Captain D&#x27;s

We visited this great spot in the gorgeous Ross Bridge neighborhood to try something new for my…read moreson's birthday meal. Because of the intense Alabama heat, we chose to sit inside, though they have a really nice screened-in patio available. The restaurant is intimate but well laid out, featuring a couple of distinct dining areas and a bar. Since it was our first time, our server, Daniella, recommended the candied bacon bombs to start. They came with a side of cheese curds, and both were absolutely delicious. Even as small as the curds were, they had a perfect cheese pull! For our mains, I ordered the cowboy burger with an added egg and a side of sweet potato fries, while my son chose the shrimp and grits. My burger was incredible, a solid 9.5 out of 10. My son rated his shrimp and grits a 7, though he has a lot of experience with that dish to compare it to. Daniella provided fantastic service, checking in at just the right times without hovering. I later realized I forgot to ask if they do anything special for birthdays, but honestly, my son was probably glad I forgot! Overall, it was a great meal, excellent service, and a very cool environment.

Overall this place was a 10/10. Lively with great staff really makes this place a gem. I will definitely be back.

I was impressed with how the inside of the restaurant looked. It's somewhere you could sit down and eat if you wanted. I like coming here because they understand the request of frying my chicken wings hard. They don't fry them so hard that they're dried out, but they do fry them hard enough to where there is a nice crisp to the wings. I like to get my sauce on the side so that the wings remain crispy and do not get soggy. I have no doubt that I will be patronizing this restaurant again soon.

Service was warm and attentive, though with only a couple of other tables occupied, I would expect nothing less. My first drink, a flat Dr. Pepper, was quickly swapped out for sweet tea, which was far more satisfying. We started with the fried mushrooms, and honestly--they stole the show. Perfectly crisp on the outside, tender and juicy inside, and seasoned just right. We devoured every single one, which might explain why we struggled to finish our entrées. As for the mains, the roasted corn was cooked well but lacked seasoning, and the coleslaw was forgettable. My chopped steak had a nice mix of peppers and onions but arrived without the gravy promised on the menu, leaving it on the dry side. To top it off, when I asked for A1, it came in a tiny ramekin... with an extra charge. In the end, Jefferson's wasn't a disaster, but it wasn't memorable either--except for those fried mushrooms. If I ever return, it'll be for them and them alone.

It was just three of us from my dinner group that decided to meet here. I started off with the blood orange Margarita, which was only five dollars because it was happy hour and it was very delicious I love the warm, doughy bread served with a distinct, salty, and flavorful herb-oil dip starts off every meal. I ended up getting two appetizers. I got the lasagna dip and the meatball sliders. Both were equally delicious. When I usually come here, the parking lot is so full, but since we came in the early afternoon, it wasn't bad at all. Gianna with our server and she was very attentive and personable. And she did give good suggestions. Before, if you were doing the happy hour, you would have to sit in the bar area, but now you can sit in the dining area as well which I thought was great. I will definitely be back here sooner than later for another happy hour.

However, my fettuccine with the grilled chicken was lukewarm basically cold. Usually we go on a Sunday and the food is piping hot with flavor just perfect on Sundays. I have never had a bad experience here. I think we are all seeing this big trend happening with the food service and restaurants just not living up to our standards. The only time I feel like I am not duped out of spending good money for food is when we are cruising. It's like you get the best of both worlds on a cruise. At least with Royal Caribbean you do. You may ask me, why didn't you take a picture of the food? Because I was just disappointed because we went in the evening time and not during lunchtime on Sundays. Maybe that was it. You know what I think I'm gonna go back by there to try it one more time on our Sunday outing. I'll let you know how it goes. And you can take that to the bank!
