Having lived in south Louisiana for a spell, I was really looking forward to the large, Gulf shrimp, and they were - large, that is. Whatever the secret was, it had a distinctive citrus tang to it. The entree was OK, but compared to the medium-rare steak, the shrimp was little more than a culinary distraction. We had the best waitress we've encountered in ages, and the service was fast. The steak took a while, but we were prepared.
All entrees come with biscuits and either red potatoes or french fries.
The turtle cheesecake has an Oreo cookie crust and is topped with caramel, pecans, chocolate chips and Hershey's chocolate syrup. The raspberry cheesecake is simply New York-style cheesecake drizzled with homemade raspberry sauce. In addition to a large dining room with a view of Fayetteville's festive Dickson Street, Doe's has another room equipped with a full bar and saddles atop the bar stools, plus a back room to handle the overflow. On football game days, rest assured, there's overflow. We liked the decor.
