Description
Captain D’s delivers a mixed dining experience, with many praising the consistently fresh, flavorful fish and friendly, accommodating staff across locations. The dining areas are generally clean and inviting, though some guests note slower drive-thru service since the pandemic and occasional long waits during busy times. However, concerns about hygiene, including sightings of pests, and reports of food-related illness have surfaced, causing some to hesitate on returning. Accessibility challenges, such as limited parking and a hard-to-find entrance, also impact the visit. Overall, while the food and service often shine, potential diners should be mindful of varying conditions.

The drive-thru line was quite long and moved slowly. However, the customer service at both the speaker and the window was good. Unfortunately, the spicy battered fish was old and dry, which was disappointing given the enticing commercials and images on the menu board. The breadstick was tough as well. On a positive note, the regular battered fish and fries were decent. I've had good experiences at this location before, which is why I've returned multiple times. However, after my visit yesterday, I think it will be a while before I come back to try anything new. That said, I am willing to give them another chance.
The food was tasty, and the staff member at the counter was very friendly. However, there was a long wait during the dinner rush, and I was disturbed to see some roaches on the wall.
I haven't had Captain D's in quite a while—specifically, three years. I was really looking forward to enjoying their fish, coleslaw, and hush puppies. However, upon tasting the fish, I found it to be excessively salty. It was way too salty, and I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon.
The customer service is terrible. The woman at the window has a really poor attitude and needs improvement. The person taking orders was not professional at all. When I got to the window, she hadn’t even taken my order. She lied and claimed that I didn’t say anything when she asked. I assume that’s why the wait was over 15 minutes, even with just three cars in front of me. In my opinion, people who don’t want to work should just stay home. However, the food was good.
