output: Horrible! As a couple of "foodies" both my boyfriend and I WERE extremely excited to try out American Fish. Being that it was opening night, we expected that the experience would not be up to par but we never imagined it would be terrible over all. We arrived for our reservation right on time and was sat by a confused hostess in a part of the restaurant that was apart from the dining room. (Mind you there were many empty tables in the dining room at the time). I asked to be moved from our out-of-the-loop ::wobbely;; table and they moved us to the dining room (finally). The waiter was extremely courteous but unfortunately he was not why we were dining there. The kitchen took about 45 min to present us with our appetizer. A crabcake. Literally ONE $18 crabcake. I'd rate it a 6/10 on taste. My poor boyfriend didn't like it....which wouldn't have been too bad if our entrees hadn't taken another 45 minutes. In the meanwhile the manager presented us with an "on the house" lobster roll which not only was disgusting but just made us more hungry staring at food we didn't want to eat. Eventually the entrees came. Mine was the sweet shrimp (served with the heads ::vomit::). Supposedly its cooked with some gourmet technique though it was worse than a 5 min marinade I could buy at the grocery store. My boyfriend ordered the pork. Which was supposedly the "kobe of pork". Well they were right is comparison with portions and that's about it. The flavorless dish was smaller than your typical appetizer. They ended up comping our crabcake. Oh. And I forgot...our cauliflower au gratin side dish supposedly fit for two (it was half the size of any side dish I've ever had at any of Mina's restaurant). With that wait u think they would have comped the food we had to wait an hour and a half for! Guess they weren't interested in ours or our friends future business at all. No worries...they wouldn't have gotten it regardless. Hey Michael Mina...this new venture is a lost cause. After eating at your XIV I was truly delighted I'm just disgusted and still hungry.

The reviews that I read here complained about their service mostly but I must say that Liz was covering the tables like a blanket. Her helper served us our drinks as soon as we sat down. Liz came to give us the menu and left us alone for a few minutes. Then she was there to take the order. The food came within 10-15 min and the owner came to make sure everything was OK. During our meal, Liz was there at least 3 times to see if we needed anything. I do not know what else one can expect in terms of service in any restaurant. As for their ribs, they were SUPERB, by far better than the famous chains and definitely up there with Rollins, if not better. The sides were very good as well. If you are worry about your weight, do not order the best side dish they have. That would be the sweet potato casserole. The cole slaw and french fries were a little better than average. There is no attampt to create any atmosphere here. The emphasis is food and it is very good. Their recent nomination as the best ribs in town is well deserved. They also deserve more clients to make sure that they stay open in Henderson for me :).

I visited this restaurant four times last week. All four times I sat at the bar. The first time I has good service and a personal pizza that was good. I drank the IPA. I was excited about having another brewpub nearby. The second time there was a second bartender. She was in the wrong business. She was not happy to be there and made sure you weren't happy either. No personality, slow and inattentive. I had the pale ale and the IPA with chicken wings. Once again the beer and food were good. The third trip the first bartender was on duty. OK service, nothing to write home about and the red beer was very good. Up to this point I was looking forward to visiting again. On the final visit the first bartender spilled an entire glass of beer into my and my guest's laps. Accidents happen. I expected that at least the first round of beers would be free for having bathed in beer earlier. When the check came all beers where on the check. I asked about getting the beers taken off and was told no, it would get her in trouble. I shouldn't have had to ask. When I did something should have been done. I paid my bill and decided there are plenty of places with good beer and good food. The service I had from the two bartenders is the best reason to not return. Occasional bad service is to be expected but two bad bartenders out of two says management needs to pay closer attention.
