D' Lua on the River: Reviews & Ratings
Our group really enjoyed the food here. A great waitress as well. I can only comment on the carnitas taco which was good but needed a bit more flavor, the chili relenno which was great and the quesso birrea taco which was good as well. We ended up eating here twice while in town for only 5 days. A nice location on the river topped it off.
Went this morning for breakfast. New spot for me and DELICIOUS! We got the chicken fajita omelette and the Birria toast. Their Margs are solid as well!
Becky and I went here for Sunday Brunch after church. As we expected, there was a bit of a wait, but that's small beans when you consider the beautiful River Views! They have breakfast all day, which is a Huge PLUS. We ordered one of their Special Pancake dishes and a Fusion Omlette. What a delite!!! Now for the disappointments. The water tasted a bit funny, like well water. Becky said she would order a Pop or Orange Juice next time. Additionally, the Omlette was a bit light on meat and heavy on the potatoes. Skewed Proportions! Overall, a wonderful place for breakfast... or lunch! We WILL Be BACK!!!
I love eating here. My favorite entree is the Cabo Burrito. It has lots of shrimp and is very fresh. They have their own D'Lua amber beer on tap and it is my go to. The River location is is the closest you can eat on the Mississippi. Enjoy!
Love this place! Some of the best Mexican food in the QCA. The views of the river are perfect!
The patio is the major selling point here. If you can try to get a table outside and eat by the river, its a great vibe with great views. The food was really good. The chicken quesadilla was flavorful with a crisp tortilla, and shrimp tostada was really fresh and light. I can always count on the pineapple jalapeño margarita. Its fresh, light, and made with real ingredients. The service is nice, if it gets busy you can expect to wait a bit for the server to pop over, but thats a given.
