 My wife and I had dinner at Dews on August 21 to celebrate out 26th wedding anniversary. We had been to Dews several times at their previous location, but this was the first time since they moved. We liked the new location better, as well as the decor, service, and food. Everything was better (and it was always very good before). Dews is one of Modesto's finest restaurants.

 I'm not a Modestan and keep searching for a "good" restaurant. I've been assured that Dewz is it. Well, I tried their lunch, a turkey sandwich - salty, soft mystery meat. Okay, so I tried the apple crisp. Mushy apples, mushy topping. If you are depending on a quality if not gourmet reputation, why would you serve packaged lunch meat? I've not dared to try one of their expensive dinners. I guess my expectatons are different than the locals'.

 Three friends and I showed up for some drinks and dinner. The restaurant said they had no tables available, so we ate appetizers and had drinks in the "lobby/bar". Stayed for over an hour- and approximately 10 table were still open in the dining area by the time we left. What a joke!

 Terribly inattentive service for our lunch party of 6 at 11:55AM on Saturday with just 3 other tables occupied. Food ranged from very good (seafood pasta) to good(cobb salad) to fair(blackened snapper sandwich, with 6 bones in it)
$10.25/glass for Turkey Flat Rose? Retail $12 wine. Obscene markup on the only rose offered by the glass. This is my 5th time here and service has never been consistently good but today was flat poor. I am done with this place. Too many better choices (Bachus,Claytons, Tressetti's) etc

 We recently booked Dewz for a surprise dinner party for 23 persons, we had eight choices from the menu for this large group, food was excellent and the service even better! We had a lead wait person who was an absolute professional and other wait staff were prompt and extremely courteous. Heartily recommended for an excellent dining experience!

 I took my boyfriend to Dewz yesterday and we had a terrible experience. We had to wait 15 mins for a table to be cleaned that was empty when we walked in. After being seated it was 10 minutes before the waitress asked us what we would like to drink. I ordered wine that came within minutes but my guest ordered wine that they could not find. They spent 30-40 mins looking for this wine. When they finally found it the bartender brought it over and it was not the right year. She got an attitude because we did not want the wine since it was not the correct year. She stalked off and we never heard from her again.
Two years ago this restaurant refused to allow me to make a reservation for myself since I wanted a table for one on New Years Eve.

 Wow!!! My wife and I just cannot stop talking about this incredible experience. Dews ambience, tasty food, spectacular service are just a few way to describe such a place. If you are looking for a quite, romantic, get away this is the place for you. Do not take our word for it try Dewz for yourself, you will not regret it.

 My husband and I have had dinner twice at Dewz, and both experiences were pretty great. The first time there was a delay getting our entrees out, so they comped us each a glass of the very nice wine we were drinking. The last visit (2 days ago), we were in a draft from the A/C and they moved us and turned it down. My husbands fish had the wrong sauce on it, so they told him to enjoy that dish while the chef fixed him a new entree. We ordered a glass of wine and the waitress poured us a little more than half a glass to empty the bottle, stating that she'd be right back to "top it off." She returned to let us know that was the last bottle of that particular wine, then comped us a glass of an even finer wine. My water glass was never more than half empty before someone was there to refill it, the food was awesome, and the waitress knowledgable and friendly. We can't recommend it enough!!
