We stumbled upon this place by chance. The broiled scallops were incredible, and the portions were generous without breaking the bank. The beer was affordable too. It's a small, unassuming spot, but definitely worth a visit!

Other meals in my party included the rabbit, which was just ok . The sword fish and Tuna were both terrible. Bland, like out of a frozen dinner. The worst part about this place is the horrible service... The place was empty when we arrived so there is no excuse. Waited a half hour to order and get drinks. They forgot my water and I wouldn 't be getting one until an hour in, when our food finally arrived... yes, an hour... we ate the mediocre food... then we finished eating and they came and cleaned our table.....and we then continued to wait another 40 minutes just trying to pay and leave. Mandatory 20% tip, which is fine, except the service was BAD! Probably why they didn 't care about serving us very well.

However, during my most recent visit with a group of seven, I noticed that the quality of the food has declined. The staff were friendly, but the service was incredibly slow. I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon. Unfortunately, Captain's Place just doesn’t have what it takes to be one of my go-to restaurants. As a Portuguese person, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone trying the cuisine for the first time, let alone those who are more experienced!
