I used to love Capt. Anderson's but........
I grew up here and I used to love eating at Capt. Anderson's. The last two times I've been (once a year on my birthday) the food has been definately not up to par.
I think part of this is due to that Johnny & Jimmy Patronis are not there much anymore - we didn't see them either time we were there.
Also - I don't think the same head Chef is there any longer.
I (used to) love love love their grilled shrimp and I was horrified that I was served previously frozen shrimp.
How do I know? Because I can cook grilled shrimp at home that is an almost dead ringer for their grilled shrimp and if you use a frozen or even flash frozen shrimp they are almost impossible to peel.
My DH hates to complain in any restaurant so I came home and emailed CA's and they never even bothered to reply even though I knew they had opened and read my email.
Even the recipe was different. I had to ask for more seasoning after it arrived at the table as I explained that they "used to be" spicier.
They used to be so consistent in their food and it was always a guaranteed good meal. Now - I would hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
