I did a Google search for restaurants in the area, and Coconut Jack’s came up. It looked great on the menu and location.
We went before 6pm as it was the 4th July holiday weekend. We were quite amused at the valet parking and were...happy to hand them our keys to park.
It was already busy, but we managed to get a table outside on the waterfront. Our waitress came over promptly and took our drinks order. Then we chose appetisers and entrées. We had a quick look outside on the boardwalk, and our appetisers were waiting for us. At this point, we began to feel rushed.
When it came to dessert, the waitress did not offer a menu, but said we could get 20% off with the voucher she gave us to get ice cream down the road. I didn’t want ice cream and asked what other desserts there were. The waitress took our order but apologised as she said they were very busy and were trying to encourage customers to eat desserts at the other place.
We were given the check with our desserts and the waitress said she needed to do this.
As she was a lovely waitress, I decided to tip her in cash. It wasn’t her fault that she was rushing us.
And we tipped the valets too.
All in all, we enjoyed our meal. The food was good. However, when you spend a fair amount of money, you don’t expect to be obviously rushed off your table.
For this reason, we won’t return.More
