We are locals to DFB. We have tried and tried again to let Muddy Waters redeem themselves but it just doesn’t happen. They blame the 1 hour wait on food to a small kitchen. They blame it on “season” when only half the tables are full. The reality is that this is the normal. I arrived at 5:55 p.m. and I left at 7:45 p.m. Most of that time was spent on waiting for my food without a warning that the kitchen was “backed up”.
I want this local neighborhood restaurant to work, but it doesn’t. While the staff is great, the wait isn’t. And they won’t do anything about it except complain to the “owner”. I did not even ask for a discount on my meal. All I did was ask that my concerns would be shared with the owner. The food is excellent and the manager will only ask you if the food was good to curb your complaint on the wait. But the wait is not okay. Something just isn’t right.
If you have 3 hours for a quick meal, this is the place for you. If not, think again.

We have been coming to Muddy Waters for years. It has always been great but our last 2 trips have been horrible. Tonight we waited 20 minutes for a table despite a lot of tables empty both inside and out. Once seated, we had a great waiter but waited an hour for our food. The food was great once it finally showed up but the wait was ridiculous. Asked for a manager after paying and she responded with indifference to our criticisms. We told her about how long we waited and her responses included “But was the food good?” and “It’s season.” I hope they make whatever changes they need to make.

What a treasure! The place is absolutely magnificent. Well decorated a lot of fun. A lot of conversation. The food was great. Everything came out at the right time at the right temperature and was delicious. And the Margaritas weren’t too bad either. We’ll definitely return.

Best service bar anywhere around. Great food and service and prices. Bartender named Kevin is the best making the best drinks, and all the servers and tenders are great. Great atmosphere going on in here. Dont hesitate to come here for the best drinks and food! Tell them Sammy Sosa sent you.

We missed the Wednesday happy hour, but the appetizers and drinks were good. Food came out quickly and hot. Server was friendly, knowledgeable, competent and attentive. We were asked questions about how and when we wanted the food and even the seating to ensure a great experience.

“I forgot to put your order in” Then “Oh well, accidents happen!”
First we waited 20 mins to be seated. Then Waited forever with the waiter coming out twice to say- just a few more minutes. Third time- “I’m gonna talk to the manager for you guys” over an hour later- after waiter is MIA and I asked for the manager. Who never came to our table. The Waiter reappears and says “you’re gonna hate me, but I totally forgot to put in your order!” We were getting up from table to leave and hostess cones over to say “oh well” accidents happen- what can you do?” we got up and left! Never again! Total waste of time and zero customer service!
