What Kim Heath likes about Captain John's Seafood House:
We are locals , and therefore have had the opportunity to eat at most of the seafood eateries from Southport to Surfside Beach. This is our new favorite place to eat. We had the Capt. John 's platter, and as is typical of Calabash style cooking... there was enough for two more people! The flounder was light, flaky and delicious. The oysters, clam strips and shrimp were tender and lightly breaded. We will be coming ba... View all feedback. What Eric Cardone doesn't like about Captain John's Seafood House:
The service was wonderful but the meal was a disappointment. Nothing was fresh at all. Calamari was soggy and like rubber, same with the shrimp and fish. Would not recommend eating here. View all feedback.

read moreCaptain John's Seafood House offers a mixed dining experience; while some customers were disappointed with soggy, rubbery calamari and burned oysters, others found it to be their new favorite seafood spot. The Captain John's platter was praised for its generous portions, delicious flounder, and tender oysters, clam strips, and shrimp. The pan-fried shrimp received rave reviews for its huge portions and delicious taste. The service was highlighted as attentive and friendly, with particular praise for server Pam. However, some diners did note issues with under-heated Alaskan snow crab legs. Overall, Captain John's offers a variety of seafood options with a cozy atmosphere and reasonable prices. It seems like the quality of the dining experience may vary depending on what you order.
