| - Christmas Day. Yep. Not many places open, but this one sure is, and they make you feel like it's okay that they're all working and you're not.
From beginning to end, our experience was very good. Our Server could not have done a better job, nor have been more delightful.
We started with the Shrimp Kisses, unsweetened iced tea and their delicious sourdough bread. The Shrimp Kisses were so well executed, which is hard to do. Bacon-wrapped seafood in our experience is often not done right. This was very well done. Bacon was well cooked, but the shrimp was not over-cooked. Perfect! Loved the corn relish under and the fried onions over. Great appetizer and perfect for sharing!
Both of us (surprisingly) ordered the same entree: Shrimp Trilogy Buttermilk Fried, Stuffed, Scampi, Butternut Squash Orzo 27.95. This also comes with: Red Pepper White
Cheddar Mash. I opted to substitute grilled asparagus for the butternut squash orzo, as I didn't see the need for two starches. Husband was happy with as-is.
Our meals were very enjoyable! Cheesy Mash needed a slight dash of salt....I requested cocktail and tartar sauces and were brought both quickly, which added to the enjoyment of the meal. Very rich! I was so glad to have the asparagus to off-set the richness a bit. The fried shrimp was slightly over-fried and crunchy but dunked in cocktail sauce was still tasty.
Seriously full, I could only do coffee for dessert, but Husband managed some super moist carrot cake. Half of which we brought home.
For those that poo-poo chain restaurants, there is something to be said about one that is working this hard to deliver quality and service that's not only excellent, but done on Christmas Day!
