THE WORST PLACE IN RIVERSIDE TO EAT! THEY GAVE ME FOOD POISONING! i'VE BEEN SICK ALL NIGHT AND ALL THIS MORNING!
If you do NOT want to have a good time, PLEASE feel free to sit and eat that this poor excuse for a restaurant.
Our group consist of 4 adults and 1 child. We were very excited to try something new, as we always do. We arrived at 7:30PM to this god forsaken place and a waiter walked by and told us it would be about a 40 minute wait to be seated and that they are extremely busy. I looked around. There were a whole row of empty tables. I didn't say anything and we just waited.
Then a hostess came up to us and said, I'm sorry we couldn't seat you, the cook is backed up in the kitchen it may be another 20 min wait. WTH!
Anyways, finally we got seated. WE SAT THERE FOR 20 MINS AND WEREN'T EVEN GIVEN MENUS!! Then a waiter walked by after all that time and asked us if we've been helped.
On to the food..
We ordered fried oysters. THEY WERE SPOILED! I cut that thing in half and oyster inside looked like MUD! ABOUT 20 SOMETHING DOLLARS
Voo Doo wings.. with Parmesan fries.. good, but who couldn't microwave chicken wings. Hot on the outside, cold on the inside. AROUND 12 DOLLARS
EXTRA SIDE OF FRENCH FRIES PROBABLY 10 DOLLARS.. because they had to actually be fried and NOT MICROWAVED.
We wanted to order the Calamari. The waiter JOKED that they were out. We laughed and he took our order, came back and said. Sorry we are out of the Calamari BECAUSE ITS STILL FROZEN. OMG.... whatever.
It took 40 mins for our appetizers and by the time our food came we have finished every single last bit of french fries and everything else including our drinks! We were starving
I ordered chicken something, with penne pasta with an Alfredo sauce. The waiter recommended it to me, I thought it sounded good.. BUT that's not what i got. I got something LIKE THAT. Instead of chicken, I got sausages. Wheres the chicken?? MUST BE because the sausages heated up better in the microwave. I didn't say anything about my plate because one of my friends ordered the Pasta Jambalaya and her SHRIMP WASN'T EVEN COOKED, I told my friend to just pick that shrimp out and eat the rest.., she forked another shrimp and found that ALL OF THE SHRIMPS WEREN'T COOKED THOROUGHLY! I took a bite of my food and it was nice and hot on top, then I decided to mix everything together and I took another bite and some of the pasta and sauce was COLD! I HAD a STOMACH ACHE right at that point. GROSS!
-COLD, UNCOOKED SHRIMP OVER A BED OF COLD PASTA WITH SAUCE, COST about $17.99
-CHICKEN THINGY BUT GOT SAUSAGES OVER HOT PASTA ON TOP BUT COLD ON THE BOTTOM OVER $15.99 (who knows how much they charged for waiters recommendations.)
My other friend ordered the Shrimp Creole and said it was disgusting and tasted like rice with salsa and had like 2 shrimps (good thing for her, her 2 shrimps were fully cooked).
My other friend ordered the Seafood Boil and asked for butter for her crab legs and the waiter came back with cold butter (unmelted). SHE ASKED FOR BUTTER AND SPECIFICALLY STATED THAT SHE WANTED THE BUTTER FOR HER CRAB LEGS. I'm sorry crab leg shell, because there wasn't even anything in the crab leg itself because it was over microwaved and had a thin strip of crab fat) $21.99
- SHRIMP SCAMPI CREOLE AKA. 2 SHRIMPS AND SALSA OVER RICE ABOUT
AVOID THIS PLACE, UNLESS YOU LIKE TO BE DISAPPOINTED AND ANGRY!
