    The host was great, however, the server wasn’t. She didn’t check on us to see if we needed anything like refills, etc. The food was very good, though we didn’t have enough utensils. The atmosphere was good.

    Our server was great! The concept of the restaurant is fun. They give you gloves and a bib and put paper over the table ... the seafood is overcooked and the sauce overpowered the flavor of all of it. There was graffiti all over the rest room and no soap in the dispenser. I'm glad we tried it but it was definitely a one and done type situation for us
