Craving a crab boil and decided to give red lobster a try since they recently added seafood boils…read moreto their menu. Service was slow, waited about 10 min for our waiter to greet us, another 10 min for drinks and bread service. Ordered the margarita flight 4/5 decent, Mariners added sausage 2/5. My food came out missing the corn and potatoes which the manager promptly apologized for and gave me a discount. But if you like a good crab boil skip RL and go to another place specializing in boils. I tried the mix of all seasonings and it taste like just butter with parsley. No flavor depth at all! RL def missed the mark with the attempt at boils.

Every so often you have to take a scroll back and see if anything new has been added to the menus. Not sure if this is new, but it's definitely something I haven't tried. We tried the Bang Bang Shrimp along with the Fried Shrimp Po' Boy platter and Hush Puppies. The Bang Bang Shrimp sauce was different from what we had tasted before, but it was good. I was looking for a sweeter taste but again, it still had a great taste. It came on a bed of lettuce. The Shrimp Po' Boy platter came with French Fries. The fries were crunchy and delicious! Matter of fact, they were perfect:) The Shrimp Po' Boy was good and simple. It didn't have a lot of stuff on it, which was cool for me. Again, the sauce was okay but the shrimp and fixings were delightful. These Hush puppies are always good, so no complaints there. Friendly staff and clean restaurant. This is a place I recommend. I will be back soon:)

10/10--no exaggeration. Mr. Seafood is so good!…read more I ordered the fish and shrimp basket, and everything was fresh, crispy, and piping hot--fried to absolute perfection. The seafood combo was just as delicious, with great seasoning and fresh ingredients. While they do have seating available, the space feels more like a takeout spot than a dine-in restaurant, which worked perfectly for grabbing a meal on the go. The service was top-notch. The woman who took my order was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend if you're craving great seafood!

Good quality local business, fish was fresh and delicious! Would definitely eat there again.read more

Visiting in town for the weekend and had a few family members brag about this place. Ordered the…read moreflounder. Did not like it. They left the black skin on it and fried over it. Filet was skinny and fried a bit tough. The crab fries. Being from the Jersey/Philly area we get crab fries in Philly all the time. These are fries with a red type dusting on them and they are good, THESE had some kind of imitation crab meat all over them. Very sweet and I was not prepared for the taste. Did not like them. Will not return.

Since we were over in the area, we decided to do a pickup on our way home. We ordered from BoneFish…read moreGrill. I ordered the Creamy Tomato Salmon Linguine. It also came with bread. This was a really great combination! The linguine was prepared perfectly. It was filled with mushrooms, spinach, diced tomatoes, parmesan and basil. On top was the salmon. The salmon was tender with a buttery texture. It was so yummy!!! My husband ordered the Pineapple Glazed Shrimp. He had been wanting this for a while but that all changed when he opened it when we got home. There was no creamy risotto! He was disappointed that they had forgotten the risotto. Nevertheless, he did enjoy the shrimp. Maybe next time we are on that side of town he will get his chance:) Service was good. It took awhile for our food to come out, but that was fine. The restaurant wasn't full at all, it was nice and quiet. The ambiance was nice, and the restaurant was clean.

The cocktails were amazing! Hugs to the bartender because the drinks were so great. The imperial dip with the tortilla chips was served very hot and was very delicious. It has a crisped top and is truly cooked very well. The corn and crab chowder was tasty. The kids' chicken and fries were also pretty good and served hot and fresh. The loaded mashed potatoes, sirloin, and brussels sprouts were all so delicious and perfectly prepared. What put Bonefish back on my radar was their lunch special, which is a beverage, a soup or salad, and an entree from their select menu. I ordered the fish and fries, and the fish was cod, fried well, and really delicious. All for $14.99. They also have a good social hour and many other specials.

I had the Teriyaki Salmon that was cooked perfectly and popped with flavor. My husband had the shrimp, sweet potato fries and green beans -- he is particular about his food and raved about each item. The other couple we were with had the epicurean salad and shrimp Alfredo that they almost licked off the plate, Amanda provided prompt friendly service. I hesitated to give a review, because I don't want it to get so busy we can't get in! Will definitely dine here again!!!!!

First off. What a cool place! Shucker bar in back and to get oysters, go there. I was privileged,…read moreand it was, to have Jim as my shucker. He was great. His responsiveness was really good. Had a great conversation with him as he was shucking the oysters. Was cool to have them shucked and placed on the ice right in front of you! Asked him for recommendations and he said the gumbo over the Growder. Glad I listened. Gumbo had enough of a kick to make it tasty with a reminder you were eating something spicy. I will definitely be back and when I do I hope to get Jim again.

Crab legs were another highlight. The steamed shrimp and oysters were not as amazing; our shucker's technique drained all the juice out of the oysters before serving, and the juice is a big part of the point for me. The cooked oysters did not compare to the grilled oysters at Acme in New Orleans IMHO. Raw oyster eaters in our party, on the other hand, gave the winter gulf oysters two thumbs up. Sitting at this bar is a great way for visitors to Columbia to feel like natives. It's an experience not to be missed.

I ordered a steak, broccoli and salad. The steak was a perfectly medium rare, very nicely seasoned and delicious! Broccoli was just steamed broccoli, but was still nice and crisp. Salad was small and the dressing was pretty bad. Asked for a different one and it wasn't much better. Very clearly food service bottled stuff. But really, that was the only glitch. Would for sure come back here if I'm in Sumter again.

This was so good and juicy. It had just the right amount of sauce, not too heavy or too light. It was perfect:) The broccoli was nice and fresh. Omg, the hush puppies were amazing! My husband ordered the Chili the Kid Tacos. The meat he chose was chicken. He stated it had a little spice with a sweet aftertaste. This he loved! The chicken was tender and full of guacamole, pickled onions and salsa. He also ordered Spanish rice and beans to make his meal complete. Everything was prepared well. Customer service was great. The ambiance was well lit, and the restaurant was clean. We enjoyed everything to the last drop!
