We just happened to be in the area and I had always wondered about this place. Went on Yelp and found a smattering of reviews and not very many photos so I wasn't sure if I wanted to try it. I still remember the days when there used to be Long John Silvers around and occasionally I'd get that craving for their fish combos with the hush puppies and crispy bits. You'd smother it in malt vinegar and mmm mmm good! So with that in mind we decided to be adventurous and I'm glad we did! It was almost like Long John Silvers and they have these $6 specials with two sides that are pretty filling and good! While we were there the place filled up so there are many locals that like this place obviously. The staff was pleasant and efficient and the dining area spacious and clean. It looks like this place has been around a long time but it's good to know there's a place like this close by in case you get that craving! If you know what I mean. Check it out! read more

I found a Captain D's! And, it was awful. This is probably the worst seafood on the planet. Maybe, Long John Silver's is worse. I'll try them too and find out. read more

captain ds has always been good. not complaining about the food, just about the big overweight man that takes orders and hands people food at the window. he's extremely rude and acts like he would rather die than be there. it's captain ds, like i'm not asking for princess treatment but i also shouldn't be treated like it's the end of the world for him to take my order. greeted with "what do you want" in the ugliest and meanest tone ever. once i got to the window the sweet girl took my money and then he came out after her and slammed the window open, forced my bag of food out the window resulting in my food falling out everywhere in the bag, and said "here" all mad like i did something wrong lol. mind you i am so nice to every worker and talk in a sweet tone and say please and thank you. i work in customer service and i would never in a million years speak to a customer like that. this is literally what makes me never want to come back. yall need to fire him and promote the sweet girl that took my money at the window. i'm sure im not the only one hes been ugly to read more

This fast-food seafood spot was a wonderful surprise! The fish was crispy, fresh, and flavorful, the service was quick and friendly, and the prices were great for the quality. I'll definitely be coming back for another delicious meal! read more

I saw the Captain D's fish sandwhich on social media and was excited to try it. When I placed my order today the lady was breathing hard like she was mad. However she was nice when I pulled up. I took a couple of bites while driving on my way home, and IT TASTED BURNT!!! I didn't have time to turn around. Here is a picture of the bun...OMG!!!! I guess everyone's mad that worked today 7/31/2025 @ 7:25 PM. Do better, and if you don't like your job get another one!!! read more

Captain D's - Seafood Near Me - Rosenberg, Texas

Very fresh fish & fries . Highly recommended !!!!!! !!!!!!!!! what else can you say about a fast food restaurant

My review is based off my order via DoorDash. We ordered whitefish and shrimp platters Chesapeake style as well as wild salmon Chesapeake style. The sides we tried were breadsticks, rice, broccoli and green beans. It was a solid meal. Nothing was over cooked and there was decent seasoning throughout. This wasn't a gourmet meal but it was the perfect weeknight meal when you don't feel like cooking. I'm happy they offer a wide selection of grilled meals. read more

Drove in around 7pm today. Walked to a shout "Take Our Only!!" rudely.. So ordered and she said what sides. I said the ones on them, got an ugly look .. I said sorry you can't see the pucture.. Proceeded to order and sat there for half an hour waiting an watching the employees getting food delivered to them like 2 times. just worrying about themselves.. other customers came in and were complaining.. Hours say 10:45 am to 10 pm. How can they stay in business wit this lack of caring probably just want to leave earl and drove back by at 8:30 just to see that they had closed!! This is aweful!! Wasnt this aweful 2 years ago! wont be back or recommend!! read more

First I want to express my concerns on the inside of this restaurant. The air vents are filthy and restrooms need to be updated and thoroughly sanitized. I do enjoy the fish just wish the place was clean. read more

On my way to Houston we stopped in for some seafood. Well, the food was horrible!! Ordered fish n shrimp. Food was not thoroughly cooked and was just plain awful. The restaurant was established in 1969 and looked its age. Someone please take a wrecking ball and put it out of its misery. Just plain horrible!! read more

