2.5 Star for lunch Experience which offers Chicken/Fish Teriyaki with a side of seafood for $10.95
We were here on Saturday around 2:00 pm for a late lunch. The restaurant was not too busy and we were seated promptly and was given a cup of room temperature water in plastic cup. (suggestion: maybe some iced water would be better?)
Chicken Teriyaki with Captain Boil Sauce Medium Spicy
- The chicken was tender and flavourful
- The hot plate was sizzling hot when served
Fish Teriyaki with Lemon Garlic Sauce Fire Spicy
- The hot plate was warm with no sizzle at all!
- The fish was mushy and more batter than fish
- The sauce was lurk warm and the seafood was not really cooked through, especially for the clams and mussels which has this mushy texture
The 2 craw fish on each of the order were probably the worse. The tail meat was tasteless and mushy. We ended up just have one bite and left the rest untouched.
Maybe the side seafood would have tasted better if it was served/prepared in one of the bags instead of just putting them on the hot plate and served with sauce on top? At least they would be hot instead of warm?
I would not recommend the hot plate special! Serving those the way it was really not really represent the real seafood boil experience! Ordering something from the actual menu probably would be the best bet.
My first ever Captain Boil's experience was a disappointment. Maybe I should not have order those specials..
