Oak Grove Fish House — Restaurant in Lexington

I've given this a lot of thought but I can't keep my experience at this restaurant quiet. I hate to think others will spend their money on a tasteless meal like my husband and I did. We were given hushpuppies to start our meal and they were delicious. I couldn't wait for my shrimp hoping they'd be just as good but I was dead wrong. I ordered the large shrimp dinner with fries, my husband got the calabash shrimp with fries. The fries tasted greasy and you could tell they were from frozen, not fresh. I can get better fries from the frozen section at Walmart. The shrimp, both mine and my husband's were TASTELESS. When I say tasteless, I mean it. We mentioned this to the waitress who asked if we wanted something else but we figured if this is how they fry then everything will be equally tastless. So we kept our meals but it seemed the more we ate the worse it got. The breading tasted like fried plain flour, no seasoning whatsoever. So we decided to peel off the breading and eat the shrimp on it's own but that was no better. The shrimp didn't even taste like shrimp. They totally lacked any flavor. I don't know what was done to the shrimp but they were void of ANY flavor. I tried putting salt and pepper on them but they only tasted like salt and pepper. They were cooked well but NO FLAVOR...NONE. They were honestly the worst shrimp I have ever had. The waitress told the manager and the manager took off less than $3 off of our bill and suggested grilled for our next visit and that she would deduct 1 of our 2 plates off the bill when we return. We truly appreciate the efforts of our waitress, she seemed truly sorry and embarrassed about it although it was absolutely not her fault. Thanks for the small deduction on our bill but it will be a long time, if ever, until we return. If you really want customers to return and be happy, please fix the issue. No one likes to pay for a nasty,...

I was pretty disappointed with the whole experience.i know you guys just opened but please read your reviews and make your changes. It seems like the nicest people there were the door men. The hostess was not friendly and never smiled. She made you feel like it was a burden to put you on a wait list. Our waitress was okay, not very welcoming but took our orders correctly and got our stuff out as fast as the kitchen could make it. So you get "complimentary" hush puppies with your table. How can you justify giving out 5 grease pocket filled hush puppies to a four top table? Shouldnt there have at least been 8 of them so we could have all gotten more than just a taste? Two of us ordered a side salad with our meals, the salad consisted of wet lettuce, 2 slices of tomato, and 2 thin slices of cucumber. No cheese, no carrot, no crouton and no offer of crackers. You would think for the price of the food that it would actually be bountiful, but I will admit that the sad tiny salad was actually the best part of my entire meal. Two of us who LOVE the blue Marlins shrimp and grits ordered them, the other two of our party ordered the "pick 3" which both people chose flounder, shrimp, and oysters. When our food came out the disappointment continued. The 2 bowls of shrimp and grits were absolutely horrid and luke warm. The two platters both had the tiniest little flounder filet, 3 tiny tiny shrimp, and 3 absolutely disgusting oysters that were filled with days old grease. All in all it was not a pleasant experience by any means. The price you charge should equate to a big amount of delicious food. Instead we paid lots of money for cold, greasy, small amounts of food with bad service to boot. I hope you make some serious changes in the next few weeks. Get rid of the high school kids with bad attitudes, bring in some new cooks, add to your menu, and rethink your...
