Shoreside Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Forest Lake

Went for there Crablegs on a Wednesday started at 3:00 pm we got there early they put my order in at 2:50 pm they said. got my first plate at about 3:15 they come in 3 clusters on a plate at a time you get a 1/2 a Cobb a corn and wedge potatoes with seasoning and small sourdough dough bread. The corn was soggy the first order of crab legs were cold and the butter tasted terrible had to wait 3 to 4 minutes for my next plate she never would take the full pail of crableg waste unless we put it right under her nose.I had about 8 separate orders of crablegs. My wife had there fish & chips which she liked and had a coke and a side salad which had no tomatoes in it and the coke tasted funny she said and we were fighting off flies all the time we were there. There were only about 10 customers there at the time so we thought the waitress was kinda slow we seen her standing around talking a couple times. We were there about 2 hrs. And 1/2 hour of that was spent just waiting for my next order of crablegs. $39.00 for crablegs ain’t bad but a lot of them were pretty small. I think they should switch to a buffet having to wait an average of 3 minutes to get your next order of legs...

My coworkers and I made a reservation at 5:30. Took close to an hour to get our crabs and we each only got 2 clusters. After finishing the 2 clusters, there was a lot of sitting around for a good 15-25 minutes just waiting for the next refill and each refill was just 1 crab cluster per person. We asked our server if we could please get more clusters per order or multiple orders put in but we were told no. The kitchen makes customers wait at least 5 minutes before putting in an order but we weren't getting our 1 cluster until a good 15 up to 25 minutes after finishing the 1 cluster we had. It was not busy at all and not a lot of customers that night. We left close to 8 and definitely not on full stomachs. A lot of us went home and ate at home. Sad to say but go buy crab clusters at Cub or Walmart and boil at home. Save yourself the time and money. It is not all-you-can-eat. It is pay them and wait hours to even eat your fill so they get the most profit. You are limited to 2 initial clusters then 1 cluster every 15-25 minutes until you're tired of waiting...

Just tried this place out and it’s not worth the visit! 75 cent wing special avoid at all costs! ours came out hard as a rock and the chicken was black, kid got a cheeseburger and it was comparable to a Costco frozen special no flavor or taste and the fries were cold and crunchy. Waitress checked up on us and asked how it was so I was honest and said pretty bad, we each had a few bites and pushed the plates aside, she then said she would talk to a mgr and get back to us. After waiting around for 25 minutes she came back and said they took 50% off but the total was still 34$ not sure how that’s possible seeing how the 24 wings should have been $18 and the burger is $14… 32$ plus two sodas guessing $5 each for a total of $42 didn’t dispute it just wanted out of there but can’t see this place staying around for long as the quality of food is very poor the service is slow and management doesn’t seem to care or put in an effort to come check on us after the waitress told me multiple times she would be over. Place is gross and dirty and the...
