Calabash style seafood originated in the small town of Calabash, North Carolina. In eastern North Carolina, just twenty miles north of Myrtle Beach, S.C., this seafood capitol is located on the banks of the inland waterway. This style of seafood became famous because of both the seasoning and preparation. The freshest of seafood is lightly breaded and fried to perfection.
At Captain Luey’s you can enjoy either original or salt and pepper calabash recipes, or you can choose from Captain Luey’s delicious broiled or chargrilled selections.
And of course it can’t be Calabash without hush puppies and sweet tea!
Booths line the walls of this family-friendly eatery boasting Southern fried fish dishes. Based on 944 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.4 stars. Price $$

Had the frog legs as an app and they were cooked to perfection. Then as main meal had prime rib and shrimp and everything was cooked perfectly! Other person with me had peel and eat shrimp and that was amazing and also cooked perfectly!!! I would highly recommend this place especially on a Friday or Saturday. Pricing was well worth it as the portions were huge!

Building may be run down, but don’t let that stop you! It’s clean inside, and yes, badly, in need of updating..but the service and food was stellar. Especially love the hush puppies!! They make seafood either fried with flour original or salt and pepper flour..recommend salt and pepper. Food was hot and tasted great!

I don’t like hush puppies that I have had before… but, I love theirs! The kids plates are HUGE compared to what you get at other resturants. The staff is very attentive with out being pushy or rude, and very polite. The kids loved it there! We will definitely be back, especially since it is not far from our house.

Arrived late (just before close) and we were greeted as though we came for lunch. With an outstanding, family friendly and casual atmosphere, I felt instantly welcomed and at ease. Our meals were made to order with perfection and our waitress, Brandy (I’m sorry if I misspelled it) was kind and attentive, also A huge part of why we’ll be returning soon with the whole family as often as possible.
