Captain Benny's Half Shell - Houston

to finish our business and holiday trip, we had our last meal at Captain benny’s before we drove back to atlanta. I never like gumbo in any form or fashion, but I love their country lovers gumbo. we ate our gumbo before I took a photo. my man had raw oysters and we shared a seafood plate. the personal was five star professionals with great personalities. Do not forget that a cold ipa beer is served in a frozen beaker.

usually when I come here. my eating is always on the spot, but this time it wasn't. the gumbo was watery, the fried fish was slimy. the oysters were on the spot, beautiful a huge one. the service was great, but the food was not, but I will give them a try again.

stopped after a texans game and got fast and fast service. the manager has quickly accommodated us in the terrace. he voted on the outside heaters and made sure that we could see the tvs. the waitress was quick to take our order and quickly with the food. Eat was delicious! the temperature was perfect. we had a good meal here. they have to try the baked oysters. the parks were delicious.

Something is wrong when the digestion container is larger, then the fish and shrimp components. I ordered the combo meal and it is honestly not even children size. Everything is unhurried and immersed in the same bread time. Around 25 soggy French fries, 4 small baked shrimps like things and 2 fish nuggets. Not true. And they have the nerve to charge a togo fee.

be very traditional place where you can get some good Southern food, the portions are huge, the waiter is very friendly and eficient

Usually when I come here. My food is always on the point, but this time it wasn't? The gumbo was watery, the fried fish was slimy. The oysters were on the spot, nice a giant. The service was great, but the food was not, but I will give them a try again....

To finish our Midwest business and vacation trip we had our last meal at Captain Benny's before heading back to Atlanta.

THe staff were five star professionals with great personalities. Don't forget an ice Cold IPA beer served in a frozen mug.

It?s rare that a restaurant earns one star. Even the worst establishments usually have some redeeming qualities. Either a restaurant has to poison me OR strike out on food quality, portion size, service and price to earn that distinction. The appetizer consisted of six medium size shrimp tossed on a plate with a little container of cocktail sauce straight from the bottle. The shrimp were served shelled and tasted like the had been in the walk-in cooler for one day too long. There was no hint of any spices and a lemon wedge was absent. The fish dinner was delivered 30 minutes later. The server had warned me that, since it was broiled. It might be on the small size. There were three fragments of Sysco Wholesale?s finest frozen fish, each one about the size of silver dollar. Anything this small is almost impossible to cook right and these came out overcooked and dried out. Apparently, the restaurant is very generous with the batter if you order the fish fried. The coleslaw was drenched in a vinaigrette dressing?not the creamy sauce that is customary in the south. The French fries were Sysco Wholesale?s finest crinkly cut fries from the 25 lb bag. I did complain about the fish and coleslaw to the manager. He mumbled something about special recipes and inflation, rolled his eyes, and resumed slouching in his chair. I paid the $50 bill for two people and left disappointed and hungry.
