| - Service was actually great here; food, unimpressive. Although the hostess told us, on a rainy and slow night, that we would still need to wait 15 minutes for a 2-top, we sat at the bar and were granted a table, waited on by the friendly bartender, because she disagreed with the hostess. Not sure if that caused problems in their rotations but we thought it was nice. Bartender was an attentive and helpful server.
Food, on the other hand, wasn't impressive. As first timers, we opted for the stars of the menu and got the killer shrimp and lobster as well as lobster Mac. I added a side of garlic mash to go with the soupy bowl. Everything lacked salt, BIG TIME. The shrimp bowl was not "killer." It was definitely seasoned, but not correctly. There was recognizable dried thyme floating around and you tasted that but nothing else really. I was not impressed by what should have been the best thing on the menu and, for over $20, was really lacking shrimp quantity. The lobster Mac, again, little flavor but brimming with tail meat and gooey cheese; a plus, kind of. There was more lobster in that than there was in the lobster & killer shrimp bowl we ordered! The garlic mash was not garlicky at all. The potatoes were very light in texture, a bit over-processed, and hopefully not instant. Would NOT order again. The winner of the meal was the sweet potato pecan pie, hands down.
I would visit Killer Shrimp again, but not order what I did and probably not give their famous killer shrimp a second chance. Upsetting....
