Locations
My GF and I were going to see a movie, but we wanted to go get something to eat first. We drove around for a bit, and the usual suspects popped up(Applebee's, Olive Garden, etc). We decided to at least look at the menu of this place called Bonefish Grill. It IS more expensive than Olive Garden or Applebee's, but only by about 5-8 bucks. An entrée ranges from 12-20 dollars, but the quality of food is 10x what you'll find somewhere else for that price.
The wait staff was some of the best I've seen, and our waiter appeared like he actually enjoyed his job and not just working for a tip. He was able to give suggestions at the blink of an eye and was confident and doing so. I had a draft beer that I was able to take outside while we waited 30 minutes for our table. After being seated the waiter was there immediately to get drink orders. They have a fairly nice Martini list and decent wine list, so I got a drink to come before my salad. Their Apple Martini was one of the better ones I've ever had, although the price(7 bucks) was a bit much, but to be expected. The house salad was incredible with danish bleu cheese crumbles, and oil and vinegar as the dressing.
I am a big fan of seafood, but they offer a much more sophisticated fare than the typical fried food or platters experience. The waiter sold me on the Chilean Sea Bass, topped with a Lobster Thermidor sauce. It was simply incredible. Excellent texture, taste, and the sauce complimented it very well. I had the Sea Bass with a glass of Ecco Domani Pinot Grigio, and their wine prices were fairly decent(not the total rip off many places are). The only slight grievance I could mention was that their bar was very crowded, and that drink orders could be a tad slow(not as slow as 99% of other places), but slow for an establishment this impressive. Only negative thing I could say about the food, was that my Lobster Thermidor sauce didn't have the most tender Lobster, but that didn't effect the taste, but just the texture.
Pricing was very decent, because the quality and taste of the food was MUCH better than any chain I've been to. My GF was able to eat for just 9 dollars, because she ordered a HUGE appetizer of shrimp that was cooked with a Lime Tomato Garlic sauce and Feta cheese. It was extremely tasty as well, and was very enjoyable. Without any alcoholic drinks it is very possible to eat for under 40 dollars and have an incredible meal and experience. If you have a location in your area, and you like seafood and a good martini, then I suggest you try check place out. It was incredible for the price.
