When I first tried Hamburger Joe's, I was expecting a first rate burger like PT's or Dockside offers. What I got, tasted like a frozen patty, double the price of Wendy's. The only other times I went there was when they offered their prime rib special, I think on Wednesday's. That was good but they didn't keep the special going. As for Naked Kingfish, they irritated me for charging a $5 fee for sharing. That's a Northeast practice that should not be tolerated in the Southland. Plus, they were not quite the restaurant that our first rate seafood places around here are. But, they charged first rate prices. Remember the crowd that took over Market Street Dining? They ruined a perfectly good business and drove everyone away. Look at Wahoo Willie's, doomed to start. Most everything on the menu was trendy Southwest spicy seafood. And, look what happened when the Jones boys brought in a traditional Calabash style.
Both Places Were Doomed
