We got back a week ago, (had toe surgery the day after we got home, better now..), but wanted to post a review about the horrid meal we had at the Swan.
We were there for the Seafood buffet. Their was 9 of us, 2 that can't eat seafood, but the Swan staff said they could have a steak for the same $28.99. First of the many, many problems...
The steaks that they got were about 1/2 inch thin. Over cooked, tasteless, and dry. When we tried to find our waiter to tell him we could not find him... or ANY waitstaff. It was not busy, as it was very early in the evening.
The manager came buy and asked if everything was alright. We said no. She said to bad...
The peas at the kids station were hard, undrercooked and tasted like dirt. As if they had not been washed.
The crab legs were either overcooked, which made it allmost impossible to get to the meat, or cooked to mush. One of the 2 clusters I had was ok... the other tasteless.
We were not able to get the waiter to refill our drinks, no suprise since we didn't see a lot of him...
The deserts were ok. The Grape jello/shooters with booze in them were out on the buffet and I saw several kids getting them. I tried it and it was like cheap wine that had been jello-ed.... really yuck. The choclate stuff was ok, one of them was a little bitter, and I love 86% unsweet choclate!
The veggies on the buffet were either excellent, or over cooked. I had a serving and when I went back for more it was not the same quailty.
This was our first and last time to eat at the Swan. It was the 5th or 6th time eating there for most of the group. They had eaten there earlier in the week and on several other stays, and said it had been good the first trip, in Dec. 07, but the last few times it had not been as good. This was the worst they had ever had also. They will not go back either, or even stay there anymore.
I had really looked forward to that meal... oh, well. At least we had a GREAT meal at Cape May a few days befor. And maybe we just hit it on a really off night.?
Sure hope we just hit them on an off night! I can't believe that they could stay in bussiness if it was allways that bad.
