    I ate here for multiple birthday parties at one time. We were in the party room with 34 people and…read moreit was very cramped and the AC was not really working. The thermostat was set on 50, but it was 81 in the room with no air flow. The rest of the restaurant was comfortable, but it was not in the party room. We also had one waitress for all 34 people, so getting drink refills were a challenge, but she did the best she could, so kudos to the waitress. I had the fried combo with fried catfish, fried shrimp, and the Cajun fries. I thought my food was pretty good. I tried some of my son's seafood boil he had and it was not too bad, but I've had better. I'm not sure if I'll go back, especially if we're in the party room.

We were promptly and professionally greeted and seated. Being our first time, we were never made to feel rushed making a decision on what we wanted to order. Once we did order, our food arrived very promptly and super hot off the stove. Everything was very tasty and seasoned just as I ordered. The shrimp was fresh and the sausage was delicious. Our whole meal was delicious. I ordered an extra to-go boil variety for my son. He stated his to-go order was very good and generous portions. All wait staff we encountered was professional and nice. I am glad I decided to give it a try and form my own opinions. I will be a return customer.

    The hubs and I had a nice time at Fins last night for his birthday! I'm so happy Fins is enjoying a…read moresoft opening and did not sustain any damage in the EF 1 tornado on 12/28/24, although the beautiful historic pecan tree adjacent to their building was uprooted (sigh!). The restaurant was very clean, the staff were extremely accommodating and helpful, and the food was served quickly! Our server was Amanda, and she was friendly, ensured she got answers to our questions and was really kind! Hubs and I split a half dozen oysters on the half shell which were really good! They were served with lemon quarters, saltines (out of their wrappers), horseradish sauce (light on the horseradish), and a really delightful Mignonette sauce! I was busy taking photographs and hubs ordered the Mahi Mahi tacos for each of us. The French fries were delicious! Amanda was kind to ask for and bring us some ketchup. Again - great fries! Hubs really enjoyed the Mahi tacos!!! I did not like them. I expected a flaky, flavorful white fish and this tasted like seasoned overcooked chicken slices reminiscent of Budding's deli meats. Relooking at the menu they don't offer a chicken taco. Anyway, the avocado slices were fresh and good, although I scraped off some white sprinkles that were all over the tacos and I'm not sure what they were. A happy birthday boy was my main concern for this outing, and I look forward to returning to Fins UP! There's a lot of potential here with the bright open space, nice music and cute bar/seafood display area! Not to mention motivated kind staff willing to get questions answered and happy to serve! A couple of suggestions I have is: 1. top off all your salt/pepper shakers that are on each table. This is simple side work and should be part of each shift's closing/opening processes. It indicates apathy when I see half filled salt/pepper shakers. 2. use your pre-shift "tag-up" meetings to inform your staff about the types of oysters you are serving. There's a big difference between describing oysters as "Gulf Coast" versus "Murder Point Oysters" that are raised in baskets in the open waters of the bay, just west of Bayou La Batre, AL and are available year-round or serving "Sweet Jesus Oysters" that are grown in Hog Neck Creek, that offer a buttery flavor with celery notes and are available year-round. I make this distinction because if Fins UP were to serve either of these oysters, I would be beyond excited because it is rare to see them in north AL restaurants and serving them would set them apart! 3. sell some merch! The "get shucked" t-shirts would be fun to buy! I have one from a Palm Bay, FL restaurant at which I dined. I look forward to a glass of wine (when they get their liquor license, which I assume they will since "Bar" is in their name) and a half dozen Murder Points or Sweet Jesus' soon!

    I tried the seafood boil tonight. My first indication that it was not going to be legit was that it…read morewas not in a boil bag but a styrofoam container I was so disappointed. It was a tasteless hard potatoes mess. The egg was not seasoned with the rest of the boil. I specifically asked for crab legs (which is an up charge). How is crab an up charge. But they did not add to my order I was excited when I saw clam, but they were chewy. I did call and spoke with someone who said she was "the manager" who did say I could come back and get something else but why would I? Hopefully to go orders are not their thing and it's better
