Walked in while no one at the host stand, while 2 employees were behind the bar not doing anything, no hello, good evening or someone will be right with you. Finally the guy host walked up, ask them to make sure that he checked me in because I'm an open table customer and I want to make sure that I got credit for my visit. He said the system had been down for 3 days and I told him to make sure that he checked me in whenever the system came back up. The restaurant steamed extremely slow, has a very musty and not pleasant smell. There are many prices are astronomically high and continue to get higher but the quality is going down.. This restaurant has gone downhill and is extremely dysfunctional, seems like the staff doesn't know what they're doing or what to do. Manager never stops by to ask our experience is going or even a hello. Anytime we order soups, doesn't matter if it's a clam chowder or the lobster bisque It's always barely warm and never hot when it always should be. We really wish we can get good service want to walk in to be acknowledged as a customer and consumer and appreciated which we don't feel that we get at this location. They really need to train their employees customer service etiquette because they have none.. I give them a 3 out of 10 stars..

Waited three hours for food and it was my boyfriends birthday and got the endless shrimp and couldn’t even get anymore shrimp. The server was pretty good except food took long.

Everytime we visit this location there is No Host or anyone to greet us and have to wait at least 5 minutes before the host shows up unfriendly and rude. Even though the bar is straight ahead when you walk in the bartender never greets us nor does he or she ever say someone will be right with you They just completely ignore you. Extremely poor service.. I never smile nor are they friendly nor do we feel welcomed. We had clam chowder soup and it was barely warm. The biscuits should not taste fresh and barely warm. We would never recommend this location to anyone because of the overall poor service.

Rude Hostess with Zero personality. Service at table was poor. One of the managers was in the bar across the way from the host stand even though we stood there for over 7 minutes waiting for the host, and the managers was looking straight at us and didn't even say hello greet us or say the host would be right with us. The staff is quite rude, unprofessional and they just don't care. Server took a long time to come to our table even though she walked by our table several times before she decided to stop.. She never came back to check on us and we had to get her attention and order to get anything we needed. Would definitely not recommend this location anyways. There was many dirty tables and food all over the carpet. We got sweet tea when we ask for unsweet tea and our server never stop by the table so we asked one of the managers that walked by and she said she'd bring it over and she never showed up again.. Again extremely rude and unprofessional. I called the same day to speak with the manager and whomever answered the phone I believe it was Brittany refused to put the manager on the phone and then she left me on hold for over 20 minutes so I had to hang up. She gave me a really hard time wanting to know who I was and why I needed to speak with the manager. I'm still waiting on my reward points to be added even though I scanned my ticket.

Extremely slow service. Server took long times on returning to table. Drinks took a long time to be brought out especially drink from Bar, server had excuse that Bartender has a large to go order which wasn't our problem, they should have at least 2 Bartenders to avoid this from happening. Per server to log in on Table tablet to earn rewards for visit but did not work, at the end I had to scan to receipt to the app. What was the sense in logging in on the table tablet if it was not going to add my dining ticket to my rewards. Food could have been hotter and fresher. Clam chowder soup was barely warm. Not very satisfied with our overall experience.

Very small portions for the prices of many dishes. Fish fry friday was a small incredibly greasy piece of fish. Should have come with cole slaw but that was missing fro plate. Shrimp with alfredo sauce was a gloopy mess. Not many crab legs were served in the entree portion. Overall way too expensive for the quality and quantity of food served.

Had a Birthday celebration. First, it started out a little rough. We asked for seating for 12. Was told very rudely by management,they had no seating for that many and a reservation should have been made a week in advance with a deposit of a $100. So I asked to sit any place where we could all be near each other. We were celebrating a 92 year old person. There was not that many people in the restaurant. I was told we would have to wait for 30 or more minutes. Again I said that would be fine. We were finally seated at table that accommodated mostly everyone. Our hostess, Mikaylah took our orders and got food very quickly. Our orders included lobster, various shrimps, steak, chicken tenders and drinks. The hostess anticipated our needs before we could ask for anything. Only thing that bad was the burnt Brussels sprouts. The restrooms were clean. The place was very well kept. The waiter made up for roughness of management.
