You know that uncle who seems to have great taste and is so worldly when you're young but them when you get older you see that his smoking jacket is worn and his books are fake? The Waterfront Seafood Grill is a great example of what marketing truly is. Average seafood dishes prepared blandly yet described as somehow worth their outlandish costs. Even with a coupon the total will b l o w your mind. A small portion of the same macaroni and cheese you could find at any pasta joint with a few bits of frozen crabmeat IS NOT worth nearly 20$! A small piece of tuna served on (probably canned) white beans IS NOT worth nearly $40. Apparantly, stuffed shrimp are designed to rip the customer off another $40 for WET BREADCRUMBS. One is inclined to believe that one is on camera for the amusement of the staff. The Baked Alaska, while spectacularly presented and large, is freezer burned, flavorless and covered in toasted whipped egg whites. It's all for show and mostly for either tourists or new money. The piano player, however, is genius. And I do have to give a shout-out to the staff, who are quite well mannered and eager to please. The chefs, I'm sure, do their best, but something is way, way off...
