    The food was cold, drinks were forgotten, service was negligent. When dissatisfaction was expressed to the server management was not notified when I notified management of the horrible experience upon leaving.Nothing was offered, and a very lukewarm apology was given very disappointing experience from a restaurant of this caliber

    Mr Bs was very busy on Thanksgiving Day. Service suffered. The wait staff did their basic jobs but we're not attentive at all. Basically overworked leading to poor service. I guess that you pay enough to expect better.

    Server was rude. When I asked a question about an ingredient listed under a menu item, he said “you don’t know what that is? Don’t you cook?” Turned out he didn’t know what the ingredient was either. Service was slow. Place was chaotic and loud. Food was marginal at best. Was so disappointed after expecting much more. Manager did refund one meal for a steak that was terribly prepared. Never offered drink refills. Would not return.

    We dined at Mr B's for Thanksgiving. We arrived around a half-hour early for our reservation, but they were able to seat us right away. The table was not close to being level, but that was resolved very quickly. They had my favorite beer, Canebrake, and my wife had two delicious espresso martinis'. She said they were among the best she ever tasted. For appetizers, I had the mushroom ragout and my wife had the poached pear salad. They were both outstanding. For our main courses, my wife had the trout and I had the barbequed shrimp. The trout was very good, though she said it tasted a bit more "fishy" than expected. I had not had barbequed shrimp at Mr B's in many years, and I must say, I was somewhat disappointed. I do not know if my taste buds have changed over the years, or what, but I will leave it at that. For dessert, I had the bread pudding and my better half had the creme brulee. Both were excellent. I had an Irish coffee with dessert, and there certainly was a healthy pour of whiskey. All in all it was a very good Thanksgiving meal. Our waiter, whose name I have forgotten, was outstanding. And they still validate parking for the lot on Iberville, so it only cost $3 to park!

    Renata our server was top notch. All of her recommendations were delicious. The fried oysters app was amazing. Made for a great Thanksgiving celebration.
