“Nothing Fancy, Just Good Food!”
The Family Table started as a root beer stand at least 65 years ago. No one knows for sure when it was opened. Many people say," It's just always been there." It was just a small building with picnic tables until 1972. And some say, a hundred years ago a family raised race horses on the land. In 1972 the existing building was built and it became Decorah's A&W. Years later it went through different owners and during the process the A&W franchise was dropped and it was renamed the Family Table. In November of 1993 Scott and Stacey Gossling purchased the restaurant and are still the current owners. In the fall of 2003, the restaurant was completely remodeled and they put on an addition. Through the years the concept has always been the same at the Family Table, nothing fancy just good food. The owners, Scott and Stacey, have always worked in the food service industry. Scott graduated from Buena Vista University in Storm Lake, Iowa with a Bachelor's degree in History. Stacey graduated from Midland Lutheran College in Fremont, Nebraska with a Bachelor's degree in Human Services. Scott grew up on a farm by Waucoma, Iowa. He is a 1986 graduate from Turkey Valley High School. Stacey's family moved around many times due to her father's job. She lived in Massachusetts, New York and graduated from Klein High School in 1986 in Spring, Texas.
Even with new owners, the service, food, and ambiance at Family Table is the same excellence that it always has been. Their tagline says it all, "Nothing fancy just good food." Read more

Reliably good. Really is what you'd expect from your "grandma's kitchen". Serving sizes are comfortably portioned with a reasonable price to match. Wait staff is down home friendly. Read more
