I haven't been to this place in years but man it hit the spot today. I got some fried fish, fried oysters, funnel cake fries, fried okra, shrimp and clam strips. The clam strips were ok.. the fish was great, shrimp was good and the oysters were pretty good. It's a decent price for the seafood. The fish is my favorite and I really love the hush puppies they are just sooo fluffy and crispy. The restaurant was nice and clean too. The staff were very nice and helpful. I'd come back for sure. read more

If they ever claimed to eat here because seafood is healthy, I'd call Captain D's "Nuts". However, if you do love your seafood breaded, battered, crispy and fried, then go and get yourself some of this stuff. Don't fall for their special stuff (i.e. any type of lobster, including the lobster rolls). Go here for delicious fried seafood. They use different types of batter/breading on different types of seafood. Probably not great for your heart, but your tastebuds will love it. The fried fish is good. They even have spicy fried fish which is built into the breading (think Popeye's). Still 4 stars after a few years of occasionally stopping in. And maybe one of the last once Culver's opens near me (their fish is amazeballs). read more

This location used to be fantastic and a great value. Started going downhill when I was given raw fish a while back and and had to drive all the way back to store. No apology and the employees acted like it was no big deal. I always order online to save time. Last 2 visits a new daytime cashier/order taker has made me come inside. No one was here when I arrived. Two people have ordered and left with their food since I've been here. Having to park and come inside erases the convenience of mobile ordering for me. I'm still waiting 20 minutes later! How long does it take to cook a pre-ordered fish sandwich? Never...coming... back. Update: I just responded to the link sent by the Business Manager...just like I did when I was served raw fish. Nothing happened then and I didn't even receive an acknowledgement or response. I'm not going to hold my breath. read more

We have been big fans of Capt D's for years. We lived close to one and would eat there maybe once a week (Sanford FL) We moved to Cocoa Beach and the closest is East Orlando. We have been there twice and never again. Prices are fair, the best thing is green beans and cold slaw. Fish was terrible. Dry and not the same fish as a year ago. I think it was Pollick. Shrimp down sized. The server gave us tartar sauce in small cups with lids. I opened on and it had separated and did not look safe to eat (made in store). I asked for other and received the regular Capt D's square tartar sauce. Also no forks. Spoons only. Workers were very nice and friendly-no issue with them. I asked what fish is used. It is Swazi which is cheap fish I would not buy due to some health warning I have seen. Do not know if this store or whole company. We were there during lunch hour and only one other customer came in!!! We loved the old Capt D's but you have lost this family. read more

Fish fillets are great tasting and the breading is perfect. You can't make fish at your house and turnout like this. No mess either. HUSH PUPPIES AWESOME!! I am a tartar sauce person and theirs is delicious. I drive from Melbourne. Wish we had ours back in Melbourne. read more

First time here. Wonderful and attentive service. Very reasonable prices. Pollack was good. Shrimp a bit over done but edible. Great coldslaw and good hush puppies. We will be back. read more

Pros: This place has good fish and seafood at a reasonable price, and there are some healthy options available. The service was super friendly.

People: Good Process: Good Product: Good Quality: Good Quantity: Good Value: Fair Cleanliness: Good Ambience: Good Timing: Good Attention To Detail: Good read more

Captain D's - Seafood Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Counter person was friendly enough. Bring back CASSIE HERRING! Now she ran an excellent store! Not sure where she went but she is greatly missed. Food came out pretty quickly and tasted good for the price. Lobster rolls were good when you're craving lobster. Clean inside. Bathrooms were clean, too. read more

Jalapeño poppers weren't tht great...was expecting cream cheese filling, instead of this yellow cheese goo...seafood gumbo was a joke! Probably the worst gumbo I've ever had in my life! Hush puppies were ok... Shrimp were alright... In no rush to come back but probably will to taste the lobster roll and their cole slaw... read more

This is an amazing restaurant! They have multiple seafoods to choose from as well as excellent prices. The customer service is excellent they're very pleasant. My favorite item on the menu is the stuffed crab deep fried. They have country fried fish which is magnificent. read more

Captain D's - Deluxe Seafood Platter and Kid's Popcorn Shrimp Meal - Seafood Near Me - Orlando, Florida

The food was overcooked and as much as it cost it should have not been this way. I got food from this location when it first opened and the food was much better. read more

Just left this Captain Ds and the manager at the drive thru was very nasty and rude. I have ordered from this restaurant several times and asked for nice rice on the grilled white fish and shrimp skewer meal. Unfortunately, they did not listen and added rice against my request. When I told her she said its mandatory to add the rice per corporate plus took forever with my order. Again, I have been here several times and requested to remove something and my request is granted. They really need new management at this place. Beware of horrible customer service, wrong orders and long waits read more

First time trying the food and I'm not disappointed . Very fast, tasty and fresh. I plan to come back soon for new food items to try. I'm glad I've tried them. I was looking for a good inexpensive seafood place.... read more

Wanted to try for the 1st time so we decided to stop by the drive thru. The young lady taking the order sounded frustrated and not very friendly. I ordered just shrimp, fries and mac n cheese. My son had a soda and churro fries. We were asked to pull up to wait for our order after we paid. Twenty minutes later I was given my food. I drove to the gas station and opened my bag. Sadly it did not even have a sauce to go with my shrimp and it was all lukewarm and with soggy fries. One star for the churro fries that were fresh. Definitely not coming back. read more

