This place was good many years ago. Now it's a dive. Smoky, grimy, slow service, mediocre food. Went to the mens room, and an employee was snorting a line of powder off the sink. He said, "Hey dude, care for some blow?" I passed. Avoid this dump, by all means. read more

Went here for a birthday dinner and while the food was good and service was spot on, it was kind of weird that it was so empty. I am just so curious why. We were there on a Saturday night in August, and every restaurant in the vicinity was packed with a waitlist, so it was great to get a table. (We had the place to ourselves, actually.) If you are looking for good seafood, nice service and seating right away, it's a good pick; but something just freaked me out about nobody being there. read more

Imagine how delighted I, a Baltimore girl, was to find The Baltimore House! The hours online (Google, Google Maps, their website) don't agree, but luckily someone answered the phone and took my to-go order, which was ready in 20 minutes. (They are also open for dining in.) The hoagie was large and delicious, and I liked the green beans in butter, but the menu promised me $25 of large sea scallops. I got $10 of mini scallops. Still, I'll give the restaurant a try during crab season. Hopefully the pandemic will be over and we can attack them with wooden mallets in the themed dining room. read more

Disappointed and soggy Went to the Baltimore House because they are really the only place in Pittsburgh that has whole crabs. This place is on the decline. Not packed, just 4 tables sat in dining room, but took 20 min to just get my drink. The had advertisements everywhere for a new Black Rock cooking experience but it was not yet available in spite of the menus for it placed on the tables. The crabs were mushy and overcooked. The drinks were weak and watery. The service was not great as they gave me a real hard time with my Groupon. Then the roof started leaking, water pouring down, in the middle of the dining room. It's never been a 5 star restaurant but I used to like this place. I really hope that the Black Rock cooking revitalizes this place if not I don't see them lasting much longer. read more

I got take out from the Baltimore House so I didn't get the complete horrid experience that some of the other reviews say. But for starters the outside of the building needs a major makeover. The creepy, outdated statues aren't not doing any favors for this place. There are still signs on the exterior that say sushi and hibachi bar and they haven't served either of these in over a year. The inside isn't bad though. I was actually surprised with the main level. It gave off the vibe of a nice steak & seafood restaurant. Main level is non smoking; downstairs smoking is allowed. It is a lot louder downstairs that upstairs. Like most of the reviews say, the place was pretty empty. I went a little after 5pm but for it being a weekend, you'd think there would be at least someone else in the building, but nope! Just 3 employees. Now to get to the food...I can't say it was so horrible I had to eat food from another restaurant instead, but also not over-the-top amazing. I ordered the clam chowder to start. I'm not a huge clam chowder eater but it tasted pretty good to me. I don't have much to compare it to though, but I'd go back to get it again. I also got the lobster Mac and cheese. It was basically pasta mixed with lobster bits and then a cheese sauce on top of it. It tasted like something I could just throw together by myself, but it didn't taste bad. Just average and nothing I'd be eager to try again. Then for the main dish I got the lobster roll. When I first saw it, I was a bit surprised. It was about the size of my fist. I started questioning if I had accidentally ordered off the kids menu. It tasted good but if I had not ordered the app, I would definitely have been very hungry afterwards. read more

We came here because my mother had been here once with a couple of her friends. I can beleive the other reviews that say it's gone way down hill. And I don't think their sushi side of the business has ever seen a real sushi chef. And whoever said that no smiles were to be had, hit the nail on the head. If I hadn't been there with my aunt, I'd have given our waitress a good smack! But anyway, the fish I had was actually pretty good so there's at least one person there who knows what he's doing. I had stuffed flounder which was served in a very hot pewter pan. There were three pieces wrapped around some seafood stuffing. And it was pretty good and I ate it all! The side dishes were just so-so. I think I had steamed veggies and something else. All in all, it was passable but no better. read more

