“We ordered the Christmas Dinner pickup. It could not have been any better! The menu was really unique and included some delicious appetizers. The apple cinnamon bread pudding with caramel sauce were to die for. Odette exceeded our expectations and made Christmas Eve dinner really special. Thank you for providing with such extraordinary food!“

“I've lived in the quad cities area all my life and I honestly haven't been to this place since I was a kid and it was a different name then. I came this morning for breakfast and it was a 10/10 experience! You walk in and there's 2 girls at the front greeting you with a smile! My food was excellent! It came out fresh and was VERY plentiful. The place is well kept and clean as well. At the end I paid under 15 dollars for a French toast platter and sweet tea! I can't wait to come back for breakfast again and I also want to try their lunch as well.“

“I always get the cheesy chicken fries and an orange Julius and it is always delicious!! The prices are great too!“

Whether you join the well trained staff for a birthday dinner, incredible local musical talents, or a night out on the town…THEY ARE ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PLACES! Flobama is perfect if your looking to eat slow smoke fall off the bone ribs, top quality burgers full of bold flavor/variety, or snacking on perfectly crisp fried pickles. Kids friendly during the appropriate hours of before 8:30. The kids love the Elvis impersonation act they book pretty consistently throughout the year. EAT.LISTEN.ENJOY IS A PERFECT LOGO TO DESCRIBE YOUR EXPERIENCE at FLOBAMA. Give it a try, I can give you a 100% guarantee you’ll be glad you did.“

“First time ever! Went to go to another restaurant but they were closed, so glad they were. Zachary was our waiter, great guy, wonderful service, excellent food, & the bartender was like no other. Best Ribs & Chicken anywhere! Steak with house sauce was excellent! Last but not least the skillet brownie had ice cream & caramel sauce. It was fresh & hot YUMMY. To say the least 5 STARS! We will definitely be back!! Oh by the way Happy Birthday Zachary!“

“Our waitress at the florence blvd. Restaurant was absolutely Amazing. She is the sweetest . We were getting together for my mom's birthday(she passed away last year) this has always been a special time for us. . Wanted to give her recognition. Thank you to you all“

“My order was taken away. That being said, the food was good and tasted fresh. The service time was a little slow for club sandwiches considering how many people were in the restaurant at the time. We love the place and will keep coming back.“

“The food is fresh, authentic, and delicious! You also can’t beat the service or having Jack himself check on you to be sure you are enjoying your meal. Highly recommend!“

“Amazing 💜 Tonight 10pm 😉💎“

“Went back tonight an my food was amazing had ribeye baked potato an salad great job yall“

“Stopped by Rick’s to pick up some dinner in the way home, so I just ran through the drive through.

Service was quick and pleasant.

We opted for a Pulled pork plate with baked beans and potato salad; and a wing snack with vinegar slaw.

Pulled pork was moist and smoky. No sauce needed. Sides were excellent.

Wings were cooked nicely and I added a little of their mild BBQ sauce. Gave it a nice flavor. The vinegar slaw was a little dry and bland. Could have used some salt.

Overall good meal. No real complaints. Would go back.“

“The food was excellent. 3 of us, and we all had a steak plate plus sides along with freshly baked mini loaf of bread with butter that went great with my iced fruit tea. There was a medium well, a well done and a medium rare. All 3 steaks were cooked to perfection. Baked potato for all, two of us had fire-grilled corn on the cob, one was grilled to perfection coated with butter and a touch of ranch dressing springled with herbs and mild spice. The other corn cob was a little over done but not bad. Our waitress had a pleasant personality, attentive to our needs, kept our drinks topped off plus the last one was in a to-go cup. Excellent meal cooked as requested with the one exception (corn cob). Excellent service, family style atmosphere, semi - busy but no delays in our meal. One steak was the Long Horn, a 22 oz. Porterhouse for $34 with the other two being New York Strip dinners for $25 per person. I had the fruit tea with the first one being Raspberry and the to-go cup being peach (both very good). The third member of our party of 3 is a diabetic with celiac issues. He asked that his meal be prepared using a gluten free method which did not appear to be an issue which was nice. My grandson now knows a great restaurant, with an excellent menu, properly prepared to his needs with excellent service. For those that like a beer or mixed drink with their meal, LongHorn Steakhouse has a full bar with sit down service for a before and after dinner cocktail. All in all a great way to spend an afternoon with my Son-in-Law and grandson. Definitely going back.
5 Stars.“

“We love this restaurant and have quite a few dinners from there. Food is delicious right down to the banana pudding if your lucky enough to catch it before gone. I’m trying their fish this Friday.“

“Let's start with the bad first, the waiter was not very good at all. This was late but still way before closing. There's just too many things to list that he needs to improve on. I'll list one thing. I had to hunt him down twice. Now on to the food. I absolutely loved the Mariners Boil. Old Bay and butter. It was delicious. I'm from Maryland and have seriously missed the steamed blue crabs. This didn't take their place but it sure helped.“

“Welp 😂 what can I say? Everyone loves a good Waffle House. My only complaints were that our wait was longer than expected and that was because one of the waitresses saw one of her regulars and sat them as soon as they walked in. Nevermind the other people like myself that was waiting. The other was my grits. They were thick and apparently I got the thick crusty part that sticks to the upper inside of the pot.“

“I have ALWAYS loved Logans, tonight I decided to get takeout because I just didn’t feel like sitting in a restaurant to eat. The To-Go person named Devin was amazing, she made sure I got everything I needed in my bag and was very patient with me. Over the phone I didn’t know what I wanted ( because I don’t have a menu right in-front of me) I kept feeling embarrassed! She reassured me that it was okay that I just take all the time I need. Hands down best to go service I have EVER received.“

“Yup there was wings for sure“

“After a long day of travel baseball we decided to visit captain d. It was late 9:30 but the staff was welcoming and happy we were there. Not crowded but drive thru was hopping. The food and service was excellent. Will definitely visit again.“

“So good! Chris made an excellent omelette! Service was great!“

“My daughter and I decided to give chilis another chance after a very long time…. I am glad we did! Elizabeth was our server and she was fantastic! The food was great! I am so happy that we finally had a positive experience because chilis used to be one of my fave places! I tried to call after we left to leave a review with the manager but was placed on hold and then disconnected after being told it was extremely busy and might be awhile. But I WILL NOT hold this against them! I understand and will be back! Make sure Elizabeth knows that her great service did not go unnoticed!“
