The walk-ons here in Tampa has really gone downhill over the last year or so- subpar food (imported shrimp, crawfish, etc), limited menu, and less than great service. Wonder if that’s a trend across the board and maybe they’re adjusting to reduced demand?
Sad to hear but not surprising. It wouldn't shock me to see them leave the Florida market completely. Their launch into Florida has essentially completed flopped.
I live in Orlando and I was happy when they announced they were opening here. Opened the I-Drive location in late 2020 (delayed of course due to the pandemic) and then opened the Kissimmee location either late 2021 or early 2022.
The I-Drive location closed in early 2023, essentially making it 2 1/2 years and then the Kissimmee location closed in late 2023, basically only making it around 1 1/2 - 2 years. I know the Pensacola location closed as well and that location didn't make a year.
Like you said the quality was good at first but really started to go downhill late in 2022/early 2023. They stopped having the Mardi Gras Mahi as well as the Crawfish Two-Way Entrees and they were my two favorite entrees. Service really started to go downhill as well.
Both Orlando locations there was no warning they were closing, they both just happened overnight. The Kissimmee location didn't surprise me as much as it never really seemed busy. The I-Drive location did surprise me though as it was pretty steady and very busy during football season. But maybe that was the problem, I could see where weeknights would've probably not been that busy.
But very sad to see them leave the Orlando market completely.
