Royal Street (Daq Shack) - Bar Rescue Update

In this week's episode of Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer and crew are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to rescue Daq Shack.  The bar is a daquiri bar that doesn't offer many other drinks or cocktails.  The bar is pretty clean, but the owners do not seem to know how to run a bar.  They also are missing the mark with their New Orleans theme.  Jon will need to redesign their concept in hopes the bar succeeds.

During the Bar Rescue makeover, Jon Taffer decided to change the name of Daq Shack to Royal Street and the bar has kept the name. Let's take a look at some information, reviews, and updates for Royal Street since Bar Rescue came and made all of the changes to the bar (All reviews are post-Bar Rescue):

Positive Reviews:

• "Royal Street MKE formally Daq Shack MKE underwent a beautiful transformation inside but the heart, quality of food and service are the same...wonderful! It's always like visiting family here, the main bartender always remembers us even though we only come a couple times a year when in the area. Food is always fresh, hot and delicious. Absolutely go if you're in Milwaukee try all the flavors they provide with the daiquiris."
• "Great customer service. I loved my visit to this local hidden gem! I’m look forward to my next visit. Please try the Pickle Fries"
• "We each got a po boy to go- shrimp and roast beef - so good! Shrimp was wonderful but the roast beef was the star. Super juicy with onions and a horseradish sauce that really put it over the top. Of course we got a large daiquiri to go, with blue raz and who dat (GOAT), other than the brain freeze it was perfect. The service was great everyone inside was friendly (even remembered us from months ago!) can’t wait to go back and sit at the bar with a couple daqs and maybe a hookah too!"
• "10/10 would recommend! Came to celebrate my pre- birthday the food, the music, the prices, the esthetics was everything. But the best part was the customer service. S/O to "Lee" who was our server, absolutely stunning."
