The meat and cheese was perfect for making sandwiches or just eating with some crackers. Thank you daily harvest for making it possible for our out of town family to serve us in this way during this difficult time!

In short, horrible service experience on two different visits, and the food is not anything to…read moreovercompensate for the lack of decent service. The first time we dined here was in 2017, maybe, during which time the server slung our children's food across the table while setting it down-- french fries can roll off a plate with gusto! It was when the server placed the food back on the plate for the kids to eat as if we didn't all see what had just happened that put us off to coming back here. Fast forward to June 2026, it's a Saturday evening and the place my husband and I wanted to go was packed. We decided to give The Fat Pelican another try. When we walked in, there were only three tables occupied. As we stood there waiting for any signs of life from someone employed by this place, we could feel the stares from a particular table, as if trying to warn us to leave while we still could. But hindsight is always 20/20. A sweaty man emerged from the kitchen and told us we could have a seat wherever we liked. As we looked over the menu, I noted the shrimp plates all indicated (imported), which is pretty odd, being close enough to the gulf, and because our booth was right next to a poster celebrating some Louisiana Shrimp festival. I ordered unsweetened tea, which was more watery than tea, and patiently requested a soda instead, which he forgot about. One of the original 3 tables energetically waived sweaty man down, asking for their check so they could leave. Another quickly followed suit. The third table may have been playing mahjong-- they were clearly content in being out and visiting their friends. When it was our turn for what may have finally been the undivided attention of the server, we ordered. My husband ordered a steak. "We're out of steak"........ I ordered while he reconsidered the menu, really wanting to just abort the whole mission. There is a $1.50 up-charge for the loaded baked potato, which would have not been a big deal, but my husband's "loaded baked potato" was dry. We didn't bother to hunt the sweaty man down to ask for more butter, because we were both pretty frustrated. Because we were looking forward to a place that included dessert with their meal, we absolutely ordered the chocolate fudge cake. Look-- no shade on Duncan Hines or their brownies, but that is clearly what we each paid $8.99 for. You could literally taste the Duncan Hines, which was topped with ice cream and some confusing blue berries. It was a relief to pay out and leave, especially since the indie hits playlist had started its second loop. If you're still reading and wondering.. no one else came in to dine while we were there. There won't be a third time.

Large menu on the wall greets you.. staff were friendly and helpful. They take orders as you enter, give you a receipt and you're free to sit where you like. We ordered a large grilled shrimp salad and a Coney dog. Both came fairly quickly. Our orders were the large number on the top of our receipt, therefore so not throw away your receipt. My warm salad was actually really good. I was expecting cool grilled shrimp but it seems they grill when ordered. Very generous with shrimp. Yum The Coney dog was delicious, warm, saucy and very satisfying.

Instead of cook telling me they were out of bow tie they just mixed a couple different noodles together. The cashier told me my shrimp will be cooked because they were out of shrimp. Some of my shrimps were overcooked and old and a few were undercook. My onion and mushrooms were burnt. I called fasta at 8:07 pm cause I was up the road. I was willing to bring the order back why they were cleaning building. I understood that they were closed. Just wanted to return food. I could have got my refund in the am. The manager said because they were closed that was out of her scope and she couldn't accept food back tonight. I proceeded to asked her what was the chain of command when something like this happened, she told me she didn't know and will have to contact store manager . In my opinion the staff are nice and friendly. But with that same smile they know how to lie and sell you anything. And that really scare me. Honesty will give a customer a chance to change they order why they still in store. Why lie like you have an item or cooking fresh items when you know it's a lie.
