I try to avoid leaving 1 star reviews due to poor service because I understand that a server could be having a bad night. However, I dined at this restaurant twice during my stay on the Delta King (once for dinner and once for breakfast) and both experiences were negative. I did try contacting the manager before leaving this review whom’s email address I got from reading review responses. After over a week with no response I proceeded leaving this review.

Visiting my cousin, who heard wonderful things about the Delta King. It was an interesting experience to dine on one of the last few steamboats that exists, but my dinner wasn’t that great. The fish was tiny and overcooked, and the coulet was different. I didn’t finish it and just blamed it on being full from a late lunch/snack. My cousin had the pork chop and said that it was delish. Service was okay.

I got breakfast here because I stayed at the Delta King (needs another review for that…). The included breakfast was yogurt, blueberries, watermelon and 2 slices of blueberry loaf. That was actually really yummy. I should’ve stopped there…. But I really wanted something hot too. So I ordered the breakfast burrito with salsa and guc. Well… the plate showed with no salsa and guc. The server tried and asked the kitchen what was going on. No salsa available and they whipped up some guc on the spot. The burrito and potatoes had no taste. The guc had flavor so when I ate it with the burrito, all i tasted was the guc. Disappointing… but my fault should’ve stopped at the continental plate. End on a positive note: the river view was really pretty and the old time-y decor was cute.

Good food! The mushroom dish from the appetizer menu is really good! Views are beautiful sitting outside. Free sea lion shows! Lol! Cocktail menu is amazing! Pretty presentation and delicious. Only thing that needs improvement is service efficiency. Took a long time for our cocktails to arrive. And then we had to flag our server down to ask for another drink. There was no check in to see how everything was or if we needed anything. They were not very busy either. But still like this place and recommend

“Valentine Day” I will start by saying thank you a million Ms. Krystal for everything you have done that day for me… Ms. Krystal is one of the managers if not the manager to this awesome place and she didn’t miss a beat with making sure my visit was to remember

SERVED RAW PORK. The food was incredibly disappointing. Was incredibly disappointed when upon arrival a raw pork chop an undercooked cold potatos and carrots were served. I had gotten a replacement option which was the case and pasta which still was disappointing because it truly wasn’t worth the price. The tales on the prawns were left on and the sausage use was cheap. So it was incredibly overpriced. While the staff was incredibly nice and helpful. The wait times were quite bad for an unpacked restaurant. And I don’t think our server understood how raw pork is extremely dangerous. But they were still incredibly nice. The view and the interior on the boat is absolutely amazing which didn’t make the experience awful and it was enjoyable to walk around. But for the price and extremely subpar food you can definitely get a better meal elsewhere.

High cost meal failed to meet overall expectations.

Delta King restaurant was supposed to be upscale. Took my wife there for dinner. We arrive 7pm they close at 9pm. We were told to sit wherever we wanted. Practically nobody there but they did have at least 6 waiters. We were given 2 glasses of water. Wait staff looked at us upon numerous occassions and after 30 minutes, we left. As we started away from the table one of the waiters smiled and said “Have a nice evening”. I would not recommend wasting time at that restaurant. It’s a nice old vessel but the restaurant is a ship wreck. We found much better restaurants along the walk. In retrospect I think we were lucky, we found the Fire House Restaurant and they were totally opposite. Fire House was welcoming, polite and a very pleasant change from the start of the evening. Next time we want a nice anniversary dinner in down town, it’ll be the Fire House Restaurant.

One of my favorite stops to bring out of town guests! 4 stars for the food, 4 stars for the service (above average but not like way above average). Atmosphere is a 5 though! And I give it an overall 5 stars for the novelty. Check it out!

This experience, the food and where we ended up sitting was the worst experience I’ve ever had on the Delta King. It has totally changed. We were looking to celebrate my brother’s birthday in fine dining that used to be at Delta King. Instead we were told to go sit upstairs and sit wherever we wanted to. Service was subpar because our waitress was all over the place having to work her a little tail off. I felt bad for her. The menu online is not the menu available when we went in. It was a shorter list of options, which they do not tell you on their website. So some of us ended up having to settle for food we did not necessarily come there to eat. I ended up ordering the fish and chips. When our food came the french fries were cold and overcooked, dried out in the middle. The fish was not flavorful at all. The target sauce helped. I don’t know what they use for the coleslaw, but none of us enjoyed it It had a very terrible taste to it. We might as well have eaten at a fast food place with overpriced food. I am not sure I’ll be back there anymore to eat. Although I like to give second chances to restaurants, it just seems this place has gone into a different direction.
