Mancy's Bluewater Grille

I just wanted to let Mancy's Bluewater Grille know that I took my fiancee here on Valentine's Day and we were both very disappointed. We like to look at menus online of restaurants before going to ensure that we are ok with the prices before going. Once we arrived at Mancy's, the prices were very different from what was posted online. We both came here with the idea of each getting a nice entree and possibly a drink. However, without any notification Mancy's decided to drastically change their policy forcing us to pay 69 each regardless of what we purchased. We didn't want to get anything but an entree but had to because it was included in this upcharge price (that we had no notification or say in). I informed the waitress that all we wanted was an entree each, but she stated that she couldn't do anything about it. We ended up paying a total of 148.01 (pre-tip) when we should have only had to pay less than half of that. The only reason we didn't walk out after discovering this price gauge at the beginning was my fear that I couldn't take my fiancee anywhere else at the last minute. I waited 24 hours before typing this, hoping that maybe I wouldn't be as angry about it. However, it bothers me even more now. We both feel like we were robbed and lied to. Prior to booking this reservation, I called here asking about booking a banquet or party room for our wedding reception and was given a quote that it would be 1,000 minimum. We both agree that the cost was too high and decided to go in another direction. However, we at least knew BEFORE deciding to book here. This wasn't the case on Valentine's Day. This was a VERY shady thing to do to customers, especially when trying to re-open when recovering from a global pandemic. We both are unsure whether we can ever trust Mancy's enough to come back.

The food and service were nice, but my fiance and I were both very disappointed in the surprise Valentine's Day menu change and upcharge. After we had already sat down, we were told that every entree for the night cost 69 minimum and included a starter, salad, and entree. We hadn't planned on getting a starter, let alone two, and my fiance opted not to get a salad but he still had to pay for it. His cocktail shimp has only three shrimp. We like to explore the restaurant menu beforehand and have a rough idea of how much we would be spending before choosing a restaurant, and we knew ahead of time that most menu items cost between 25-40, but to leave paying over 140 on appetizers we really didn't want and salads we wouldn't normally have ordered with no prior knowledge of this change anywhere on the website or in the reservation details was upsetting. We chose this restaurant because it was fancy but affordable enough for a special occasion. I don't see us coming back.

We had lunch there today ordered the sampler oysters, and very disappointed in the crab LEG, meaning singular priced at 22.00 for 1 crab LEG!! The portions need to be reevaluated! Not happy after spending over 65.00!

We received quite the hype up to eating out here. I wouldn’t say it was awful but definitely not worth the price and everything seemed to lack flavor.
