Yes, The Rusty Pelican is situated in a very beautiful location on the water. Which is where the good part of this review comes to a halt. The service is horrible and you have to flag down your waiter and continue reminding them of anything and everything you're asking for. Sunday brunch seems like a great idea: all you can eat/drink for 28 bucks. However, the food is nothing out of this world, on top of the fact that this past Sunday, January 7, I went to this brunch to find WORMS swiggling around in our plates of oysters and crab legs. Three little worms, after we had already consumed several plates. We asked our waiter to see the manager, to which the manager relayed that he was busy and to comp the meal. Comp the meal? With not even an apology or a visit from the manager? We pushed further to speak with him. The manager finally came back with a "The food's on us." I was very dissatisfied to say the very least. Free food after eating parasitic worms did not make me happy, especially since he obviously desired that the worm situation be a contained one, with the hopes that no one else would notice these parasites crawling around in their food and into their mouths. We took the liberty of informing everyone around us of the worms and noticed that they just kept the food coming. You would think at least they would have stopped serving the parasite-infested items, but instead they just wanted to maintain the flow of the restaurant. All in all I would definitely NEVER go back to this establishment.