A kitchy imitation of Baltimore food. I am from Baltimore. While Pittsburgh has a great restaurant scene, sometimes I miss the great Baltimore crab cakes, hard crabs and other seafood dishes. Baltimore House was a huge disappointment. First, the place they wanted to seat us smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. They allow smoking in their bar area and everyone there was smoking. The regular restaurant tables were right next to the bar area without separate ventilation. We were going to leave until they agreed to open another room so that we could breathe. The decor included kitchy imitations of the decor from some classic Baltimore seafood houses. However the decor had seen better days. The rolls, served first were warm and crispy. They were served with real butter. You had to use your steak knife to spread the butter on the rolls. We got the surf and turf special. The prime rib was fattier than most prime rib cuts. It was cooked rare as we had requested. The crab cake was more cake than crab. There were wisps of crab meat but no actual lumps of crab. The crab cake had an odd sour note. We asked about the ingredients and nothing in the list would have accounted for the sour note. The server said that the crab cake contained Old Bay but I could not taste any. I had to hunt to find the lady's room. When I eventually found it, on a darkened room on another floor, I could not find a light switch so I had to prop the door open so I could see. I could not find any toilet paper so I had to use paper towels. read more

Have eaten here before on a couple of occasions and the food here is hit or miss. Stopped in for a quick happy hour beer today and got a Rouge Dead Guy Ale draft.

Despite the building advertising of sushi and hibachi, the Baltimore House did not have either. The food was pretty good but service was wayyyy awful. Apparently there was a crab special happening but we wouldn't know because no one told us until we were about to leave. We were pretty disappointed overall: no sushi, no hibachi, no crab, no avocado on my chicken avocado sandwich... pretty lame. read more

I have been coming here for well over 25 years for the crab legs. While they are always great. Tonight was the first time I've ever had horrendous service. The assistant manager on duty never did cone back to the table after she assured me she'd be right back. Dinner took almost 3 hrs for 2 people. Each time I needed a refill on my drink I had to flag someone down. While I understand they were short staffed the restaurant was not that busy to warrant the lack of concern or service. The woman assistant manager couldn't be bothered with complaints. Numerous people were complaining and waited 15 minutes to be seated when the restaurant was not full. read more

Let me preface this review by saying that I have never been enthusiastic about The Baltimore House. I can recall seeing their commercials on local TV for years and wanting very much to try them, if for no other reason than that they were a seafood restaurant that wasn't Red Lobster. Although, after about 5 mediocre-to-bad visits over the course of as many years prior to my Yelp tenure, I finally gave up on them. The reviews I read on Yelp in the years since my last experience with Baltimore House only affirmed my boycott. That was until Kay had a hankering for mussels, again. Why not give BH another chance? And BH does them pretty well if our meal was any proof. The mussels were as tender, juicy, and buttery as they should be with some chopped garlic added to pump up the flavor quotient. I couldn't decide on what to order for myself, so I went with their Seafood Norfolk, which features everything I pine for when I errr...sea-dine; lobster, scallops, crabmeat, and shrimp were all unimaginatively thrown together and sauteed in a butter sauce. Was it good? Well, yeah. To be truthful, I was starving, and the aforementioned ingredients are difficult to botch. However, combine that with a lifeless baked potato, burnt croutons, and a decent but obviously pre-fabricated Oreo mousse dessert, and I cannot give BH anything more or less than a 3. Kay ordered the extravagant Admiral's Seafood Platter, a smorgasbord that includes a lobster tail, scallops, shrimp, oyster shells stuffed with their Crabmeat Imperial, and filet mignon, all prepared yet again with BH's magic component, butter. She did let me taste the filet mignon, and through that morsel, I learned in splendid fashion that medium-rare is always the way to go when ordering steak. This was ideally cooked beef. Our server did a fine job and was a nice kid, so I have no gripes on that end. The interiors of The Baltimore House are eccentric and vast. You never know which room you'll be seated in. There's the room with the kitschy pirate statues, a few others I cannot recall, and then the faux nightclub. Guess where they put us. My back was turned for the duration of our meal, but based on the strident, pounding 80's dance music, multicolored lights, and odd barks and hoots that assailed my senses, I thought a wild party was afoot somewhere in the house. When I turned around, I only saw a handful of middle-aged suburbanites at the bar. Before we left, our waiter revealed that there were some "serious" drink specials that night, particularly on Jager bombs. Call the babysitter. Ask her to stay a little later. Woo. Hoo. The Baltimore House is an oddity that fails to be extraordinarily good but is in no way egregiously bad. If they were a little less pricey, I'd recommend them as a go-to for those times when one is desperate for seafood, but being that they're in the "Spendy" range, I'd advise area diners to stay away like most of the other reviewers on Yelp have. P.S. BH also houses a restaurant-within-a-restaurant called Kazoku that specializes in Japanese fare, including teppanyaki and sushi, but they were closed when we were there Friday evening. P.P.S. I should have taken a picture of the opulently wacky enclosed waterfall display outside. Clark Griswald would be impressed. read more

