Who can argue with fried seafood? One day out of the blue I got a craving for fried oysters. Being homebound with a newborn my lovely husband went to pick up a couple of captain's platters - a generous heap of fried scallops, oysters, jumbo shrimp, little shrimp, fish, hush puppies and some deviled crab. I ordered two platters for three hungry adults, plus three bowls of chowder, and there was enough food for dinner for all of us plus lunch for two of us the next day.
The amount of food is of course the star. The fried oysters hit the spot for me, and I also really liked the deviled crab. The only negative thing I would say is that the platter was definitely dominated by the little shrimp - I suppose it's the cheapest thing, but the plates were like 65% little shrimp. Yeah it was good but I'd prefer more of the other stuff. Eh, not a dealbreaker. The chowder was kind of mediocre.
Not very expensive at all, especially considering the massive amount of food you get. This might just be our standby local non-fancy seafood stop.
As of 2/26/12 their website is kaput but their menu can be found at allmenus.com.
