    This was the worst meal we have had in Canton - the bread with the appetizer was white bread out of a bag, not focaccia, the risotto tasted like they used dishwater instead of broth, the succotash was apparently out of a can, and the seafood poorly prepared. No acknowledgement of our anniversary, and very overpriced - $150 for two, no alcohol or dessert. Weird to be so bad when Queenies is so good. Perhaps the chef was on vacation, because no one in the kitchen knew what they were doing.

    Our food was not quite as good as it usually is but the staff was gracious and made our experience as good as possible otherwise. We will continue to dine with them in the future.

    We were seated in an undesirable location in the restaurant, party of four, even though we had a reservation. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary. Service was excellent and the food was great.

    We had our usual seafood entries, which were excellent. Our pre-reserved table was ready at the reserved time.

    Nick ALWAYS provides great service at the bar. Our food (appetizer tuna and our main dish, lobster) was perfect. Kudo's to the wait staff and the kitchen.

    Been going to Goin' Coastal for many years. Something has changed. Let me run it down... > The highlight of my meal was the escargot...very good, overpriced and only 6 snails. > Salads used to be very good and plentiful...not anymore. The ingredients were scarce at best. > Ordered redfish with parmesan crust...most of the fish was not cooked. That tells me no one is checking internal temperature...NOT GOOD! > Replaced the redfish with grouper with parmesan crust...it was ok. Got the romoulade sauce my wife did not use and the taste was much better. Had a side of collars...the best. > Even the bread they bring did not seem fresh. I attempted to butter it and it completely fell apart...strange. We'll go back, love the restaurant. Will be a while though.
