We were passing through Dubuque, looking at dining options like the casino and nearby places, and…read morewe saw this place on the map. It caught our eye, so we decided to give it a try. It was the best decision we made that day. The food was incredible, the atmosphere was exquisite, and we were served outside facing the river. The service was also excellent; a lady even spoke Spanish to make us feel more appreciated. I don't remember her name, but I'm very grateful for her kind attention. By the way, I should point out that the portions are very generous.

We ate on the deck and enjoyed the balmy weather and the sunset. The waitress was patient and…read moretimely. We had the Long Island and Mississippi Backwater cocktails. The spinach dip in the bread bowl with the tortilla chips was amazing. The entrées were delicious. Blue had a sampler of barbecue meat- so good, and I had the jambalaya - hot spicy and really tasty. We tried the chocolate chip bread pudding, which was tasty but very hot. We got it to go because we knew we couldn't eat the whole thing. Lovely place to have dinner on the river. the only downsides were the soups in that clam chowder was thin and had no potatoes. No clams was pretty much warm milk with celery and the beer cheese soup was too thick and a little too cloy, would've been good with the chips from the appetizer.

Which has you park out back and yet entrance is in the front of the building that faces the busy road. Ordered the Jambalaya....took forever to get served and the meat to rice ratio was very disappointing. A few pieces of shrimp and not much more pieces of sausage...they were tasty but lacking in quantity. Ended up asking for a lid for the plastic container it was served in because it took so long to get that I was now running late for my meeting. I really wanted to like the place but it's going to be a hard sell for me to go back.

The Manhattan was served on the rocks and simply was rye poured out of the bottle into the glass with a splash of vermouth. The old fashioned prepared in the same way. Bourbon on the rocks with a splash of some sort of premade mix. Oysters were ok, a bit fishy smelling but we ate in the Midwest. Desserts were definitely the highlight although pretty small, not suitable for sharing.

We never got checked on, no refill and had to ask another server for napkins because our waitress spent the whole time we were there at a table near us with I can only assume was her boyfriend or husband. I really felt like we were annoying her by even being sat in her section as it took her eventually away from BF to even take her order.

But if you're going to the restaurant, expecting flavorful and fresh tasting seafood with good service and without Frills, then I think it earns at least 4 (the deduction is just that my table wasn't as clean as I would've liked it when we were seated, and I didn't love the taste of the corn included in the meal, but my partner loved it so maybe it's just a personal preference). I'd say this is a good casual spot and one bag is enough to share for at least 2 to 3 people.

It's clearly designed with groups in mind, offering plenty of spacious seating that makes it perfect for gatherings and fun. Arrived right at opening (4:00 PM). While I wish someone had welcomed me when I first walked in and was looking for my party, the staff overall were very kind. Our server was especially helpful in guiding us through the menu. The flavors were fantastic across the board. The gumbo had a great taste, though I personally prefer a bit more body to it. The chimichanga was beautifully presented, like all their dishes, which easily score a 10/10 for visual appeal. It was tasty, but a bit heavy on the rice and could've used a touch more meat. Despite a few small critiques, the overall experience was enjoyable. Great ambiance, friendly service, and flavorful food make this a spot worth visiting--especially with a group!
