Wish I had realized that all six of the reviews I read when deciding on this restaurant were 2-10 years old. We walked in 5 minutes after they opened on a weekday, grabbed our own menus and sat ourselves. The prices were a bit high. $15-$20 for most rolls, but I kept an open mind. We ordered calamari and two rolls.
15 minutes later we got a paper food truck plate of over-fried, rubbery, greasy, chopped scraps of "calamari." It was obvious that the inner part was freezer burnt and coated with fresh tempura. Neither my husband, toddlers or I were able to bite through any piece. I wish I had taken a picture because it was a fraternity microwaved leftovers plate being served for $11.50. As I sat wondering what our rolls would be like, I got more irritated thinking about at how they would serve this food to anyone.
After 3 minutes of contemplating, I took the plate to the front and told the waitress/cook that it was inedible. She blamed the company (I assume their supplier.) I calmly told her that I'm sorry, but we wouldn't be paying for it because the fish was old, hard, had no flavor and couldn't be eaten. I told her to cancel the rest of our order because I could not have my family eating such poor quality food and we would be leaving. I also very politely suggested they find a new supplier because there is no excuse for a restaurant on an island to serve old seafood.. She seemed surprised, but could not deny the plate in front of her.
I normally would feel SOOO awful about not paying for food, and this is the first time I have ever left a restaurant because of the horrible quality of a single menu item. I am literally writing this review only to avoid anyone else wasting their time or spending a single dollar here. read more
