You know when you start saying a word too many times and it starts sounding weird? Well in this review, it's going to be "salt". If I were to describe the meal in one word... SALTY! I ordered the 4 course meal for $21.99 (offered Monday-Thursday) and had to take home leftovers because it was too much for me to handle in the restaurant.
First, the biscuits. Everyone raves about them and how great they are, so I had some pretty high expectations! They were soft, hot, and salty (but bearable.) Not bad when chased down with a class of water.
Next, the appetizer - Boston Clam Chowder. I'd say the cup size is probably your best bet because the salt threw off my appetite, and I came in feeling hungry. Maybe even skip out on it. This was probably the worst, even our server apologetically agreed as he had heard the same complaint from other customers.
Caesar salad was probably the light of the meal. It was the only point where I thought I wasn't being attacked by a sodium bomb.
Coconut jumbo shrimp was pretty good, it came with a side of fries. A bit too much to stomach after the soup though. Crunchy and deep fried, but was offset by the pleasantly sweet coconut dip. Recommended.
Dessert was a brownie with a scoop of ice cream.
Our server was great! Very friendly and made sure to check if our table was doing alright (but not pestering us as I've experienced at other restaurants.) I'm giving this two stars because the customer service was great and the atmosphere was generally pleasant.
