The staff is always friendly and attentive.The restaurant located on the river is cozy with a festive atmosphere. If you can, request a table on the second story for a breathtaking view of the Mississippi.“

“I’ve doordashed their food and have also eaten in their restaurant and both times the food has been amazing. I’m not usually much of a BBQ person, it was actually my partner that got me to go try them, but omg it was worth it. Everything I eat is amazing. They have good chicken sandwiches and don’t even get me started on the ribs. I usually never eat ribs, but I could seriously eat a whole rack of these. Then the sides are amazing. The Mac n Cheese is amazing, the coleslaw is amazing, the baked beans are amazing, the garlic bread and the fries are also amazing. And my partner was very very pleased he was able to find a place that serves boiled peanuts, he gave those a 10/10 himself. I would post pictures but sadly I’m posting this after we devoured everything. If you’re in the Cape area and looking for some good BBQ, I would definitely stop here, you genuinely won’t regret it. And this is coming from a picky eater. Their whole experience is just amazing.“

“I was in Cape for a day and decided to stop on my way out of town. It was a Saturday about noon and they were completely full and only had one or two people waiting tables and bussing, so service was kind of slow, but I didn't really mind. Once they took my order the food came out really quick. The ribbon fries were awesome and I got the "BLOWOUT Burger" (had about 6 different kinds of cheese on it) which was also really good and juicy. Worth the wait and the staff are really friendly! I'll be back!“

She was very informative and helpful with the drink and food menus. The portions are heartier then you would think. Every bit of the food was amazing. I was not disappointed, I hope you won't be.

“People talk about bandando but Dexter has them beat without question. I tried the brisket from Band and Dexter and hands down Dexter was the best. The brisket was tender and cooked to perfection plus the fried corn on the cob (2) was amazing. I'll be going back there and the sign Band has on the board best in town is a hard no Dexter is the best I can't say it any LOUDER please go and try it for yourself especially the brisket finger licking good.“
