My husband's aged over cooked birthday steak :(
Teisha V.

Came here with some friends after a event. The service was slow, but the waitress was nice. The room and dinning areas is dark. We asked to move to another table, cleaned it ourselves and had dinner. I ordered fried fish, it was crispy, but it was salty. The loaded back potato was alright, but the cheese never really cold, so never melted. I don't come here too often, but i had good conversation with some awesome ladies for dinner while we were in the restaurant.

Grilled Shrimp,  Hawaiian Chicken, Loaded Baked Idaho Potato, Rice Pilaf

We went to Pelican's for our anniversary. We were not disappointed. The food is always delicious and it's always cooked perfectly. I had the filet with a baked potato and my wife had the Hawaiian chicken with grilled shrimp and baked potato. I wish my grilled shrimp was as delicious as theirs Highly recommend and we will definitely return

We visit pelicans at least once every other week. The food is just that good! My favorite is the scampi, but the salmon is good too. And talk about portions! You receive bread (although I wish they'd choose another bread) with garlic and butter, a soup or salad (the gumbo is DIVINE), and your entree which usually includes a side plus you get to select a second side. It's absolutely phenomenal. Service can be a little iffy, especially when calling in for reservations, but I will chalk that up to how busy the place is. I also know it must be hard to pleasant all the time, although it is important in a customer facing business. I wish they were open on Sundays, but I'm sure they have their reasons - perhaps to give staff a day off, but I can imagine they wouldn't be just as busy that day. Inside gives off ship vibes, which I'm sure is what they're aiming for. Definitely not fine dining in terms of ambiance, but fine dining in terms of food? Absolutely Oh and GET THE CALAMARI. It is delicious when hot

Smoked salmon dip with fresh pita chips

Made a reservation for Thursday evening for my birthday! Arrived a bit before the time checked in and waited about 10mims for a table to clear. The service from Gilberto was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the food and palate's and recommended some great appetizers. We tried the smoked salmon dip and fried mushrooms My dinner was flavorful and seasoned well and the beef kabobs was tender. I enjoyed my French martini and it paired well with my meal!

Perfect house-made fresh cheesecake was perfection!

Michael was an amazing waiter! He went above and beyond to give us a fun and fabulous fine dining experience! The oysters were fresh and cleaned perfectly. I've never had better. My steak was supreme and tender. The lobster was soft and perfect - no butter needed! The honey roasted Brussels sprouts were delicious! Fresh mushrooms that were soft and juicy. All the flavors were delectable!

I came here for a work dinner on a weekday evening. The place is quaint and nice environment. The drinks were okay/standard quality. The appetizers were mid grade. We had seared ahi tuna appetizer that was worth mentioning. The entree was just okay as well. I had ribeye. It was very disappointing especially for the price point. The flavor was sub par. I tried my coworkers catfish and it was also just okay. Nothing worth coming back for. The service was great, our waitress was helpful and accommodating. She seemed like she knew a lot of the regulars there. Overall it's a great place to gather in a small town, but u probably won't be back unless it's a work funded event.

Filet & loaded backed potato with a whiskey sour.
Jean R.

Based on their menu prices and some online photos I thought Pelican's would've been a really good restaurant but I was left a bit disappointed. Upon arriving I noticed they had plenty of parking and that it must've been busy based on the availability of spots. Once inside, it did seem very busy but it's because it's pretty tight up front which is where their bar is. The bar has very little seating but I'm assuming they're better known for their table service. I ordered a whiskey sour which was just made with sour mix and whiskey, I wasn't expecting anything fancy but considering they have pappy's, just using sour mix and a regular cherry and not making it with egg whites is a disservice. The bread provided was as hard as a baseball bat and was more like a long cracker. I had some raw oysters which were pretty tasteless and extra slimy. For my entree I had the filet with a loaded baked potato. The filet was pretty tasty and cooked to the perfect temp but the potato didn't even have the cheese melted. For a place that has $40/$50+ steaks I expected a bit more. Staff was friendly and casual but could've been a bit more attentive.

The most elite restaurant for seafood, but there's choices they give you for steak is better than Texas roadhouse fresh choice steaks.

I know food cost is huge for businesses, and saving or reheating is a necessity, but not every person out here is trying to run a scam and get free foods. This stuff was foul tasting and the odor was really wrong. The lady wouldn't even check the plate I brought up to show her, just immediately tried to shut me down for speaking up. Sorry, this cost you more than food cost this time, it cost you a customer and I will spread the word too. Customer Service 101 this was avoidable, your staff should have caught it before it went to the table. But when they didn't, you should have handled this completely different. Under $3 for a set of sliders. Not worth the loss in my opinion.

At this place was very busy, but the staff was nice and the salad bar was clean. There was still seating available around the room. It was six of us for lunch, but one of us did not get our food until almost all of it was gone. Maybe due to the sunlight shining from the door. After we were almost done I got up, went to the counter and asked have you seen her food for the number and the guy was already walking around still looking and brought it to our table. Everyone's food was fresh and delicious. One of my friends ordered the new sandwich that she thought was ground. Beef was actually black olives and green olives mixed in together. She absolutely hates olives so she had to learn the hard way lol. Jason's Deli is always kind to us when we have to have events here. It is also a great choice for those who would like and healthy option but to also get full. I purchased the strawberry shortcake as well and it was yummy. Definitely recommend popping in and getting something to eat.

