This is my first review but I think people should know the truth about this place. Over the years I've heard a lot of positive reviews about this joint so finally decided to give it a shot. Walked inside and sat at the bar while waiting for a table. So far everything appeared to look good and didn't wait long to be seated. After being seated in a booth that looked like it had been there since the 70's, I had the opportunity to view my surroundings. Fish tanks everywhere which looked nice but nothing else. I agree with the other posts, it seemed like I was eating at Grandma's house. The decor was very outdated from the lighting to the glasses. This place definitely needs a facelift.
Then there is the food. I ordered Filet with Crab legs. The bread they started us off with was good. Then I tried the clam chowder. It tasted like it was made last year. The kind I buy in a can is gourmet compared to that gruel. Then I finally got my meal. The steak was cooked perfect but was tasteless. I don't think they know it is good to use herbs and spices on meat. The crab legs were good, no complaints on those. The mash potatos were tasty as well but looked like they were scooped from a buffet tray. The steamed veggies were okay. Overall, the appearance of the food sucked. Everything just looked like it was thrown on a plate and did not have an appetizing look. The food was room temperature as well. Then it was time for dessert. Key Lime pie was the choice. I was really looking forward to this. First thought was "what the heck is this green junk on my dang pie?" It looked like slime. First bite I almost vomitted. My pie was room temperature! It was pretty tart but who eats warm key lime! That was bad.
Overall, I am not very hard to please. I thought that this was one of my worst dining experiences and will never return. Food is overpriced, tasteless, atmosphere outdated, and service was average. I will stick to PappaDeaux for my seafood.
Pros: Fairly fast seating and nice fishtanks
Cons: food and atmosphere. Lets not mention being overpriced
