Don't waste your money here.
Where to start?
How about the reservation, and then the seating, first in the bar by the door and bus tubs!! No thanks, Oh you wanted the the dinning area? Duh, reservations made for 2 at the BAR, give me a break. Next, the waiter, ordered the wine and he know nothing about who is to approve wine quality, just pours into glasses, Oh BTW can we have some water (highball glass)?
Next after being sold on the "excellent Oysters on the half shell" and Entrées we ordered, and waited and waited and waited. The Oysters showed up and within 1 minute the entrées showed up too. Oh BTW can we have some water ?
The Oysters appreared as if they had been opened with a fork as the meat was destroyed and for the price, don't waste your money, go to Pappadeaux,
Oh BTW can we have some water ?
The Entrées:
Both too salty, Scallops raw, and
Oh BTW can we have some water ?
The Bill--
6 shredded oysters
1 bottle wine
2 salty main entrées
1 cafe nudge
Bill = $119.00
And the waiter thinks that when you give him $140.00 for the tab the ballance is his tip?

100.00 for Food I didn't want to eat..
We have gone here for a few years now and I think the food has gone down hill.
3 years ago my wife and I had a wonderful dinner here and enjoyed everything about the place.
Last year we ate here and the food was so-so
This year, besides the 30$s a plate, the food was just not very good. I had Bacon wrapped shrimp with grits and I could not even eat all of the 4 jumbo shrimp. Not because it was to much food, only 4 shrimp, but because it was not very good at all!!! My wife had catfish that was soggy.
I was a big fan of this place when my wife and I ate here back in 2007, but every time I go back it gets worse. I will not return. I hope you don't either.…

Clubby corporate restaurant draws seafood lovers with fresh daily catches and posh atmosphere..
In Short
Upscale and sophisticated, this chain features art deco-inspired trappings such as dark wood, shiny brass and beveled glass. Servers clad in black and white weave through