Well, its official, I've found my least favorite restaurant in the Pittsburgh area. I came here on a Saturday night with my sister-in-law and getting inside was tricky. There was some sort of benefit concert taking place so it was unclear where to enter. Once we finally navigated that we were asked to sit in smoking or non-smoking. We chose non, but let's just say that didn't stop the smoke from bellowing over to our table. In fact, my hair and clothes reeked from the hour I sat there. I can count on one hand the number of times I've sent a meal back to the kitchen and this recent experience at the Baltimore House can be counted in that category. We both chose the Alaskan crab legs and both immediately returned them. The little to no crab meat in the case was cold and rubbery. The waitress was nice though and immediately grabbed them and asked if we wanted something else. I got the crab cakes, which were 'meh' and my s-i-l just ordered mozzarella sticks that were also inedible. So we didn't insult or further upset our waitress she wrapped them up and hid them so it looked like she ate them. Service was spotty but our waitress was nice. Another employee at one point walked by our tables and yelled out the F-word. The 'bouncer' at the door near the ground floor entrance said he was only there for the event and had no idea if/when you could be seated. Decor is very bizarre and includes a non-working Jacuzzi under the steps. There appears to be a nautical/pirate theme but I also saw some other weird statues, such as a dog. I wouldn't mind all that if the food wasn't so terrible. Sorry, I'll never return. read more

I keep going to this restaurant bc its kind of tacky and fun looking on the outside and the one dining room looks like a cozy old mans den which for some reason I like. Last night we went and it was... strange. This restaurant is huge. There is a hibachi room and a sushi restaurant. Given the quality of the food for hte love of god i implore you not to order their sushi. It cant be anything but food poisoning on a plate! We were seated in the "old mans den room." Our waitress walked by our table 3 times and then came over and said, "Opps...I forgot to see you." I asked what beers they had on tap and said said, "no beer tonight. tap system down. no beer." so i asked if they had bottles. She said she was sure they had bottles but did not know what kind. In fact, she basically denied beer existed, until another waitress came over and confirmed they had Sam Adams in bottles. I order one. "We're out of that one. I can just bring you what we have." WTF? Turns out, they had Labatts. We ordered the crab leg appetizer, and when they brought us our bucket for the shells, there were bits of crab meat and smelly water in the bottom of the bucket. Its obvious they dont wash those so if for some reason you maybe threw something you were going ot eat into your bucket...leave it. that was pretty gross. The crab legs were good. They have this surf & turf thing where you can get different items and it was only $13. Never order $13 surf & turf. This is a life lesson. I had more crab legs and steak. The steak tasted freezer burned and was inedible. My friend had shrimp and baby back ribs and liked them, but this guy will eat anything so i do not trust his judgement. Half way through our meal the waitress came over, removed my half drunk Labatts and brandished a bottle of Sam Adams. "Ohh...I was wrongsies, we have Sam Adams now!" she said that. It was so weird. After she put it on the table she sat down on the floor and said, "Whew, now I can breathe." I think she's just a kook. There were only three of us dining there. It was so weird. I'll be back, probably over a year from now, just for crab legs. This place is weird but still seems kind of fun and it might be a fun place for cocktials. read more

