“So darn good! We were camping in town for an extended weekend, and we tried this establishment for our first meal. We ate here once a day after that, and we tried several things and everything was perfect especially the fries. Drinks and food are both well priced and well portioned.“

“Excellent burgers, huge list of choices. I had the olive burger with Swiss cheese. Delish! Others had the BLT burger, steak sandwich, and steak salad. All were excellent. Service was delightful, very friendly. We arrived at end tail end of the lunch hour and our order was a bit slow in arriving, but food was hot, fresh, and good. Atmosphere is casual, light-hearted with an auto garage theme. Highly recommended!“

“The food was fantastic, the service I can't say enough about. It is some of the best service I have ever had. We were told by 3 different employees on the way out thank you with a smile. I would highly recommend!“

“CORRECTION TO LOCATION IS Perkins in Waterloo Iowa I recommend their meatloaf dinner, the salmon and any one of the soups. Plus they have great customer service. Krista is top tier in customer service!!!!“

“I visited the Dubuque, IA Maid-Rite about 2:30 PM on Saturday, June 7. I ordered the Maid-Rite basket which consists of a Maid-Rite, fries and a drink (lemonade for me). The food itself was all good especially the Maid-Rite sandwich (I used to live in Marshalltown, IA a few blocks away from Taylor's Maid-Rite in that town). The service was just OK and perhaps a little on the cold side. I was not offered a refill on my lemonade, so I guess this means no free refills at this restaurant (ask for a glass of water or pay for another drink if you're still thirsty!).“

“Thank you Ben for the excellent service!! We had the pork cheek app,and we both had the fried chicken. Both were done extremely well. The chicken was moist, tender and crispy. 4 portions of chicken on each plate with a very well made and generous corn bread. Again thank you Ben and the staff for the wonderful service“

“We came in town for a weekend getaway and found this place after being told a couple other restaurants were on a wait. And I am glad we did...Great food, great drinks, and the service was perfect! highly recommended!“

“Best gyro that I have ever eaten!“

“The atmosphere has the charm of a classic small diner. The food was solid - satisfying without breaking the bank. Our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout our meal, making sure we had everything we needed. Overall, a great spot for a casual, no-fuss breakfast experience.“

“Latest Update: The owner of this Culver's establishment, called me and apologized very professionally, and with understanding. He explained the mix-up, as they had recently started serving smashburgers, the latest trend, I did not know this myself. I told him that the traditional Culver's Burger is what I wanted. In my opinion, sometimes traditional is best. He was very kind in his offer to make up for the mistake.

I mainly work at night, and yesterday I left on a 5-hour trip southwest, not eating any lunch or dinner, as it would make me sluggish for work. I worked overnight and then drove another 6 hours back to Dubuque honestly, looking forward to some Burger King, but when I arrived at 9:45 a.m., they refused to make me a burger and fries, because their policy said they couldn't serve lunch food until 10:30 a.m. So I said to myself, Culver's won't let me down, they'll serve me a burger and fries at any time as long as they're open, and they were, so I ordered a double bacon cheeseburger in the Drive-Thru. The attendant asked me if I wanted anything else on my burger besides cheese and bacon, and I said a light amount of mayo please. They said okay, and please move forward. I then requested an extra small fry at the window, and they added that. They then asked me to move forward after putting my number sticker on my truck mirror. After moving up multiple times, and eventually being the first car in the line, I noticed three people had been served before me, and they were behind me. I called culver's, and they apologized that they had served my food to another party by accident, and didn't bother to tell me, but instead hastily remade my meal. Again I had ordered a double bacon cheeseburger, with a light amount of mayo on it. They provided me a double bacon cheeseburger with pickles, onions, mustard, and ketchup on it, a sloppy, soggy, mess, and they rushed the cooking of the patties, burning them on top, and not cooking them enough on the bottom, and it looks like they smashed the heck out of the patty, as it does not look like the usual thick and Hardy butter burger patty (see the picture). The freeze must have been Doug out of the remnants of the last batch, instead of being made fresh, because they were all stuck together and not the hottest they could have been.
When I got home, 20 minutes later, expecting to be able to sit down, watch an old movie, and finally eat some good food, I opened up my food and put it on a plate, and saw this. I called about it, explain the screw-ups, and that I was allergic to onions (not something like a tiny bit of onion powder in ketchup, but full on onions and their juices), and the manager, Ann, was very bureaucratic about it very robot like, giving me the usual response that you would expect from management. "Oh, I'm so sorry for that. If you come in before 4:00 p.m., we will replace your meal for free, and give you a coupon. If you don't come in before 4:00 p.m., I'll have to mail you a free coupon." So I asked, "a replacement meal, after all these screw ups? How about a couple free meals, or a free family meal?", and she responded, "I'm sorry, I can't do that, but if you come in before 4:00 p.m. I can replace your meal and give you a coupon", her programming responded. It seems like a lot of fast food restaurants, even culver's, are now just a bunch of robots, that have no compassion, no care for their jobs, or the quality of their work, or treating customers with respect, and actually making up for three major mistakes in a row, giving my order to someone else, and not telling me, remaking the order but making it wrong, and cooking the food too fast on the remake, and creating crap, instead of food.

