Remington's Seafood Grill - Addison

Okay, so I gave them one star, if I could give them zero, I would have. My partner and I chose Remington's for our Valentine's Day dinner, as it had pretty decent reviews, and actually had a reservations available that wasn't at some obscure hour like 9 pm. We arrived 15 minutes prior to our 7:45 pm reservation, and the host promptly acknowledged us and sat us shortly thereafter. I do have to say he was extremely courteous and welcoming. We sat down and decided to order the Oysters Rockefeller the menu described them as being baked with spinach and slab bacon with parmesan cheese. We also ordered the steamed Prince Edward Island mussels for our second appetizer. We both ordered the Blackened Redfish with sides of rice and we substituted green beans for the coleslaw that normally comes with the dinner entrees. The waitress returned with two glasses of water, and a small bread basket. We waited for what seemed like an eternity, and at one point I overheard our waitress telling the table next to us the kitchen was backed up due to some training issue to have training on a super busy night like Valentine's eve is absurd. I asked the waitress the status of our appetizer order, and she stated it was being plated as we speak. Soon thereafter, the two appetizers we ordered are delivered to our table, and what a disaster! The oysters were mounded with a literal hill of spinach on each one, with no slab bacon, and no oysters, just the spinach and the shells. Half the mussels came with shells and no meat on the inside, very disappointing. I advised the gracious host what had happened, he was appalled, and I advised that we chose not to complete our meal and we were going to leave. Because of this bad experience, I will never set foot in this restaurant ever again.

Very busy on Valentine’s Day. Food and wine were very good, coffee a little too strong Waitstaff were good, especially when one considers the volume of customers being served Overall a nice experience for my family We always recommend this restaurant for its variety of seafood and homey feel

Love this place for 30 years plus now! Excellent fresh seafood wild caught, great service and quiet ambience to enjoy conversations. Leave your phone in the car!

This was our first visit to Remington's and we enjoyed our dinner. Food was well prepared, but my wife did not realize most of her seafood was going to be lightly fried so we'll know better to ask those questions. I had the scallops which were seared and well prepared. Restaurant is a bit dated and could use some freshening up. Overall it was a good experience and there is a good chance we will return.

Both the food and service were great. We were a group of 10 and everyone loved the seafood. I would highly recommend Remington's.
