If Captain D’s fish pieces get any smaller, they will be fish sticks! I was surprised and disappointed when they bought me my plate. I liked the fried okra (up charge), the jalapeno poppers were good (real cheese, not cream cheese) and a small baked potato. I guess my extra items, including my drink bought it up to $21 bucks. I usually like Captain D’s but I wish the fish was normal size and they had bumped up the price a little. Look for coupons and ask about senior discounts.

I ordered the Supreme sampler with fries and slaw. Needless to say, the meal was hot and good. No real complaints here as everything was cooked and prepared just right

Honestly, I don’t know why I gave the service 3 stars. 2 1/2 maybe. Girl behind counter abrasive, borderline rude . The food was awful. Do they EVER change the oil for deep frying. It had a distinctly old, reused many times smell and flavor. The fish was soaked in oil therefor it had sat too long in not hot enough oil. Learn to cook. Disgusting. We’ve been in the area 23 years. It used to be quite good pre pandemic. Won’t be going back.

Food was hot and fresh! Little wait, but it had to be because the food was cooked right then and there! Definitely recommend when you want that quick seafood fix

This was such a great surprise. We had never been here or a place like it. The food was a little under seasoned, but it was all cooked perfectly. The service was friendly and quick. The building was clean and well kept. The prices were much better than I was expecting for real seafood. We will certainly be going back.

After seeing advertisements about captain d’s (the name was not capitalized on purpose to show our disdain for this menu item) Herb and Garlic Shrimp meal, we decided to try it. My family ordered the Herb and Garlic Shrimp. This was literally the worst food in terms of taste and appearance than anything either of us had ever witnessed in our lives. Needless to say, we did not eat this slop. The herb and garlic shrimp had the appearance of an under cooked oyster breaded in dark batter with the taste of licorice with no hint of herb or garlic seasoning. In addition, we were further repulsed at the sight of this so called Herb and Garlic Shrimp meal because we could only find shavings of actual shrimp pasted together by a dark unseasoned batter. We’re still wondering how they managed to find shrimp tails for this creation. Bottom-line, what captain d advertises as Herb and Garlic Shrimp and what they serve you looks totally different. Lastly, false advertising is a serious crime and I forgot to mention that the manager’s customer service skills were right on par with their Herb and Garlic Shrimp meal.

Busy place, they have fast service. The food is good and hot. The drive thru is busy, and the line moves quickly due to the very efficient staff.
