Mama's Boy Southern Table And Refuge

It is hard to rate something when members of my party have a different opinion than I do! There were three of us. First, I'd like to say that the restaurant itself is very cute! I loved the nautical decor, the bar was nice and the restaurant was clean neat. Our server was friendly. I couldn't decide which wine I wanted, so the bartender came over and gave me a tasting of two wines. It was a good thing because I definitely liked one over the other. For an appetizer, we shared the meat cheese plate. The cheeses were excellent, especially the purple goat cheese! The plate was presented nicely and there was plenty to share. No complaints there. I guess I had the best entree because I found no flaws with it! The crispy duck was absolutely fantastic! It was cooked perfectly and there was a lot of it. It came with a delicious carrot purée. I enjoyed it very much. My husband had the shrimp pappardelle. Although he said it was very tasty, his complaint was that there was too much butter. My daughter had the chicken waffles. The complaint there was that the chicken was too gamey. For a Saturday night, the restaurant was not crowded at all. It's a shame because I think it's worth making a visit and trying out the menu. It's also a great lunch place if you're going to the aquarium, which is right across the street. Conveniently, there's also a parking garage right next door. I say give it a try! If you have kids, there's something on the menu for them too!

I started this review a few weeks ago and did not have enough internet to send it. At a Beach House right now-this was a Friday night. Food, service, drinks-amazing. Our second time here in a week. Wine list is good and the drinks were generous. We had brunch there the previous Sunday. Also very good with attentive service. Would highly recommend.

Cute decor restaurant located in front of aquarium. They have many family customers because of the location. So they have kids menu but server we had was not particularly friendly to my children. As for the taste, it was below average. Everything we ordered was fried. My fried chicken was dried, not juicy. The taste was weird. Waffle doesn't look like they made it right then. Looks like they used frozen waffle. Syrup must have been sitting there for a while because the surface of the syrup got hard. It made me think that they were not serious about food. They were located in nice place so weekends they constantly get family customers. That is it.

We went for Father's Day with no expectations. We were very happy. Gorilla bread, chicken and waffles was perfect and we had fantastic service. I really enjoyed the food. We will def be back. I have 3 kids (7-16-22) and they all loved it!

This restaurant is located in a quaint corner near the aquarium, and it has a lovely setting with inviting decor and ambiance. Unfortunately, the food was a huge disappointment. We arrived around 4 PM and were tempted by the delicious-looking mussels, only to be informed that they were sold out. How could that happen at 4 PM? Everything else we tried was unimpressive and lacked flavor, and the presentation was just as uninspiring.
