Seafood candy my g!!!!
Muz D.

Shoutiut to chimetime. My favorite food critic on youtube. He had this place on one of his shorts. And it looks so damn good. So I came in town to see a concert and I had to check them out. I like Greensboro it's a nice little town. I don't know what the Special Sauce is. But it is life-changing. It's the red sauce that come in little cups. But what you see in their pictures is exactly what your taste buds get. It seems not to be regular deep fried food. I can't put my fingers on it, it's either the seasoning or the breading but it is totally different than what I'm used to. It is perfectly seasoned with the perfect crunch to it. It really comes out on the fried whiting. please do yourself a favor and stop by. Even if you go out to eat somewhere else for dinner and you're in town, just grab a few things for a late night snack. If you're a seafood lover, they definitely have treats for you. wings are awesome. I thoroughly enjoyed the fried oysters. And the crab legs were perfect. When you walk in, it smells like fresh seafood from the door. I love that smell. I wish someone can encapsulate it in perfume one day. I wish we had more time. This is some place I will want to come for dinner. This was an in and out trip. Be safe out there. And be kind to people, you have no idea what people are going through. Love you.

Shrimp Broil with corn, potatoes, turkey sausage and shrimp.

Food is outstanding. Prices are fair. Variety has something for everyone. Anthony is a great cook and comes out to visit with customers when he has a minute.. Everyone is friendly! Easy parking. Clean and convenient! Coming back soon for the Oysters.

George's Seafood Hoagie
Zac G.

Once a rarity in Greensboro, the seafood boil concept has taken off during the past two years, and Seafood Destiny is a good exemplar thereof. An outgrowth of owner Anthony Knotts's backyard boils, the restaurant offers various combinations of crab, shrimp, corn, turkey sausage, lobster, and potatoes. Many of these items are also available a la carte, as are shrimp mac and cheese and green beans, and there are a few fish and pasta offerings as well. There's even a George Floyd Boil, whose proceeds partially go toward a college scholarship for African-American men. As tempting as a full-blown boil was, I opted for something better-suited for one person: the George's Seafood Hoagie. A lunch-only offering, its price tag seemed ridiculous ($18.95 for a sandwich?!), but the pictures shared via the restaurant's social media made it too tempting to pass up. While Seafood Destiny does offer online ordering, it doesn't operate in the way that you'd expect. Instead of selecting a pick-up time, you select a check-in time, and your food is made-to-order upon your arrival. While this ensures freshness, it is also likely to try the patience of the hungry, and I can only imagine what the wait times are without the order-ahead option. Fortunately, I didn't have a particularly long wait (maybe fifteen minutes after arrival), and the sandwich that I was handed by the friendly, hard-working counter staff was worth every penny. The best way to describe George's Seafood Hoagie is a po boy on steroids. It's a roll generously stuffed with shrimp and crab and lobster and pickles and slathered with spicy-sweet house-made red "Errythang" sauce. It comes with an equally ample portion of thinly sliced herbed potatoes. Hyperbolic as it sounds, every bite was bursting with flavor. This is not an easy sandwich to eat - you'll need two hands and several napkins - but it is well worth the endeavor. When you'll actually get your food is a guessing game best not played when hungry, and cheap eats these are not, but for the seafood connoisseur, Seafood Destiny is a must-try.

Big County platter. Insane...

I saw a couple reviews on social media and read the Yelp comments so I decided to take the 90 minute drive from Charlotte for the "soul" purpose of trying this restaurant. It wasn't a huge place but it has a welcoming appearance. Not a lot of seating so you may want to get it to go and have a picnic somewhere. I arrived right at noon on Saturday when they opened So I ate there. My thought process was to get in early before they start running out of stuff; and also, I may need the rest of the day to burn those calories. I was not disappointed. The food was phenomenal and the service was stellar. Great value for the money. A huge step up from all the steambag seafood places popping up in Charlotte for no reason. Everything was seasoned beautifully. The owner came out and introduced himself and we had a pleasant conversation. If you're either on a budget or want to splurge like I did you will have a great dining experience. Fried clams, hush puppies, lobster, shrimp Mac n cheese, fried crab cake, cabbage (not yet on the menu), fried shrimp, steamed shrimp, turkey sausage (thank you!) all 10 out of 10. Perfectly cooked collards but also not on the menu yet. Maybe too much vinegar for my taste but otherwise seasoned great. 8 Make an effort to get to this place... Great job to the team over there!

