From Interstate 80: Take Exit #246 (Hwy 1/Dodge St) and turn south toward Iowa City. Turn right at the first stop light, about 1/3 mile south of I-80. To the left this road is Scott Blvd, to the right it is Dubuque Rd (not to be confused with Dubuque St which has its own exit from I-80). You will be driving into a wooded area. Drive on Dubuque Rd for about 1/4 miles and take the first RIGHT that you come to. This is Oakes Dr. (You will pass Bristol Dr on the left before you get to Oakes. Do NOT turn there. It will take you back to Hwy 1/Dodge St). Take an immediate right turn onto Quincent St and follow Quincent to its end which is a T intersection with Bristol Dr. Turn LEFT onto Bristol Dr. The Bloomin' Iris is on the left almost at the end of the street. It is a white brick house, #2035. You may pull into the driveway, just don't block the sidewalk.