Update: Either a Culver's Bot responded to my post, or again they are shirking their responsibility of truly making up for this, by telling me to go complain somewhere else and give them some feedback; with no mention about ma“

“An exceptional dining experience awaits at Dockside Bar & Grille, where the focus on quality ingredients and masterful preparation shines through in every dish.

Whether you're in the mood for a classic cocktail or a creative new concoction, they'll deliver an experience that complements your meal beautifully. Dockside Bar & Grille is more than just a place to eat; it's a destination for expertly prepared food and drink in a welcoming atmosphere.“

“Love love love the Broasted Chicken“

“Joe, neighbors, Connie, cook. great experience!“

“You can’t go wrong with one of the best deals in town. I’ve been going to Jacks ever since I was a kid, and it still never disappoints. For $20, you get 8 pieces of some of the best chicken around, mashed potatoes, dinner rolls, coleslaw, and you definitely can’t forget the onion rings. That meal always hits. If you haven’t been to Jacks Chicken Palace in a while, do yourself a favor and stop in. Local spot, great people, and consistently fantastic food!!!“

“we were seriously disappointed. I recommend avoiding this place.“

“Enjoyed a great burger with live Music“

“excellent, fast and hot food. great service! the Eggs Benedict was fantastic.“

“Fat Tuesdays is little New Orleans ,but alot better you have all your family and friends with the best Cajun food just like the bayou so you need some great company or maybe just a Hurricane, you will leave with a smile.“

“wonderful meal with quality family time (13 guests). Special thanks to Chris, our server, for your patience, Courtesy, and excellent service. we appreciate you!“

“My adult children and I met at Lina’s for food and drinks and it was fantastic. The food from Lina’s lounge and Thai Bistro was delicious, and we were able to sit outside with the kids and dogs. We highly recommend!!“

“They have done an AMAZING rehab of this store - I was mind-boggled! It's gorgeous, bright and opulent inside. I got back to my hotel late at night and all the restaurants were closed. HY Vee has a huge selection of pre-made, delicious food choices. Grab a fork, I forgot!“

“Our hostess Yolanda was awesome!
Very friendly greeted us with a smile and stopped by our table b/4 we left to say good bye and thanked us for dinning at Applebees.
It was only her second day on the job.
You need more people like her.

“Everything was delicious, especially the ranch and beer cheese. We had the pretzel buoys, grilled shrimp, mushroom swiss burger, French dip, grilled cheese, and the chipolte chicken. Service was great! And the view was beautiful. We will be back!“

“Great food 10 out of 10 on these wings!!“

“Best pizza and baked mostaccioli !!! Been coming here for over 40 years!!“

“Most of us had a good meal last night however one hamburger was very overcooked. When the manager came by and we told him about it, he put it back on us for not ordering it correctly. The server never asked how we wanted it prepared so apparently if you don’t specify they will automatically cook it well done. I think this should be a question the servers ask rather than a customer remembering to state that.“

“I have NEVER had a bad meal there. Because I've been there so often, I always request the same server and gotten to know her personally but she still is always professional such as letting us sample the wine before pouring full glasses, etc. It is worth every penny in my opinion!!!!“

“We stopped at The Barrel House on our way thru Dubuque. Food was great, but our waiter Travis was outstanding! Very nice young man who did everything you'd want a great waiter to do! His mom raised him right!!!“

“Staying at hotel next door. Reading reviews was a little worried. Everything was wonderful from service to drinks! Servers very on top of things,.I had the drink special the cranberry margarita, it was delicious! I had the calzone was wonderful. My husband had a tavern style pizza and absolutely loved it. Will definitely be back!“