This review is for the Kazoku Steakhouse INSIDE the Baltimore House, which doesn't have its own page and probably for good reason. Decent food, HORRIBLE service!!! We arrived at 5:20pm and actually thought the place was closed at first, not a soul was there. A waitress told us to "sit anywhere" and brought us drinks and menus and then 20 minutes later had us move from our empty table to another empty table where we sat, ignored for another 25 minutes. We think they were waiting to try to "fill up" the table, but no one came out and said anything to us like "We'd like to wait xx long to see if anyone else comes." So, just after 6 another couple came in and was seated with us. After they decided and placed their order, the hibachi chef confirmed our order and said that he'd "See about starting soon". Our soup arrived a full hour after we'd first sat down. The soup was good, the salad was veggies that had clearly been in the fridge cut up too long (dried out carrots, wilted greens) swimming in their dressing. No forks were provided, so everyone ate salad with fingers/chopsticks. Finally when the chef started cooking, he broke one of the eggs so it was unusable, and didn't add another, making 3 servings of fried rice with just one egg. I was supposed to have steamed rice, but the waitress brought the me sushi rice, then took it back and brought back the steamed rice. The chef over cooked our rare beef, his knife was clearly not sharp enough because he had to really work to get through the veggies and our meat, we discovered, was not sliced through, and we had large chunks of meat, too big for bite-sized. We waiting more than 15 minutes more after we were done for our check. They had cleared our plates so knew that we were done. I had to go find a manager to get our checks and then there was a problem because they had apparently put it in all as one. We had a PG deal coupon and the waitress repeatedly asked us what it was and where we got it. After I complained to the manager, she gave us 1/2 off one of our meals, making it just over $40 for the entire bill, so thank goodness we had the PG Deal because that was definitely way too much for the okay food and horrible, horrible service. They offered us the balance of the deal on a gift card and we refused, we will NEVER go back there again. The total time we were there was 2 1/2 hours and we saw our waitress a total of 4 times, before I went looking for the manager. read more

Pathetic! A. Took 15 minutes to get a waitress B. Took 25 minutes to get a drink C. Took 45+minutes to get our appetizer D. Upcharge on a caesar salad which was all lettuce, which was served after we all finished our house salad or soup. E. Took 75 minutes to get our meal which was luke warm. F. The calamari app was undercooked and for 6.99 there wasn't much on the plate. G. The scallop dinner had no flavor. H. The shrimp dinner was blah but they were huge shrimp. I. They had no baked potatoes J. The garlic mashed potatoes were more like starchy potatoes with no flavor. K. We asked for more bread to which we were told it was in the oven. We then were served sliced bread that was never in a oven. I think they ran to Sheetz and bought a loaf. L. The snow outside looked so appetizing because the refills were so slow. M. We weren't the only people complaining. N. Even with Groupon it was a total waste of money. O. Eat elsewhere P. My dogs poopsicles would of probably been a better meal. read more

A group of friends and I tried this place for the first time, being drawn in by the promises of 1lb of crab legs for $10. 3 of us ordered our crab while the other 2 ordered steak. Long story short: the crab legs were amazing, I felt bad for the two that ordered steak. Looking at the steak, it had a not-so-right gray color to it, first red flag, then you notice that half of it is mostly fat. For $20, I would want the large steak that it is supposed to be...not have to cut away half of the inedible portion of it. I didn't want to taste test it for myself, so I'll take my friends' word for it that it tasted as terrible as it looked. One of the unlucky receivers of steak called over a manager. Her excuse was that "the cut of meat is supposed to be fatty" to which my friend replied, "I could get a better cut of meat at a chain restaurant" (zingggg). The manager comped him the price of the steak so all was well. Our waitress and the whole ambiance of the place was...a little weird. The place was completely empty for being dinner time on a Saturday night before Christmas. Previous posters have explained the weirdness of the place and the waitresses so I don't have to go any further. Based on that, and the quality of my crab legs I have to give this place 4 out of 5 - I would definitely return..but ONLY for crab legs, I'm not sure that I would trust anything else on the menu. But if you were to ask those in my group who got the steak, they'd give it a 0 if they could. read more

