TLDR: Ok experience, may or may not be back. Not exactly overwhelmed.
As promised I am reporting back. First of all the 12 year old loved the experience. I was sort of bummed about it. It didn't meet up to my expectations. I have had far better meals and overall experiences in other places.
Appetizers: Calamari and BBQ shrimp
Drinks: Red wine for the wife, Whiskey on the rocks (2) for me.
Me< Ancho rubbed strip
12 year old< Ancho rubbed strip
15 year old< Whole broiled flounder
Wife< Swordfish.
Desserts: Banana Crème Pie, Upside down bourbon pecan cake and Chocolate soufflé.
Pro's: Service was fantastic, the pacing of dinner was good, banana crème pie and soufflé were very good. The calamari with the olive mix was a neat twist and a pleasant surprise. Snapper was outstanding and the swordfish just met expectations at the minimum level and didn't really overwhelm.
Con's: BBQ Shrimp was overcooked. Strip was disappointing and was not typical of what I expect in a strip. The ancho flavor was fine, the steak was of poor quality. I just know I have had far better strips in the backyard. The upside down cake was ok.

Sorry for your experience. I'm a creature of habit there and always have andouille crusted fish. It's so good. The only thing I've had that you ordered is the bbq shrimp app and they've never been overcooked.
