"So we stopped to eat here on a whim as I do while on vacation. Was no wait to be seated and the waiter was friendly and did a great job. The place is clean for as busy it is and really quick with the food. We started with the run across America sampler it was served quick but the chicken was dry and cold was seasoned ok but chewy. The chips and artichoke dip were really bad asthe dip was dry and over cooked. Almost like it was under a heat lamp for way to long. Not enough cream cheese in it to make itreally a dip but a paste like concrete. The shrimp was good and the hush puppies were good. We got our plates I had the fishand chips. The fish on top of the fries were hot but we 're 75% batter and had no flavor at all. The fries were good and seasonedwell but we 're as cold as my ex wife 's heart. They were a little greasy as they were cooked way to long as the fish was dry andjerky like. My wife had the Jenny 's surf and surf and was sadder than when Jenny died in the movie. The salmon was dry but hada good grill marks and flavor. The shrimp that came with it was rubbery and over cooked barely eatable and the lobster buttersauce was non-existent. The only two things that I enjoyed was the drinks the lava flow drink my wife ordered was good as wellas the strawberry mango chiller I had. I would not visit this establishment again as there are way to many places in the area toget food that 's way better. They need to train the staff better and fire the back of the house manager. Letting food of thisquality leave the kitchen is an embarrassment to the brand. They truly need to audit the restaurant for quality control."

"Forrest Gump is one of my all time favorite movies and I have not eaten at Bubba Gump Shrimp until now! I was so hoping to put it on the shelf right next to the movie and IT DIDN’T HAPPEN by a long shot! The restaurant and atmosphere is nice and everything about the movie is everywhere which is cool. Now, this is where this restaurant in particular gets a 1! I am hoping that this particular restaurant is an abnormality but everyone else can speak to that. I can only speak to this restaurant. First off, the food was average, so not bad but not anything to write home about. The Bourbon St. Mahi Mahi Shrimp Combo was a disaster! The portion size for a $23.99 meal is absolutely the worst I have ever had. I found not one but two hairs in my food and the Mahi Mahi was over cooked. Yes, when it rains it pours! We waited for an hour to be seated which is fine but then our waiter took our drink order and we waited another 18 minutes before our drinks came and that was after we asked for them. So, the service was not great and probably the number 2 reason I am rating this restaurant a 1. Then we got our bill and it had a suggested gratuity and I missed the word suggested. Yes, I make mistakes too. I asked the waiter about it and he had no clue it was suggested but that it was part of the bill. Once he returned, he pointed out that it was suggested. Personally, I think a good waiter/waitress would know if it was suggested or not. Anyway, Forrest Gump is still one of my all time favorite movies but Bubba Gump Shrimp is not! At least this location!"
