This will be an unusual review. I haven't written one like it. This has to do with the all you can eat fish places that we go to with regularity - Mentor Family Restaurant, Lakeshore Eatery, Mama Roberto's and Manhattan Deli.
The fish tastes great at all of these places and the price is not unreasonable. All give a good portion on the first plate. It's thereafter that we have an issue. One piece every 20 minutes - some a little better, some a little worse. Those that ask how many you want, take longer.
The management and owners need to take some things into consideration. For our family, one person gets AYCE and the rest of us order from the menu. That means 1-4 profit makers in our party of up to five. We also come in at other times and spend money.
The slow down only serves to make our fish eater stubborn and he isn't afraid to tell the wait staff what he wants, especially when he isn't getting it. I'm sure the wait staff hate AYCE fish. Tonight we had a different tactic to the slow down. They ran out of fish. I have very rarely been at a place that runs out of anything.
I am sure we are not the only ones disappointed in this situation. Again, I ask that management take some time to rethink how we can make everyone happy.
Copying this to the other restaurants listed. Don't think I am singling out any one place.
Now I am going in search of other places that do AYCE and hoping for the best.
