Amazing! Blackened scallops are succulent and tender. The ribeye is the best steak don't worry about the special strip steak .. Ask for John he is a Chelsea supporter but is brilliant! IPA all the way.

Lauren Ruben

Brunch buffet was really good. Don (Dawn?) was the best waiter I've had in a really long time. Very friendly staff

Daniel Mascio

The brunch service is amazing with plenty of selection on the buffet and bottomless mimosas (chances are they're filling it before you're even finished).

Stan Smith

They are open - not sure why it says that they are closed on here.

DJ Soltrix

DO NOT BOOK YOUR WEDDING HERE. The staff is rude & the manager, Don, is a complete ASSHOLE! Stay away from this place at all costs! DJs , avoid doing gigs here too. Saving you a headache. Trust me. ????

Apparently Rusty Pelican is booked even though the restaurant and parking lot were empty. Won't be returning !
