| - We chose this place because of the name. It's an attention grabber. It's a cool place, I'll give it that. The restaurant has an industrial feel, good bar, and they had awesome design work. Most entrées were about $20.
I ordered crab stuffed chicken, which seemed a little healthier than some of the fried foods on the menu and it ended up being two fried chicken breasts with a crab mix in between them. It looked good but was full of celery, which I'm seriously allergic to, so my mom ended up taking half my dinner off the plate to keep me from puffing up like a blowfish. This was partly my fault, because by now I really know better to ask about celery in things, but I had been expecting just... Lump crab with chicken. So basically I just ate a breaded piece of fried chicken with spinach.
My mom had a steak that was tough, and she didn't eat much, though my sister had a filet that she scarfed down before I could even try. Dad had fish and chips that were okay.
All the waiters seemed happy and outgoing, ours was around just enough to make sure we were never out of drinks but didn't hover, brought us our check quickly. He knew the menu and scored major points with me when he wiped the table after our fondu left the table messy. My mom mentioned her steak problem and the manager came and talked with us.
I left disappointed. I'll admit I had high expectations going in there, so maybe I just expected too much. If I really couldn't think of anywhere else to go, I'd give it another shot. The menu is a little out there (sweet potato ravioli and pan cooked apples and lots of horseradish things), I don't remember seeing a kid menu so if you have picky eaters this might be a pass for you.
