   I normally find Gandy Dancer to be an exceptional place to eat. Last night my meal wasn't the quality it has always been in the past. I hope that they are not going downhill!

   Good place for special occasions. Many different seafood dishes and meat dishes to choose from. One vegetarian entree. They recently updated soups and salads with good new choices. Their desserts are very good.

   We were very disappointed in the food. It took about twenty five minutes to get our orders and when they arrived, they were cold. Even the second plate (that was supposed to be hot) arrived luke warm. And the taste was very poor. We had better meal the day before in the pub across the street than from this fine restaurant. Very disappointed as we were there to celebrate.

   Love the restaurant and the atmosphere. The service was marginal. I had the crab stuffed salmon. The salmon was dry and I think overcooked. The crab stuffing was burnt on the top and the potatoes and asparagus were barely warm. The lobster bisque was good, but again only slightly warm. I have been there many times, but this was the worst of all my visits.

   Everything was OK except the wine and one of our main dishes. And the cocktail we shared. The glass of merlot was barely drinkable, and it was from their top tier section. The adventurous flight of reds was horrible; couldn't finish it. Every restaurant should have a genuine top-tier wine available by the glass. Let’s face it - the bar here is mediocre at best. The cocktail was unbalanced, unenjoyable, and I sent it back. This is not a place for people who appreciate good wine. I generally purchase a bottle, but wanted to experiment with different wines, instead of sticking to just one bottle the whole evening. Big mistake. The restaurant doesn't even have a sommelier. It shows. It doesn't even publish its wine list. My wife's main course was very good. Mine was ridiculously poor. The shrimp was fried to oblivion. It was hard and barely edible. I ate it because I was hungry. I should have sent it back. The dessert was good, a chocolate lava cake made in-house. It isn't the best in town, but respectable. Overall the wine fiascos made the meal really unenjoyable. This is not a place for fine wine.

   This was an amazing dinner. All six of us thoroughly enjoyed or meals, drinks, and desserts. It has been years since any of us have been, but it will now be on our list to frequent more often.

   Birthday dinner. Our daughter bought us a gift certificate for Christmas, but we're Landry members, so it's always a special occasion place. It was great. Food great! Ask for Raymond. He'll treat you like you're royalty! Plan to go back soon!

    The atmosphere was so relaxing. The server took great care of us. The food was great. This was a really enjoyable family dinner out with the teenager and everyone had a nice time.
