So we decided to get a bite while we were in the area.My wife wanted the coconut Shrimp. I decided on the wings. I just about got the Lasagna. It's all ways been good over the years. I had a salad to go with my wings. Salad was fine. My wife wanted the sweet sauce for her coconut shrimp but it came with some other dipping sauce. Which neither she or I liked. Her Coconut shrimp were cooked that had it been a piece of meat it would be Well Done. There was no sign of coconut on the shrimp. And the dipping sauce wasn't even good. My wings were cooked to death. I was rolling them in the wing sauce to possibly give them some moisture. They were cooked dry I was having to wash each one down with my beverage. As we sat there talking to each other about how disappointed in our meal. I called our youngest son to see if he and his wife had eaten there in a while. And his first remark was we sure have a the quality of the food had gone down in flavor and quality. Not sure if we will get give DJ's another chance or not. Out waitress was spot on with Tea or anything we needed. A very pleasant young lady. Not sure what has changed. Had they been just slammed with customers but at 4 in the afternoon.

We love to eat out and we chose to eat here for my birthday this year…read more I sent a letter to the restaurant a week ago. This is an edited version. First impression: We were not automatically offered a table inside or out but were told "Follow me" to the outside table. Please see the photo. Does this look like a nice setup for an almost $300 meal? The table was wobbly. The paint on the wall was peeling. Maybe they should hire an artist to decorate that blank wall. The inside is very dark. First course: Oysters. Sauce delicious: BUT I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH TINY OYSTERS. Barely a blip in your mouth, 1/4"?? These are on the menu also as charred? Huh? Do they have different oysters for that? Nothing would be left. We got tiny oysters on seaweed did not match even the photo on their web site, decent size oysters on ice. One week later I ate at a restaurant in Hickory and got six fabulous oysters for $13.25. CV charges $21. Main course: Branzino and asparagus. $52. Very nice. But (and I just had to look back at the menu on line to see what this was), the charred radish was so hard you could hardly poke a fork into it, inedible. And I was not aware of a single fava bean as advertised on the menu. Swordfish special: $52. Slightly overcooked. Blackened carrots rock hard, inedible. Whoever is in charge of vegetables needs to taste before sending out. While we were eating the fish, the server placed two steak knives on the table. Huh? Dessert: Dubai chocolate eclair sounded great. Maybe bought at Costco or Sams??? Two arrived on a plate with absolutely no presentation. One with a squiggle of chocolate underneath would have been better. Absolutely no pistachio flavor and VERY COLD. Should be room temperature. Did they come out of the fridge or freezer? Perhaps at room temperature flavor would have been more obvious. It was nice that when I had mentioned dark instead of milk chocolate the kitchen used dark. Table not cleared for dessert. Steak knives still there. Irish coffee: there is more to Irish coffee than adding whisky to a lukewarm cup of coffee and asking if I wanted cream after coffee was delivered. I enclosed the recipe and photo in my letter. Wine: wine list fairly priced. Our server did not know anything about the Cotes de Rhone we questioned but brought the bottle for us to have a look at. As vineyard and winery owners we grew viognier, this is why we were interested in this particular bottle. The server took our photo and I mentioned it was my birthday. In many cases this would be referred to the kitchen. Nothing special ensued. The well dressed owner (Doreen) walked past our table a number of times (sometimes carrying used dishes or glasses) without even glancing at us. I guessed she was the owner and spoke up. A nod and hello would have been nice. We came here with an open mind prepared to spend a large sum on a birthday dinner. Read the captions under the pictures. One oyster shot from their web site. Wish I had photo'ed what I got. The other oyster shot Hickory Restaurant one week later for less money.

We were greeted right away by the husband and wife owner who were happy to show us a round a little. Down the outer aisles were all wines, conveniently organized, while in the center were racks of beer for the beer fans. The owners had some excellent suggestions, and were able to help my wife to a wine she turned out liking a lot. That particular wine was one where the producer from Italy had been in the store recently for a tasting and was bale to tell us some about the winery which was pretty neat. They had a decent selection and had a good range of low end up to the more pricey wines. Overall, a very nice experience and decent wine shop. Will certainly keep an eye out for tastings they may have in the future to stop back in!

Now it's home to the best, authentic Cuban cuisine in the area. Whether you're looking for small plated tapas to share among friends or a bountiful feast of deliciously seasoned entrees, Mambo has you covered. You can go the healthy route with their standout grilled salmon & mahi mahi with mixed veggies or indulge in savory dishes such as Chicken Milanese or Ropa Vieja. My favorite dishes are the enchiladas de camaron (shrimp smothered in a hearty sauce and served in a cast iron pot) and the plantain temptation (stuffed with cheese, rice, and protein of choice)! The Cuban sandwich is very good and I usually get one or two to take home. But the best kept secret is their Garlic Cilantro Sauce. It comes with the Yuca Frita (also amazing) and you'll want to ask for extra so you can pour it all over everything else. ¡Buen provecho!

It's busy, it's buzzing, and yes... you're absolutely questioning your life choices while waiting. But then those SINFULLY good yeast rolls show up and suddenly all is forgiven. I ordered the 6 oz filet, cooked medium rare, and it was chef's kiss--tender, juicy, and cooked exactly right. Paired with grilled shrimp, which were seasoned well and perfectly cooked, it hit that surf-and-turf sweet spot. The sweet potato was fluffy and comforting (brown sugar and butter doing the Lord's work), and the salad was fresh, crisp, and a surprisingly solid opener. Bottom line: Yes, the wait is long. Yes, it's loud and chaotic. But the food is consistently good, the portions deliver, and once that food hits the table, you remember why people are willing to wait it out. Would I do it again? Absolutely--just with patience, low expectations for quiet conversation, and a serious appetite.