This location should close down. The service, food, and STAFF were all HORRIBLE! A heavy set Hispanic lady, with facial piercings took our order.... her customer service was fine. The receipt read "GS: Genera"-I don't know if that's a typo or her name. Another Hispanic girl (lightweight, little girl) was upfront maybe expediting the food-she was probably the rudest person I'd met in my LIFE! My husband asked for ketchup packets because the dispenser in the lobby was empty.... she handed him a handful, since fell on the floor he asked that she not give him the packets that fell on the floor, she got an attitude. The food took FOREVER to come out; the fish and hushpuppies were hot, but the fries were cold. I asked how long would it take to get hot fries, this rude lil girl did bring the fries back up here and I'll get you hot fries. I said just let me know when they're ready and I'll bring them up here, so that i can eat my fish and hushpuppies while they're still hot. She said you can bring it no. I asked if I could talk to her right quick, she said, "whassup?". I asked if there's an issue because she's been nasty since coming to the front she replied, "I don't have an attitude, you want a manager? ". When the manager came upfront she was in the back yelling and cursing saying that she doesn't have an attitude. I don't think he was the manager, but he was a kind guy and said he'd talk to her. After reading some of the other comments, it doesn't seem like the feedback changes anything because some feedback is the same. That means nothing has changed! The restroom was nasty, the staff was nasty, and the kitchen was probably nasty. Y'all don't have to worry about me returning. I'll go to another location, but will NOT be returning. read more

Closing the dining room down an hour early and only taking To go orders is not good for business. They claimed they were understaffed, but this is the third time they have claimed this when we have come for dinner. read more

I love this place. The food is always awesome and the customer service never fails!!! I think I'm about to head there for dinner. Fish and chips!!! GO GET IT!!! read more

Heavy set Hispanic with piercings took my order and I expressed I could not read the menu under family items and she refused to tell me the count when I got to the window I asked to add rolls to my order she walked off and said I'm not dealing with them. A Hispanic dude appeared at the window in a apron saying we had to go back around the line to order rolls and there was no one in the line. He seen me pull up yelp on my phone to leave a review and he made a comment about not caring if I left a review. Then a short Hispanic girl with red hair came to the window screaming , he tried to close the window on her and she continued pulling it open in a threatening manner and she called me a B*TCH. read more

The food is decent, but the customer service is terrible. They rush you through trying to tell them your order. Very impatient and the girl at the window is very rude and acts like she doesn't want to be there. I got every kind of sauce in my bag That there was without asking. I ended up with honey mustard, ketchup, cocktail, tartar, and ranch dressing. Such a waste. I only use tartar and vinegar. anyhow, my complaint is on customer service. Every time I come here I swear I'm not going back and I wait a long time and then it ends up being the same. I'm pretty much done with this place because food is too expensive these days for terrible service. read more

The southern fried white fish is the best. I only gave it 4stars because when the customer service is just ok. I tried to call my order inn didn't know the exact name but I tried to describe it and was told there no meal with just one piece of fish and two sides. I tried to explain that it's the third one on the drive through menu but they kept saying I can get two fish one side but not one fish two sides. I just got up and went through the drive through and got EXACTLY what I wanted one piece two sides for 8.41. It's worth the price and the drive. Oh and the chocolate cake is the best fast food restaurant cake on earth 01/13/2020 Yesterday I gave them 4 starts today I'm taking ALL of them back. I tried to call in an order, the lady said it will be ready in 10 minutes I get there and then I'm informed that they don't cook it until I get there, so what was the point of taking my name and order and telling me wait ten minutes? Both reps looked at me like I was stupid and I should have known this. read more

Great customer service food is always fresh! The sweet tea is amazing Highly recommend read more

Captain D's - 2 Pieces Batter Dipped Fish & 6 Pieces Butterfly Shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Rosenberg, Texas

This spot is a classic. Been going here for a while and I just can't get enough of the delicious fish. Hush puppies are a must and they aren't hard like some other places. The staff are friendly and are always helpful. I do recommend coming here with the family or if you want to try something new. read more

I have been going here since I was a kid. Good food and friendly workers. Dining room could be a little cleaner. Food is always nice and hot and what seems to be freshly fried. They have some amazing Tartar sauce. It's just different from other places. read more

I did have to wait longer than expected at the drive through. But it's ok, my food came out hot and fresh...I'll wait a little aslong my food is fresh. Fish was crispy outside, soft inside, hush puppies were hot and my corn was good as well. I must have caught them on a good day comparing to some of these mixed reviews read more

The service is slow and took almost 20 minutes to receive my food.very unprofessional I was in the drive through waiting for my food and inside was someone fighting and nonstop cussing VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!! read more

