| - We've driven past this place a thousand times, but I never paid any attention to it. It just didn't seem like a restaurant in my mind. I thought it was something similar to O'reilly auto parts. We finally decided to give it a try for a weekend lunch. It wasn't busy at all. The seats of our table had crumbs all over. The table also had some crumbs. Not the best first impression.
We were provided with 4 dinner rolls and butter, and also ordered the Top-Shelf Combo Appetizer ($11.99) to start. I would have been happy with just the dinner rolls, they were incredibly warm, soft, buttery, and delicious!! Wish we had more than 4 rolls. The appetizer was not as impressive. It came with 4 triangles of mildly spicy jack cheese wedges, 3 loaded potato skins, 3 chicken tenders, salsa, honey mustard, sour cream. I enjoyed the cheese wedges and chicken tenders, but the potato skins were overcooked - too dry and chewy. The salsa looked very unappealing, as if it had been sitting out for a long time and dried up, but it actually tasted much better than it appeared. The sour cream didn't add anything to the appetizer. I had signed up for the O'club, but the free appetizer deal didn't arrive at the same time as the welcome email. What a bummer that I couldn't use it while we were there because the free appetizer email didn't arrive until the following day.
I had the Low Country Shrimp for my main meal. It's listed under the $9.99 menu, and it's a great deal! The portion size was fantastic. The shrimp dish came with tomatoes, Andouille sausage, green onions, rice pilaf, and creole sauce. It resembled jambalaya and had a slight kick to it with all the black pepper. Loved the shrimp.
Service was decent, although I was clearly still eating when the waitress handed us the bill. This made me feel a bit rushed. The place was practically empty!
