    Spicy Fish Sandwich
    J E.

    After living in the area for nearly 30 years and seeing this restaurant so many times over the years and it was always packed (drivethru always seems to have a long line) I finally stopped in on a weekday for lunch and they were packed, but I was promptly taken care of. The menu looks interesting, not juts the typical fried fast food fish joint, as they had grilled options too. I opted for their spicy fish sandwich and the picture of the butterfly shrimp appealed to me, so I tried their smallest quantity of those, which was 5. Total price for everything was under $10! Food came out quick and it was all piping hot! Looked fantastic, even the shrimp looked just like the picture! The shrimp tasted great! Definitely not the typical over-breaded fried fast food shrimp! The fish sandwich was piping hot, had to let it cool to eat it, but once I dug into it, it tasted great! Not much spice to it, for being labeled a spicy fish sandwich, but tasty none-the-less. The cole slaw wasn't very good tho, it was bland. The lobby could have used some attention, as the tables were in different ranges of cleanliness from crumbs to greasy or both. Overall - Loved it and would definitely return!

    2 piece fish, fries, hushpuppies and drink for $5.99 lunch special.

    It's been a minute since we've had Captain D's. Drive thru was super busy. It's still great, greasy, fast food. Lunch special: 2 piece fish, 2 hushpuppies, fries and a drink for $5.99. Everything was hot and fresh.

    The food was a good. I had the fried pollock fish and shrimp. Omg! The hush puppies are to die for. Broccoli was fresh. The customer service was also good. Very friendly staff. The ambiance was quite and not too crowded.

    Grilled salmon, green beans and coleslaw

    I stopped in for lunch. I'm trying to eat healthier,so I ordered the grilled salmon with green beans and coleslaw. The Lady who brought it out was lovely and quite concerned with me having everything I needed, The meal was excellent,the portions quite generous. I will highly recommend the place and will definitely return. The restaurant was very clean and welcoming.

    Went in right when they cracked the doors for happy hour, like we were afraid they might run out of…read morebarstools. Tried to order three different beers, and every one of them was "not available today," which is restaurant talk for "the truck's late and so are we." Artie the bartender just gave this little shoulder shrug that said, "Partner, I don't make the rules, I just open the bottles." The place itself helped the afternoon along. The building is laid out so you can see just about everything from your stool: bar, tables, who's coming in the door, and whether your food is on its way. Sightlines were wide open, nothing cluttered or cramped, and the whole joint looked super clean, like somebody actually cares what it looks like before the crowd shows up. So we did what any sensible, thirsty people would do: picked two other beers, ordered some apps, and decided not to take life--or the tap list--too seriously. The beer we got was cold, the food was hot, and Artie turned out to be the kind of bartender you come back to see more than you come back for the menu. We'll be back, too. Lewis would've gotten a whole column out of that shrug. The food was excellent, too. The fish bites alone just about made the afternoon; if the beer list had completely fallen apart, we still would've called it a win on those.

Since learning that, we have made our own oyster tradition and seek to have them in January because it can't hurt! I saw that Port Oysteria was participating in FXBG restaurant week which is happening now and thought it was a great opportunity for us to try someplace new and get our oysters. While we did not order anything from the restaurant week specials (there was only one at lunch, and a couple more after 3pm) my wife and I did enjoy a nice lunch today. The chargrilled oysters were just right for us to share as a starter and very tasty. My wife had the fried oyster po-boy and I had the blackened grouper sandwich; both were delicious. The coleslaw was good as was the Parmesan mashed potatoes. There is a good beer selection on tap and an interesting cocktail list. Our first beer choice was out, but our backup choices were good. Service was good but the restaurant was not very busy. The atmosphere is interesting with moody, dark painted walls and bold murals and a mix of '90s grunge and alt-pop music in the background. We definitely want to go back for dinner sometime and try more of the menu.

