My boyfriend decided to surprise me with dinner at Eddie's on my birthday because of great reviews he has heard from locals. As soon as the menu came out, I was a bit skeptical, but willing to try new things. The shrimp & dough ball appetizer was good; however the lobster bisque (one of my favorite soups ever) smelled soooo fishy you knew it wasn't fresh. & for $10 a bowl, it better be freshly caught for what seems like 4oz!
My boyfriend got Eddie's famous dish: a steak cooked in mash potatoes & then with more mashed potatoes on top. I tried it. The steak was over cooked & I couldn't even taste it with all the masked potatoes smothering everything. He loved it.
I got the East meets west. The Seared ahi tuna was over cooked as well, & as for the other fish... Let's just say.... I didn't take more than one bite.
The dessert menu came out, & I chose not to ensure any more of dinner.
The bill came at a hefty $100+ without tip.
The service was good, atmosphere was nice, & we were able to sit outside which was wonderful.
So, I may have given this review more than one star had we not both gotten food poisoning. I ended my birthday with both of us hugging the toilet. Yeah.... 1 star.