I really don't know where to begin by telling you just how bad my experience was here this evening Strike ...1 it took about 10 minutes for my coke to arrive after the initial 10 min wait to actually order it strike 2... It took about 10 more minutes after the coke just to get a menu. strike 3....Another 10 minutes goes by, finally waiter comes by after I flag him down and I decided to order 2 appetizers the Lobster Bisque arrives 15 min after ordering it,... It also arrived at room temp, and I also ordered the buffalo shrimp, it came about 10 or 15 minutes after the soup,it was ok, but you sure don't get many, I think I counted 9 small shrimp both apps were ordered at the same time, talk about slow strike 4....another 15 minutes until I see my waiter, I decided on the Alfredo added shrimp to the pasta for an up charge Strike 5 ...about 30 minutes later I get the entree it's horrible the shrimp tasted like they were frozen and quickly thawed in water then added to the less than satisfactory Alfredo Strike 6... I have to ask for my check as waiter was passing...as I about had it with this place, it wasn't even worth my time to complain as it was obvious management didn't care about how the bussiness was run, I mean no one ever visit it my table or the table next to me. That table was less also less than impressed. I'm sure it's their last visit also. Conclusion don't let the name of this place get you in the door, trust me you will be very disappointed. Save your money and go just about anywhere else in the country before going to the Baltimore House in Pleasant Hills read more

I love the AYCE crab legs here. The service is hit-and-miss, but the crab legs are spectacular. So much so that we drive all the way to Curry Hollow from Cranberry during rush hour and are willing to deal with server roulette. I remember Baltimore house growing up, and it is definitely a shadow of its former self. Between the terrible exterior decor, and the hybrid decision to have an american seafood joint and a hibachi joint and the lack of good (non smoking) talent, I would advise my family and friends to not eat anything on the menu that's not the crab legs simply because I can guarantee that the kitchen isn't turning it around fast enough to provide fresh ingredients, and they're not making enough money to waste on keeping fresh stock of anything not on the AYCE special. It's also kind of dirty looking. ...But the crab legs are simply to DIE for. They freakin' nailed it. read more

Very bizarre atmosphere with a broken jacuzzi under the steps, bizarre statutes every where. Went there for a lunch. Service was slow despite us being the only customers there.

Prime Saturday night dinner rush hours- not 1 person in a restaurant that holds 500+. Prior warning to not do the was fair. Fried bar food was good as any fried bar food. Drinks were fantastic - 1 bartender and 1 cook the whole night and they did a superb job on taking care of 30+ guests once the live band started playing. Funky construction design- great band though. That Which Survives Rocks! read more

I was a little skeptical from all the yelp reviews, but had lunch at Baltimore House. We were the first people in, the tabletops could've been cleaner but the service was great. I ordered a pound of crab legs and chicken fettuccine Alfredo. Crab legs were small but I think they gave more than a pound for that reason, and the Alfredo was delicious. My fiancé had a pound of crabs legs as well, along with the prime rib that he devoured. Their butter is like liquid gold! All in all, food was good but the decor and cleanliness could use some work! I'll go back :) read more

I as there with a party of 6 and the service was horrible food not ready and coming out burnt. We were there at 6 pm on a Tuesday for all you can eat ribs and shrimp or crab legs and shrimp...the wedding soup was just being made at 6 pm and they open for lunch. Three out of four orders of ribs and shrimp they only got the ribs and for the crab legs and shrimp one got 3 pieces of shrimp and the other got 2 the butter for dipping was only half filled and harden up waiting on additional crab legs. Had to ask at least 3 time for the salad that was ordered. Was informed that the ribs were just being cook again it is after 6 pm. Asked to see the manager and he would not come to our table... read more