Service after 4pm is trash M-F!! Terrible customer service and don't ask for extra condiments from none of the folks, they act if they work at McDonald's. 5 pieces of fish, gets you three tarter sauce and 1 malt vinegar, and you want ketchup 1 packet with a side of hood rat eyes when asking for more. Really, do better Captain D's do better. Been this way for past year. I'm done bitting my tongue. read more

So I like clams....and there are not a lot of places to get fried clams that don't cost an arm and a leg. I was willing to try Captain D's. The service was friendly and polite. But the restaurant was not clean. It wasn't that it looked like the staff hadn't tried but, more like they rubbed things down with a wet cloth. The floor was sticky, the counter was grimy and the tables were much the same. While waiting for the food I went into the bathroom to wash my hands and came right back out. The food was paid for so we stayed....but it was not good, which was sad because I really wanted those clams. I think the oil was old, everything tasted the same and that was not...good. Even the drinks were off mixture, so you got more soda water than drink, making them bitter. I tried the tea and it was old and blinky. We won't be back. read more

Five stars for the service, courteous and friendly folks that worked at this location. Greeted with a smile, brief friendly chat of how I was doing, accomodable with my requests for multiple sauces, and meanwhile the place was pretty busy. It's fast-food seafood. Think about Long John Silver's... in fact it reminded me everything I ever remembered growing up that was Long John Silver except for the ocean murals on the wall and a pirate hanging out somewhere. The fish tasted fresh, the way they crisped/fried the batter was awesome. Everything was light, airy, crispy, and tasted fresh. The batter mix at the bottom was a great addition. The hushpuppies, dare me if I say, were the best I had ever. It was super soft in the inside and nicely fried on the outside. Just the right amount of crunch where you wouldn't cut your gums in your mouth. The Chicken Crispers were my least favorite. I still think Long John Silver's (LJS) Chicken Planks were better. Oh and I'm comparing this against other fast-food Seafood joint's like Arthur Treacher's and LJS. The corn on the cob was pretty sweet, fresh, and hot. I drizzled it with butter once I got home. The fried okra was also fresh and went great with the ketchup. The condiments such as tartar sauce and cocktail sauce were fine. The malt vinegar was ok. I still prefer the Heinz brand. Anyways, I'd definitely go back. This beats having to drive out to god knows where to find a LJS since most of them shut down. Believe it or not this is the only one that is in Houston according to their website as many of their own locations also shut down. Maybe it was due to the Cod Wars but I thought that was in the 70's. Well in the end it's good to see this is still doing well since many seafood chain venues have all suffered immensely in the past decade due to low sales and less marketing support among other factors. Sorry for the rant but enjoy the food. read more

We drove twenty miles to get Captain D's for my Dad because we don't have one in our area. Upon ordering we were asked if we were getting it to go, after answering no we were told that the dining room was closed. This is at 7:30pm, sign on the door says open until 10. The cashier told us that are short staffed and closing early. There were at least 5 employees in the building that I could see and no other customers. The employees laughed and shrugged their shoulders when we decided we would just take our business elsewhere. I would suggest hiring employees that represent your establishment in a more professional manner. read more

How do you rate a fast food fish place? Do you compare it to a nice fish restaurant? I didn't expect much, and I wasn't disappointed... According to my expectations that is, which again, wasn't high. We got a family platter that included; hush puppies, fries, stuffed crab, fries shrimp, cold slaw and fried cod. It was like everything was sitting under a heating lamp for a while, which it probably was. Hint: anywhere that has fried everything... Yeah, stay away. But hey! It was cheap! read more

Came here last night for dinner. Got fish (of course) as did my kids. We ALL ended up with bad stomach issues - food poisoning. So heads up and eat here cautiously. read more

I wish I could give it a 5. I grew up with Captain D's. It was always better than LJS with their pressed fish. Then all the Captain D's in Houston closed. Sad day that turned into sad years. I detoured off of I10 to drive 7 miles to get to a Captain D's in Mississippi on a vacation. Yup, I like it that much. So when I heard this one existed I made the drive from Houston. (Much closer than Mississippi). The restaurant looks like it is in a small town and is run on less than fully funded budget. The lady behind the counter was very hot/cold. Some people got a "hey baby" and others just a "can I take your order". The menus looked mostly the same so ordering was no problem. Now the fish. What the hell happened to the big pieces of whole white fish? What I got was about the width of two thumbs and 6" long. The taste was good but wow! The sides were smaller and pre-packaged. When I got to the table with my tray I had a styrofoam plate with two styrofoam side containers and a plastic wrapped fork sitting on a plastic tray. The institutional look was disappointing. When that fish urge hits I may come back on a Wednesday night for all you can eat fish. read more