Benny Broil with shrimp, crab cake, bourbon salmon, turkey sausage, potatoes and corn

In an effort to break up our drive between Durham and Charlotte, we decided to eat dinner in Greensboro. I looked for places on yelp, door dash and Google. It was destiny that we decided to try this place. The commercial seafood boil places that have over saturated the market literally make me sick. I can't digest the food. We were wanting seafood and our hunger would have accepted average tastes, but fortunately for us, average does not apply here. The feeling and energy as soon as you open the door is, you at your favorite cousin's house that throws DOWN!! The staff and owner were so welcoming, fun and full of personality. The food was epic from the first bite. Real crab with real lump meat. And that erethang sauce that you can put on erethang is something worth ordering a bottle to take home. The shrimp were cooked to perfection, plump and juicy! Not over saturated with oils and fats, just perfectly seasoned! The owner, Anthony, came to our table a sat with us for a short while. He shared that his secret ingredient is love. I told him I could taste it! Y'all come out here and support Anthony at Seafood Destiny and feed your palate its dreams!

Jambalaya!!!  Spicy and so Yum

By far...The Best Seafood in Greensboro!!! Yesterday they offered Free Food for 1st Responders! This was a great event!! Mind you...I've eaten here before prior to this event and the food is Magnificent!! It was my first time trying Broiled Fish. Yes - I would get this again!! It was even better reheated for dinner. Everything melted in my mouth!! Thank You Seafood Destiny for what you do for the community...and for providing home tasting food.

I had the Seafood Shrimp Broil, and Hush Puppies.

I'm from Ohio and down here on business. I like to try different places with more of the mom and pop style atmosphere. Going in I wasn't sure what to think, but we hit the jackpot! The food was excellent, I had the Shrimp Broil. The staff/owner was great, very friendly and after finishing our meal we had a pleasant conversation. It is definitely a must try!

I really enjoyed the customer service here. We were greeted from the door and given the full breakdown of the menu. The owners and staff are very polite. I ordered a crab cake and unfortunately this was the last one bc it was truly delicious! It was flavorful, flaky and packed with crab meat. They have combined with another local lemonade entrepreneur and they sell that lemonade here. I went with the mango lemonade. It was delicious. All the food here was really good.Try the sauces here, they really pair well with the seafood. I d return even though it was a bit expensive. Portions are great though. More than enough for 2 meals.

Waddell's Crab Cake Broil
Amy U.

The food at Seafood Destiny is 5 stars all the way! I've had the pleasure of experiencing their food twice in the past two months and both times have been fantastic. The first time I enjoyed the George Floyd Broil; 2 snow crab clusters, 8 shrimp, two pieces of corn, turkey sausage, and potatoes. It was a hit and we loved it. This evening I had the Waddell's Crab Cake Broil; 2 crab cakes, 8 shrimp, two pieces of corn, turkey sausage, and potatoes. The crab cakes were good, I absolutely love the shrimp and the sausage (tastes like a mild kielbasa) and the corn is cooked perfectly. The red skinned potatoes are sliced, seasoned nicely and were cooked well. This time around we ordered some yeast rolls and they were so soft and very salty; we thought they were delicious. We also sampled the shrimp mac & cheese; the seasoning was good, almost like a Cajun spice and the topping was tasty. We all enjoyed picking at it. I really like this place, I'm looking forward to my next experience. Thank you!

Best crab cakes in Greensboro. All meat and well seasoned. Good flavor alternative to the other seafood restaurants in Greensboro. Milder non salty garlic flavors with a variety of dipping sauces if you want. I'm not a fan of the lobster tail. They bake it and it comes out tough and dry. But I enjoy the sliced potatoes and sausage. Asparagus and/or green beans perfectly seasoned and cooked. They are slow on service. I called in an order for one lunch special 30 mins ahead of time and still had to wait 20 mins after my expected time for my food. I don't know if they had multiple call in orders but I was the only customer in the restaurant. I will go back, however I will plan my time accordingly.

The fish was so flaky and the breading was the perfect about of crispiness. The collard greens were cooked well but were a little bland. Wish it also included a protein or something in it. The mac and cheese tasted a lot better than it looked. It was wasn't great but it was kind of what you'd expect of a fast casual spot. I really liked all the lemonade flavors they had. All of them were pretty good and I definitely recommend trying them out if you're not afraid of a little sugar.

It had been almost two years since we'd been to Southern Roots, and I remembered it being good, but…read morethis visit was even better. We had the burger and gluten-free risotto, and both were very good. The wine list is a strength, with plenty to choose from. Prices are a bit high for Jamestown, but the food and variety justify it. The thing that really stood out for us was the gluten-free options, which goes well beyond the usual salad and grilled chicken: cauliflower crust pizza, quesadillas on a gluten-free tortilla, risotto, and shrimp and grits, plus the meats, salads, and sides that are gluten-free anyway. You don't see that many real options on one menu very often. If you eat gluten-free, put it on your list; if you don't, the food and wine are reason enough to go.