Driving past this place for many years, my family was always scared away by the tacky exterior complete with busty pirate wench. When we finally decided to stop in, we were quite surprised to find what is a very vast and extravagant interior. Sure, there's still some tacky inside, but you could spend hours just walking through exploring the curious objects like it was some strange museum. The prices for both the fish and the alcohol are extremely reasonable; much lower than you'll find for comparable meals in the area. The fish also met with my father's very exacting standards (he is never one to miss when someone uses "K"rab meat, "nearly fresh" fish, or just the wrong type of fish altogether). The interior space, prices, and location near Jefferson Memorial Park also made this the perfect place when we needed a restaurant for a post-funeral lunch. Their menu options were very traditional and perfect for our needs, and as a group I believe we finished every last item served on the buffet. With the reasonable drink prices, it was also very easy to make it a cash bar without anyone feeling put out. At this point we've eaten there maybe a half dozen times - any time my family comes to town we usually take a trip over. The individual experiences have been a bit of a mixed bag, with the worst being a Friday night we went and were seated upstairs near a band that was warming up the entire meal. I and my mother enjoyed the crab cakes, not the ambiance, though my father was very disappointed with his seafood pasta meal as being almost devoid of fish and overly sauced. The waitresses have also been kindof mixed, some being very nice while others have been downright weird. Our best meals there have generally been during the week, or for lunch, where they seat us downstairs off the bar area. I will probably avoid dinner hour on the weekends going forward, since it's those times that didn't go as well. Despite a couple of mediocre experiences, I still like this place and have never personally had a bad meal food-wise. It's one of the few non-chain restaurants in the Century III area, and honestly the interior just fascinates me every time. read more

This place is great! Last night my girlfriend, her brother, my one year old, and I went for the blue claw crabs and it was an excellent experience. This is not only the only place around here that has the crabs, but they were also among the best I have ever had. The owner drives to Maryland every Thursday to make this happen. I have lived in Pittsburgh for 6 years now and am a Long Island NY transplant, these crabs are the thing I missed most from home and they really did them right, and at only $2.99 a piece! If you like blue crabs seriously go check this place out, you will not be disappointed! The staff was very friendly, they had a high chair with working straps (not a given in the area), and everything was clean. I have also been here for crab leg and prime rib AYCE night and they did a great job with that as well. read more

We always have a great time at the Baltimore House - especially in the summer when it's blue crab season. Good people. Good seafood.

Down hill fast. Specials (as advertised) are not available. Sushi and hibachi are gone! Found ceramic in our food. Its basically just a local bar with bands... and nothing more. read more

Horrible! Entire place smells like a urinal cake. Food some of the worst I've ever had. Stay away.

PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU CAN!! I had a birthday dinner for 20 at this restaurant and it was an awful experience. It was a Saturday night and the parking lot was empty. Like no cars! That should have been my first clue! The drinks were flat and poured out of a Bottle although the banana/coconut mixed drink was actually really good.(the only good thing) It took forever to get our apps. I ordered fried calamari and it was so rubbery I could barely chew it the clam chowder had no taste. The crab dip was so so. There were a couple apps that were good like the Asian shrimp and buffalo shrimp but that's it. It then took an eternity for our main courses to come. Like 1 and a 1/2 hrs to 2 hrs after ordering. The only thing on my plate that was edible was the crab legs. My steak was so burnt/dry I might as well of been licking the charcoal off the grill. The baked potato I ordered was burnt as well. I thought maybe it's just black on the outside but no the whole potato tasted awful. My mother's steak was so black and charred it was like sawing through wood trying to cut it. She ordered a medium well steak. The shrimp Alfredo is just a white flavorless sauce. I never fell the need to write these reviews but this was an absolute disaster and I will never return to this restaurant. The server was nice but the poor girl had to keep going up/downstairs to collect our food all by herself. No rhyme or reason to this restaurant. Just pure trash! DO NOT GO HERE YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!!! read more

