    Fantastic space and energy! Great seafood for a great price! The bar area is especially cool. Will come back and check out the back courtyard when it is warmer. Very friendly staff too!

    Love McAdoo’s. Last night was super busy. Our food was delish but took forever to come. And it was noisy!

    Food was great. We had the lobster bisque (an item which tends to bring us back), shrimp & oysters, one of the salmon salads, and the espresso creme Brulee. Food servings were reasonable without being skimpy or larger than necessary. I would have preferred the oysters to be less heavily breaded but still the oysters taste came through and was fine. Our only complaint was the sound level. It was 'energetic' to the point we had trouble hearing the waitress and each other--and this was intended to be a intimate dinner together.

    Wait service in bar and at table were all fantastic. Hostess wasn’t the most pleasant but I’m thinking she was overwhelmed, the place was packed. We ordered calamari and oysters while in the bar, both were fantastic, plus food once we were seated was delicious. All in all, in was great.

    Amazing food and even better service! From the minute we walked in, McAdoos is clean, very welcoming and the entire staff is great. The drinks were made to perfection (try their old fashion) and the food was delicious. We had the grilled oysters, salmon, shrimp and grits (amazing), and cheesecake. If you want a nice night out, it’s a great spot.

    Delicious food. Great service. Nice ambience. Good cocktails. The Mexican shrimp cocktail was delicious, as well as the Chilean sea bass with crab fried rice!

    First time visiting this restaurant. Went there for my parents 51st wedding anniversary. The hostess was kind enough to seat us in one of the side rooms and not main dining area. Our waiter Jim was outstanding. It did get extremely loud when a very large party was seated beside us. So loud we could barely hear each other speaking. The appetizers we ordered : crab cakes, calamari and shrimp cocktail were very good.very expensive but good. My father ordered the ribeye and he was very impressed. My mother ordered the redfish. Which was served on a bed of dirty rice with a sauce. Was not pleasant to look at. Not an appealing appearance and it was cold. They had to take it back to warm it. I ordered the salmon which came with white rice which was not only cold but hard as if only partially cooked. Needless to say we will not be returning. Maybe it was just an off night. My parents have been there during lunch and say it’s very busy.
