I almost never post reviews but I HAD to this time. Blue Iguana is bait-n-switching its customers. Their Wednesday Seafood Special online menu says you can get a combo of 1lb snow crab legs plus 1lb of peeled shrimp for $18.98. FALSE! They give you HALF of that 1/2 lb each of crab legs and shrimp. I asked the waiter why you only get half now. He said the online prices I saw were before the pandemic It gets worse. There is a Fair Lakes neighborhood publication that I just received a few days ago, which has a full page Blue Iguana ad saying the combo is only $16.98. Oh, and now they also slip in a 2% credit card processing fee.I live right around the corner and was looking forward to returning...

Not sure how this place is so highly rated (4.3 stars at the time of posting this review). The menu is EXPENSIVE for no reason nothing special. I have no idea why a buffalo chicken sandwich is $16 with french fries.The happy hour drinks were weak. When my friend ordered a tall boy PBR happy hour menu, the waiter brought him a regular sized can.The crab cake was okay, again super average, could have used more seasoning, nothing special. It was clear most of their food is frozen.

brunch was not what I expected, but the a la cart menu was very good! in a shopping center, blue iguana treated native to good food! they are famous for their botanas, so I had that. very, very rich and creamy, I had it over pouring instead of rice. still very good! the tres lecheskuchen listed on the menu was no longer a part of it, sad. the personal was attentive and very nice. next time I try to garnish and groom. recommend!

First, the loaded baked potato balls are amazing. They're like cheese hush puppies. The rest of the food here was pretty good too. I got the steak tacos and loaded fries. The tacos were really good and loaded with sauce and meat. They were even double wrapped so they could hold all the moisture. My fiancé got the gyro and that was good. The lamb had a lot of flavor.

Purely in terms of food I enjoyed it and there was a wide variety of cuisines to chose from. It was a little pricey for the quality and quantity. But, if considering it's also bar I would suggest it's food.

a $2 credit charged card fee without consulting me the fee. I would have paid money if I had known. looks like it could be a big cash, other than the “hidden” fees.