I was pretty weary of this place because of all the bad reviews, but I was willing to try it because it looked cool/interesting and I love seafood. This place was basically a meme. The inside is like a labyrinth. The lights and decorations make it seem like it's trying to be cool but ultimately it's just... strange. I got a pretty generic meal. Crab legs and fries. The fries came out scalding hot and the crab legs were cold. It was hard to break them and get any meat out either. There was a fry in my butter sauce when they gave me my plate. My friends got the hardshell crabs and they didn't have high expectations, but they said they were pretty bad. Overcooked and hard to get any meat out. It's a shame, we love crab. We've all had some really good crab at places in Maryland, but this place was a joke. It was doable and luckily didn't make us sick. But don't spend $60 on a dinner for 2 here, it tries to look semi-fancy but it's just flat out bad. read more

The sushi here is a JOKE! First off, they advertise "Half off Sushi, 4:30 - 6:30." Once that little tidbit gets you inside, you find out that it is ONLY at the bar, and it is ONLY select rolls! I'm sorry, but that is FALSE ADVERTISING!!! While the ingredients were fresh enough, whoever they have as their sushi chef is an amateur at best! They were WAY off on the rice to fish ratio, and the rice was so hot, it actually started to cook the fish! BTW, My wife enjoyed the Hibachi she had, and the Hibachi chef was very good. I highly doubt I will ever go back. read more

It was a good meal. My boyfriend and I decided to give it a try. He got something with sea food and I got scallops shrimp and lobster. The chef was good to talk to and friendly. We were the only ones there but it was OK because the food was great were actually going back tonight. I'll be sure to take pictures this time read more

rarely do I give a restaurant a terrible review but I would never recommend the Baltimore house to anyone! Lobster sandwich had hardly any lobster and they told me I was lucky to get that as they were out of it. Why not tell me to order something else then. Place looked dirty. They sat us at a booth, then waitress told us they have a problem with bugs there. They sat us by the kitchen door which kept slamming then we asked for a different table and the table was lopsided and rocking. Another waitress told our waitress she was mean for making us move. Service and food were terrible! read more

The worst food I have ever had at a restaurant. Please note that I am not even rating the service, which was not good, or the overall cleanliness, which was abysmal . . . Just the horrible food. I don't understand how this place is in business. I would never recommend this to anyone. We ordered various fish, salads and fries. All bad, don't bother! read more

Came here last Tuesday with a friend for dinner. The food and the service were both horrible! Outside there is a huge sign saying 2$ drinks all day, the waiter told us they had no 2$ drinks and seemed to have no clue what we were talking about. I ordered the Alfredo and my friend ordered shrimp. Our salad and soup came out and it was almost an hour before our meal came. When we did finally get our meals, they were wrong. The alfredo was completely tasteless. We never did get our coleslaw and we were charged for rice that we didn't order. Another thing I didn't like was that we were brought our check before we even got our food. The place was far from busy. We ended up paying 50$ for food we didn't eat! Were ended up leaving and going to McDonalds! read more

On Wed. 25, 2012 at approximately 6:30PM 4 of us (one child) came for All You Can Eat Seafood Buffet. POOR WAITRESS. Was taking care of other patrons more than my table. We were served 3 full sized lobsters ONE TIME. We were not EATING more than sitting. Service was slow, there were approximately only 7 tables occupied. One set of three TAILS were not cooked thoroughly and the manager was summonsed. This is the VERY LAST TIME I AM EATING AT THIS PARTICULAR ESTABLISHMENT. Even when we were being served TAILS only - other patrons were getting FULL SIZED LOBSTERS (smh). We only paid for the child's meal. They'll have to explain how they comped those 3 meals... Ended up getting the general managers name and telephone. They will be contacted about the poor service we were extended at their establishment. read more
