Last time I went to Don's Seafood I swore I would never return. My mistake---went with the family to have a nice Sunday afternoon meal. Ordered Broiled Seafood Platter and a cup of gumbo. The gumbo came and I was mixing the rice in and noted the shrimp look raw. I looked closer and sure enough the shrimp was not cooked at all---quite disgusting and could have made me sick as was my last visit to Don's. Sent it back and the waiter agreed the shrimp were not cooked. The broiled seafood platter comes out and the seafood was swimming in butter/grease, not sure exactly what the liquid was but it was not what I considered a broiled seafood platter. I asked the waiter if he could go put the plate in the broiler and actually broil the food and maybe absorb some of the liquid. He said they dont use a broiler, they put it on the grill-- It's unfortunate- the atmosphere/layout of the restaurant is very nice, the waiter was attentive however the FOOD IS HORRIBLE! I will never return. Tip to the owner---GET NEW COOKS!

Pros: ATMOSPHERE OF RESTAURANT

Cons: FOOD IS HORRIBLE

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I had a very good waitress she had experience I could tell because she told me that the seafood was out of this world and I took her for it. I had crab cakes and loved them I say that the serves was not lazy she was a woman on a mission to serve those crab cakes and I was there to eat them. I am from out of town and never had crab cakes like Don's that is why I rated them Five Stars. If you ever go to Don's and want a good waitress look for a 5'4 woman did not remember her name but she always was there when I needed her and get the crab cakes they were out of this world!

Dons is now charging a substitution fee if you want the tossed salad that you always got before dinner. Instead the cole-slaw is the restraunts preferred salad. $1.00 for what you always got before. The food is not that good to be charged an extra dollar for something you always got as a part of your meal.

Pros: location -Veterans, Not busy before 5pm, ok parking

Cons: inconsistent food, substitution charges, long wait times
