We visited RJ Gators last weekend for the first time. We had previously seen a crowd there thinking it must be good, not realizing the crowd was for the live entertainment not the food nor service. We opted for indoor seating and it took an extended period of time for waitress to come initially. We ordered drinks and when they finally made it to the table, we immediately ordered our food. It was a straightforward order with no questions hoping to help waitress out. The whole experience was SLOW! Considering there were hardly any customers on the inside it was hard to understand the slowness. The waitress was always out of sight, so when we were ready for the check, we slid our plates to the edge of the table hoping she would get the hint! We had to go up to the hostess desk for the check and the waitress had the nerve to ask "No Tip"?? Nope not for that slow of service! The food was hot but not good enough for $68. There were 2 alcoholic beverages in that price and one of those had to be sent back!
I even tried to send an email to let management know (again to help). The email was blocked, so I called with no answer and no voicemail. The google review was successful! One and DONE for sure!
