Erin LedbetterMay 13, 2012Don't ask Franklin for separate checks. His time is too precious to do that for you and "that would take like 45 minutes."
NickJuly 20, 2013The food was great! Our service was horrible. No smiles, no hellos, no how is your meal. Just, here is your check. Sorry guys, better service would have made for a great experience.
Courtney LowJanuary 24, 2013Ordered a glass a wine but when it arrived it was the wrong 1. Asked for the wine ordered & the server just changed the glass not the wine. How do I know?! Been there done that! Rushed service too!

NMarieAugust 17, 2015Not impressed at all. Part of a dinner party w/set menu to choose from. Salad was horrible, dressing tasted like straight evoo; shrimp weren't clean. Won't ever be back.
Sandra CochraneApril 29, 2010Look for a Red Fish Grill coupon for a free bottle of wine in one of the tourist books.
Lindsey MolstadJune 7, 2011Must have the bread pudding and share. Service was slow and there were smaller portions.
Michael DuntzMarch 24, 2012Make a reservation or don't, you'll still wait an hour for a table in an extremely loud "fancy" restaurant.
Mary KronkowskiNovember 19, 2009If I had to choose one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be RFG's BBQ Oysters!
Steve W.December 6, 2011Food was average. BBQ shrimp entree got you 3 shrimp with heads still on. Nothing more fun than having to peel 3 small shrimp to frustrate an already average meal.
Sheri HendersonDecember 16, 2011Watch out they automatically add their own tip to the bill .... Even for a party of one....
Stepan GvozdikApril 24, 2012Minus 10 for food and service... if i could rate the place I would never give it any awards.... unfortunately...
