My husband and I were so very disappointed after eating here. We only live five minutes away, and we really wanted to like it this time. The last time we ate here was years ago. Since it is so close to our home, and it always seems to have people there, we thought we'd try again to see if our experience was better.
We were seated in the main dining room. The restaurant was less than half full. We waited, and waited, and waited. Finally, someone came to our table and said that our server should be coming to our table soon, and he said that he would get our drink order while we were waiting for her. Shortly after, he brought our drinks.
We waited, and waited. When our server came to our table, she was friendly and took our food order. Our food came out in an appropriate amount of time. The server never came back to our table to make sure our food was okay or to ask if we needed anything else. Our drink glasses sat empty because our server never returned to our table for refills. The next time we saw her was when she brought the check. On the machine that you use to pay, the tip options were 30%, 25%, 20% and custom tip in that order.
The food. What can I say about the food? It was not good! We can deal with bad service, but spending fifty bucks on food that didn't taste good was so disappointing! My husband had the special of redfish with shrimp and vegetables. When the food came, we were surprised. The small piece of blackened redfish (which did not taste blackened) was on top of a very small amount of pasta which was bland. There were a few tiny pale shrimp, Chinese shrimp (?), on top of the fish with a small amount of cream sauce, but not enough sauce to get onto the pasta. There was one small piece of cauliflower, one small piece of broccoli, a couple of little carrot slices that was about .5 cup at most. The whole dish just lacked flavor. Just embarrassing really. My husband left hungry.
I had the fish tacos with Mexican corn. The corn was in a little bowl and had taco seasoning. It wasn't bad. The fish tacos, one of my favorite things to order at restaurants, were terrible. The blackened mahi mahi was dry, had no flavor and did not taste blackened. I had to put salt on my fish tacos! That's a first. The tacos only had fish and dry slaw. Oh, and a lime circle on each one. They were so dry! They did not taste good at all. Like my husband, I was incredibly disappointed.
I really wish we had thought to take pictures of our food so that others could see what we saw. We will never be back again, not even years from now. We are both done. The only reason we even tried again was because of the location.
