I probably wouldn't go there, but there online recipes look pretty
inviting. But like one commenter gave the impression that the place is
pretty pricy.

Well, Greg gives it a thumbs down, but Harry gives it a thumbs up.

Who does one trust the most?

Guess I'd stay well away from the place. A decent catfish place would be much better.


Decided to forgo Bubba's in favor of Hyman's. Look for my autographed
photo on the wall at Hyman's next time you visit Charleston.

I had broiled Sword, scallops, and shrimp which were OK but IMHO the
place was over rated.

We had a great meal in downtown Charleston about 6 years ago. A bit
on the pricey side but well worth it.

Thanks Wayne. I'll save the link in case we plan another meal in town.

I'm telling you, you missed out if you didn't go over to The Wreck!

I LOVE eating at this place!

OK You don't need to twist my arm. If I cross that big bridge again,

Went to Bubba Gump in Breckenridge CA,
It was Red Lobster with expensive souvenirs you could buy

-----------------------------------------------
There is a Breckenridge, CA. But probably not a Bubba Gump there. Most
likely COlorado.
Bubba Gump now owned by Landry's Inc. Same ones who now own Claim Jumpers
who they bought in Bankruptcy. Is a high volume, mid priced eatery. Not a
high quality specialty place. Basically what lots of the chain restaurants
are.
