Meeting friends in the quad cities we landed on Front Street as the meeting spot. Parking was tough. The place was super busy and a bit loud when we arrived but we were able to get a couple spots at the bar. Service was slow but that was okay. Over the course of an hour or two we had their beers, a soup and some appetizers, all good. Definitely worth four stars.

Salmon&Rice With Caper Dill Sauce
Anna R.

The salmon and rice is ideal for those with food sensitivities and/or those cutting calories since there's minimal oil/butter. Cool vibe, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff. Loved the caper dill sauce! Thanks for the experience.

Blackened Steak or Chicken
Ainsley

I had the blackened chicken wrap and the Goldilocks golden ale. Wrap was great- the honey mustard dressing had a bit of a horseradish kick which I didn't mind. Beer was light and refreshing.

Burger is a bit dry and sweet potato fries are very salty but overall okay for the area.

Buffalo chicken wrap & sweet potato fries. Juanita was fantastic!
Jared C.

Food was quick and delicious. Lunch was easy. Beers were great. Service from Juanita was all you could ask for.

Blue ballz

We were seated quickly and the food was very quick. We ordered the chicken wings for an appetizer and they were great. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with garlic mashed potatoes and it was disappointing. The chicken had no seasoning and the garlic mashed potatoes had no garlic and no flavor.

Bacon and Guacamole Burger Smashed burgers
Aliyah C.

Went at an odd hour (3-4) and was seated quick. Waitress was super nice and attentive. We got some drinks that were yummy (beer, a gin cocktail, and the blue balls). We got poutine fries as an appetizer - I am not a big poutine fan but these were delicious and the fries were salty and crunchy. We all got burgers which were nice. The Mexican smash burger was the best, the other two lacked a little flavor in the patties. Portions were good. My burger came with a side of tater tots which were actually so good and crunchy.

Blackened Chicken Wrap
Julia M.

Front Street is located in an adorable older building downtown, overlooking the river. Despite parking being very limited, my friend and I were seated quickly on a busy Saturday night and got to enjoy the patio atmosphere (would highly recommend the patio, whether permitting!). While being busy with a very large party, service was great and very attentive. We started with the poutine appetizer. It was good, but I'm not sure it really blew me away. I would try a different app next time. Next came the side salad - which the kitchen brought out by mistake, but I happily enjoyed. It was very fresh and had a great blend of lettuce. Finally, for my entree, I chose to order the blackened chicken salad as a wrap. I like that they offer this option! I was very impressed with the amount of protein in the wrap - they were not skimpy with the chicken and it made for a perfect, filling meal. The menu doesn't say so, but the wrap came with tortilla chips and salsa. Overall, this was a solid stop for casual food. Would definitely recommend as a low-key option for meals downtown.

The beers were from like 30 years ago, not up with times. The food was below mid bar food. I wouldn't come back here.

The food is excellent. The cheese curd appetizer is amazing. The entire menu is delicious! Pizzas, flatbread, burgers, sandwiches and salads. The burgers are a family favorite. Service is very attentive and they were quick to rectify the single error we've had in an order. We like the ambiance as well. There is a patio for outdoor seating-very close to the bike path along the river and we often see groups of cyclists stop for refreshments.

It's down across from the river in an older building. There's a good amount of parking and tons of character! We sat outside on a nice night - there were probably 8-10 picnic tables as well as a good amount of seating inside. The beer selection was solid and included a number of nonalcoholic options. The food here is gastropub style stuff and was really good! The Cobb salad was a memorable one with a ton of meat. The kids got Philly cheesesteaks - those were unexpectedly delicious and included homemade cheese whiz. Another kiddo got a chicken bacon ranch flatbread - excellent and reminded delicious out of the fridge the following day! The pizzas looked good too and were (as we found) all available as flatbreads. The service was excellent and despite the busy evening, they got to us quick and took good care of us. We don't often plan to return to out of town spots, but this is one we'll definitely be back to!

