Town Docks Yucch
We went there last week with a friend fom Florida enjoying his first time here. We took him to Town Docks because it had been good in the past. The boat ride there was fantastic but the whole town docks experience was really terrible, to wit:
1. We had a hassle with two guys about our place in line and eligibility for the next table- My wife is handicapped and they tried to cut in front but fortunately my son is a powerful guy and he changed their behavior without getting physical
2. After seating it was more than 20 minutes before a waitress showed up. The ambience is wonderful but I would have enjoyed it more with a drink and some attention
3. Another 20 minutes for drinks and then when served the beer and wine were warm, and the topper of the toppers was a watered down, lukewarm martini in a plastic glass with a slice of LIME. I have had martinis on 3 continents and this was without the worst ever. I have never even hear of martini with a slice of lime. Truly insipid.
4. Food: It might have been passable if it was warm but it wasn't and it wasn't.
We have been there before and did not go there expecting gourmet food and first class service, but we did expect reasonable service and warm but average food.
Everything else Alex Ray does is first class so I guess he is not paying attention here. Hope it improves because the ambience is truly world class.
