Full bar, remember the price you are paying vs. the food you are getting.  ;-)  Otherwise have funn.

I've been lucky apparantly..........the food has been good.  It's not Criolla's but good.  The oysters to die for!!!

That's what I'm saying, it's not bad food by any means, but it clearly comes out of a warming tray. You just can't order seafood and have it in 2 minutes. That's not cooked to order. ;-)

I've had Mahi and it didn't take 2 minutes....more like an hour, but to clarify...I ordered oysters first.  The Mahi was very good.  Everyone else had a good meal with our party.  Atmosphere, food and full bar and good prices are a good combo.  I my reconsider if I had a bad meal there and I've eaten there 3 times.

Fish Tacos...:drool:

Plus, they have specials every night.  My gumbo was only 49 cents last time I went!

Hmm, I got the seafood platter and it was out in 2 minutes.  That's pretty quick for shrimp and 2 kinds of fish.

thanks for all the info.  Decided to go to Stinky's instead.  Glad we did I had the cobia and it was to die for.  The sauce was so good, friend had the Stinkys stew and it was great.  Only problem looked at my credit card this am and they charged me twice.  I am sure they will take care of it.  Some day I will make it to Stinky's just hate to leave the A.  Anyone know of good music going on today, Labor Day

I get the double charge from restaurants on occassion.  I think it's just a glitch that occurs.  Only one should actually post and the other might stick around for a few days as an authorization only.  It's a pain, but there's really nothing the business or the bank can do.  Gotta love technology.
