"Imitation seafood ingredientsI ordered the Seafood Delight for $17.50. The ingredients were listed as being lobster, king crab, shrimp and scallops. There was no lobster in it at all, the king crab was substituted with imitation crab, but at least the shrimp was real shrimp. However, the bay scallops had no scallop taste, an unusual texture and did not have the fibers that are contained in real scallops. The “scallops” did not even meet the quality of imitation scallops that are made from skate; they had a texture more like they were made from surimi which is a fish paste.When I called the restaurant and told her about not having lobster in it, she said they didn’t have any so they included more crab and shrimp. When I told her that it was imitation crab meat she said that she was sorry and would need to change the menu. When I started to tell her about the scallops she said she was too busy to talk but would take my number and call me back. She never returned my phone call.It should be noted that this was not an on-line order. When I called in the order she did not mention that the See Food Delight would not contain lobster or the King Crab. In as much as I want to support small business, it is deceptive to be dishonest about a dish’s ingredients. Unfortunately I paid in cash so that they wouldn’t have to pay the credit card fee, otherwise I would dispute the charge for this dish."
