Crab cake, oysters, fish, okra, coleslaw
Kita B.

The food came out hot and fast. It was all fresh and all fried. It reminded of old school seafood restaurants. They also carry a variety of fish. The waitstaff were super warm and welcoming. You can eat in or take out. Food was worth the price, not expensive at all.

What a GEM!! 2 miles off I95 in an unassuming strip. Best fried fish, oysters, scallops, crispy, lightly battered and salted and over the top deviled crabs I've had in a long time. Cooked perfectly, crispy (not greasy) and tender (moist). The service was very good and the place was well kept and clean (the bathrooms could do with an update, needs a baby changing table). It's truly a hidden gem. Wish we lived nearby. We will be stopping by whenever we are driving by.

Wow!! Delicious seafood for a great price. Hush puppies and butter delivered immediately upon seating. I ordered the sautéed catfish and squash fritters. Delicious flavors and a wonderful experience. Will be back.

I was in Dunn to take care of some business and saw this place and didn't expect much. It is located in a strip mall and in a rather unremarkable location. The interior could stand a facelift. The food is mostly seafood if not all seafood. Do one thing and do it right. And they do! Lightly breaded and not overcooked or over salted. Even the coleslaw was to my liking, not sweet nor loaded full of mustard. Try the squash fritters. I have absolutely no other reason to go back to Dunn, NC other than to come back for dinner.

Deviled crab, boiled potatoes, fried okra

Immediately when you choose your table a basket of hot hush puppies are brought to the table. My meal was good, fresh boiled potatoes were a side. Senior meal all day is same as lunch portion for $8.99. A great little local place where everybody knows everybody. Service was very good!

Jim's Sampler Platter...it's so delicious, but you should definitely share this with a fellow seafood lover. LOL!!!

I have been wanting to try this place for awhile now, and I'm so happy I finally did today. Jim's Seafood is located in a little strip mall near downtown Dunn, and you can dine in or grab carryout. I wanted to try a little bit of everything, so I ordered Jim's Sampler platter with trout, shrimp, scallops, oysters and deviled crab. This meal also came with hush puppies and 2 sides. I ordered the coleslaw and squash fritters. Man alive, this is a lot of food!! LOL!!! But, I wanted to try everything, and pretend like I was on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives; so I attempted to conquer this mountain of fried food. The batter is very light and not overly seasoned, which I loved. I ate all of the shrimp, scallops and deviled crab, some of the trout, but I could barely eat anything else. Seriously, this is a ton of food for only $13.99!! I tasted the coleslaw, fritters and hush puppies, and everything was amazing. I unfortunately, did not get to try the oysters (but I'm not a huge fan of those things anyways). I will definitely be back, but I will order something smaller. If you love seafood, this place is a must!!! It's truly some of the best seafood I've ever had!!

Sides Slaw and Potato Salad

The quality has gone down with these orders over the last 3 months. We usually order once a month the family packs because who doesn't love a good Fish Fry-Day. I know with rising costs things have to change but we literally paid $3.99 for that side of shrimp. It's normally busting at the seams but I suppose this is no longer the case. I was truly disappointed with this order and hence this was our last. We will venture up the road to Lillington from now on.

Overrated in my opinion. Shrimp is not golden and crispy. Portions too small for the price they charge.

Ask the Community - Jim's Seafood Fresh & Fried

Would you suggest this place or Carolina Fish-fry?

Jim’s hands down. Carolina I had ordered chicken and it tasted horrible as it was cooked in same oil as fish. Their shrimp was chewy. So I prefer Jim’s.

So I'm gonna start off and say that the salad bar made me mad. We got seated and ordered and they…read morehanded us a small plate. I went up and looked the salad bar over, it looked amazing. Fresh and lots of items. I got myself a small salad to start and went back to the table to eat it. Server came around and I asked for another plate and he told me that my steak only included one trip. I didn't see on the menu in the tiny print that it was just one trip. Every steakhouse I've been to that has a salad bar has unlimited trips. Had I known, I wouldn't have wasted my trip on a tiny side salad. I put part of the blame here on the server as well. Service was slow and it wasn't busy. I should also mention that everyone ahead of me at the salad bar has never been to a salad bar before and didn't understand how it worked and that it moved in one direction... I got a ribeye rare and it was mostly rare. It didn't really have much flavor, not sure what type of grill they use but there wasn't any special seasonings or anything to make it stand out, no woody smoke flavor or anything. My side was kind of plain and a disappointment. I had planned on leaning on the salad bar when I ordered it. Dessert was pretty good though. I'd honestly get a steak down the street at Cracker Barrel over this place...1/3 of the cost and you're not gonna leave hungry like I did here.

Well for a steak house I will say the prices are reasonable. I ordered my steak medium as you can…read moresee it is well done. I wanted to send it back but the services was so slow I didn't want to wait any longer. The taste was okay but just soooo over cooked. The salad bar was my side option. You can go to the salad bar as one side. I must say. Yes. That was probably the best part of the meal. Lots of fresh ingredients. The Mac and cheese was good but was nothing to write home about. I can only speak on my food. But everyone had an over cooked steak. I went with coworkers. And kind of shares the appetizer. Shrimp cocktail was wonderful. Big shrimp. Juicy. Fresh. The grilled oysters. Where bland. Came out in a bowl. Not on the half shell like I had expected. The location seems nice inside. Clean. But very crowded.
