than travel to Sioux City for national brands. I hope my next visit the pizza will be much better!

12-9-23. Ordered two pizzas there and it was not as great as it was in the past.Their pizzas used to be so GOOD, but this time isn't wasn't. It was burnt and hard to eat.

French fries are hot, crinkle cut, inexpensive, and flavorful. Very few people at bar and as I was looking at the drinks I was ignored. I ordered a water to begin with, but changed my mind. I didn't get a drink because I was not asked again. Good dive bar atmosphere, but scarce of people when I was there early in evening on a Sunday.

Thursday wing night is my favorite! Buy 10 get 10 for $12!? You won't find a deal like this anywhere. The service is also phenomenal!

I stop in here every year when I’m in western IA for work. I order the same BBQ Brisket Pizza with cream cheese and I swear I will stop every chance I get in the area. I drove an hour and a half out of my way to get it this year! Always good with fair prices and great staff!

Well when you first show up you wonder what you’re walking into ? and as bright as it was outside this day when I stepped in all I saw was black because there’s no windows in this place! But it’s clean once the eyes adjusted just an old bar with a back room for families. Plenty of options but plenty of not available right now too. The pizza is what most get and looked really good but I was hungry for a burger. Got a mushroom/Swiss and everything was fresh- and the mushrooms weren’t from a can- good stuff!! And the onions will make your wife refuse to kiss you ?. Was it the best yet? Sorry didn’t win- meat was fresh and cooked good but needs more flavor- so my quest to find the best mushroom/Swiss continues
