We sat and waited while the waitresses were walking around and waited and another table came in after us and their order was taken. So finally, my head laying sideways in my hand and bored, we have a waitress. We did ask questions about the low country blue crab boil. You get 2 crabs (from the gulf of MX), 2 corn on the cobs, New England red potatoes and down home corn bread for $14.99!!!!!!!! Well, we decided to take a chance, but had them check about adding more crabs later ($6 each for one crab). Our meals came and they were the smallest crabs I ever seen. Hubby wonders if they were legal size which he thinks is 5". There was no spice on them either. Blah. the claws were okay, but the inside was mushy and my hubby wonders if they were properly cooked as they were opaque in color. So ate the corn, potatoes and the claws and gave a bad tip and left and I don't plan on going back. Makes me wonder how the other meals were.
We were here once before and thought prices were high. I had the breaded Haddock and was peeling most of the breading off. I would describe it as more of a beer batter, but not listed like that on the menu. Hubby had salmon and was not impressed.
I don't like to grumble about places, but this is ridiculous!
