    As I’ve been here several times over the years, this was one of the nights where I felt the service was exceptional. We had a large group 15+, and our server handled everything quickly. Even for the ones that showed up late. He took their orders immediately and got drinks and bread without hesitation. I’d also like to commend the kitchen. Everyone’s food came out promptly and hot, and at the same time! A little pet peeve when everyone’s order comes out at different times for a few reasons, but that did not happen here. A couple of reasons for four stars and not 5, because the food was good, but I felt that it was not as heavily seasoned as some of the other locations . I know it’s just a preference , but when it comes to seafood, I prefer it to be seasoned through and through, not just on the top. The other reason, and this may or may not be directly associated with the Pappas company, but when I arrived , as I was exiting the vehicle, I noticed the car right next to me had been broken into. It was very obvious as it was the back windshield. There were two security guards on the premises, and one of them was in direct view of the vehicle. How could you not see the items that were thrown on the ground next to all the broken glass??!!! Like I said, I don’t know if property management hires security, but if they’re hired by Pappas, I’d consider a company with security that is more aware.

    Best birthday lunch ever! Had the Grouper special and seafood gumbo. Absolutely delicious and our server was incredible. Exactly what you would expect from this place. It's a well oiled machine!

    We asked for bread and it taste dry if that makes since. I ordered the salmon and it seemed to me that it didn't have the usual great taste. I love Pappadeaux but lately I believe they have changed the cook or the recipes because I have been to two other Pappadeaux and hasn't been up to the usual excellent food.

    I am a regular here. I love the atmosphere and the food is always good. If I ever have a issue with my food or drinks it is quickly corrected. The one thing I do have an issue with is some of your management staff. I don't know who the young man is that just recently got there about two months ago but he is not to friendly. He has walked passed my table a number of times, made eye contact and has not spoken once. I see him interact with co-workers but never a guest unless it's an issue that needs to be addressed. I feel he needs more coaching to understand that guest desire to feel welcomed because our dining experience is very important. It can make or break a decision to return to your establishment!!!
