I had 1/2 lbs. of shrimp that came with potatoes, sausage, boiled eggs, and corn. The star of the show, however, was the sauce! At one point, I actually grabbed a spoon and just ate the sauce. Delicious food and the staff were super, super courteous and friendly!

We were at an impasse, but alas, Ooh Crab(s) to the rescue! The staff was helpful and guided us through the extensive menu options. We chowed down on crabs, shrimp, hush puppies, and fried rice! Yum Yum Yum!!! We will be back again, no doubt! Please remember, and don't forget, this secret spot is pronounced "Oh!" Crab, think "Oh, Oh, Oh, it's magic, you know." It is not pronounced "Ew!" Crab (like "Lou" Bega, most noted for his 1999 hit, Mambo No. 5).

Food is always great and hot! Great fish plates and their Chinese food is always terrific!read more

July 22 2026- This was my first visit to Wharf Casual Seafood, and I really wanted to like it…read more The positives are easy to point out. The restaurant was clean, well-appointed, and had a welcoming atmosphere. The service was excellent--friendly, attentive, and easily the highlight of the experience. Unfortunately, that's where the good news ended for me. While the portions were generous, I found the food to be pretty bland. Everything we ordered seemed to rely entirely on the flavor of whatever was being fried rather than any seasoning in the batter itself. The shrimp, catfish, and oysters were all cooked well enough, but they just lacked flavor. Even the fried okra, which is usually one of my favorites, was disappointing. If you're looking for large portions of simply prepared fried seafood, this may be your kind of place. For me, though, the food just didn't have the seasoning or flavor I was hoping for. I left wishing it had been better, and unfortunately, I don't see myself returning.

Hubby had the oysters and fried catfish. He said oysters were ok just needed more cheese and catfish was too soft and not fried hard enough. All in all decent restaurant.

The restaurant it self is unassuming and very casual. You will feel right at home here in shorts and flip flops. The food is the real gym. We had the grouper, and it tasted like it came off the boat that morning. Great flavor, tender and flaky, just like it should be. The season was on point, flavorful but not overpowering. I added the fried ahumó and glad I did. They were perfect. My wife added the crab cake, and that was excellent as well. Plenty of crab meat and not too much stuffing. If you are looking for fresh, authentic gulf seafood, this is the place to go. I can't wait for my mom to come to town from Nashville this will be a must eat for her.

The…read morerestaurant is located just off the highway in a gravel parking lot with lots of advertising signs lining the exterior of the building. Thanks for the GPS or we would have passed it. Inside is one open area with basic wooden tables and chairs. We were seated right away. Waitress said it was exceptionally slow evening. Service was excellent as she was attentive ensuring we were ok. Their menu had a nice variety for everyone more than what's posted on Yelp. Sorry, I didn't take an updated picture of it. Gulf Shrimp looked and tasted like regular shrimps from the grocery store. Nothing spectacular. Baked potato was good. Surprised they gave artificial whipped butter tho instead of real butter. Hush puppies were ok. One commented Mac n cheese wasn't that great but everything else was. Another commented the pasta was very flavorful but a bit watery and noodles overcooked. We didn't have any adult beverages so can't comment on it. Younger one had an ice cream sundae and said it was very good. Price was reasonable as well. We'll consider going back when in the area again. Recommend trying especially the catfish.
