FWIW, I experienced a similar sense of disappointment the one time I ate at the Chart House located in Marina Del Rey, CA.

Then again, my idea of outstanding seafood is a generous serving of southern fried catfish, some hot sauce, and a couple of cans of Coca Cola.

I remember having a pecan crusted grouper that happened to be REAL grouper. Not the center cut of a big portion of cod. Also had a cream of crab soup.
You never know, it could have gotten bad. The last time I was there was a little less than a year ago and it was good.

Nothing compares to blasting a hog or a gag and having it fresh with some fresh beer batter......
