It took us 10 months to purchase some seafood from Captain Harrells, but we did it today! I wanted…read moreto pick a time that it was not crazy crowded. I wanted time to read the board and learn how they are operating due to covid. I loved their set up. You pull up, park and get out of your car to look at the whiteboard menu closer. Once you know what you would like, head to the door and knock. Someone will open the door and take your order. So simple! TIP: CASH AND CHECK ONLY! Today I had a sweet lady take my order and package it all up. She wore a mask the entire time, as so did we. She was helpful at showing us what a deviled crab looked like, and help explain other items. I really appreciate that she took the time to do that. It makes me want to come back and purchase more when businesses do that. There was also an older gentleman inside enjoying a crab cake sandwich. He had the biggest sweetest smile ever. He was a happy a can be with that sandwich, and I was definitely jealous! The crab cakes were delicious. I'm making something with the meat on Friday. Just not sure what yet. Another little bit of information, they have a restaurant that opened a few months ago. They have good food! It is just down the street near the Food Lion.

I tried a few things, the Crab cakes, broiled crab, bacon and chicken gumbo, and the crab and lobster cake sandwich. For the sandwich be sure to order whatever fixings you want with it, they're al a carte. The gumbo was delicious and a touch spicy. The fries or collards were the best sides I tried. If I had an improvement, the hushpuppies are a little dense and could use a little lighter batter. Don't miss out!

The restaurant side is spacious and the fish market offers a variety of fresh seafood and select frozen meats. I ordered the fried Cajun catfish with collard greens and Mac and cheese. It was a little pricey $19. But you did receive 2 big pieces of fish and small servings of the sides. The Mac and cheese was lacking flavor and so did the greens. It took a lot of salt and pepper. Not a fan other sides at all. But, the fish was perfectly seasoned.

When I couldn't find a rice cake I liked, one of the women offered me a free one to try. It was so good that I ended up buying a whole bag and it was even better than what I originally came in looking for. I also saw something I couldn't quite tell what it was, and she grabbed a single one and let me try it. It turned out to be green tea with honey in a large juice box, and it was hands down the best tea I've ever had. Amazing service, amazing products, and such a welcoming experience. I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in town again.

It's disappointing since it's the only Asian grocery store in town. I just go to a different Asian grocery store in Newport News since at least it has more things in stock.

Used to be the best seafood in Hampton and Poquoson…read more We go here a few times a year for special occasions or just to splurge on what used to be a fantastic restaurant. The place is usually packed with people, but the restaurant was almost empty at dinner time. I could not figure it out until my meal was brought out to the table. It explained why the restaurant is no longer busy. Went tonight for my birthday and it was a big disappointment. I ordered the special Grilled Rockfish and Shrimp for $30.99. My friend ordered the crab cakes for $39.99. The rockfish and shrimp had so much salty and foul tasting red seasoning that the only taste was the seasoning. Rockfish is delicious and the only seasoning needed for cooking is some butter, lemon, salt and pepper. Why would any cook (I say cook because they do not have a chef) ruin delicious piece of fish like rockfish by completely covering the fish in some seasoning that is meant for crab boil. The only reason restaurants use heavy seasoning are when they want to cover the taste of seafood that is not fresh or they have cooks that do not know how to properly cook rockfish. I could not tell if the rockfish was fresh because the only thing I could taste was the seasoning that was caked on the fish in a thick coating like a dry rub on ribs. I took two bites of the very small 4 oz filet of rockfish and had heartburn and indigestion. The 6 shrimp were small 50/60 count and were rubbery with no flavoring except the seasoning. The rockfish meal was $30.99 and the only thing I can say is the broiled fish dinner at Captain Ds for $10 beats the meal at Surfrider hands down. My friend had the crab cakes which she said were very good. She could not eat the collard greens because she said they were so salty that they were not edible. The cucumbers in vinegar side was also unlike any cucumber salad I have ever tried and I don't mean that in a good way. Good service and ambience but that still does not raise the bar above 1 star. Probably not the worse seafood dinner I have ever had but it definitely is the worse dinner that I had spent $100 on.

Snow Crab legs, shrimp, 2 corns, 2 potatoes, and sausage was seasoned just right. The corn and potatoes were cooked to perfection. The restaurant had a good amount of people dining in.

The twisted sauce seasoning (all sauces combined) was flavorful; however, the potatoes were slightly overcooked. The primary reason for our four-star rating was the slow and inattentive service, despite three servers being on duty. Upon arrival, we waited at the entrance for a bit until a delivery driver walked past us and was assisted first. We also observed another table waiting to place their order request to move to the bar because no one had serviced them. While the food was enjoyable, we would choose to dine elsewhere due to the service experience today.