    My wife and I decided a long weekend trip out of town was in order, so we travelled to…read moreFredericksburg, VA for some quiet down time along the Rappahannock River. For dinner on our first night, we opted to give Brocks Riverside Grill a try and we were not disappointed. Our waitress, Mckewen, was super friendly and helpful with both ordering selections when both of us have Shellfish allergies and later pairing our entrees with wines. For starters, we ordered drinks. My wife ordered a glass of Chardonnay and I ordered a Spicy Margarita. We shared an appetizer of Crispy Brussel Sprouts and bread rolls that came with a delicious oil and garlic dipping sauce. The main dining area was sparsely attended by other dinner patrons, with large windows to one side overlooking the river. For entrees, my wife selected the Roasted Beet Poke Bowl which she described as "light and refreshing" and I ordered the 16-oz Marinated Ribeye, cooked to Medium along with sides of mixed Seasonal Vegetables (sliced Zucchini & Squash) and Redskins Mashed potatoes with an order of mushrooms to go on top of the steak. I also ordered a nice glass of Merlot wine to go with it. The portions were generous, and the entrees perfectly prepared, and very tasty. If there was any fault at all, it was that the ribeye was a little too laden with a ring of fat rather than simply marbled, but otherwise no complaints. For dessert, I ordered a slice of Key Lime Pie and my wife ordered Crème Brûlée. Both were appealing to the eye and each bite beckoned us to take another bite. It is certainly someplace we would go to again.

We both got a salmon salad and it was a nice large portion that was full of flavor. Would definitely stop back. Might need to get the fried chicken sandwich next time!

Nice place to sit and eat or they offer carry out. Staff/servers were great!!! Very attentive and helpful. It was our first visit and we got a free dessert, plus they ask if you'd like a drink to go. This place is a little hidden gem! My husband got a teriyaki chicken bowl and that came with two sides! The potato salad was so good I got a side to go! Definitely give this place a try.

    This was my third time at Fish N Grill (could've sworn I had written a review before but guess…read morenot), and I'm so glad we visited again. It had been over a year and, frankly, I expected it to be way busier for a Friday evening. Trying to beat the rush, we arrived around 5:30pm... cue eating with the seniors. Our waitress, Jennifer, was friendly and wonderful during the entire visit. While we were looking at the menu, she warned us the kitchen was backed up about 40 minutes, so that pushed us to put in an order of fried calamari. The calamari took about 10 minutes to come out, which was totally reasonable. The bowl of calamari was served with a side of marinara and spicy mayo. The breading (homemade) was nice and thick, not too greasy. The two downsides of it is that the calamari were overcooked, which led them to being rubbery, and the breading was a bit salty. Given Jennifer had told us the kitchen staff was training, we gave them some grace and ate the calamari anyway. For my entree, I had a combo platter. There's various combos to pick from; I chose the fish fillet and crab cake. You can choose between 4-5 types of fish (I went for flounder) and whether you want it grilled or fried. The crab cake was awesome and had very little filler. All platters come with 4 hush puppies (they were very good!) and two sides of your choosing. I opted for coleslaw, which was creamy and semi sweet but not much (I prefer that over the vinegar base coleslaw), and candied yams. My husband had the two fish fillet platter with a side of mac n' cheese and coleslaw. Overall, the food was super good. Despite the appetizer, we enjoyed our dinner and look forward to returning again.

Yes, there are "trendy" restaurants downtown with a larger and rotating, seasonal, or farm-to-table menu. But Olde Towne Steak & Seafood is wonderful. The steak is always cooked to perfection, the shrimp in the Shrimp Cocktail are ENORMOUS, the stuffed mushrooms are (chef's kiss), their cocktails (especially dirty martinis) are wonderful, and their prime rib is as big as an infant's head. The interior could use a bit of an upgrade. I went there for my Senior prom in 1990 and although it is still cozy and inviting -especially fireside-the clean, classic decor could use a bit of a perking up. No minor issues like decor can obscure the wonderful service! A LOT of servers in this area consider waiting tables just a job to be done and gotten over with and customers a nuisance. Whether they truly feel it or not, the staff here present themselves as practicing their vocation. But none of this compares to the warmth and personal attention of Mrs. Hyon Harding, the owner. Mrs. Hyon always greets you like you are a welcome guest - not a dollar sign. She takes the time during each visit to personally visit each table to make sure everything is to your satisfaction and you are happy. And it is not just some token "drive by." You can tell she really does care and wants you to have a good experience. All of this beats truffle fries and Mac and cheese, rosemary mashed potatoes, and "locally foraged mushrooms" in my book and always will.
