Captain D's food is still good. I really enjoy the fried oysters. The service was quick and accurate. The store is always clean, including the bathrooms. I wish they had more stores closer to my area. Keep up the good work. read more

Usually very good. Not this time. Ordered online. Two points for making some food - of which the fish and slaw alone were edible - on time. But oh my! What happened to the frying oil, and why is that employee at the driveup so surly? He said something we couldn't understand at the driveup microphone, then handed over the food without a single word, not even repeating the order or anything, scowling the whole time. Was he trying to wordlessly warn us not to eat what was in that bag? The hushpuppies were actually inedible: there had black and deep brown crumbs around the outside that were oil-leaking all over the plate, and were so hard they could break a tooth. I cut that stuff off to try the inside but that part was tastless and greasy too - except for one flavor that stood out: OLD OIL. The okra was ruined: soggy as if it had been boiled and then rolled in some sort of soggy batter that was oil-logged and smelly like...... Ollllllllld Oil. My husband got fries and didn't eat them after trying a couple. Soggy, pasty on the inside, no flavor, "not worth eating, yuck" was his comment as he tossed them in the trash with the "pasty tasteless mush" that was the mac and cheese. The fish wasn't "wow, I want that again" but it was edible. The outside batter had black and dark brown flecks from the old oil but the flavor wasn't horrible. It was VERY greasy - but I'd just returned from a long drive and we just wanted something quick. Sooooo, we got the oil off the rish in two different ways: I squeezed my fish in paper towel - had to repeat this just once - and my husband took the outside stuff entirely off of his fish, and we had the coleslaw with it. PS: The coleslaw was warm but pretty good. read more

November 15, 2025. I had brought my daughter with me to try out the restaurant (my family had ordered food from this location several times). Had a wonderful counter person (I couldn't read his name on the receipt), time of day 11:39am. The young man greeted us with a genuine smile and was very patient helping us place our order. The food was great, and the young man checked on us a couple times to make sure all was ok. He cheerfully answered questions and made sure we had everything we needed. We definitely will be coming back! read more

I've always been happy with my food at this place, but the last 2 times I got it the hush puppies were awful which kind of ruined the whole dinner for me as that was always my favorite part of the meal. Did you change the recipe? If so, please change it back or I won't be back. Thank you. read more

Food was hot and delicious. Lobby was clean, service was fast. Cashier was helpful and took the time to give me recommendations. Will be returning soon read more

I was excited to see a Captain D's in Michigan. It was my go to fast food restaurant for fish when I lived in the South. The fish and hushpuppies were just as I remember. I will definitely continue to return to this restaurant. I only wish it was closer than 30 minutes from my house. read more

Somehow I made a mistake and posted this review on a Captain D's in Georgia, it was Oct 11 2024. I used to love this place. The food was always good and it was hot. Today the cole slaw was clearly not fresh, my fish and my fries were cold, and the orders have been made smaller as well (i never could finish the 4 piece, today I did). I ordered okra, got home to find coleslaw. At least my wifes cat fish was warm, much better than my cold fish and very cold fries.. Wondering if this food gets cooked and they just wait for someone to order it. This is the second time I've been disappointed there. read more

Great food. Great value. They deliver your food to the table when it's ready. Love the place.

I think I was in heaven! The batter fished was amazing: crunchy, long, and white. Fast service. Clean place! Great value for the price too. read more

Captain D's - Fish - Seafood Near Me - Clinton Township, Michigan

I ordered a fish sandwich with no tarter. When I got all the way home on the other side of town, the sandwich had tarter on it. I didn't think to check it because the cashier came back to the window to clarify that the sandwich is to have no tartar sauce. Also, the sandwich is salty. I called and the manager took my name so I can get another sandwich, but I think I'll pass. read more

I should have been warned when there were no cars, either in line at drive thru or parked. The order was immediately ready but must have been sitting on a warming rack for hours. Captain D's was the worst seafood experience I have ever had. Will never go back. read more

I randomly found Captain D's from DoorDash and then realized they have a drive through! The food is always fresh and flavorful, and the prices are pretty good too! I'd definitely recommend if you're looking for a quick seafood meal. They also have chicken for those that don't like seafood. read more

