Captain John's Seafood House

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Good food: Although I haven't been to Capt. John's in about 10 years, but I do remember the food as being excellant. The service there at the time was very good. Although, I do believe they were a little pricy, but when it comes to fresh seafood, you really can't get that anywhere fresh unless it's along the Atlantic, Pacific, or Gulf Coasts.

Eight Great Dinners: While we'd been to a couple of the other dockside restaurants in Calabash, we'd never gone to the same one twice. . .until we tried Capt. John's. We drove up from North Myrtle Beach on a Saturday night, with Hurricane Ophelia hovering off the coast. We parked in the lot that about four restaurants share and our oldest daughter said, "Let's try that one", indicating Capt. John's.
Wow. . .Great choice. My husband and daughter had the fantail shrimp and said it was the best shrimp they'd had in years! I had the flounder and it was great,too. The prices were very reasonable - better than our now "old favorite" in North Myrtle.
When our younger daughter arrived later in the week, and the hurricane had blown on by, we headed back to Capt. John's on Thursday evening so she could try the fantastic shrimp her dad and sister had been raving about. There was some concern that it wouldn't be as good the second time - but no worries! They declared it "Great" again. We had eight dinners, all told, during the two visits - and all were very good. The hush puppies were hot and plentiful - a little different from most we've had, more of a dough base rather than a batter, but very good . . .top that off with baked potatoes and pitchers of sweet tea and you can't go wrong.
There's a great view of the dock from many of the tables, too.
We'll be returning again for sure!
