Joyce's Ocean Grill [Closed]

UPDATE: CLOSED EARLY 2008
We had heard alot about this place in the Memorial area, so we wanted to try its new location inside the Loop. Maybe it just wasn't our night for seafood, but we weren't excited about this restaurant. Perhaps our error was going to eat dinner at 8; it appears from the age of the clientèle that the action likely happens during the early bird dinner hour. The well lit restaurant didn't have much ambiance. Our visit started off on a slightly wrong foot when the waiter (who said he had been a bartender for many years) brought a gin & tonic without any lime. As usual, we ordered calamari, which was o'kay, but nothing great. The menu is somewhat limited and we didn't want any more fried food, which was probably a mistake since the fried shrimp are supposed to be a specialty. We couldn't find anything else that sounded good to us, so we left and went to Carrabba's.
