Shadwell Restaurants

I am staying at a hotel just down the street from this place. I have had at least 6 meals there this week. All of them were excellent!!!! The staff was courteous. They do get a little busy around lunch time but the staff does well to keep up and the owner pitches in to help. The drink prices were outstanding compared to the ones at our hotel. I asked them to make me a drink that few places know how to make. The bartender made it perfect for me.

Absolutely awful experience. The place was absolutely filthy. They were very proud of being part of restaurant week but had only half of the food that was available on the menu. When placing orders for she crab soup we were told and i quote "there is only one cup left, you can order something else and fight over this one". Bathrooms were unkept and out of toiletries. The only reason that this is known is that one of our party members became ill from the food. The food was under cooked. I have never seen slimy fried oysters in my life. Creme brulee that had a consistently of cottage cheese. The bugs landing on the table and the prepared food was horrid. When swating a fruit fly from a booth devider dust erupted in a cloud covering the entire table. Service... well there was none. My party was there for almost 2 hours and saw a waitress a total of 5 times. We were told that they were extremely busy, as we were 1 of 3 tables. When we asked to speak to the manager about the food we were thrown out. The reason was that we created a disturbance. This is very embarrassing to me as i am a corperate service manager myself, and have never been told to leave an establishment in my life. After being thrown out the manager came out of the front door threatening to call the police if the bill was not paid in full. As I am not one to create a disturbance I paid the bill and tried yet again to talk with the manager but this fell on deaf ears. If you think about eating in this area I would give this establishment I wide berth and save your money. You can find better food and service close by at a fast food resteraunt or even a gas station
