This place used to be amazing. My favorite memories of past years is going to this seafood place with my parents. It's not the same anymore.
We went for my wife's 30th birthday. My dad decided to join us. My wife ordered steak and shrimp, my dad ordered steak, I ordered a crab stuffed lobster. I have had the crab stuffed lobster many times before. I was craving it.
We got our appetizer's. Dad got snails, wife and I shared steamers. My dad was happy with the snails. But then again, how can you go wrong with snails doused in garlic and butter? The steamers were steamed little neck clams in a garlic broth. It was not long neck clams like the rest of the world calls steamers. I wasn't about to argue with the server that these are the wrong clams.
The food came and for the first time in my life I was asking the server to take back my meal before I even tried it. It looked dry and over cooked. I told the server I've had this dish many times before and this is not the way it's supposed to be. He told me this is what it's supposed to look like and begged me to try it. I took one bite and I couldn't even swallow it because it was so dry. Of course the server was gone by this point and didn't come back for 10 minutes to ask me how it was.
While I was waiting for the server to return, I told my family I was just going to get the steak. They just shook their head and told me not to. I took one bite of my dad's steak and spat it out. How do you screw up steak this bad? It tasted like beef jerky and butter. My dad and wife would have complained too, but it's my wife's birthday and I am already stealing her thunder. I swapped my meal out for a steamed lobster. How do you screw up a steamed 1 1/2 lobster? Fortunately, that came out fine.
So we left hungry and $300 poorer. I used to not mind paying the money they charged but now, it is not worth it. I am really hoping people stop coming here so they can just close down.
