I really wanted to like this place, but it fell flat. The service staff were kind and attentive but…read moreI definitely felt rushed though the restaurant wasn't full. The menu looked great, but I was surprised that the only option for a fresh catch of the day was on top of a salad. There were several specialty dishes, but many at our table felt they were very under-seasoned. The jambalaya came out looking like soup and was very bland. The pasta dish was buttery but had zero salt. It was like the restaurant was trying to be finer dining but the execution was off. It was fine but not great. They only sell wine and beer. Three dessert options. Again, not a bad meal, but I was surprised at how good the ratings were given our table's food, so maybe we were there on an off night.

Another truly outstanding experience at Duck's Bar and Grill…read more From one business owner to another, I have a deep appreciation for what you're doing here. Everything--from the atmosphere to the execution--is top tier. But what really sets you apart is your attention to detail and genuine care for your customers. Our waitress tonight, Kaila, was absolutely phenomenal. She picked up on something most people would overlook--I don't use straws--and brought my drink without one, without me even having to ask. That may seem small to some, but to me, that level of awareness and intentional service speaks volumes. It's those little things that create unforgettable experiences and separate good businesses from truly great ones. Kaila absolutely crushed it tonight, and it's clear your team is operating at a very high level. Keep doing what you're doing--you've built something special.

I was just disappointed when I visited saltwater Grill recently for a birthday celebration. They…read morewere just three of us at the table and it was for lunch. We had a choice to sit outside where it was in the 90° weather range or stay inside in the air conditioner. We chose the latter. People were drinking at the bar which made things loud.an Our only other option was to sit in back close to where the food was prepared. Neither choice was good. There were some screaming children sitting close by, and that ruined it for us as well. On the other hand, we had a wonderful server by the name of faith. She was very good at what she did. The food was so so. I've been visiting this restaurant off and on for the last 20 years. They have a long way to go to get up to par.
