The ambiance here is a lot of fun. The whole restaurant is filled with memorabilia from the movie and the waitress quizzed us on Forrest Gump movie trivia (which I aced).
As far as value, I would say this is on the expensive side, especially for the portion sizes. Portions are not small but they are far from generous. I remember thinking that last time when I ordered the shrimp broil.
In conclusion, if you want a great meal and your not too hungry or if you don’t mind shelling out some extra cash for some appetizers and some desert to top off the tank, I definitely recommend a visit.