I have had a pretty long day driving to who knows where, and I was tired. So for dinner I decided to go to Captain D's because I wanted it quick and there were no Long John Silver's nearby. Interesting tidbit I noticed was that these two restaurants have coincidentally been closing many of their chains lately. But anyway....there parking is ok coming from Avenue H, but coming from Miles St. the parking is SO awkward. Not only is it really close to the street, but the lines are so faded that it's hard to see. Not really sure wherever I parked was even a parking spot? The restaurant was very clean and the staff were very friendly. I had baked fish with rice, along with a baked potato, mac and cheese, and bread for sides. The mac and cheese was, quite frankly, the only thing that tasted awesome! The fish and rice were bland, the baked potato was just ok, I guess I should have gotten sour cream after all, the bread tasted like it was actually a donut but without all the sugary stuff. EWW!!! I can't really be too surprised though, since it's a fast food restaurant, but everything was just ok as a whole and I was still satisfied. Still I think I should probably stick to fried fish when I come back next time. Oh and uh...I'll walk from a better parking lot next time. read more

It's been 10 years since I visited this Captain D's in Rosenberg, Tx. In 2006, after that meal I promised to never return. This evening, bored with other sub-par options in Rosenberg, I gave Captain D's again. I was extremely pleased with the quality of food and will definitely will return in the near future. I did choose the drive through, a bit of a wait, but well worth it since the food was fresh and hot. Good job! read more

Really really dirty. Last time my family and I went the service was really great, however there were roaches in almost every corner ! Spider webs too, tables were sticky as well. Not exactly appetizing when you're in the mood for some seafood. read more

This Resteraunt is ok. My food arrived on time and was palatable. The decor was uninteresting to say the least, but the real problem I have with this Resteraunt is the name. I mean come on! We all know D is no captain! read more

Kinda funky smell when you first walk in, but the food is yummy, it reminds me a lot of Long John Silvers! We had a three piece fish meal battered with fries and a side of awesome okra! The store needs a paint job inside and out. I would definitely come back in the future. read more

What to say... Looks like a dive because it is a dive. One that I wont frequent but if I am in the mood for fish I will come to Captain D's. The people were friendly and accommodating. Shrimp I have had better probably best to pass on it less you like low quality shrimp. I know I wont order it again. Same goes with there country battered fish. Seemed like a corn meal batter but I did not like it one bit. There regular batter is very good. Fries well not to bad about on par with a Long John Silvers. In fact the food seems like a Long John's knock off. Cooking fish is an art form that eludes me and also this place as well. there is a very fine line between under cooked, cooked to perfection and over cooked. Under cooked fish is easy to spot its fleshy and not very hot. Cooked to perfection will always be white and flaky. Over cooked fish will not be white and flaky but it will be translucent and very hot it turns this way because the fish gets steamed in its batter and thus is mushy. 6 out of 7 pieces I got where over cooked and 1 was cooked perfect. That being said I would still return when I am craving Long Johns because I am not willing to drive to a Long John's. read more

Great tasting food! We need more of these in Houston. I always have the 2 piece fish and popcorn when I come here. Prices are reasonable and staff is nice. read more

Captain D's - Seafood Near Me - Rosenberg, Texas

I'm still trying to find a "good" (NOT "GREAT" AS THAT WOULD BE TO MUCH TO ASK FOR) place to eat in this city. Recently went to Captain D's in Rosenberg and yes I read the reviews before we decided to go but hey I was desperate for some fish granted I have not seen a Captain D's restaurant in over 30 yrs. I had some fond memories of the famous seafood platter, so off we went to recapture my childhood - unfortunately like most things - Captain D's has changed. True to most of the reviews this place is a dive (not in the good way) while the staff was pleasant, attentive, and polite the restaurant was DIRTY like you don't want to touch anything DIRTY. The food was not how I remembered it - (It use to taste good), surprisingly the stuffed crab shells did taste better than the one's we had at Pappadeaux it actually had some crab meat. Sadly Captain D's has made the list of places I will never go to again... read more
