Went to E2 last night for dinner. There were 6 of us in our party. We made reservations for 8:15. We were seated at 8:35. Overall was an enjoyable experience. Cocktails were VERY good. E2 was fairly busy for dinner, however I thought the service and punctuality of the server was very slow. I ordered the price fix menu option which was Boudin as an appetizer, salad, Drum as the entree, then a banana type pudding cake.\n\nBoudin appetizer was very good. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. Salad was great. Would give it 4 out of 5 stars as well. Drum was not good. For fresh seafood, this was a huge disappointment. I would give the Drum 2 out of 5 stars. The Drum itself was very dry and did not taste fresh. It tasted frozen and old. The mussels, clams and shrimp that accompanied the Drum dish were the same. Tasted very dry, frozen and old. The dessert was amazing. Would give it 5 out of 5 stars.\n\nThat being said, I probably would not return to Emeril's Eatery. I think the restaurant is WAY overpriced for what it is. The Drum entree was $32 itself ($45 for the price fix menu option). Quite frankly the Drum entree is not worth anywhere near $32. Maybe $15-$18.\n\nIf you are looking for delicious cajun/creole cuisine at a great value, I would go to Cajun Queen.
