First time in my life I was told I couldn't have my fish crispy. And it was by the lady with a manager shirt on. She explained it's a timer. I said I mean could we just not pull it exactly when the timer goes off. To which she responded we dropping 20 at a time. 1 hour before closing I think. 2cars in the lot. Ordered the deluxe. Came out a bit lighter than golden mildly mushy. The skinniest 2 fish stick looking filets

Not sure what happened, when and why but they DEFINITELY switched the fish and jipped on the size as you can see. They fish used to be way larger and tasted better than what it did now. It isn’t even fried the same. A disappointment. Long John Silver’s if you’ve ever heard of them is better and they didn’t change the recipe or size of their filets

It was my first and final time a they closed there doors after I had food from them. The fish was fried perfectly and the hush puppies were just like my Gran used to make. I'll have to find another store to enjoy their food again.

It was a rainy Friday night, I missed my usual fish spot, so I drove past Captain Ds and thought no...then made a circle back, and I am so glad I did! I have not eaten Captain Ds in years. It was fresh and delicious!!! And the service was great!! Cheers to the two young ladies working extremely hard to service all the people. I got the Fish Sandwich and fries with 5 extra shrimp...plus the CHEESECAKE FACTORY OREO CHEESECAKE!!! OMG, DELICIOUS!!! My only thing was my fries were cold by the time I got home, no worries still a really great meal!

Got coupons in the mail. Luckily we looked it up on line, because the address it gives on the coupon isn't the address any more. It moved. The people are nice, not great, but nice. Food was good, fries were cool, not fresh made. We got the 2, three fish dish came with Cole slaw (great, n crispy) hush puppies (good) fries (cool not fresh) n 3 classic fish (good, crispy, fresh) All in all, good meal, good price for what you got. Paid $1.99, to add 5 butterfly shrimp (good). Will come back. They have a great senior prices for seniors, Wednesday and Fridays, I think those were the days.
