Primarily a takeout place, there are simple plastic tables and chairs for eating there. What makes it is the food. I had haddock that was thick and flaky well battered and fried to perfection. Chips (fries for the uninitiated) were crispy exterior with soft pillowy interior; just the way they should be but seldom are. Fresh out of the fryer with no delay under a lamp they were steaming hot. Wife had crab cakes and onion rings which were also great (but my fish was better). Price was a little steeper than I expected, and restroom is tired and worn.

This is a place that needs much TLC, in other words it's a dive. If you overlook the dirty table…read morethat we had to clean up and the faded decor then there's some hope. You order at the counter and then they deliver it to you. Hubby got a huge piece of Haddock with fresh fries. The fish was fresh as it was flaky. I tasted a bite and agreed that he won. My crab cakes were overly fried but substituting onion rings was a good idea. Not as good as I expected but a lot of takeout. We didn't have the option to do so but if you come here, lower your cleanliness standards. . .and get the fish.

We ordered Combo B snow crab legs + shrimp and added green mussels to our order, chose the Mr. Boil Special sauce, Spicy! Sooooo good! We asked to order side of white rice with our meal, and they do serve white rice, which was an additional order. Only con I see is it is a bit on the pricey side, but we were celebrating our anniversary, so it's a nice little once in a while treat. We will definitely be back, it was so worth it. Seafood boil was so delicious, that by the time I remembered to snap a photo of the food, we were half way through eating it, it's that delicious!!! Definitely recommend, and we will be back again in the future.

I got the spicy heat with the house blend seasoning for my crab and it was out of this world. Perfect, imo. Spicy but not obscenely hot. The whole restaurant has a great vibe.

It took us 10 months to purchase some seafood from Captain Harrells, but we did it today! I wanted…read moreto pick a time that it was not crazy crowded. I wanted time to read the board and learn how they are operating due to covid. I loved their set up. You pull up, park and get out of your car to look at the whiteboard menu closer. Once you know what you would like, head to the door and knock. Someone will open the door and take your order. So simple! TIP: CASH AND CHECK ONLY! Today I had a sweet lady take my order and package it all up. She wore a mask the entire time, as so did we. She was helpful at showing us what a deviled crab looked like, and help explain other items. I really appreciate that she took the time to do that. It makes me want to come back and purchase more when businesses do that. There was also an older gentleman inside enjoying a crab cake sandwich. He had the biggest sweetest smile ever. He was a happy a can be with that sandwich, and I was definitely jealous! The crab cakes were delicious. I'm making something with the meat on Friday. Just not sure what yet. Another little bit of information, they have a restaurant that opened a few months ago. They have good food! It is just down the street near the Food Lion.

Used to be the best seafood in Hampton and Poquoson…read more We go here a few times a year for special occasions or just to splurge on what used to be a fantastic restaurant. The place is usually packed with people, but the restaurant was almost empty at dinner time. I could not figure it out until my meal was brought out to the table. It explained why the restaurant is no longer busy. Went tonight for my birthday and it was a big disappointment. I ordered the special Grilled Rockfish and Shrimp for $30.99. My friend ordered the crab cakes for $39.99. The rockfish and shrimp had so much salty and foul tasting red seasoning that the only taste was the seasoning. Rockfish is delicious and the only seasoning needed for cooking is some butter, lemon, salt and pepper. Why would any cook (I say cook because they do not have a chef) ruin delicious piece of fish like rockfish by completely covering the fish in some seasoning that is meant for crab boil. The only reason restaurants use heavy seasoning are when they want to cover the taste of seafood that is not fresh or they have cooks that do not know how to properly cook rockfish. I could not tell if the rockfish was fresh because the only thing I could taste was the seasoning that was caked on the fish in a thick coating like a dry rub on ribs. I took two bites of the very small 4 oz filet of rockfish and had heartburn and indigestion. The 6 shrimp were small 50/60 count and were rubbery with no flavoring except the seasoning. The rockfish meal was $30.99 and the only thing I can say is the broiled fish dinner at Captain Ds for $10 beats the meal at Surfrider hands down. My friend had the crab cakes which she said were very good. She could not eat the collard greens because she said they were so salty that they were not edible. The cucumbers in vinegar side was also unlike any cucumber salad I have ever tried and I don't mean that in a good way. Good service and ambience but that still does not raise the bar above 1 star. Probably not the worse seafood dinner I have ever had but it definitely is the worse dinner that I had spent $100 on.

Our first time to Yorktown and had no idea what to expect. The riverwalk area was short but nice…read more What made it great was this restaurant. The restaurant was busy. We only waited about 15 minutes. But the view of the water made the wait enjoyable. The atmosphere was appropriate for a casual place. Lots of dark wood, a bar, booths and, I assume, faux copper ceiling tiles. We were seated in a high table near the window with a view of York River. Our server was great! She helped me make a choice of beer. The double IPA was citrusy which I like. I was torn between the fish tacos, a loaded baked potato with "famous" chili, or grilled crab sandwich. She said beyond a doubt get the tacos. She was so right! I love fish tacos. The Booming Tacos, an off-the-menu item, was over the top. I mean there was so much rockfish it was over the top of the grilled flour tortilla. The moist blackened fish pieces laid atop spring mix and drizzled with a creamy spicy boom boom sauce. My husband had the Rachel, a turkey sandwich on rye with Russian dressing and coleslaw, it came with french fries that seemed to have a bit of a coating that made them very crunchy. Everything was great. If ever back in the area, this will be the place to eat.

Had to add salt and pepper to taste anything and then just didn't even eat 1/2. Paid an extra $1 for cheese and onions on top. I'm talking bye 7 little cheese pieces and the same with tiny onions. Their clam chowder was salty. And other than the fried seafood, it wasn't worth the cost. Need to remind ourselves this is tourist trap with bumped up prices for quickly made (and not properly seasoned) food. Major disappointment and a waste of $30 for a sandwich, fries and a cup of chili

Catrin pinchos w chicken was just meat on a skewer with a bit of cheese sauce and no seasoning! Tlacoyo w chicken was Very dry- no flavor. I think they forgot the sauce! When I asked I was told the sauce was on it but it was dry as a bone..The corn mesa was over cooked and rock hard! The only plus were the cocktails, skinny margarita and the mojito. The salsa was pretty good! When I tried to complain I was told "sorry, I don't speak English "
