★★★★★ 5.0 Adam Schefers · Dec 2025

I think this eatery really elevates oskaloosa as a whole. We ate there to celebrate my parents 60th anniversary and I'm truly grateful that osky has a place to celebrate these incredible milestones. If you know anything about Madonna, you expect an amazing experience. When she was telling everyone about her restaurant her main passion is more about creating memories and an environment and I feel that she did exactly that. The food was great, the atmosphere was wonderful. I really couldn't have asked for any better. Our server was very attentive. Thank you Madonna and crew for such a wonderful day!

We came here from Kansas City for my Grandfather's Celebration of Life gathering. This glorious little Irish pub will always be an impactful location in my memory from now on. I was incredibly impressed with all the aspects of this restaurant. From overall aesthetic, cleanliness, comforability and eatery--Madonna the owner (and her team) has an Irish heart of gold. Her vision, passion, and successful establishment of this pub is definitely seen and respected. The food was absolutely divine and had the perfect pinch of homey Irish finesse. I adored the tender corned beef and cabbage, cabbage with bacon, Shepard's Pie, stew, and Irish soda bread. I felt the McCartney family bond was strengthened in this gathering and my grandfather would have been so elated to know we celebrated his name a

This was a first time visit for my wife and I, which also happened to be our 16th wedding anniversary. We we promptly greeted, seated, and waited upon. The atmosphere was nice and welcoming. We did not have a long wait to order and receive our food. The food was great, and the staff interacted with us, even wishing us a Happy Anniversary and complimentary desserts. The establishment owner also stopped by our table, recognized we were first time visitors, and chatted with us for a few minutes. We will likely go back. Recommend giving this establishment a try.

★★★★★ 5.0 Dennis Hall · Feb 2026

We ordered the fish and chips take-out for our first experience. While waiting for my food, 3 staff interacted with me with excellent customer service, and I had a peek at the drink menu that will definitely bring us back. The food didn’t even make it home, as we devoured it on the way. The fish was light and flaky and honestly some of the best we have ever had. We will be sure to return when we can eat in for the full experience.
