Patrick’s — Restaurant in Ocean Springs

Gave this a 1 because 0 wasn’t an option. We stopped in to eat as a group on a Saturday. We asked if it was reservation only and were told no, to come on in...they had plenty of space. There were only two other tables filled in the place. We sat and waited for nearly 1.5 hours for our food. That was fine. We wanted to chat. Halfway into the wait, we were told half our table had to reorder because they ran out of what we ordered. Fine. My friend tried to order steak and was told “oh you don’t want that...you should get this instead”. That instantly made us all nervous as to why they were pushing this one meal on us. She stuck to the steak, and I got the pushed meal...(big mistake...I’ll explain later). The prices were high, but the menu sounded amazing. The food was NOT amazing. Average at best for most. Steak bland and flavorless. Mine, the pushed meal, was awful. No flavor. No seasoning. I expect some shell on occasion with crab, but I ordered crab au gratin. I had GIANT chunks of shell in my casserole like dish (the size of quarters or larger) and choked on one. The sauce was basically butter in bowl thrown on noodles and a little. I was polite and just didn’t eat it. They asked if I wanted something else, but I couldn’t wait another 1.5 hours. I felt sick after eating what I did. It did not taste fresh. The desert was good, but it was not worth my $60 check for a soup and desert being all I could eat. The decor is weird and dated. Then, we waited 45 minutes for them to hand write our 8 checks because they never wrote our meals down. There were at least 4-5 servers, and 3 tables!!!! No idea it would take nearly another hour just to get the check:! They added 20% gratuity for the group which is fine (though the service sucked), and then we noticed they charged 20% gratuity on all the drinks too. When asked she said she made a mistake, but we didn’t have another 45 minutes to wait for her to fix. She also then informed us it was “reservation only, they weren’t expecting us and basically if we wanted better service, we should make a reservation next time.” That was literally our first question when we walked in and that was not their answer!!!! Worst night ever, and I would recommend not going (or making...

What can I say about Patricks!? It was amazing, amazing, and absolutely amazing! We started off with Mint Julips, which we never had before, and we are completely ruined for any other Mint Julip. Then the fried stuffed crab was amazing! It didn't last long enough for me to take a photo, sorry guys. The salad wasn't amazing, the dressing. The blue cheese dressing was homemade....Outstanding! On to the main course, which was ungodly good! The banana foster Sunday with toasted pecans topped it off and set me over the top into gluten. Which I do not regret! I wish I could remember our servers name and give her a shoutout; both of them. They were just as good as the food. After my food coma, their names escaped me(Lill & ???.....just know they were outstanding. Make sure you make reservations, or you will not get in, and you...

Went here while on vacation, we were very disappointed. Service was very slow, food was expensive, very small portions, and honestly not very good. Beyond that, we waited over an hour for our food and then over 45 minutes to get our checks, once we got them they had added a 20% gratuity which included alcohol. The people were mostly friendly until we raised our concerns at which point we were told that it was a reservations only restaurant and they weren't expecting us... Frustrating due to the fact that when we walked in we asked if 1. We were dressed appropriately, and 2. If we needed reservations. They put the table together before our entire group even got in the door so we were very confused. I never complain about restaurants, but this was a really terrible...
