I decided to try the Crabcakes and Shrimp Alfredo. The dish featured fried crab cakes lying over a bed of pasta with Alfredo sauce and topped with grilled shrimp. Like any dish at Copeland’s, this one was huge and piled high. You can always be sure that you will never leave Copeland's hungry.

The dish was incredible. The creaminess of the Alfredo sauce complimented the saltiness of the crab cakes and of course went well with the shrimp. Overall, this is a great classic dish with a twist that really works well. My hat is off!

My girlfriend ordered the shrimp platter, one of the most popular dished at Copeland's along with the seafood platter. The Shrimp are large and fried to a golden brown. They are well seasoned and have fresh taste. The platter comes with more shrimp than most can handle and sits upon a bed of fries and fried onion strips (which are fantastic). The platter also comes with fried crawfish tails.

Don't worry, I ate my share of her plate!

Service
The servers at Copeland’s are very friendly and show a lot of class. The only problem I had during this visit was with my daughter’s cheeseburger. They brought out two buns with a pea sized hamburger patty. It was ridiculous. The waitress was quick to take it back and get her a new hamburger and gave us dessert on the house. Great job satisfying your customers when a mistake is made! That's hard to find in most restaurants now days.

Atmosphere
The renovation of the restaurant completely opened up the restaurant and added more seating. The walls and lighting are just two changes in the dining area. The first thing you may notice when walking into the restaurant is the new bakery that has been added and a new wall fountain that towers behind the greeters. It is a very formal and warm atmosphere.
