REVIEWS / Ken's "Juzzt Sayin" - What's Up With Sea Watch? New Decor, New Menu... Pis#@d Off Customers !
 |
| Ken's "Juzzt Sayin" |
... Complained about the salad and actually got attitude from the manager. Amazing. Won't be going back.
... Even the bread was out of a grocery store plastic bag I think. I'll miss the place I used to take my hot dates to 35 years ago.
... The food now is below par. Really bland, boring stuff and still priced like it is fine dining cuisine.
... The portions are minuscule, the selection is very limited and the food is disgusting. The service was also terrible. To top it off the prices are outrageous. ... I've been going to Sea Watch since the mid-70's. Unfortunately we had our last meal there today. I wish I had checked the reviews here before going; it would have saved us $76.

Don’t worry, sugar addicts. Krispy Kreme is also testing a doughnut milkshake on its home turf in North Carolina, meaning that might be coming to your town soon.

I Ate Key West
"As a guest of the Key West Business Guild during their annual Pride Fest last week, I did not object to being introduced to some of the local restaurants that were gay-owned or gay-friendly. I don’t resent the few extra pounds I acquired as a result of this indulgence"
