"We live in the neighborhood and have enjoyed Antica Pizzeria since it opened five years ago, which is in the same shopping complex. So we finally took the time to try something Fishy and support another local restaurant that is being started. The restaurant itself is room, very clean and very welcoming. We had made reservations on OpenTable and it was not necessary because there were not many people there for an early dinner. Now the service is not so good. With only three tables and take out, it was not busy, but with the great open view of the kitchen, our waiter spent most of his time text on his phone back. He didn't exactly ignore anyone and our food came hot, but it was just a really bad look for a restaurant server, even if the business is slow. The food was good. The menu reminds me of Tibby's down on the street, but much smaller, no local seafood (which seemed strange), and without a bar. I had Barramundi and Grits and the fish was moist and the garlic cheese grits quite delicious. My wife got the fish and chips and while her not British fried dough it was a plastered cramper and a generous part of thick fillets. The end of the meal is probably why we don't go back. When the waiter came back, he had a phone card reader for me to sign. Instead of letting it visit for me, he had preset it for a 20% tip and stood and watched me. I didn't want to be an idiot and our bill was under $30, I signed it, but that was just wrong to do that to a girl. I found out we were never booked through OpenTable, so no bonus points. How do you not manage to record the only reservation in an hour (we were the only people who arrived there in our time), but you have enough time to write in the kitchen? You do not honor OpenTable reservation completely and you press me for Pennies in a tip you would have received anyway, I won't come back. PS the OpenTable points have been added after I complained to Yelp."
