What User doesn't like about Pounders:
Seated by hostess and waited 20 minutes before I flagged down a server who said he wasn’t told we were seated in his section. Finally proceeded to order dinner. Food quality was fair. Ordered the Chinese chicken salad and was told after taking a bite, that they ran out of dressing. Really? The marlin dip was too sweet, the poke surf and turf dish was decent but the pork ribs were moist. Definite tourist trap. View all feedback. What User likes about Pounders:
