Wicked Dame — Restaurant in Dubuque

My sister, my brother in law and I come this bar a couple times a month. This past weekend, we came here after attending a charity event and the owner was bartending and got us our drinks. My sister provided her credit card to pay. The owner, upon taking my sister's credit card, then told my sister that she had a beautiful and unique name to which my sister smiled and thanked her. The owner then proceeded to charge the credit card. Upon returning my sister's credit card, she proceeded to inform her, in a really loud voice, that the reason her name stuck out was because "apparently" my sister had been disputing her credit charges each time she came to that bar. The bar went silent as it is a small place. My sister was flabbergasted. She is a director of a hospital and would never try taking advantage of anyone. In an effort to show it was not her, my sister pulled up her bank account to show she had not disputed anything. The owner then went to the back to verify paperwork. When she came back out, all she did was say she had gotten confused. No apology. Nothing. We left without drinking our drinks and won't ever...

I love this place, it's clean, cute, small and quaint without feeling stuffy, provides an intimate feel even when full of people. There is live music sometimes and there's also a small area for outdoor seating. The staff is very kind and can make a good drink. There's a blonde woman who works there, so extremely nice and sweet and so accommodating. They don't have it on their list of cocktails but I always try to order my favorite martini wherever I go. It's hard to get a good one around here and there isn't a bar dedicated to martinis lol but this woman makes the best sour apple martini in town, hands down! I always look for her when I'm there or hope she will be there. Always a good choice. Definitely...

Whilst scrolling google search looking to try a new winery with my wife, I came across The Wicked Dame. The setting was beautiful no doubt but obviously there were stares and not the subtle type. Nevertheless the service response was above average but there was some miscommunication. Trying to get to the point, my wife decides what we will taste while we’re there. I asked about the sparkling wines, the server brought out a aromatic and delicious moscato(2 glasses)we agreed that it was great tasting selection. My wife decided we drink a bottle of the selection we tasted, server bought out one glass no bottle. Maybe we’ll try another...
