    This is a perfect take-out spot if you are hungry for some good food. Everything I ordered was great which included whiting, Mac & cheese, collards, yams and the carrot cake. The owner was more than friendly chatting with us as our food was being prepared. Prices were good. This is def now in my take- out rotation.

    Love the food and service here! The fried catfish was perfectly fried with nice spice to the batter. Definitely recommend the fried shrimp, well seasoned with a nice kick. The fam really enjoyed the fresh cut fries and carrot cake too!First timers get a sample of their various sides. Love supporting a local business!

    About 30 seconds after walking in the door, O.D. asks "are you first timers?" First timers get a sampling of most of his sides, including potato salad, candied yams, baked mac and cheese, and greens with cabbage. So if you're a first timer, say yes! A wide selection of fish is available, and we got catfish, butterfish, crabcake, and lake trout. Everything is fried in a perfectly seasoned cornmeal type of breading - not too much, not too little - which just highlights the fish instead of covering it up. Handcut fries are on the menu too, along with a bunch of homemade (though not by O.D.) desserts. We got banana pudding and red velvet cake, both were very good. O.D. also sells lemonade called Reign & Taij's Homemade lemonade, made and packaged by a couple of local kids, and it's really good too. All of the customers were super nice as well, and I feel like that is reflective of how welcoming and kind the owner is. I can't recommend this place enough. He's closed Mondays to restock the restaurant, and if you go on Saturday or Sunday he requests cash only.

    Nah for real though. This spot is single-handedly worth a trip to Harrisburg. It smells right from the outside as soon as you pull up. Then you walk in and get greeted like family. I was just going to get a fish plate to go, ended up sitting around for an hour eating shooting the breeze. They're friendly, good people and CLEARLY take pride in what they do. They gave me some shrimp and some sides to try...they don't miss . I had my heart set on fish though, so I ended up going with the $14 catfish. Now you can choose from I believe a $12-$20 piece depending on how hungry you are/who all you with. Let me start by saying the fish is perfect, the batter is crispy but light, its seasoned right, tender and a great value for the size you get...and critically, you can tell that oil is RIGHT. The greens will have you sopping up that potlikker with your bread. Mac and cheese, rich, cheesy, with that crispy cheese on top...bussin. Now that seafood Salad, you NEED that in your life, she (sorry didn't catch her name) put her foot in that: big pieces of shrimp, real crab, and that seasoning. Finished the drill with some banana pudding and my eyes were already heavy. I should have got a piece of pie and a slice of that cheesecake, red velvet or lemon cake to go, but next time I'll get right. If you're in the area, it gives you every reason to go, if not it's worth a detour. OD's is THAT spot.

    We were on vacation and had planned a dinner out with friends to celebrate our daughter's birthday…read more We initially stopped by a hibachi steakhouse, but after being seated, we waited 15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. When the waitress finally arrived, she mentioned she was the only one working and implied that the slow service would continue throughout the evening. Thankfully, my husband quickly looked up another local spot, and that's when we found Captain Krab Cajun Seafood & Boil--what a blessing! Not only did we enjoy incredible food and exceptional service, but both the server and the owner went above and beyond to make our daughter's birthday truly special. We were treated to fresh, delicious seafood, a sparkler candle dessert, a plush gift for the birthday girl, and even a light-up birthday sign! We felt like part of their family. We ordered oysters, clam chowder, boiled eggs, baby clams, and snow crab legs--everything was perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. You can even customize your meal by choosing from four different seasonings and five levels of spiciness, which makes it ideal for families or groups with mixed tastes. One of the most fun parts? You can write on the walls, tables, and even the ceiling! They also have a claw machine for the kids (and kids at heart). We'll absolutely be back next time we're in town! P.S. It's BYOB!

