Crab was so dirty green stuff inside & dirty on outside. It wasn't cleaned all sauces was disgusting. The shrimp and the drink was the best thing. It was only about 6 people inside the place and the food took over an hour. Customer service was bad. She didn't bring bread nor did she refill our drinks. I will never return here again. A waste of $70 & I only got 1 platter & two drinks.

5 out of 5 Bear Paws Incredible service this time...we went with the lobster tail, salmon and shrimp and it was great. Long Island Ice Tea and Bahama Mama where perfect.

Although it's been years since I've been to a Red Lobster, I was excited for tonight's dinner. With that being said, I won't be back again. I started off by unwrapping my silverware only to discover two dirty forks and a dirty knife. It instantly killed my vibe, but quite frankly my fault as I keep telling myself to bring my own flatware to restaurants. I then ordered the lobster bisque soup for an appetizer- First, the soup came with a spoon and lo and behold DIRTY! There was a dry piece of food (red) that was blatantly visible so I don't understand why the staff didn't catch this before bringing me the plate. I kindly asked for plastic flatware and they obliged. Second, as I started to lightly sift through my soup, I realized there were no chunks of lobster so my husband asked the waitress if there was any lobster meat in the soup and she said that unfortunately decisions were made to remove actual lobster meat from the soup due to how expensive it is and that it is only "lobster flavored". Quite disappointing seeing as the menu described it as "lobster bisque" not "lobster-flavored bisque". I find that to be quite misleading and as my grandpa said, "tacky". Luckily I immediately handed the soup back to the waitress and the soup was not added to the bill. I ordered the fish and chips for my main entree and it was okay. It's just that nothing that evening exuded freshness. The biscuits were the only item on point.

Wait staff is friendly. No wait at the door at all. Lobster mashed potatoes are absolutely amazing. Cheddar biscuits are awesome too.

I was staying near Waco for a few days, but the area I was in had very limited choices for food. So, I looked up some nearby restaurants in Waco, and found Cajun Craft. It was worth the drive in from where I was staying. From the outside, it doesn't look like much: small parking lot, rusted roof, etc. However, I have found that often conceals some of the best places. An immediate friendly greeting was offered at the door and I was surprised by the quaint setting. There were only a few tables near the bar, but there was a covered patio attached and even more seating outside. The menu offered most of the traditional Cajun dishes at a modest price, but I already knew what I wanted. I ordered the Atchafalaya Catfish, a catfish filet over a bed of rice smothered in crawfish Étouffée. It was amazing. The Étouffée was rich and hearty, with the perfect spice level, maybe the best I have had west of Baton Rouge. The catfish was crisp and golden, giving a great balance to the creamy Étouffée. If you are ever in the Waco area and have a craving for some authentic Cajun cuisine, you must give Cajun Crafts a visit.

We dropped in to Black Bear before going to the movies night. Unfortunately, we were disappointed…read morewith the level of service and quality of this fairly new Waco restaurant. I reviewed BBD a year ago for the first time after their initial opening and gave them high marks. Like so many places, though, BBD has not maintained the quality of their grand opening. My wife's broccoli and cheese soup was obviously a mix with very little broccoli, very little cheese, and bland. The tomatoes on my house salad were bad probably old. The corn muffins we received were cold and dense and probably straight from the cooler. Our waitress brought our food then didn't come back until we flagged her down to get our check. She was covering about 5 tables and spent most of her time in the kitchen. A runner brought our food out. It seems that Black Bear is going through that inevitable drop in quality that comes with an inability to sustain continuity in their kitchen and wait staff. Hopefully they will work through this problem and return to the quality we are have come to expect over the last year.

Saturday / Sunday back to back visits. Saturday order…read moreChicken Fried Steak with white gravy sides mashed potato and green beans with a salad and muffin which was freshly made, and tasty. Server was highly engaged, she made sure to stand in front of me providing eye contact when communicating. Sunday order was the Meatloaf with brown gravy sides mashed potato and onion rings with salad and muffin. Meatloaf and brown gravy tasted like it had been made early in the week, and was cold / congealed and had an unpleasant texture. Onion rings were hot and fresh. Server had to be reminded to bring the cornbread muffin and utensils. Server was pleasant but seemed distracted. As for my dinning partners, the had they Reuben that was generous with meat, and a Breakfast spread of Eggs, Blueberry Pancakes, and Pattie Sausage that looked good. It's a nice space, with Black Bear decorations, and memorabilia, but I would stick to food items that need to be freshly made and avoid selections typically found at a carving station.
