Decided to try Doc's last Friday. I used to go here often when it was A League of Their Own and remembered great jazz and decent food.
We sat down in front of the stage and noticed what a cool and open set up they had. Great for groups and there were a few birthday parties going on.
The service was horrendous. We got a drink order in and had to wait about 20 minutes for it. Then remind the server, and order again. That pretty much sums up the experience for the entire evening, waiting and waiting for our server to come by, we were the only white people in the place so we were pretty hard to miss, yet our she kept forgetting us. The other guy who wandered around was perhaps the most clueless person I have encountered in ages. He didn't know what type of music was playing, didn't know what sweet tea vodka was, didn't know how to tie his shoes... Seriously...
That aside the food was AMAZING. We started with fried green tomatoes, they had cornmeal breading and were crunchy and delicious. They were so delicious in fact that we placed another order of them before our food arrived. For the entrees we ordered a fire baked potato which came with grilled prawns and creole sauce and the bayou chicken which was rolled in shrimp and wrapped in bacon and nested in a black buttered rum sauce. I couldn't believe how tasty and cheap the food was. (see pics). The band played decent typical jazz covers.
I highly recommend the food and as long as you can bear the service, you'll have a great night.
