Jinright's Seafood House - Yummy oyster supper - Seafood Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

Very nice service staff! Sunday close time vary. Although, it says 3pm online. They still were able to accommodate us. Food was okay. Edible, but the environment is one of locals and people passing through. Mostly seafood on the menu. Fried and broiled options. Lacking a little flavor for my liking but everything was fresh. Nice size portions for the money and they offer specials too. read more

A long time member of the Brunswick community that serves lunch and dinner. The decor is nautical, but they had Halloween decorations up today. Our waitress, Madison was quick, helpful and very nice. We enjoyed her. I got a grilled basa fish sandwich with lettuce and tomato . You have a choice of fried, grilled or blackened. You choose your side from onion rings, fries or sweet potato fries. I got the onion rings and they were great. My friend got a grilled shrimp po boy sandwich and said it was good. There was plenty of good sweet tea and we didn't have to ask for a refill. They have fish, shrimp, soups and salads. They are closed on Monday. read more

Yum yum. Great local spot. And good food. Stop here while in area and thought was worth a try since noticed lots of trucks in parking lot ( usually a sign it is a good place). Had a local vibe to it. Had good service. We will definitely be back when we come back to the area. This restaurant reminded me of the Captains Table in Panama City, FL ( another great seafood spot). read more

Perfect hometown feel. Very laid back atmosphere. The service here is also amazing, they make everyone feel at home. The food here is also very good. read more

Jinright's Seafood House - Flounder and shrimp. - Seafood Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

This is an old, established, family-owned restaurant in Brunswick. The food is delicious and prepared properly. Much preferred over many of the newer places. Treat yourself and visit there next time you're in Brunswick. read more

We were in town for our teenage daughters soccer tournament and we made the horrible decision to choose this place to eat. We waited 40 minutes for over cooked fish that had zero seasoning. They grease they fry the fish in is clearly burned. Save your money!!! read more

Old grease. Gave me the runs. Asked for lemon to go with the shrimp and got the juice from the green plastic bottle; how cheap! Green beans straight from the can or bag with no seasoning; a travesty for South Georgia. Weird "key lime pie " not made with eggs and lime juice. The whole place is tired, outdated, unkept , needs painting and cleaning and has seen a better day. I won't go back read more

Great seafood in an old fashioned Fish Camp style restaurant. Great service at a fair price. I can't wait to be in Brunswick again so I can stop by. read more

Really good seafood...the best in this area in our opinion! Our first visit was last year for My birthday and then again for my sister's birthday. Highly recommended! read more

Fried seafood, with a hint of old oil. Staff are nice. Reminiscent of fish houses of my South Carolina youth. Ambience is straight out of 1980. Would not go again. read more

We have dined here several times before and enjoyed the food. The decor, and I use the word loosely, is in need of major upgrade. Windows not clean, chairs with ripped padding, floor appears not to have been cleaned for some time. Well wife wanted to have their scallops, which she had previously. This visit, not on the menu. Waitress explained that they no longer offer them because they were too expensive to get. That my be the case, but it just gives you the impression that along with appearance, oh and BTW, only 2 servers for the whole restaurant, they refuse to invest in their business. A word about the service. She did a great job even though she was stretched out. So to summarize. Food ok, service good, decor terrible, menu so so. Will not be dining there in the future. read more

Was here with my husband on a little getaway so we decided to try this place. They had a broad menu. My flounder was great and so were the gator bites. My husbands steak was horrendous. The taste itself was not good and it was mostly fat. If you try this place stay away from the beef! read more

After reading the reviews I don't feel bad about missing out on the terrible food I got turned away at 8 on Friday night say there were closed if it so some one needs to change the hrs of operation getting folks Hope's up. And second the waitress could've smiled when she ran us off she was down right hateful. read more

Delicious food, fresh seafood. Good service. Seafood is really good. I love the shrimp. Cheese grits was good & cheesy. I love coming here when I am in town. I wish they had a signature tartar sauce though. read more

Jinrights was a family favorite decades ago when we lived in the area. Wanted to try it again but was concerned by some bad reviews. Our meals were great. Could not ask for a better combination of food quality, service and price. We were there at lunch. I got the blackened flounder plate with sweet potato and green beans. The fish was cooked perfectly. I got a good sized filet. The sweet potato was also nice size and good. The beans were slightly salty. My wife got fried shrimp. Had a dozen medium size shrimp, and very good. Her baked potato was also good. The slaw was a little too mayonnaisy. Overalls a very good meal, and each was under $10. How can you beat that? read more

Always enjoyed going there with family and friends. They make sure you get plenty to eat.

