    Went to Tommy’s with girlfriends to celebrate a birthday. We were pleased to see the new comfortable chairs. However, the menu was disappointing for us because two of our favorites were missing. We often enjoy the filet mignon tacos and the plantains. Both are no longer available. Three of us had the fish tacos, which were good, but instead of three they’re only two now. Having chips is not merely as nice as the plants. If cost cutting was behind the missing fillet tacos, which were very popular and the plants that were popular as well, I would rather have seen an increase in price on the menu. All of our food was good, but we were disappointed.

    Had the coconut shrimp appetizer and it was great. The crab bisque soup is outstanding and worth having it every time! Our party enjoyed the mahi tacos and the sea bass. Both were very good and prepared just right.

    We arrived at 6:50 for our 7:00 reservation and weren’t seated until 7:10. They weren’t able to accommodate my request for an inside booth. Our server was very helpful but the food was very slow to be served to our table. A little dissatisfied in the latest experience. Not what we have come to love with our past experiences there.

    Great customer service from beginning to end. Super friendly staff. Food was good, ordered coconut shrimp and crab cake appetizers along with salad, hamburger and fish tacos for our entrees. Coconut shrimp, salad and tacos were great. Crab cakes were mushy and burger was a mess. There was live music in the background, not too loud. Overall, I’d recommend Tommy Bahamas for a nice meal in a nice atmosphere.

    We always love coming here. Great food, great service. The live music was just the right vibe for a nice evening out. We were able to use a coupon, which meant we splurged a little on food. Worth it. Thank you Tommy Bahama!
