Now I know the help was new but BEING OUT OF CUSTARD in a place famous for custard , I don't think so..
First 4 or 5 times I went, there was a line at each register. Last week I went in and there was about 10 people standing in a sort of line back by the wall, I asked the first person if they were waiting on their order. Then I remembered, it's not like McDonalds, here they give you a number and you can sit down. The guy said, no were waiting to order. I said, way back here? what about that second register or when they open the third register, what you gonna do? He said, this is the way it was when I came in, next time you can do it the way you want to do it.

Then a new guy walked in from the other side and got in line for the second register. I said, there goes your plan. Then a guy comes in the door behind me and said, is anybody in line at that register, I said, no they're all waiting back here, then he shook his head and said, why don't all line up at the registers. Then the guy in front of me said again, you can do it your way next you come, but this is the way it was when we came in.

BTW, the 6 piece shrimp dinner is excellent, I've had it 5 of my 6 visits. Butterfly shrimp, great cole slaw, very good fries, and good cocktail sauce, and I think it's about $8.95.
