MIKE ANDERSON'S - PHOTO BY FRANK SEALES // SOUTHERN DIGEST
Mike Anderson’s Seafood Restaurantand Oyster Bar has a reputation for great service and even better food.
When dining at Mike Anderson’s youare initially pleased by the sights and smell of their wonderfulpresentation.
This pleasure will soon pass afteryou are greeted by a wait staff that seems disinterested in giving the superiorcustomer service that customers have heard so much about.
Both the slow service and lack ofattention can leave the diner wanting to hurry up the process of getting towhat they hope is a delicious meal.
When reviewing the menu, patronswill find a variety of seafood and steak platters with Mike Anderson’s specialtoppings made from sauces and seafood, which can add a very distinct taste tothe meat.
The seafood lacked the type ofseasoning that we expect from a Louisiana seafood establishment. The most passionate seafood lovers mayfind that Mike Anderson’s lives up to its reputation, but for the diningexperience can leave you with a bad taste in your mouth.
Opened for bothlunch and dinner those that wish to taste the great Mike Anderson myth, stop byand see David, the general manager and tell him the Digest sent you.
Memphis Barbeque hopes to obtain areputation for greatness with their friendly waiters and management that areeager to make you feel welcomed.
Their location inside the EmbassySuites only adds to the ambience, there is an oasis setting that includes a Koipond and live foliage.
If you ever had questions about thelimits of what can be barbequed Memphis will tell you anything from wingettesto burritos. From their pulled pork to the chicken all meats were well seasonedand very tender. While their ribswere not quite as “wet” as advertised the large portions and waitresses likeShannon made up for that lack of sauce. Memphis can be the perfect place to mix an overnight stay with a nice meal.
Or you can also enjoy good barbequewith a large group of friends in their banquet facilities. So if you are looking for sweet tea and”wet” meat they encourage you to come by and seem them.
