The best whole flounder in the Concord area! I easily eat off the fish for two meals and it's still crispy and delicious. The service is quick and ordering is pretty straightforward. They don't do a lot of substituting items and I was told they do not because it would make them less efficient. It works for them and it works for me too. They have a great product so need to change it. The ambiance is always busy, especially on Sundays, but it's totally worth the wait time for fresh food. read more

Captain Steve's - Sunday Dinner--Whole Flounder 08/31/2025 - Seafood Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

See all

I recently visited Captain Steve's Seafood, opting for the To Go entrance and ordering the flounder filet platter for $16.99. I was impressed with the generous portion size and found both the fish and hush puppies to be well-prepared and not excessively oily and no disgusting silvery skin peeking through to literally turn my sensitive stomach. The seasoning was bland. If you don't dip each bite in Tartar sauce there isn't a lot of flavor, at all. I would have loved a lemon wedge. I couldn't pass up the lovely desserts, so I tried the Tuxedo Cake for $5.99. The chocolate flavor was excellent, although I had anticipated a firmer more cheesecake like crust. My wait time was approximately 10 minutes, and the counter attendant was efficient. The ambiance is blah. Blue paint and a vaguely nautical tone. No bells and whistles, just there. The increasing tip pressure, particularly for take-out orders, has become very frustrating. This really detracts from the experience and I wonder if I don't tip, will they do something bad to my food? My concerns regarding the tipping dynamic are part of a larger issue. This place is just jumping on an already crowded bandwagon. Captain Steve's offers food at a reasonable price, and the service was prompt. read more

Captain Steve's - Whole fish plate with fries - Seafood Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

We were visiting the area for a few days and this place was recommended by a family member. We all met there and were seated quickly. Our server was quite gregarious, efficient and attentive. He kept our glasses full and managed our table of 7 with no difficulty. The meal started with the delivery of baskets of mini hushpuppies to the table while we waited for our orders to be filled. A few minutes later, the salads arrived. When the main orders arrived, I was amazed at the portion sizes! We ordered burgers, catfish, blacken salmon and perch. All of the food was delicious! it was well seasoned, without being overly salty. The fried fish had a flaky crust and was cooked perfectly. the blackened salmon was tender and good. I would have preferred a bit more blackening but I like it spicy. Did I mention the portions were huge? I have a large appetite and I was not able to finish all of my food, something that almost never happens. As we finished our meal and prepared to go, the server offered drinks to go. That was nice. Well done. If I'm ever back in the area, this will definitely be on my list of places to revisit. read more

The hush puppies were a great start the shrimp were good I think they needed garlic butter. The fries were greasy and the onion rings were good. The stuffed flounder was said to be over seasoned the potato and collards were good. The meals are way too big i order grilled for light meal it was good. But I would have liked my meal better smaller with less calories and less money. read more

Captain Steve's - Fried catfish, fried shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

Prior to going to Captain Steve's, I had only heard of it from my mom as she is a frequent visitor with her friends. Let me just say, I see why they visit so often. The food was sooooo good. The fish is so tasty and it's fried to perfection. They provide you with a substantial amount of food and I can almost guarantee you're going to ask for a box as soon as they put your plate down and as if you need anything else! While the food is great, just an FYI, everyone knows that. So, be prepared to bring an appetite but also your patience because it will be busy. The ambiance it provides a family type of outing and a chill experience. read more

Captain Steve's - Captain's platter - Seafood Near Me - Harrisburg, North Carolina

After eating lunch yesterday at this restaurant on April 9, 2026, and asking for my military discount and providing my identification as provide a week prior with no problem. But yesterday the manager Louie came to the table and was rude and aggressive toward me as he stated, "they do not give discount on lunch menu". When I told him I has receive one during the same time and location the previous week he became louder and stated, you shouldn't have", then walked off. When he left, I was still appalled at the way he addressed me. I soon left the table and ask the hostess for manager Louie again. When he reached me, I ask him could we step away from crowd of customers and informed him I was a disabled veteran and felt that he was loud and rude toward me as other customers were looking as his voice was elevated, he stated, "I talk to all my people like that". I responded, "I am not one of your people, I am a paying customer". He walked away never apologizing for his behavior or rudeness toward me. As a retired, disabled female veteran I have never felt so disrespected and unvalued in an establishment as a paying customer and veteran which served this country so proudly. read more

Been eating here for years and has always been very good. On 9-12-25 we went to eat there and noticed no tarter sauce or cocktail sauce on the table. Instead the waiter brought small individual cups of sauce to the table. They apparently changed the recipe for the tarter sauce and it was nasty. We will have to go elsewhere since the sauce was so bad. I am sure this will be a downfall for them. Why change a good thing? read more

