The food was very good, didnt have to wait long for it. The waitress a very short girl with dark hair was a really nice girl. She did her job well for the only person there besides the cook. It could have been a little cleaner, but she was by herself. And it look like there was alot stuff maybe taken off the walls at the downtown location of Davenport. Like I said the food was delicious. We will be back..??

Food was nothing to write about. Service was good. Freezing cold in the restaurant. Waitress said they had no control over heat. Waitress is no bartender. Long Island ice tea tasted like Pepsi.

Had their catering at a wedding last year and it was fantastic! Still haven't made my way to the actual restaurant tho, but would recommend them to cater your next event!

This restaurant is very conveniently located in the downtown area of Davenport. Our food was delicious and was served quickly. Highly recommend Huli Huli chicken dishes! They have live music on certain nights too.

As a new resident of the Quad Cities I had high hopes for Zeke, he had at least three locations which must mean that the food was good, right? Sadly, no.We had the pulled pork and the crab cakes with sides of coleslaw, black beans, and egg roll and the macaroni salad. Not a single dish impressed us, and one--the pulled pork--was almost inedible because of the texture, not to mention the taste. The meat was mushy and almost devoid of taste. In fact, every dish's taste was so far from Caribbean food (which I've had in the Caribbean) we couldn't even finish our meal. Everything was bland. The only bright spot as far as taste went was the spring roll sauce, and I'm pretty sure they didn't make it.The service was good, though, no complaints there.However, no matter how good the service was, we won't be going back. We both love Caribbean food, but Zeke's does not have it.

I got the Hawaiian bowl (Hawaiian style chicken and pork with rice). It was very flavorful and filling.

We had a late lunch/early supper. The meal was filling and enjoyable. Google thought it was "Busier than Usual" but for a while we were the only customers. They advertised "Open Mike" later. Beer selection was limited with no local craft beer on tap. They did have a fairly unique menu, but not as interesting or tasty as we expected.

Food was good. We had the 1/2 lb huli huli chicken nachos and sliders with macaroni salad. The sliders were soggy at the bottom and seemed like the macaroni noodles were overcooked. The nachos were great though! I also had a cocktail that was refreshing.

This place is so up and down. Last experience was not great. The cost you pay for the food is almost ridiculous anymore. I swear they count the chips you receive with your meal. Sliders were meek and the overall portion compared to a few months ago is astonishing. I love the food and used to be an avid visitor but once again taking this off my rotation.

Decided to stop in for a new experience tonight. Let's just say it was underwhelming! After walking in and ordering. We noticed all the food was being cooked in air fryers and instant pots. The food wasn't disgusting. However, the food is definitley NOT cooked fresh. The grilled shrimp was not grilled. Nor was my Wife's "NEW" j*** chicken. Which was also prepared in an instant pot. The kitchen looked like a storage bin. Especially underneath the ventilation hood. We won't be back. Wondering how this place is getting such a good rating and has two more retaurants? If all the food is prepared like the one downtown!?

We all enjoyed our meals. My wife had the tacos and they were HUGE and tasty! And my huli hulu chicken was divine!The kids' chips and cheese wasn't much of a meal so take a pass on that one.
