Landry's Florida

It's nice to be on the road and find something you know and familiar with. We were at Pensacola area, and were hoping to try something local. Except, they had more than a 45 mins wait. As much as I'd like to experience the local flavors, I also was super hungry, and 45 mins was not going to be ok.

So, needless to say, it was nice to see Landry's at the foot of the bridge. The service, I will tell you is nothing like home. They didn't even bother to ask if you're a Signature Select member, which is Landry's big membership deal. While that's an obvious frequent diner deal, it was suppose to get you better seating should you forget to make a reservation and such.

Anyway, the food, however, was better than the ones back home. Not sure why. But, they offer sweet tea, which ironically, Texas doesn't offer that. But the tuna steak was good, and it came with this mixed rice. I, of course, needed some greens and ordered some asparagus. It wasn't too olive-oily, wasn't over cooked. It was good. Add the rice to the mix, the flavor was rich and sublime.

Our server was super friendly, but there were moments that felt like she was treating us like she would treat her kids. That's a tad much. Otherwise, everyone else was very blase' about having customers there. For not having full tops everywhere, the service was slow and there are times you can't find your server. That's very strange.
