    Bayseas make delicious seafood at a great price. There isn't much ambiance as it looks like this location is a former fast food restaurant, but the delicious golden-fried catfish is what to come here for. Orders are placed at the counter, but the service was actually very attentive and friendly. They also offer huge bottles of tartar, cocktail, and hot sauce for all your dipping needs along with plenty of lemon wedges. For $18 I was very very full. A solid option.

    Okay, this place didn't disappoint. My hubby wasn't a fan of coleslaw but Bayseas you made him a believer. It's so yummy! Everything is cooked with love and service was most excellent. Place to enjoy great food!

    We've been on the hunt for some good fish spots here in SA and we were lead to Bayseas. I must say the menu was full and we were very much so undecided but excited. The cashier was patient with us and she gave us some great suggestions and verbally condensed the menu for us so quickly we were actually able to make a collaborative decision. She knew her stuff and her recommendations will be tucked in our back pockets for the future lol. One thing she did highly talk about the most was the cornbread, she said it's not for sharing and we would regret not getting our own lol. She had that look in her eyes that told us to trust her and get that cornbread!! LOL. We ordered the Shrimp and Catfish Special, which came with 3 pieces of each, coleslaw and fries and we added on 2 pieces of cornbread. Now let me tell you baby lol that CORNBREAD!! She did not come to play!! Ohhhh my goodness!! The cashier didn't steer us wrong y'all lol it was THE BEST cornbread I've ever had at a restaurant. It was almost like a super moist cake and full of flavor 10/10 for sure. The fry and seasoning on the shrimp and catfish was good. However, we favored the shrimp more over the catfish. The catfish, was a bit to greasy.. it was good but greasy. The portion size was very filling and we definitely had leftovers. The fries were plain and not seasoned at all. The coleslaw was VERY good in flavor but overly saturated in juice. If you like alot of juice this will rock your world but our preference is that middle lane.. not to dry but not to juicy either.. again it was a very very good coleslaw 8/10. Lastly, dessert.. we got the chocolate & white chocolate ribbon cake and it was just okay 5/10 Overall, we would definitely go back to Bayseas and try some other things that caught our eye but the STAR of the show was the shrimp and the CORNBREAD!!. Customer service was great and I can say we enjoyed our lunch, we'll be back.

    Soul food heaven. Located in a nondescript strip mall area. But super clean inside Collard greens are seasoned right, and the smothered pork chop is the size of my plate. The fried catfish and shrimp have a light coating and are cooked perfectly. They are huge portions. Our server was pleasant and responsive. The food came out within five minutes of ordering, piping hot and delicious. This is our favorite home-cooking restaurant.

    Catfish special 15 bucks... it's a lot

    Wow I love this place. For the price you get a ton of catfish fries coleslaw and bread. Come hungry because this place will fill you up. Catfish was on point fries with crispy shrimp were fabulous. I'm not a fan of coleslaw, but this was really good stuff. I had to say I ate my coleslaw. The place is small, but plenty of seating. Food is quick to come out and the service is outstanding. All the people here have smiles and you can tell they're grateful for their customers. I will definitely be back and make this a regular stop. Last time I had catfish was in Louisiana.. I am hooked like the catfish that was on my plate.

    'Seafood gumbo'

    This was a very disappointing lunch. We were not greeted upon entry and were told that they - a 'family' restaurant - do not have high chairs. Also, the floors are quite sticky. Against my better judgment, we stayed for lunch. Ordered sweet tea - absolutely disgusting. Ordered an appetizer of 'seafood' gumbo. The seafood consisted of one shrimp cut in half - the rest of the gumbo consisted of tomatoes - heresy! - and andouille. Also, insanely small. Then, I ordered the shrimp and oyster combo. Did not get it - instead got a ton of trout. Did they listen when I pointed this out? Of course not.

    Catfish, Shrimp, Oysters and a large order of hushpuppies. Perfect!

    Soooo good! Fairly crowded for a Friday, but you wouldn't know it. Fast, friendly service and amazing food. When our waitress brought our food one of my shrimp fell on the floor. I was sad until she came back with TWO shrimp! The portions are so generous I have enough for another meal tomorrow. Very happy that Bayseas is 7 minutes from the house! Highly recommend.

    It's a seafood restaurant, but it's also a soul food restaurant. If you don't try the pork chops, you're missing out!

There was a musician singing and playing guitar, and he was really good, which made the atmosphere even better. The drinks were great and the food was even better. We ordered wings and a pizza and really enjoyed both. It also felt very family-friendly. There's a small play area just off the outside deck, and several kids were down there playing, which was nice to see. The highchairs can be a little hard to spot, but they do have them inside near the restrooms. Overall, it was a great experience and we'll definitely be coming back!

We had planned to have a few drinks before grabbing dinner but we didn't plan the timing correctly. No biggie...regardless, the food was pretty solid! Both the kimchi fries and dumplings offered a unique taste that sit differently than most other places. It was a pleasant different though. The fries were great and the dumplings complimented the drinks! My partner had a Moscato and I chose a beer flight. Overall the vibe was good. We just missed out on some live music as they were just wrapping up their set. Nevertheless, we will be better prepared next time!
