Dirty Shrimp
Cakesthatrock K.

I've always enjoyed eating at Blue Bay until I seen the intestinal track left in my shrimp. Over 75 percent of the shrimp was not cleaned. Shrimp poop goes against my strict diet . I called to inform Blue Bay about their uncleaned shrimp and did not get a friendly customer service. Guess my feedback was unwanted. I expect to get what I pay for. I thought I was paying for clean shrimp. I learnt the hard way that shrimp can very dangerous to your liver if it is not clean. Beware pay close attention to your baby shrimp. You do not want your liver inflamed nor the medical bills!

Oh my gosh they use to be so good and a good value but not anymore. We've been going here probably 30 years and we stopped 3 years ago because the Monday night shrimp special just wasn't even worth the low price of 4.99. I believe now it has gone up again to 5.49. We decided to go back and give it another chance on a sunday evening...big mistake. They have a list of sunday specials, the baby shrimp plate on sundays is 11.99, what the heck is special about that? Answer...nothing! It was a plate full but not at all worth the higher price tag. One thing I always liked about them is no matter what you were drinking they brought a pitcher of it to the table and left it. Now they only do that with tea or water and I hate having to beg for Cheerwine refills. Going on hiatus from them again! I'd rather drive 30 minutes to Concord.

They cut down the menu items and increased the prices. More general or staple items are now up charged.

Average fish camp style restaurant. The heavy smell of fried fish lingers in the air. Still, they are solid at what they do.

My favorite restaurant in Salisbury!…read more Just like their sister location up the road in Mooresville, this Village Inn excels at their unique variety of pizza. Their crust is thin and light, but still sturdy enough to hold all your toppings. Crisp on the bottom, soft inside, it's truly wonderful. While you can get a single pizza as a carry out order the buffet is where its at. Any given hour there are eight or so different pizzas up on the line, but they're never sitting long enough to get cold. They usually get eaten pretty quickly, especially around lunch time, but there is always an eagle eyed employee keeping track of whats out there and communicating with the kitchen. During the day they are nearly constantly making fresh pies of all varieties. Something you want and don't see it out there? Just ask! They will be happy to make a specific type of pizza for you and have it out in a flash. They cut the slices on the small side so you can try out more options, or maybe just feel better about how many you've had! This place isn't fancy, isn't modern, it's just really yummy! The staff is polite and the food is delicious. They do one thing here and they do it very, very well. Absolutely worth a visit.

It could actually use a good dusting as it was a cobweb across the back fire door stretching to the ceiling. Pizza selections or unique with lots of vegetables and meats all mixed together. It was less than one pie that was cheese of pepperoni. The crust was cracker like. It wasn't a bad pizza just wasn't a great pizza. Salad bar was pretty standard. The soups were chicken, dumpling, or beef vegetable. I got the beef vegetable and it was OK. It seems to be something wrong with the soda machine as I first tried Cheerwine and then Mr Pubb. Both seemed like the mix of syrup too carbonated water was off. The car seemed fine, but they both tasted very watery. Probably the highlight where the dessert pizzas that they brought out. They had a cinnamon strudel an apple cheesecake and a strawberry. These were probably the highlight of the meal. Surprisingly, the restaurant he had some somewhat steady business. The employees that worked there were all very friendly. It is unlikely that I would return though

Absolutely fantastic find. Salisbury really needed a restaurant like this! The server was great,…read morereally taking pride in what she does. Incredibly informative about the menu, friendly, thorough, and completely elevated the experience. I can't remember her name but she said she just celebrated her one year anniversary working there. The chef, Kyle, came to our table to discuss a food allergy of someone in our party and came back multiple times to talk to us. He was GREAT, and we could really tell he was experienced and loves what he does. What we got: Milk Bread - 100/10.... I could've eaten the whole thing myself. I would love to get ahold of this recipe... and the homemade butter. Oysters - 10/10 I was reluctant because of the past reviews, but they were outstanding. Some of the best oysters I've ever had in my life. Had a Bloody Mary seasoning. Chicken wing special - 100/10 wow and wow. I could've also eaten all six of these by myself. I held back ordering a second round. Tomahawk steak - 10/10 the flavor on this was unlike anything I have ever tasted before. Perfectly cooked and worth the price. The creamed spinach side that comes with the steak was also glorious. The potatoes that came with it were not my favorite, but they did the job. Cabbage special - 100/10 this may have been my favorite thing we ate all night. Unfortunately, the portion was not that big and I really wish there were more for the price. . It was outstanding. Panna cotta dessert - 8/10 I'm not a big dessert person so this was nice because it was not overly sweet and very light. The overall experience was wonderful. It was relaxed, we did not feel rushed. Atmosphere 10 out of 10. Service 10 out of 10. Food 9.999 out of 10. Steep price tag, but it was well worth it and we can't wait to come back when we visit again next year.

