Review - 1/2 *

This evening we chose to dine at an eatery on the square. I had once tasted a dish from there as a to-go item and it was yummy. Unfortunately our adventure there this evening was quite unpleasant, although the company ( my wonderful husband) was supreme. When we arrived it was past the dinner hour but not uncommonly late by any means. As we were seated there were several other couples in the establishment also. Asked what kind of drinks we would like I inquired about my favorite addiction of choice and was told that yes it was served. Michael ordered a root beer. Our waitress reappeared stating that they had not got the order in for Dr. Pepper but suggested several times I should have a coke. I chose lemonade.
The evening proceeded to get worse from there. We inquired about the crab dip appetizer, she said they might be out but would go check. OH! they had just made some for tomorrow so she could heat it up for us. Every single thing I asked to order they were out of. It was a new menu she said and they didn't know fish tacos would be so popular. I didn't want fish tacos, I wanted the Mahi Mahi, no option there! We finally decided just to have the crab dip which was to come with an assortment of lovely crackers and vegetables and our drinks. We would eat that and go else where for the rest of dinner.
The beginning of our meal arrived.
The lovely assortment was Ritz crackers dumped on the side with some celery sticks. By this time a good 1/2 hour had past and we were slightly hungry. Michael thought the garnish tasted good.
As we were consuming our crab dip which was a little on the cold side for just being heated up, the waitress decided to open the front door. Ourselves and the other couple next to us were slowly (ok not so slow) being froze out of the place so they could shut down for the evening we suppose.
Grand total for 2 drinks , 12 Ritz crackers, 8 celery sticks and 1 cup crab dip $14. (oh and 6 pieces of garnish)
ACME FISH CO gets only half of a star! I will never go there again.