Bonus--the 2nd floor has a bar, so it's a whole experience getting up there. The food overall was really good with a few standouts. The deviled eggs were so good--definitely a must-order. My son loved his burger, and my meatloaf was solid comfort food. The mac and cheese was delicious and probably one of my favorites on the table. A few sides were a little hit or miss--the sweet potato casserole was good, the dill potato salad was just okay, and the okra was a bit over fried for my taste. Overall, it's a fun, unique spot with good food and a cool atmosphere. Worth checking out if you're in the area!

I have been coming here for quite a while now. Juan is the absolute best server and has a great…read moreattitude. Last time our group came we realized that the menu prices didn't match the tickets that we received. Wayne gave only 1 of us a $5 coupon. We received our dollar back, so it was not a problem. Our group came back today, saw our favorite waiter Juan who already knows what drinks we like who needs a military discount and what we will order normally. When it was time to go, one of my lady said that her bill was wrong, because it didn't match the menu. I looked at it and realized we just had that issue last month which meant for a month people paying an extra dollar on their meals. Last time we came Wayne said he going to be fixed. So we had four bills that did not match the prices on the menu. I asked Juan to let the manager know since we had already done this dance the last time we got food here, but wasn't worried or agitated, because I was heading out to work. When the manager Wayne comes he hugs and greets one of my friends who he gave the coupon to last time. I was about to leave, but said that the menus don't match the prices again and we already talked about it last time. Even though Wayne has tons of attitude on a regular day, he said that I needed to be Kind like I was a kid!?!? I looked at him I said this is his kind with no loud voices, no frown. If somebody tells you that you need to be nicer to them when they made a mistake and didn't correct it the first time, while people are paying extra per ticket. He was hostile, but made it seem as if i disrespected him. I picked this place for lunch, now I am being mistreated by the manager for pointing out an error. Then he asked me my name, I was paying the bill and was over the altercation. He would not let up and kept telling me that he's having a busy day and how I need to Be KIND.... It wasn't a big deal to me, but he made it one being loud in the Restruant standing over me. I don't really speak to Wayne, because we don't joke the same I am here to eat and leave, but he is a bit extra. I was just telling some friends how I liked the vibe of the restaurant this weekend, I have given some good reviews. Wayne was beyond rude and unprofessional, we all agreed. It came out of no where, we thought he was joking at first as he does a lot, until he kept taking down to me. My group will no longer come here, since you never know how you will be treated. I come in order pay and leave there's not much conversation as I've written in a previous post. My crew and I agreed and informed Wayne after each of us felt he was avoiding the Brown skinned patrons, he would go around the restaurant speaking to everyone except our table multiple times. It has been better, with playful banter the last few months. The salad bar price is rising it started off at $10 w/a big and small plate, but is now $13, but you pay $14 on the receipt and they want to take your tiny plate away, unless you request it. I understand things cost more, so it's fine. Since it's close to where we work and most of us are trying to have healthy options, grabbing a salad for lunch makes good sense. The salad bar is usually clean and fresh. Like I said Juan has amazing customer service and is always super kind and nice to us no matter how busy or crazy it might be in the location. FYI, there is a store at the bottom that is extremely political and can make many people uncomfortable to walk through, if that is not your party. The way that I was treated today was overboard and unacceptable instead of squashing it the manager kept wanting to speak to me as if I was a child when I wasn't speaking to him at all! The only brown table in the room and he kept belittling me saying that I need to be Kind when I wasn't even talking to him and he doesn't know me at all. I have a friend that comes with me that literally yells and screams, but it seems as if he only has an issue with those he chooses to have an issue with. I have spent quite a bit of money in this restaurant, but I will no longer come again, but will miss Juan. It is unacceptable to be treated in this manner because a customer had to say more than one time that there's an error on the menu and you don't like to take accountability. A dollar isn't much, but they add up. Whatever the price is that you were telling people to pay that's how much the price should be. It may take a moment, but staff should adjust the price at the register to prevent confusion. I was told by 3 of my ladies on Saturday that during the nighttime they get a smaller plate than the daytime for the same price, which would be not worth $14, it if that's the case. I don't eat anything else on the menu, because I I have not found anything else appetizing and fulfilling for the price at this restaurant. I hope and pray no one else has to deal with anyone treating them the way that I was treated today, and will drive a little further to Jason's Deli for the best salad bar in town.

He didn't hover, but did check in on us a few times, and Made sure that everything was perfect. We sat in a booth, and the first thing I noticed, was the music playing. It wasn't loud or distracting, it was actually quite pleasant. The booth was clean, and not cluttered. The silverware was wrapped in a cloth napkin, and the water was served in a glass, instead of the plastic water cups, most places use. Nice touch! My husband ordered the catfish wrap with Cajun fries, and I ordered the Firefly salad. Although I didn't taste my husbands food, he said it was really good. The wrap was stuffed full, and so large, he could only eat half of it. This man never asks for a to-go box, but he did last night! I will definitely recommend the firefly salad. There was a wonderful variety of mixed greens, red onion, tomatoes and bacon, along with 3 good sized chicken strips. The chicken strips were well seasoned, and sooo crispy. But that dressing?!? Oh My Gosh! It is strong on its own, but it was absolutely perfect when mixed in with the salad. This is absolutely a place we will return to!!!
