Myself, and 3 kids (16,15,&12) came for dinner tonight. After reading the reviews I hoped the bad ones were just what I thought to be and gave it a chance. And boy was I right!! Whoever is leaving bad reviews 1. Probably didn’t like the price. 2. Is so picky they should stay home. 3. Probably should just stay home anyway. We were greeted and sat within seconds of walking through the door with pleasant hostesses. Chatted with us and were super friendly. Our server was super nice but very quiet spoken so was a little hard to hear him sometimes but overall he was awesome. The mermaid was there and she gave the kids bead necklaces (Mardi gras style) and they loved it! She was swimming around blowing bubbles and the kids of all ages loved her. The pirate came around multiple times telling jokes and checking on people. Now the main thing we came for. The food. There is three tables the main being meats,hot veggies, and condiments. A nicely stocked salad bar with soups and a beautiful prime rib. Then a dessert table. There was plenty of non seafood options and surprised there was buffalo wings which my youngest loved! He gave them 9/10 on wings alone. The mini crab cakes were delicious. The ribs were a little too fatty but kids said they were good otherwise and we didn’t come for the ribs. The crab legs…were amazing, flavorful, and just perfectly cooked and didn’t stop coming the whole time. My son said he didn’t know if the crab legs were the best he ever had or if it was the hot butter that took it over the top. I warned the kids before we sat down to only get what they would eat and do it in small portions they can always go back. Which helps keep the dishes perfect. Crab legs go cold and they are harder to open. So one or two a time instead of heaping your plate is key to enjoying the food and not wasting what you can’t finish. The fried shrimp were delicious as well. I saw a review that complained about the bread food being soggy. Well yeah it happens. It’s hard to keep breaded fried food crisp In a chaffing pan. The ones toward the end/bottom will have some softness to it but they were still delicious and when a fresh batch came around, lawd it was good. Well all had an amazing dinner tonight and still full from it even hours later. My one and only complaint is the steamed shrimp and cocktail shrimp weren’t deveined. I don’t mind taking the shell off but the vein does get into the mind and makes it hard to enjoy. I tried one and had to pass and was really looking forward to some shrimp tonight. But everything else was hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The crab legs were the main goal and did not disappoint at all. I anticipated the cost including drinks, and was about spot on when I got the bill. I did think we could get a military discount but not a huge deal if we didn’t. Discounts are perks not mandatory or expected. Food 9/10. Service 9/10. Environment 10/10. Clean, fun, worth the price for sure. We were told before we started eating what the price would be and enjoyed every minute of it. Also loved the fact the kids were so busy eating and hands were messy no one was on their phones. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience tonight!Vegetarian options: Green beans, potatoes, corn, salad bar and more.
