drinks was good but service was really bad. Need to be looking for the waiter to get another drink to. Order something else because he dropped a drink and disappear. Never came back to check. Plus when he brought us an spoon it was dirty. I ordered my Stake medium and it came rare. Plus half of the stake was pure fat.

Food is great, prices too but service....you got a wait 20 min to get your drink and then no one comes to check in you between time, everything takes forever.

I almost always come during lunch but today I came in on a weekend Sunday lunch menu was not available and I typically get the shrimp basket and the difference in price is $11 between lunch and dinner when I receive my dinner at 2 PM. They look exactly the same And I asked the manager. I said this looks exactly like my lunch portion. He said oh the differences eight shrimp 12 shrimp shrimp shrimp but it was pretty pathetic and I did not need the manager disclosing to me that his wife are trying to have a baby.

Update: on a totally different occasion, went back for lunch, our server gave us our soup with the spoons inside the bowl ( while just casually saying that the spoons had fallen inside). I was fuming but we were pressed for time. We fished our spoons out and then had to ask for napkins to wipe the spoons off. In hindsight, we should have left.

On the first occasion,
It was great. Can't believe I've been sleeping on this place for lunch. And this drink, the Paloma, was excellent.

Just leaving this establishment, we sat for 15 minutes and we never had anyone offer service. The kind hostess seated us promptly and there was no further service. The manager walked by our table three times and never looked our way. A couple of servers walked by also and didn’t take any orders. 10/5/24 from approximately 5:40-5:55pm. We left.

I prefer the Flowood location but stopped here for convenience. The oysters were great! The green tomatoes and crab cakes were delicious. The service was poor. I ordered my drink upon arrival. My server brought the wrong drink after my food was served upon me waiting for the check. My server was clearly preoccupied. The hostess dropped my menu on the floor, picked it up, and placed it on the table without cleaning it. I tip for great service bc I appreciate it. This was one of few times that I left a 10% tip and a note vs 40%tip. I know good help is hard to find these days but don't let bad employees ruin your brand.
