    Solid as usual. Waited about 30 minutes after reservation time since it was busy. Prices on all you can eat snow grab jumped up and was pricey and many of the legs had meat that was way to salty and got stuck to the shell making them harder to eat. Service was very good.

    One of our worse meals ever. It took over an hour and a half to get out dinner served. We had an appetizer of 3.medium stone crab claws. They were overcooked and dry. Not much meat. Then a lobster tail was overcooked and the texture of a car tire - tough and chewy. We returned it. Side dishes of mixed vegetables were totally overcooked to the point that were all the same khaki color - totally inedible. The rice pilaf was way over cooked as well. It was a plate full of sticky mush. The naked sweet potato were good. We had an order of the snow Crabs that was also good. As well as a blackened mahi mahi that was good. If we didn't get to the restaurant at 6:30 and get served dinner at 8:15 it might have been a better experience. But bad food can't be changed.
