    Ha, just compared receipts from this visit to the previous one, and realized that we pretty much order the same things! We are such creatures of habit. We really wanted to order Raw Oysters today, but no one else has and we thought we should wait till Nov.

    Such an underrated establishment! The shrimp salad was so good and perhaps one of my favorites. They did not skimp on the shrimps or the seasoning. I definitely plan to come back so stayed tuned!

    Fried shrimp and oysters   If they seasoned anything it would be amazing

    Would give it 5 stars if the food was seasoned. Everything was freshly fried but nothing was seasoned. You fix that and it's an amazing place to get seafood

    We had a group of four and they have changed the ordering process since our last visit. You enter and get in line to order at the counter. Not a bad change but we were waiting outside for a server for a couple of minutes before we figured that out. I ordered the oyster Po'Boy and made some cocktail sauce (catchup and horseradish),lemons. The sandwich was okay but it should have had twice as much oyster in the sandwich. Mostly bread, tomato, onion, and pickle po'boy. The food did come out quickly.

    So disappointing. I don't know what type of fish this is, but there is no way this is catfish. On top of that, it was bland. I ordered online this afternoon at the Big Shucks Richardson location. I used to love this place years ago. The last time I was here, it was a similar experience. I decided to give them another try. I won't be back.

    Been coming here for years. The service has never disappointed me. During prime time, food can come out quite slow, but be patient. It's worth it! I love their fried catfish, raw oysters, shrimp cocktails, and boiled shrimp/crawfish. These are my go-to. They always taste so good.

Our server, Stephen, was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the entire experience. We started with the bruschetta board and it was delicious. My favorites were definitely the salmon & pesto and the goat cheese with sweet pepper jam--so flavorful and balanced perfectly. We both ordered the Select Two combo. I got a nine inch panini on focaccia bread paired with the soup of the moment: potato, leek, and artichoke soup, which was surprisingly so good and comforting. My friend ordered the same combo but paired hers with the Brussels sprout salad and had her panini on focaccia bread with tuna. She was also offered three wine tastings, which we thought was such a nice touch! To end everything, we tried the hot donut dots and they were amazing. They didn't taste oily at all, were light and fluffy, not overly sweet, and cooked perfectly. Definitely a spot we'd come back to again!

We shared a bruschetta board where we can pick 4 different options. We opted for: Salmon pesto 11/10 Bruratta, bacon, arugula 10/10 Mozzarella, tomato, basil 8/10 Brie, apple, fig 10/10 We were both very satisfied with our selection. We also shared an order of donut holes for desserts. It was fredhly made, crispy on the outside, warm and soft on the inside. It came with caramel, vanilla bean (our favorite),and chocolate sauce on the side for dipping. Great service, great food :)

The mangos add a nice sweetness & really makes the dish. We went there for the meatloaf, Maguire's meatloaf never disappoints. It's the same delicious dish from 20+ years ago that brings happiness to the heart. Crispy onions, with cheddar mashed potatoes... love, love, love.

I had booked a reservation on Resy and we were seated immediately in a small, intimate booth. Initially, it was not terribly loud, but as the evening progressed and several large parties were seated nearby; the sound of the music was completely drowned out. I think more noise abatement measures could be taken to absorb some of the obtrusive loudness we were getting. For a starter, we ordered the Calamari. It was fried perfectly and was great, but the Thai Sticky sauce was too sweet and the consistency of the sauce was thin. It needed something to make it more viscous, and a secondary sauce, like a marinara or even an aioli would've been nice to balance out the sweetness of the Thai sauce. For an entree, I ordered the Maple- Ginger Salmon. The salmon was cooked perfectly and itself was delicious, but the sauce was too sweet and rich. The fired rice that accompanied my meal was over-the-top salty. It was almost going into "too much" territory. For desert we split the Passion Fruit Ice Cream Pie. This was actually very good and not overly sweet. It was my favorite item from my meal. Overall Renny's truly employs a lot of care and attention to the food, but some of the items crossed a line into "too much" territory. Be it sweetness or saltiness, the kitchen could exercise a bit of restraint to let the flavors of the food shine.