Great food Great Hospitality Fast hot food. Restaurant was clean . Attentive employees and whatever needed to be altered on the menu was not a problem read more

Went here for the first time today. I ordered the sampler and a cup of seafood gumbo. Everything was cooked to order so you have to wait a few minutes, but the food was fresh which I appreciate. I'd much rather wait and get good food and not something sitting in a heat lamp. The batter on the fish was the perfect saltiness. The chicken had a nice flavor and good crunch. My only knock was the gumbo was slightly over salted, but it had nice flavor. The customer service was excellent as well. I will definitely be back. read more

The best drive through fish place in area. The food is always fresh and warm. Portion sizes great. Prices are reasonable. Love the hush puppies and shrimp. Staff is friendly and the food was ready quickly. I have never had a problem. read more

Fish was perfect . Crispy and well done. Counter service was much improved. This is my go to place for a quick and hot fish dinner. It does have a fast food atmosphere. read more

This place is a hidden GEM! The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is so friendly. If you remember Long John Silvers, this will make you happy. This restaurant opened pre-pandemic so I don't think it gets the attention it deserves. Definitely worth trying this place out. read more

Very good. First time here. Basic menu, fried fish restaurant menu. Everything was fresh, hot, and good. The prices are comparable to fast food. Parking is free and close if you want to dine in like I did. The music isn't too loud. Mail a drive thru place, we were the only dine-in customers the entire time we were there. Staff is friendly and eager to help. read more

My family bought three fish dinners, $23! So delicious, clean, and the fish was so FRESH and cooked perfectly. The hush puppies were the best I've ever tasted. I was hesitant to try a new place but I'm only getting fish here from now on, read more

Captain D's - Grandmas fried shrimp and fish dinner, she couldn't finish it all! - Seafood Near Me - Clinton Township, Michigan

I drove by here a few weeks ago, and noticed this new addition. I've seen Captain D's elsewhere, but not local. They have a really good menu selection, and good sides with a really good cole slaw. Everything was fresh and tasty. They're just new so they don't show up on the corporate website and can't take the rewards card yet. The fish and shrimp were delicious, the chicken was good but not exceptional. This is a nice fast service option for seafood. read more

My friend told me about this place after a discussion about long john silvers so decided to try it out. Wow, its pretty good! Ive tried the battered fish meal, coleslaw is good, tried the fried clams, wasnt impressed with the mac n cheese though. Decent priced, quick and covid bonus drivethrough! Had it TWICE this weekend! read more

This is my favorite carryout restaurant! I love fried fish.. They have a great catfish. There is also senior specials and Cheesecake Factory cheesecake!. The place is clean, the staff is professional, and we even enjoy the music overhead. The food is always prepared deliciously and brought out by staff to ensure that we have everything we need. read more

Absolutely terrible. A decade plus ago it was a captain d's in Detroit on 7mile & meyers in the same parking lot as Home Depot. They closed unexpectedly due to licensing issues and was never opened again. I seen this location a few months ago and decided to travel 30 minutes to try. Ordered the fish and chicken with fries and hush puppies. Fish was very greasy. Extremely greasy as if they cooked it awhile ago and when a order is placed they drop it back in grease to imitate freshly fried fish. Same for the chicken as well. Tasted old and grease was literally dripping from my hands. 20 bucks down the drain STAY AWAY FROM THIS LOCATION‼ read more

We used to eat at a different fish restaurant with comparable pricing, but in a whim decided to try Captain D. It wasn't until our last bite that we read on the packaging that they established in 1969. They had many years to perfect their cuisine. I ordered the battered fish filets and it arrived on a bed of crunchy batter. This detail ensured that my fish stayed crunchy on the outside from the first to last bite. All food arrived HOT. Bf ordered breaded catfish and loved it. We both ordered Mac n cheese and it was tasty! Loved the green beans, fried okra, jalapeño poppers, and hush puppies. Ordered a gallon if unsweetened tea and it arrived as ordered. Most places deliver sweet tea (bleh). Fast prep. We found our new seafood restaurant read more

I hate to post a negative comment, but I was really craving fish and chips. The fish was soggy and had no flavor, fries were the same, limp and wet. Coleslaw was ok, but didn't have much flavor either. I usually only get fish during Lent at my local church so maybe its just me. read more