Captain D's - a tray of fried shrimp and fries - Seafood Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Giving one because that's the least I could give. Placed an on line order this evening and it indicated the food would be ready by 7pm. I arrived at 7:10pm and was told it wasn't ready yet. I waited with two small children in the vehicle until 7:30 and ended up having to go inside. I was told they were waiting on the Mac and cheese, meanwhile the rest of my adult meals where sitting on the counter well before I arrived. The employees were less than helpful and didn't seem like they were in any type of hurry to assist me. There were no one else in the restaurant and one car in the drive through. Once home; I was missing food and everything was cold. The Mac and cheese we were waiting on was extremely small and not hot. I don't understand why this place was so awful and the employees were not engaged AT all read more

Well there's clearly been a significant restaff since the couple years that I last came. I have stopped by multiple times within the past month & not only has the food & value still been SUPER ON POINT...literally everyone here was very pleasant & friendly to deal with. They now actually give you small town Mom & Pop vibes, despite it being a chain. What an improvement! 5 stars all the way at the moment read more

I do uber and i showed up to pick up an order at this location at around 10:05pm today and whoever was there that answered on the drive-thru was actually the worst. When we pulled up to the window she RUDELY says "UM we're CLOSED" with as much sas as you wanna add to that. and we said "yea sorry, we're just here for a pick-up. Not sure if you have it." and again, very RUDELY and surely trying to get rid of us says "UH, no we don't." and my boyfriend nicely still said "okay thank you" but i RUDELY let her know she was rude. i don't really want anything from this, just put her in the back to do the dishes or something bc she's not doing great in service. read more

So if you really want captain ds drive to west colonial or Sanford. This store doesn't care if you are missing food. Wants to add sugar to already cold sweet tea (as if it would newly). After acting like they couldn't believe I wanted my food remade correctly I told them forget it. Just refund my money. Ummm nope. Made me call corporate who after 3 weeks never contacted me. Thank God discover understood and reversed the charge.. And I was polite. They had everyone in the lobby looking at me and as I walked out the other patrons smiled and nodded their heads. I will never go back. read more

It was super quick to deliver from here!! My order was picked up and ready within 10minutes and arrived at my place within another 15. I ordered the 2 piece fish with fries and coleslaw as my sides. I also ordered a fried shrimp/clam strips appetizer. Everything was just so flavorful and satisfying!! I would come back if I ever was in the mood for a seafood fry again. Super yummy! read more

This was my 1st time back here since they reopened after sooo many years... After waiting for what we thought was for fresh made food everything was nice and hot except the Mac n cheese. :( but even with it being cold - no warmth to it at all - it was still good. My soda that I had to pay for separate because it's not part of their $10 meal was gross and straight up carbonated water. I'll still go back and give it another try! read more

Was excited to get a captain d's in the area. Have eaten here several times now and the food is fresh and hot. We usually get a family feast with a mix of items for the whole family. We love the fried fish, huspuppies, and 'cracklen' recommend and will return read more

It's FINALLY open! We decided to try Captain D's and they did not disappoint. Captain D's is definitely a take off on Long John Silver's, but much less greasy. The staff at the drive-through were very friendly, however it did take a little bit long to get the food...but I'm sure they're still working out kinks.I decided to go with their chicken with corn, french fries, and hush puppies. My other half decided to go with the catfish feast with green beans, mac & cheese, and french fries. We will definitely be back! I couldn't even finish my meal! I also had to get a cheesecake, because no meal is finished without desert. Can't wait to try something else!! read more

I respond yes & POLITELY point out I'd like CAPTAIN D's CATFISH & SHRIMP $4.99 PLATTER...BELOW IS THE BS HE BROUGHT BACK AFTER STATING HE CHECKED THE BOX BEFORE LEAVING! My damn hush puppies are on steroids & they gave me six! The fries are half frozen still! Shrimp is overcooked but they gave me six! WHAT THE FUQ IS GOING ON WITH THAT PIECE OF FISH? It's the size of my damn French Fries!!! THIS IS WHY I DONT LIKE OTHERS GETTING ME FOOD FROM OUTSIDE MY KITCHEN! Who accepts that half ass piece of fish?!

New Location, were only taking to go orders. Food was great as Captain D's usually are good. The new place smelled like mold, floor was slippery with grease. Very nice people with fast service. read more

Reminds me of a place from my hometown, Long John Sliver, food is delicious and employees are allll super nice! Will be back again

I used to go here with my Dad, and when it re-opened, I was ecstatic. I took my son for the very first time, and he loved it. Customers for life.....third generation. Everyone was super nice, and I had a pleasant conversation with Ms. Herring the manager or GM or Proprietor ( I forgot). She was awesome, and is definitely a reason to return. Everything was fantastic. My only suggestion is to come up with a meal or snack that comes with a beverage. We cannot wait to return read more

Waited 10 years for Captain D's to return to this location. Worth the wait. Food is tasty and good value. Place was spotless. Was busy when we got there but slowed while we were there. Tables were always cleaned promptly when people left. Service was very friendly and they seemed to want to go out of their way to help. They were really focused on ensuring everything was good. Will definitely return! read more

This place has some of the best seafood you can get via drive thru. I usually order a dinner platter and that has enough food to satisfy me for the night. The quality of the food is superb, and they are reasonably priced. read more

Will they have cleaned the place up nicely. The food needs so me help. It's fast food seafood which tasted like it was sitting in warmers most of the day. The fish planks were so greasy the breading was soaked in grease. Shrimp were cold and chicken was dry. Not very impressed. read more

Soooo excited to see this restaurant in the area! Manager and staff are hustling to make sure everything is hot, quick and good. Place is very clean and you can tell everyone who works there is working hard to give you a great dining experience. read more
