“The store was near immaculately clean. Not even lying. Sure there were some boxes out with stock to be put away but they were minimal and I also counted 3 employees actively putting product out during my short snack visit. The aisles and products were clean, organized, and displayed appropriately. Most importantly though, the staff there has always been friendly, and not just with me. I see their kindness and good customer service across the board, with all types of people, ages, and walks of life. Even showing kindness to those that treat the staff sub-par. I really gotta applaud the staff and especially the management here; I've already verbally expressed to staff, "I'm never going back to the IC location."”
“This is a good “scratch and dent” grocery store. Some items are expired so don’t forget to date check, but they are usually a good buy that can save you lots of money! I can usually get lots of things and a small amount of money! If you’re near by definitely check it out!”

2401 Scott Blvd SE, Iowa City“As usual my most recent visit to Restore was a good experience. They have good prices and lots of variety. You never know what you will find and that's part of what I enjoy. This unpredictability can be frustrating, however, because they may not have what you want. Staff there are great. They seem to be less well stocked since pandemic so I only gave them 4 stars. Hope people start donating again.”

41 Hwy 1 W, Iowa City“I feel bad that people are giving this place a bad rap and I can't understand why it has 3.7 overall. The store is great and has so many items it's kind of mind-boggling how many products they actually have I'll have to Ill after aisle and the prices are not bad and the help of employees are very friendly. I'm not sure what the hell you people expect from a dollar store but I suggest you reevaluate your reviews people don't understand how hurtful it can be to a business...”
“The name of the store says it all. For a store to suplly products at this price, there is definitely some tight budget. I wouldn’t expect super clean restrooms, super neat service and all. Good one for budget shopping, especially for decorating items and some household items.”
“The usual Five Below. It's hot all of your particular things. All for around 5 to 10 dollars. Great place if you don't want to spend a ton of money on a variety of items. My teens love it because, for them, it's value based on getting what they want. For me, I have a sweet tooth and an eye for electronics. It's the five and dime from my childhood.”
