    Small plates, especially the mussels, were excellent. The salmon main course was seriously overcooked and the vegetables undercooked . One dissatisfied customer out of four. Too bad because everything else was good. Service was efficient and pleasant but more staff needed to be more responsive.
    Blue Crab Seafood House - Coast Victoria Hotel & Marina by APAResponded 7 days ago
    Hello DavidR, Thank you for sharing your experience with us! I’m thrilled to hear that you loved the small plates, especially the mussels—great choice! However, I’m really sorry to learn that the salmon was overcooked and the veggies were undercooked. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our guests, and I appreciate you letting us know. I’m glad to hear that our service was efficient and pleasant, but I totally understand that having more staff available can make a big difference. We’re always looking for ways to improve, and your insights are super helpful! We’d love to have you back for another meal. I promise we’ll make sure everything is spot on next time! Thanks again for your feedback, and I hope to see you soon!