Gonna lead with this, this was easily one of my top 3 BBQ experiences in the state of North…read moreCarolina, and it would fight hard for 1st overall. For now, we'll call it a tie, because i actually did not have any pulled pork while here (went more on the Texas side of things) so it can't be an apples to apples comparison. OK, I had heard from so many people over time how great the BBQ here is, and just never really had the occasion to be in Salisbury at the right time to have a meal. It just never seemed to time out right. Well, I was going to a show at the Salisbury theatre to see a family member perform, and we decided to go early and have dinner her prior... MAN. WOW. How glad am I what we did that? Getting there about 6 we just barely beat the dinner rush on a Friday night. About 10 minutes later there was a line for tables. Place was pretty big and clean, parking would clearly be an issue at peak times though, and it looked like it was when we left. Our server was young but attentive, even offering us a sample of baked beans when we were being indecisive on sides. The tea here is excellent, as a southern BBQ place ought to be. For the food, I'm just gonna run it down list style: Brisket - A - Tender, solid smokey flavor, juicy, fat was rendered to a butter consistency. Only had better at Terry Black's in Austin TX. Sausage - A - Hearty smoke flavor, nice spices, nothing overpowering. Went well with a mustard sauce. Pork ribs - A+ - Succulent, gently pull right off the bone, well trimmed, offered wet or dry. Best ribs I have had in quite awhile. Mac N Cheese - A+ - Best I have had lately. Lot of effort put in, cheese rue was made, and then baked. Best of both world, crispy brown cheese on top, would be hard to beat. Cornbread - A+ - Best cornbread I have had in years. Moist, slight sweetness, pulls apart like cake, no need for butter. Sweet Potato Casserole - A+ - Tastes just like my wife's. She was with me and agreed. Lots of crispy pecan and brown sugar bark throughout, creamy sweet potato. Fried Okra - B+ - They're definitely breading and frying it themselves is the plus, but a bit bland on its own. Was really good in the ranch. Broccoli salad - B+ - A little runny, but overall quite enjoyable and a solid change up to the hearty sides. Corn pudding - A- - Excellent flavor, truly, but very runny. That said, it didn't both us much, just use a spoon! Hush puppies - C - The only thing that didn't stand out, and honestly, that's OK. In the future, we will both opt for cornbread because it was just so so good, that the pupps could not compete. All in all. This was a 6 star experience. The prices would be considered high if they were not so generous with their portions on everything, and if the food were not this tasty. We had enough left over for a 2nd meal (and even re-heated, everything was great). The truth for us now, is that we will probably make the 45 minute trip from Greensboro specifically to eat here every now and then, even with excellent options near us. GREAT JOB.

THE GOOD - the portions are gigantic, so for the things you…read morelike, you'll get a lot - the sweet potato casserole is great and like dessert -the potato salad has good flavor. I was worried from the pictures it'd be too mayonnaise heavy, but it's got a little zing to it. -cornbread is moist with good flavor -the sell a plate of sides for people like me who love sides -Mac and cheese was good THE OK -green beans are fine. The group was torn on if they were ok or bad. -chicken nachos were pretty good. The portion is huge, but all the chips at the bottom were dry -the collard greens were not the style I like, but they were tender with a smoky flavor THE NOT GOOD - shockingly, the brisket was over salted, which is tough to do. It was terrible. -the pulled pork was the worst my husband ever had. He couldn't finish it. -the hush puppies were dry From our experience, I'd come for some sides and skip the meat. TL;DR The sweet potato casserole and cornbread are stellar; skip the meat

David, our server, was phenomenal - but that only added to the great meal, the incredible ambiance and the sensation that YOU were the only ones that matter. Often, aside from the food, I'll take time to ponder the flatware for service, the table settings and the overall condition of the environment for dining. Despite the fact the rooftop restaurant has been open for 6 years, the place is impeccably decorated, the stemware, the flatware - EVERY DETAILS look as though it was just opened - brand new - just for you. We could have been celebrating most anything - but do this - Celebrate THEIR success at serving YOU. GO and dine at the rooftop restaurant at RH Charlotte - you won't be disappointed!
