    capt greg had great crabs now someone else is cooking crabs and running the operation. the crabs…read morewere horrible. I bought 2 dozen #1 males. They were full of water. When you pulled off a claw, water ran out of the shell. The meat was watery and terrible. Don't waste your money. Heads up, you are supposed to steam crabs not boil them in water.These people do not know how to cook crabs.

    I have been a fan of Captain Greg's for quite some time. I have even referred quite a few people…read morethere over the years. They usually don't disappoint with the size of the crab, and the flavor of the crab used to be on point. They have been in Mechanicsville for years. The last couple of times I visited left me questioning my loyalty. I have been trying a couple of places in the area, and maybe I'm particular about crab and how it's prepared. When I buy anything, regardless of what it is, customer service can ruin the experience. I purchased crabs from here a couple of weeks ago and the lady at the register refused to put the crab seasoning on the crabs (I thought that was the idea). I hate a bland crab! I have tried Crab's, crab boils, sauteed crabs, steamed crabs etc... Yes size does matter, but not if they are bland. During the second visit, I was happy the owner was present ( he's nicer). He tried to accommodate me, however I requested female crabs (my preference) and when I arrived home I had male Crab's. Yes ! They were nice and meaty, but tasted like rubber. I was so disappointed, and upset, but at this point I was over it. It's a shame because I had been hankering some Crab's and 3 day's later, I still have the Crabs. I tried to doctor them up but, no bueno! I have purchased Crab's from places I didn't expect to like, and they were better than Captain Greg's! I don't think I will be returning, but I guess I'm particular.

    I want to start by saying that when I do a food review, I try to be as understanding and objective…read moreas possible. I am kind and generous in my critique and try to maintain a professional decorum. With that said, I ordered four pieces of Whiting, sweet potato fries, green beans, and three chicken thighs. All of it was garbage!!! I expected four normal-sized pieces of fish, but instead, I received cut-bite-sized fish. The grease that was used to fry this fish was not fresh. My chicken thighs looked and tasted like they had been cooked some days ago. I received approximately 11 fries, and the green beans came straight out of the can with no seasoning. I understand that we live in trying times, but this is ridiculous. Usually, I would give restaurants the benefit of the doubt, but I can honestly say this is a one-and-done for me.

    Well, this is quite the way from me but I made it and they did not disappoint. If you like Dave's…read morehot chicken or the croaker spot, this is for you. Let's talk about the food y'all. Not the best area but the food is INCREDIBLE. From the Nashville sliders to the shrimp Po boy and the fish. It was all so good. The service was fast even though they were super busy. It also looks like they get a lot of to go orders. I started off with the fish and shrimp platter. I'm not sure what that's called but the fish was fresh, fried to perfection. Shrimp was also really good, pairs well with tar tar sauce. The shrimp Po boy was my favorite. The sauce on it was SO GOOD, the bread was incredibly fresh. 20/10 for the Po boy. The manage habanero shrimp was super spicy but so good. The fried oysters was a unique menu item. Good as well. The sliders, we customized and got one hot honey and one Nashville hot. Both delicious. Also come with fries and I love a good fry. The wacky whiting sandwich was a fun and delicious item as well. Perfect for fish lovers that are looking for something more. The loaded Mac and cheese was so good as well. Lastly we had the funnel fries and it was a unique touch and was so good! The decor is cute but I don't love that it's attached to the gas station. Overall, the food was extremely good and definitely recommend if you are in the area.