Food was wonderful, I truly cannot say enough good things about it. We had the shrimp basket, and Basa fish basket. Best fish I've ever had. It was so tender, and flavorful. I like that they keep the cocktail sauce and tartar sauce on the table. Don't get me started about the ranch, I could rant all day about how wonderful it is. Very cozy atmosphere, food made me feel right at home. Our server Elaine, was so very attentive and kind. Also the other lady there, Toni I think was her name. She was so kind and we had some small talk before we left. I will be back here and I recommend this to anyone looking for hot, fresh, seafood. Not to mention it came out very quickly, which was nice. Thank you all for what you do, you're appreciated. Also big thanks to the cook who prepared our food. Huge portions too!! Great southern cooking . read more

I guess I am a glutton for punishment. I went back to see if anything changed. It had, it had gotten worse. Jinright's sits geographically 4 miles from a dozen shrimp boats that catch the best shrimp in the world but Jinright's uses frozen imported small shrimp that has been split and curl up. The fish is also frozen. The oysters range from large to almost non existent is a ball of breading. All this is just plain nasty and a rip off because with tip I spent $40 in there and froze my ass. The food cooled down quickly because the plate was cold along with the restaurant was cold. Anyone here bragging on this place does not know what they are talking about. read more

My friend Recommended this place to me. The scallops had an ammonia taste. Just wasn't good Tom personally in general. The shrimp was average. The atmosphere is cute and homie! The service was good. The French fries were good! I had steamed and fried shrimp also they were ok! read more

Service was excellent, food ok, prices ok, atmosphere lacking, I wish these local places would put water filters on their ice machine.

We tried This Jinrights for the first time last night. E will definitely come back. We were seated right away, Melissa our waitress was very attentive never had to hunt for her. The food was great, plentiful and worth the money. Thanks for a great meal. read more

Jinright's Seafood House - Delicious sea scallops and shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Brunswick, Georgia

Yummy food! Convenient location, friendly service! Will be coming back. Great for families!!

We always enjoy the old beach charm of Jinright's. Great service with a smile! Good food! Yummy onion rings.

This was our first time here. When you walk in you realize you don't come here if you want atmosphere. Nice quaint restaurant. We were seated promptly by Harley. Then our server came over and introduced herself to us, her name is Maddie. We ordered drinks and then split an appetizer. Then for the entree they had a fish on the menu and it was called Basa. I questioned Maddie about it and she highly recommended it. So I took a gamble and got it because I love to try different fish. I got the dish and I couldn't believe how much fish I got. It was delicious. Cooked just right. Everything was great and Maddie did a great job. We will be back. read more

This is a quaint little place to eat. The food is good. You get a lot of food for the money. The decor is less pleasing to the eye but the semis great. I have dined here several times and would recommend it if you are on a budget. read more

Against my better judgment, I placed an order from this spot. To be clear, my Mother suggested them and her appetite had been so poor lately - that I was excited to try to bring her anything she thought she might enjoy. I ordered fried flounder for her and broiled flounder for myself. I was TRYING to be healthy, so I opted for green beans and baked potato as my side. When I arrived, everything looked okay - so I drove back to Darien. Once I got home and attempted to eat my food - I discovered my fish was undercooked and my baked potato was too. :( I called the restaurant and they apologized and explained that they were about to close and asked me to come back tomorrow. I explained that I was all the way in Darien so tomorrow was fine. The next day day - technically night - I called to let them know I was coming to pick up my replacement order and they told me they were closing early 'because it was slow.' I didn't realize they did this - and was pretty irritated. The person I spoke to told me come tomorrow instead. The next day, I drove over and arrived at 8:30pm only to discover the doors were locked. There was a woman counting money at the register and I held my to go container up - to get her attention and let her know that I wasn't a 'new' customer. She gestured for me to hold on and a few seconds, a waitress came to the door. The waitress, Morgan, explained that they had closed early. Morgan stood outside the car and listened to me while I sat in the driver's seat - being embarrassingly emotional about personal worries. She shared some of her stories. When I expressed my frustration and explained that this was the second time this had happened - she was extremely apologetic and asked IF the fryers were still on - would I be okay with fried flounder and french fries as a replacement. She said she would hate for me to just leave without any sort of meal, and couldn't promise anything - but she would check. I said ok. A few minutes later, she returned and explained to me, sadly, that the fryers had already been shut off. She had me write my name and number on the back of my receipt and asked if she could "keep my food so that she could show it to the cook." I said ok - because I had no reason to believe that this replacement meal would become a problem. A few days later, after not hearing from anyone - I called the restaurant - and I was IN THE PARKING LOT - AROUND 2pm this time - wasn't taking any chances - and explained what had happened. I talked to an employee named Marissa. She explained that the person that could authorize a replacement meal or refund was a person named Jennifer Lord and she'd gone for the day. I tried back another day - once again - was told Ms. Lord was gone for the day - when asked - the staff member said Ms. Lord typically leaves by 2pm. I admit - I did not pursue this diligently - because my Mother was hospitalized, but I see Jinright's each time I leave the hospital (from the Hwy 17 intersection) - so one day - when things were looking up, I decided to call again and lo and behold - I finally get Ms. Lord. First - when I say I'm happy to finally be able to reach her - she interrupts and snaps, loudly and defensively, that she 'heard about me' and that she'd attempted to call me multiple times. Then she says that I should have checked my food before I left. I explain to her my order was accurate - just undercooked. Then she says I didn't call or come back within 24 hours. I explain that I did (see above). Then she says she heard I came up there and caused a scene. I explain that I never even entered the restaurant that night (see above). Then she says that she was told that I wanted to return my food because I didn't like it and I asked for something else. I explained that I didn't - but I was offered fried flounder and was willing to accept it (see above). She then tells me that she needs to speak to Morgan and Marissa again to verify "my story" - because she was told a completely different version of events. She tells me she will call me back within the next few days. It's been over two months and, of course, I never heard back. It's honestly not even about the money - it's the principal. If you want subpar food and abysmal customer service, go here - otherwise - avoid it like the plague. read more

