There were some definite service issues, but that's not uncommon for a new restaurant, hopefully they'll get them worked out. My food was very good, the cracklin appetizer & the namesake Kingfish. My girlfriend's steak was ok, a bit overcooked.
Palace Cafe is good, but over two weeks of Jazzfest, between myself and acquaintances, at least 4 credit cards used there were skimmed/cloned and used fraudulently.
Re: Kingfish. That's why I usually wait at least a month before I try a new place. I can't believe how many "Yelpers" will trash a restaurant during the first couple of days it's open. Glad you acknowledge the fact that you went when it was only open about a week.
Re: Palace Café. What was their response after you reported the fraud? Do you know if they found the guilty employees? What a major pain. Thanks for the heads up.
