| - Was here for a friend's birthday on a Saturday night. She had a reservation but we were not allowed to be seated until at least half of the party was physically present....but they weren't even busy? 80% of the restaurant was empty. Mind you, this reservation was at 6pm, but we were not seated until about 7. The time in between was spent sitting at the bar, where were not ONCE offered a drink but were provided menus. Uh, gee thanks?
Finally seated..finally got drinks. The food was just ok. Nothing to rave about. The best thing to note was the gator burgers. Even that was just ok, but it was the best out of everything I had. I ordered the Louisiana Blackened Redfish- sounds awesome on the menu, but I found it to be subpar. Fish was overcooked (just a little) and the rice/sauce combo was much spicier than expected. Not sure if it had much flavor outside of spice and salt. The little cornbread muffin was actually pretty relish- very moist. I also had a side of coleslaw, which was drowned in dressing/mayo, and the cabbage seemed to be chopped, not shredded. Eh.
If you don't like fried food, don't go here because everything is fried (with the exception of the blackened fish I ordered). Fried catfish, tomatoes, pork chops, you name it- they fry it. And that's why it tastes good, people.
The only GOOD beer they had to offer was dortmunder. It was only saving grace in a slew of bad beer selections.
Service was SLOW AS MOLASSES. Don't get me wrong, they were nice, but seriously on their own time. It took us a total of 2+ hours to have appetizers and entrees served.
Bottom line: NOT recommended. I think mostly because of the way service is, they do not deserve business. Sorry for the tough lovin.