Food is a hit or miss base off the items you get. Sides are good, main courses are really salty. Service isn't bad, they are nice. The environment is very clean and enjoyable. Reasonable wait time. read more

We like Jinrights. They have good beer on tapp and great fried shrimp. There is not a lot of ambiance really but the food is good southern fried and grilled seafood. The prices are very reasonable. I like their crab stuffed flounder too. I think the disatisfied reviewer should have put her undercooked fIsh in the microwave for 30 secs read more

Went her for lunch with friends. They said it was good and it was not a lie. The service was excellent, our server was excellent. The food was wonderful, and plenty of it. The atmosphere was amazing for our time catching up, no rush to leave. When in Brunswick you must stop by and check this wonderful restaurant out. read more

The two brothers, Dustin and Justin, ALWAYS prepare my Basa filets to perfection. I never tire of going back to Jinright's!

Jinright's offers a solid seafood experience and has for the 22 years I've been making the trip to the island and always stopping at Jinright's for a meal! The environment is casual and welcoming. The servers always have that local southern hospitality. I don't think I've ever made the trip without stopping here to eat at least once. read more

I've been wanting to go here for some time. Thought I would try it yesterday. Very dirty under the tables. Seating was very disorganized. Waitress was very friendly. A lot of food, but I didn't like the heavy cornmeal mix on the fried seafood platter. Clam chowder was good but not great. On the thin side not very thick. I don't think I'll go back. read more

Warning: Slow Service. My only con dining here. Our first night staying in the Brunswick/Jekyll Island area and wanted to try local seafood. I was drawn to the sign and building and not to mention it was hopping! Was seated right away. However, the server took 10 minutes to get our drink order. They were out of the Yuengling on draft, so I ended up getting Coors light bottle, which was no big deal to me. It took another 10 minutes to get our drinks. The server was very apologetic and thanked us for being patient. There were 2 waitresses running the whole restaurant. I do not blame them because perhaps they were short handed. I was hoping the wait would be worth it. I ordered the Grilled Salmon for $14.00 which was grilled and you choose two items. I got the baked potato and salad ($2.50 extra). I ordered the salmon medium well. My mom ordered a sampler platter (forgot the name) for $20.00+ which includes two sides (she got fries and salad). Her platter was fried flounder, scallops, clams, oyster, stuffed crab cake, hush puppies, and shrimp. When we got our meal... OMG!!!! SOOO awesome!! My salmon was cooked the way I wanted (hot/medium well) and not heavily seasoned. Salad was not cheap iceberg, they served fresh romaine leaf lettuce. My mom's platter was freakin huge!! She needed a to go box to take the rest. I swear it could've fed two people. All was delicious. Definitely not boxed freezer seafood. Again the server was very apologetic. The refills on water did not come quick and had to wait. I saw the server and she was working her tail off. She was working really hard. I would give this place a 5 star rating, but the service was off. Restaurant and restroom clean. Great fresh seafood! I would come back. read more

This is the absolute worst restaurant I have ever had the displeasure of visiting. The waitress was rude and obnoxious and snobby. The food was sub-par and the price was way too expensive for what was served. Fried corn nuggets were $8.00 for 6, and they were the size of a quarter. The fish was fried too long and was tasteless, except for the char. The sweet tea was decent but we had to ask for refills multiple times. When ask why the prices were so high the staff responded," we raise the prices every 6 months regardless of our suppliers prices." I will never eat there again and I encourage everyone else to avoid this restaurant also. Even 1 - star is too much... read more

Stopped here spur of the moment on mini vacation. The waitress took her time coming over. However the food was more than enough in portions and was hot. I will be sure to come back if I'm in the area again. read more

I always come here when I'm in the area, been coming here since 2012. Always have great prices, friendly staff, and GOOD food! I've seen this place change so much, but the food and staff have always been the same! A trip to St Simons or Jekyll just isn't complete without a dinner here! I just wish they would fix the stall door in the men's room, always gets stuck, that's my ONLY criticism of this place. read more

Hi, we went for the trio combo. It was great. We saw the family seafood platter - so much seafood for the money. We had oysters, scallops and blue crabs. Everything was taste and was plentiful. Saw a family of 4 eating family seafood platter and the taking a lot home. Definitely we would be back. read more

Not bad. The shrimp and baked sweet potato were both good, as was the cheese grits. The tilapia was ok but not quite as delicious as I hoped. 2 for 1 well drinks made up for it though. Overall, this place is about what you would expect: average priced restaurant with a mostly fried-foods menu that is worth an occasional visit but likely never becomes the "go to" spot. read more