We went to 'The Half Nelson' with high hopes from what we'd heard from seasoned locals. While the pork chop was satisfactory, the pork collar they paired it with on the October menu was the saltiest thing I have ever had the misfortune of attempting to consume. It tasted like some sort of salt lick you put in a gerbil cage to supplement their sodium intake. And I won't even get started on how awful the braised greens were... (unspeakably repulsive). The most edible piece of food on the October menu's 'pork two ways' plate were the two miniscule pieces of roasted sweet potato. I thought it was garnish at first only to realize it was the most tasteful component of the dish. Unfortunately, the majority of our dinner party left this restaurant thoroughly disenchanted. My advice to the owners: you have a great atmosphere, find your signatures! Me&Billy's pork chop plate puts your above-referenced pork dish to SHAME. Servers also carry themselves as if they are part of an elite group of fine-dining wizards, but they give Denny's level service and just act as pretentious as they can possibly fake. Bottom line: Fade the .3333 repeating nelson if you want to invest in a fine meal and take your hard earned money down to a place like Me&Billy's. The food will be orders of magnutude better and you won't be made to feel like an inadequate plebian for spending money there. The reason they get two stars is because the building and atmosphere they have is actually quite nice. Perhaps their October menu was a miss, but they won't have me back to see a make.

It located across from the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds on W. Lotus Street. They have a mixed menu of American and Thai dishes they offer. The Gypsy Highway's vibe is a cross between nostalgic late 70's, early 80's biker bar, live indoor/outdoor music venue, while being a full service restaurant and bar. They also have a small arcade in the back a few what look to be video poker or slot machines by the bar, 3 very large LED displays strategically placed around the bar and a massive projection screen TV on the indoor stage when nobody's playing. Sorry I didn't get to look outside at the wood fenced in area, where the wooden outdoor stage is. There is lots of seating and they even have dance nights, local bands perform regularly, and other events. Like when I went there was Trivia Night. This place has been a long time local scene in the West End of Davenport, IA for decades. Couple of the downsides about the atmosphere is the noise. It's Loud. For off hours and a Trivia Night, but not loud enough that you can't hear the person talking across a large round table ment for a party of 8-10 people. The amount of flashing lights in the place. If you have any issues with flashing lights you might not want to visit. There is not a single sight line place inside that does have some sort of constantly flashing light. Even lights that would have been of at any other venue or palace that host bands at their establishments wouldn't run strong stage color ambient lights on, especially those sitting behind a massive screen. Anyone sitting in the back and looking towards the stage (even though those seats not that many but unlucky) are in for a painful night out, if not there for a band. The food is 50/50 depending on what you get. Presentation wise I would give it 80 to 100%. I was with my family and got to try 4/5 dishes. They I had the Yellow Curry w/ Shrimp. I have to say it was really good. It was sweet and savory the Jasmine rice was delicious with it. My only complaint with the dish was it should have been served in served in a bowl of some kind and w/ some Naan bread to help clean the bowl at the end. Serving on a plate made the dish hard to eat. Next up Chicken Tinders and an order of Onion Rings. This should be avoided at all costs!! They look great, but have absolutely zero flavor and taste. That's hard to do when the batter is supposed to be Bear Batter. Same with the french fries. Next is a Cheese Burger w/ (+) Bacon and Onion Rings instead of the Fries. Well the burger was well made and delicious. The Bacon was thick crisp and 4 slices which was good. The replaced Onion Rings well that part gets worse. The count was a measly 5 and not even large ones at that! Last one I got to try was the blackens grilled fish. It was a fillet of haddock covered with some sort of white gravy served with a few pieces of zucchini and a couple of red potatoes halved. I didn't get to try the veg. The fish I did. By itself it was pretty good, but with the gravy it was not noticeably, not as good to almost being tasteless. The gravy overwhelms the fish and doesn't complement, nor enhance the flavor. The waitress we had was nice and answered our questions promptly. She did check in with us from time to time. Overall she gets a 9/10. Hope y'all like my review and read next time. Sorry no pics this time forgot my phone.
