| - There's really nothing inherently wrong about chain restaurants. I don't like when people automatically write off a place just because it has other locations...
I printed off a coupon and got a free appetizer worth about $10! That's already a plus of a chain restaurant because the websites are great, organized and offer coupons. Anyways, I thought the amount of food and the taste of food were great! I took my family here this past weekend and everyone came back full and satisfied! We ordered 2 steampots, the crab nachos and the jumbo coconut shrimp. Surprisingly, it was enough for all of us (granted, my sis doesn't really eat seafood so she was happy with her hushpuppies and fries...). I really recommend the KJ steampot because it came with loads of goodness: snow crab, scallops on a stick, clams, 3 Maine lobster claws, an ear of corn and potatoes. The garlicky sauce was yummers! Although I did see in one of the pictures posted here that it should have come with some tubs of clarified butter. We did not get those. Oh, well.
The crab kit that everyone got was super cute and the buckets at every table were useful. I liked the setup and the speed of the food coming was fast as well. Our waiter was friendly enough but kind of slow at responding to things...e.g. I asked him for a knife since it didn't come with that as part of the table setting. He just stared at me for a few seconds and left. After 15 minutes, he came back with a huge bucket of knives. Lol, one would have been enough but at least I got my knife!
The atmosphere was lively; it certainly a popular restaurant in Station Square. It smelled fishy and the furniture looked slightly damp. I just wish they provide free cheddar biscuits or something...