Lunch on a Saturday afternoon exceeded my expectation. The parking lot was full. To my surprise we did not have to wait. Our server was busy! She did her very best to keep up with her section, no complaints. We ordered wings, fish and a fish platter. I ordered the salt and pepper seasoning for my fish. The pepper was a little over bearing but palatable. I will definitely return for the wings and blackened fish. read more

This place is outrageously good! The food was fresh and delicious. I prefer fried fish to be seasoned spicy. Their's wasn't spicy but it was well seasoned. The service received was excellent. Our drinks were refilled regularly and the hush puppies kept coming. We visited on a Sunday and while it was busy, we were seated immediately. I highly recommend a visit. read more

Captain Steve's is one of my go to restaurants for fried seafood. I've been coming here for years. They never disappoint. It's a family owned restaurant and they have one other location in Charlotte. The restaurant is always packed, but you never have to wait an extremely long time. There is a ton of seating and they cater to larger parties. It's very family friendly and a great spot to have a birthday dinner. They give you a ton of food, that taste good and won't break the bank. I also love that they have a separate entrance for to go orders and are very efficient and organized. read more

Always a lot of food! My party was not able to finish our plates. We were really full from eating too many hush puppies as we waited for our food. The food took a really long time to get to us. The restaurant was not even crowded. There was plenty of seating available for a Sunday afternoon. Our server was very helpful with our drinks and hush puppies. My biggest concern this trip was the time it took to get our meal. read more

I stopped here to grab some dinner while in the area. I've eaten the food here some years back, when they were previously Captain Galley's. So I decided to try them out again and they were still good. I opted for the fried jumbo shrimp and salt and pepper catfish strips, both of which were really good! I called in my order ahead of time, with only 10 minutes left to spare before they closed. Upon arrival within that 10 minute window, I did have to wait about 20 minutes for my food, but it wasn't a biggie. Captain Steve's is located on Highway 49 in Harrisburg. They have a huge parking lot, so there are no parking issues at all. I have even noticed the parking lot be full on other days when passing by, but it never seems seemed that it was an issue, but rather a positive thing. That means that the food and service are good, to have people coming back for more! As I waited for my food, many others came in to place an order, only to be told they were no longer accepting orders. Many people were upset, because they were getting no seafood that day! LOL! (Glad I called mine I earlier!) The staff was friendly and greeted me upon arrival to the ToGo! area, in the rear of the restaurant and parking lot. Although my food was not yet ready at the time, they did check in with me and provide an update that it was being prepared. I will definitely check them out again in the future and try another dish on the menu. read more

Large portions, great service at a reasonable price. I always have to box up meal when I'm done because there is so much food left.

First off, don't believe the pricing online because it is wrong. Thus, the reason why I called first. When I called the staff who answered the phone told me that there were specials. I drove 20 mins just to get there and be told that the specials are only ran sometimes. The ppl at the counter knew I was telling the truth because that staff member walked in and admitted what she had told me and they still wouldn't honor the price. WILL NEVER COME TO THIS PLACE AGAIN. The Customer Service was very unprofessional AND the to tell you the truth- the food have not tasted the same since the pandemic. Save your money and go to the family restaurant up the street. read more

So let me go ahead and get the bad out the way. The jumbo shrimp, although they were hot and fresh, they were not seasoned at all. You could have at least salt babe'd them a little bit. Everything else was awesome. The hush puppies was fried just right. Not too hard not too soft. You can actually taste the salt and pepper flavoring in the batter for the fish. I was full at this point so I didn't get around to eating my baked potato, but hey you can't really mess up a baked potato. This is one of my favorite restaurants and of course I will be back again. read more

Let's Be Real! sometimes being boochie about a place causes people to miss out on some really good food. Captain Steve's was more than I expected. I require good service, I enjoy good food, and if there's s an interesting twist in preparation.. IM Sold! This place accomplished all that and more. I eyeballed every dish that past by. All looked delicious and customers looked like they thoroughly enjoyed every thing. BUT, if you've not had their Greek Flounder, plus I added broiled jumbo shrimp, BayBay let me tell you, Finger licking good. I wish I had taken a picture, but honestly I inhaled my dinner. This place is casual and relaxed. Great portion sizes, reasonable prices for the family, and locally owned. YES Next visit, I'll update with photos prior to lifting my fork. lol Give them a try! They have two locations: Harrisburg and Fort Mill. My visit was the Harrisburg location, yet i'm sure the other is just as yummy. Enjoy! read more
