Would never go back. Food was bad, service was ok. Tried to have a nice last night date with my wife and figured we would give this a try despite some previous warnings from friends about bad experiences (they happened many years ago). We ordered the sea food fires, good luck finding the seafood. My wife ordered the fried shrimp platter and the shrimp tasted burnt, like someone had emptied an entire ashtray into the deep fryer. We even offered to let the staff and management taste the shrimp, but they refused stating they didn't like fried shrimp (but they still know what fried shrimp are supposed to taste like????). My wife and I split my entree, the scallops platter which was just ok. Even after biting into a single shrimp we were charged for the entire meal. Worst meal ever at the beach, there are so many other great restaurants down here, try all of them before you even consider the Cottage Cafe.
