Food was fair to good. Server was excellent. Owner was a jerk.. If you don't have the temperament to take criticism, you probably shouldn't run a restaurant. Won't eat there again. Wouldn't recommend

I was dropping my niece off in Montgomery and decided to stop by here on my way back to my home area. I’m so glad I did. These people are amazing and the crawfish was a 10/10! I will make a special trip to this place just because! They were having a staff meeting but still catered to my needs. ❤️

Epicures meat and 3 is phenomenal, for $15 on most meals you get an amazing entree with in house prepared sides and some great music to go along with your meal. Today I had the hamburger steak and requested cheese because if you haven’t tried it I’m telling you, you must! It’s great it makes an awesome dish even better! Why whole meal was a 10/10 including the dessert which was zeppole with caramel sauce and it was so good, an awesome way to end a delicious meal, and my whole meal for 2 for lunch with soft drinks was $30.64 I can’t brag enough about this place!

We recently visited what used to be called The Fantail but is now Epicure & Jack's Tavern. The decorations are still those of a kitchy seafood restaurant, though seafood is now just a part of their menu. Previously an all you can eat buffet, they are now an ala carte sit down restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. It was a Monday night so they weren't busy but a large boisterous party who were already a few drinks ahead were commanding a lot of attention. The menu had a variety of offerings from seafood to pasta to steaks. If you are looking for an inexpensive option, you'll have to stick to the appetizers as most entrees start at $25. The steaks go for between $30 and $80, though the portion would suggest it is for two. (the description describes that it is intended for two). Don't expect that your entree will be accompanied with a salad or sides, as each is priced separately. You do receive some tasty hush puppies but found they could have been warmer. We each ordered an entree, seafood specifically, as that was why we came, and though we are not at the coast, we are close enough that at these prices you might expect the seafood to be more fresh. It is possible that we we a day too soon as they were out of a few items on their menu. I got the low country boil and though it was as described as for two, the offerings suggested otherwise. I was surprised that I received what was probably a pound of shrimp, which I expected, but was told I was given extra because they were out of clams. A dozen claws was supposed to come with it. Later I was told there were clams so they brought me some. I received only two pieces of corn, sausage, and two halves of a small red potato to accompany the highly seasoned shrimp. The shrimp was cooked well, though the clams were a bit over cooked and tough. We found the entire night okay but not exceptional and though it won't be on the regular rotation, we may visit again. Our bill came to just under $100 for the three of us, an expensive night for a less than memorable meal. The others described their dinner as good but not quite equal to the price.

Stopped here on the recommendation from my husband's co-worker. It was delicious! I had the fried green tomato BLT and onion rings. Amazing! Husband had the beef tips and said that they were really good. Service was great and atmosphere was cool.

We had fond memories of the old Fantail buffet... until we had dinner last night!The atmosphere is casual yet more refined.Our server was friendly and attentive but not intrusive. I can't rember her name but she was great!The food! The Seafood Platter was beyond excellent. Everything was fried perfectly. You honestly could feed 2 people...and I can really eat when the food is good.

The service was amazing! But.... The food, not so much. Just on my plate, the mashed potatoes were mostly hard, the sliced meat was extremely over salted, and I was not aware the asparagus was being cooked in peanut oil. I'm lucky I wasn't allergic because nobody told me and it tasted like peanut with a little bit of asparagus. Now my partner got fried oysters, which were soggy, and the artichoke dip seemed watered down with too much spinach. Now, I'm not saying there food is bad every time, but as first time experience, I was very disappointed especially since we paid over $100.

I can say that your staff rocked it. I hadn’t been to Fantail since it was a buffet until this weekend and I ate there Friday and Saturday. The best way I can describe it is that it isn’t just eating dinner but it’s an experience from the food to the ambiance to the staff. Impeccable! ❤️. This will be my hang out on the regular! ~Tammy Giordano
