I tried their Screw City Lager which was very good. My wife had their homemade Root Beer. We decided to split a few food items..Taquitos and Tacos. Both were outstanding. The Taquitos were made with a locally sourced pork barbacoa . The Shrimp Tacos were some of the best I ever had. Chili Garlic Tiger Shrimp with a sweet corn elote made the flavor pop. There was more than enough for us to share. Service was very good and there is plenty of parking available. I will definitely go back on a day when I can enjoy their outdoor dining area.

I can't believe we found the best taquitos and shrimp tacos we have ever tasted in this brewpub in…read moreRockford. The list of brews is impressive and they even make their own root beer which I enjoyed because it is not heavily carbonated. The historic building and industrial yet comfortable interior added to the experience. It is located on the Rock River and the Dockside Taproom faces it with great views. They also have a huge selection to host events. To top it off our server Efstathia was friendly and helpful. I recommend this stop in Rockford.

We sat at the bar for a drink while we waited for a table. I had a white Russian and my wife had a specialty cocktail, I don't remember what it was. We both enjoyed our drinks. We were seated in some elevated booths that had a view of the bar area, which was absolutely fantastic!! There is tons of regular restaurant seating in the back dining room rooms... We had the pig candy, cheese, curds, and the waitress recommended the fresh bread. The pig candy was very rich. One piece was enough for me. The cheese curds were very large bigger than tater tots. They tasted good, but I prefer smaller cheese curds. The waitress was right, the bread stole the show! One of the butters that it came with was cinnamon, which was fantastic! Dinner salad was very good. Tasted like homemade dressing. My wife had the pig sandwich and I had the gnocchi. Both were great, including the accoutrements like the french fries and garlic bread. The hostess came around, giving the ladies coronations, which was a nice touch. Great service and just genuinely nice people! We eat out every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This is now on our list.

Fried fish is the specialty of the house. They also feature wings, tenders, and Philly cheese steaks, as well as bulk orders on the fish and shrimp, and a few other fried sides choices. I grabbed a catfish "meal" which comes with 3-4 fillets, french fries, and I got a side of fried okra for an additional charge. I'm gonna guess the fish is dusted with lemon pepper, seems to be a thing around these parts. The breading was seasoned corn meal and not overbearing. Fries were good, so was the okra. At under $10, it's a good value. The restaurants are "simple trappings," seems like they are more geared to drive thru/pick up service than dine in, but there are tables. There are multiple locations in Rockford.

Everything was fresh, really delicious, and their lemon pepper seasoning is great! Started with an appetizer of hot wings, no complaints here. Serve with celery and blue cheese. Very reasonably priced. I guess they are famous for their catfish dinner. I will order that next time I'm in town. This place is a must try if you're in the area.

For a fast food joint, this place is good. Almost stupid good…read more Pros: +This place is tasty. I've had cajun strips, light meat, dark meat, chicken bites, and rice. None of it disappointed. +Love the jambalaya. Its the closest thing I can find as a replacement for cajun rice and it is an andequate substitute. +Service has always been friendly, good, and efficient Cons: -No fountain pop. This is a nit pick -Pricing is "a little more" in terms of a dinner option in my opinion, however the quality well makes up for the buck or two more. Bottom line: If it wasn't for the fact this is actually a chain, I would have done a Youtube spot on these guys. They have effectively dislodged Popeyes.

Just sorry I didn't get a photo as I ate too quickly. One piece of advice - it would be nice if the restaurant had an updated website with a menu or frequency updated social media presence.
