DILLY’S is a must stop for lunch in Iowa colony. My favorite is the grilled snapper with broccoli and dirty rice, best snapper in Brazoria. Of course, you can substitute the fried rice which is delicious, but more calories

I’m honestly shocked their reviews aren’t higher just goes to show that ratings don’t always reflect the experience. My husband and I came here for lunch and despite the busy lunchtime traffic, the two ladies working the entire floor were absolutely on point. They managed the whole room smoothly, made sure drinks stayed full, checked in regularly without being overbearing and even timed bringing the check perfectly so we weren’t waiting around.
Their attention to detail really impressed me. I even appreciated how my cucumbers were cut (see photo!). My husband really enjoyed his redfish plate too. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, and the overall experience was great. We’ll definitely be back.

Great food. The atmosphere feels like home. I love the owner and how they were so friendly. Our food came out fast. They always running special for lunch. I had Snapper Ponchatrain and gumbo. I love the Cajun seafood with a Filipino twist. Love it

We’ve been regulars at Dilly’s for quite some time and usually enjoy coming here for dinner. Unfortunately, our experience tonight was not the best.
We understand Fridays can get busy. We placed our order at 6:10 PM. One plate arrived at 6:55 PM — the chicken Alfredo my husband ordered — and it actually had great flavor. The server mentioned they were still working on my dish, and about 10 minutes later my plate (beef lo mein) came out.
As soon as I took my first bite, I noticed the noodles were extremely overcooked — completely inedible. I let the server know; she apologized and offered a 10% discount. The plate was still full, but we’re not the type to send food back, so we accepted the discount, paid, and left.
We’ve always enjoyed this place, which is why this was disappointing. Hopefully this was just an off night, but unfortunately it left a bad impression.

i loved being here!!! i saw a review commenting on a greasy aspect of the fish but i couldn’t disagree more! the fish i had was fried hard while also having a fluffy light and crisp batter, not overly greasy at all! the design is nice and comforting and i loved the 2010 throwbacks playing on the radio! i can’t wait to go back and try more of their dishes:)

Update: Dining experience. Everyone is nice! Now that I got that out of the way. Service is slow, food isn’t the appropriate temperature , fish was overcooked, and it’s a clear sanitation violation going on in the kitchen. The server never came to check on us at all. We sat there for at least 25 minutes watching her run back and forth. Needless to say, for $50, it should be damn worth it. We won’t be back at all. I really had high hopes, but it’s a no for us. My son and I were sitting there thinking it’s been a very long time since we’ve experienced bad food. This is disheartening. Sorry Dilly’s.

As many times as I’ve passed by here, I had no idea it was an actual restaurant. They have a full service menu and adult beverages. This is a very nice family restaurant. The catfish was so good!!!! We had leftover sides, so we only needed meat. When I go back I will update this review. I will be back!

My husband and I ate dinner here last night and we ordered the whole fish. We ordered the red snapper grilled. It was deliciously cooked perfect. There was a mix up at first with our order, but they immediately fixed it. It takes about 30 minutes to prepare, but it is worth the wait.
I’m giving them a 5 because they are a family owned business. Honest people. Good service. Clean restaurant. The son waited on us after the mix up and the owner, his father cooked our food.

This is a great place. This is my 3rd time eating here, the first two times were pick up orders. Every meal has been really good. This time I ordered the special, grilled redfish over rice with crawfish etoufee and my coworker had the fried shrimp. It was delicious and our waitress was great!

The fish is my mother’s favorite . She’s been at my home recovering for the past few weeks, and she’s ordered this fish for lunch at least 7 times on the past 18 days. It’s fresh, crunchy, and hot when we get it. Hush puppies are good. Fries are lightly salted. I season mine to my liking. Overall, the food here is delicious . I don’t have a photo, but the chicken Philly cheese steak sandwich is crazy good. It is filled with seasoned grilled chicken, 2 cheeses, and grilled onions.
The grilled shrimp salad, grilled chicken salad, and grilled salmon salad are all amazingly delicious as well. I normally use Balsamic Vinegarette on any of these, but there are other options. Be sure to request no bacon bits because it is on every salad