We had a great experience at Southern Roots. Between the table, we tried the Gouda Pimento Dip,…read moreshort ribs, the Granny Smith salad with shrimp, and the crab-stuffed trout. Everything was delicious, although my partner wasn't a huge fan of the short ribs. The trout and salad were both excellent. The cheese dip was delicious. The sides were a standout, especially the Parmesan spaghetti squash, which I highly recommend. We had to put some extra salt on the sides, but that's purely personal preference. They also had several reasonably priced drink specials, which was a nice surprise. The service was amazing--friendly, attentive, and a big part of what made the meal so enjoyable. Overall, a really solid dining experience, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

This was our second visit here since moving to the area. To start, the servers were great! Very…read morefriendly and we were seated quickly. We ordered drinks and an appetizer and they came out fairly quickly. The Korean BBQ Spring Rolls are very good! Now for the not so good part. We ordered the fish and chips to split- that was all we ordered after the appetizer and it took forever for our order to be brought to the table. We watched a couple tables around us, get their food before us, and they had been seated after us.. The server had to go back and check on our dish a couple times before it finally came out. I will say the fish and the chips were fabulous, but the corn was terrible and should probably not even be included on the dish. It was WAY overcooked and chewy. The coleslaw left quite a bit to be desired as well. No seasoning, no flavor and was just bland. When it says wasabi coleslaw, I am thinking it is going to have a little bit of a kick to it but nothing. They could definitely save themselves some money by eliminating the corn from this dish, make the coleslaw an option as an up charge and could lower the price on the dish in general or add a third piece of fish instead of the corn and coleslaw. Overall, it's definitely the best fish and chips we've had since moving to the area, but I would order it with no corn or coleslaw next time.

We started out with cocktails. I had a Hendricks dry martini straight up (it was delicious) and my wife had a Don't Call Me Sweetie which is mix of Hendrick's Gin, Lemon, Cucumber, Basil, Simple, Saline 15. It is very citrus heavy, so be advised. She had them cut it with a bit of cranberry to offset the citrus. For main courses, my wife had the grilled salmon and she chose sautéed garlic spinach and wasabi slaw as her sides. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my side was blackened green beans. Let's talk main course first. My wife's salmon was terrific. Flaky and moist and very tasty. My shrimp and grits was unique because it was a real balance between large pieces of shrimp and the grits. Many times you'll order this dish and end up with a pile of grits with some shrimp sprinkled on top. This version is very tasty and a really nice balance of flavors. The Cajun seasonings have it some kick, but it did not overpower. The side dishes are where we had a couple of surprises. First off the sautéed spinach was really delicious, but my wife's wasabi slaw was bland. It's a huge shocker because when you see the word wasabi, you expected to have some Asian kick to it. This did not. It was hard to even identify that it had wasabi in it. That was a disappointment. The surprise was the blackened green beans. They actually were one of the stars of the show. Their flavor and texture was just awesome. We could've ordered a huge bowl of it and eaten all of it. While it didn't need it, there was a dipping aïoli on the side, just in case we wanted to add that to the green bean experience. As I mentioned off the start, Fishbones is a very casual experience. It's very pub-like in that way. We really loved it and the wait staff, which is a team approach as anyone who passes you makes sure you're doing OK, were kind, upbeat and helpful. Even with the bland slaw, we can't lower our rating because overall the experience was terrific. We will definitely come back.

I decided to try this spot…read more It took a few minutes for someone to acknowledge me at the counter, so I talked to the young lady waiting on her order. She had been there before and said the food was good and service wasn't too slow. There were no other customers eating in the establishment or waiting on food. A man came from the back, saw me and tuned around. Shortly after, another man came out and greeted me and asked how he could help. He seemed in a hurry, but I placed my order. The other girl's order came up and she showed it to me (see photo); she did purchase an extra piece of fish. When my food came out, I had a chat with Jack, who seems to be the one in charge. He's going through a lot with lack of workers. That explained a lot. He is very hospitable if you take the time to talk to him. I got home and sat down to eat. The Cole slaw was very watery- not my cup of tea. I was surprised to see purple juices from the purple cabbage that's in the cole slaw as well. I tasted my whiting, ordered as lemon pepper. I didn't taste lemon or pepper. I called Jack to make sure his cooks added the seasoning as ordered. He said it's a lemon pepper breading. I tasted the crispy hush puppies and they were great!

For $10, that was a lot of salad. The shrimp were cooked perfectly with the right amount of crisp to the breading. The season was flavorful. The only small bit of inconvenience was that I didn't know what to expect on it. There were tomatoes but I took them off. So in the future, I would call and ask. My husband ate them with my leftover so it's not big deal but they should add a description to their online menu. Also, he said they were friendly when he went to the restaurant. And it only took them about 20 min to make it so that was another big plus. I will definitely be ordering again.