I loved the food! Very affordable & yummy. The employees were a JOY BUT the manager....he was piss poor to his employees. He yelled at everyone working. I would've given this place 5 stars but the manager made the experience blah. read more

I wish I could give them a ZERO!!! I ordered the fish shrimp and stuffed shells.. first off let me say this is not shrimp it's basically pressed meat when u remove the breading it's disgusting, the fish was HORRIBLE more breading than fish, the stuffed shells were also gross!!! Mac and cheese is watery and u can get better Mac and cheese from a box of velvetta!!! The green beans were the only thing half way decent!! Idk if they're a knock off captain J's or what but I wish I could get a refund.. if I would've eaten this in a restaurant I'd of sent it back and demanded my money back DO NOT EAT HERE ITS GROSS read more

Not very happy with this last visit. Over heard 2 of the employees making funny of how I ordered my food. If you are going to do things like that make sure the customer is out of the building first. Don't think I will coming back. And that is a shame because I really like the food. read more

Friend and I visited around 5:30/6ish on Sat, Jan 27. The young man taking orders, Treyvon, was doing an excellent job. While we were inside ordering our food (to go), he kept his composure while having to deal with a "Karen", complaining about not getting her receipt. While I can understand the frustration of not getting one, and very real fear of identity theft, her threats to call corporate and get him fired and the restaurant shut down were way over the top. She was making a huge scene. Treyvon handled himself well, trying to assist her while also waiting on an increasing number of people in the lobby. We didn't get to see the end of the show, as our food was prepared quickly, so we exited to partake at home. All prepared to order and was delicious. Was not expecting the dinner show, but again, shout out to Treyvon for his all around excellent service and handling of a difficult situation. read more

After eating here, we learned that the "D" in captain D's must stand disgusting or disappointment... To start off the meals were way over priced for what you get and they don't come with a drink. Then when we got our food the chicken was extremely dry, the fish was so over cooked that it was just a small chunk of meat inside a over fried batter shell and it was rubbery. The corn on the Cobb was cooked right but only tasted like boiled water. Then the Gumbo which had a good flavor and a bunch of undercooked rice which was hard and crunchy. The best thing I had in my meal was the 2 hush puppies included. Please save your money and your stomach and avoid this place. I should've known better than to eat at a place where the parking lot and drive thru is always empty. read more

Always great food! The staff engagement is friendly and professional. The place is clean but the dining room could be a little warmer. This is my favorite place for seafood read more

the food is always amazing and the staff is incredible. dining area is comfortable and always clean. love this place.

Good stuff. Cole slaw was lacking but good. Worth the trip.

The food is not consistent. Good one time, the next is old, dehydrated, over cooked, and been under heat lamps for hours. To be fair, we did NOT dinein. read more

There are few fish & Chips carryouts and this is one of the best. Because of Covid there is no indoor dining but the drive thru is great. Big menu boards in the drive thru so you can see what you can order. Prices are reasonable. I ordered the two piece cod with 2 sides (fries and cole slaw - both tasty. The fries are like steak fries and they are good too eat with the malt vinegar yum! Be sure to tell them you want the malt vinegar when you order. They tasted great. The batter on the fish was crispy. I recommend this place. I have been back there 2 more times. The staff are friendly and willing to try to make sure that you get exactly what you want. The drive thru line can be long but the wait time is not at all excessive as it moves along at a good pace. read more

Just opened on Monday and stopped today for a quick lunch. Got the 3 piece fish meal that came with two sides and hush puppies wonderful meal. Fish was good and fries and beans with ham very good also. ( my two sides) place was packed inside and in drive thru but quick service and friendly staff will be back read more

Really, really good food. Solidly salty. Great funnel cakes. The biggest problem is they can get super busy and can take forever to get food to you. A sufficient change of pace read more

Every time I order a fish sandwich NO TArter sauce it has nasty ass tarter sauce on it so I can't eat it! Today I went inside and was the only one in there and the girl even repeated my order and she said it correct but when she rang it up she added extra tartar sauce so the sandwich is extra nasty today!!!! read more