    My reviews are different. I do not announce myself or tell anyone; I am here to do a review!! I was…read moreout mid-afternoon on another beautiful ride here in Central Pennsylvania. The day before, I stopped at the same place to get some delicious fish, but that night I wasn't able to "swim with the fishes," so I came back the second day--and that was the best "swimming in the ocean" I ever did. I indulged in some delicious, cheesy, savory grits along with some delicious shrimp, fried to perfection with a golden, crispy brown outer layer drizzled with seasoning (but not too much). I also had some delicious flounder; now, this fish wasn't any less than the shrimp. The fish was one of the best pieces of fish I've ever had. I know a lot of fish--all the fish in the sea know me, and I know the fish. I must say the establishment is pretty inviting; however, myself being a cleaner, I know that it can definitely use a good cleaning. I did use the bathroom, and well, that was before I had my food and not after, which means it's good, and also the kitchen is clean. I enjoy this place because you do not have to deal with a waiter when it comes to ordering your food. All you have to do is just order at a kiosk, which makes it more convenient. They also sell smoothies, which are very nice as well. I do recommend this place for "to-go" food. To dine in would be okay, but would not be ideal only because it does need a good touch-up; however, the food is always consistent. If you have any questions, there are staff on site. I hope my review helps you make your decision on choosing to visit this location. My Ratings: * Food: 5/5 * Establishment: 2.5/5 * Convenience: 5/5

    Food was horrible! The fish is frozen, not fresh, fries were taste less and soggy…read more I ordered the three piece whiting with a of fries. Food was hot, but the fish had a peculiar smell to it and it tasted just like it smelled, oily and on the verge of going bad. The "seasoned" fries were a long way from seaso Ed, no salt no pepper. They tasted old not fresh cut, just old reheated frozen fries. I had placed a pick order through GH, when I arrived to pick up my order, the guy at the counter could not find d my order statin " we have no orders under that name" I asked him to look again he went to the back and "found!" my order. I should have left it right there. It really was bad dry taste less frozen fish, old soggy unseasoned refried frozen fries. Seventeen dollars went I to the trash and I am still hungry! Ambiance? There is none. A few tables and chairs, no pictures on the walls, and a very small kitchen I think it was a kitchen, I did not see a stove or any other appliances. Hookers is off my list!!

He placed me on hold and verified crabs was on site and order will be fulfilled. I was advised that for Crabs only cash is accepted. Cool. I arrived by 5:57pm. I was told to hold on a few minutes because my food wasn't ready. Cool. After waiting 5minutes the guy working there then calls me back inside to say "AINT NO MORE". I said excuse me....no more crabs? "Yea no more crabs" He couldn't care less which was even more pathetic because that's not how you treat a paying 1st time customer! He then says well I have snows for you. I ORDERED BLUES AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN HAVE THE DECENCY TO CALL ME BACK TO SAY IM SORRY WE RAN OUT! He then goes to tell me "I called her and she told me we had 6 but it was sitting there for someone else's order" I am absolutely flabbergasted. It's a shame because I am loyal to my people especially if it tastes good. To have me drive then give me some BS about not having them then ready to hand off someone else's order.....NEVER AGAIN!

The Millworks support local talent from growers to local artist. The restaurant provide fresh seasonal items. A menu that has something for everyone that includes homemade pizzas, sandwiches and full meals. With a solid drink menu that includes cocktails with shrubs, their beer, wine and more. I sat down at the bar and was warmly greeted by fellow patrons and the bar staff during a busy Thursday night! Pro tip: make reservations if you want a table. The bar overlooks the courtyard that offers limited seating. The main dining area offers a very size able seating area. Note when the sun goes down you can be blinded at the bar. The menu looked all soooo good . As it was so good that I was having trouble deciding on some food but I paired down to a couple items and with help of the patrons and bartender we decided on a pizza with mushrooms. The pizza was very large and filled with mushrooms. A great pizza for mushroom lovers. I complimented my pizza with an adult beverage. I had a champagne with a local shrub. It was the perfect balance. During mg time at the bar, I learned this is one of three restaurants in town. The owner has a "dive bar" that looks to be a tiki bar and a date night place. Great to see these places pop in Harrisburg as the downtown area needs a facelift. Come and enjoy! Also check out their happy hour..:

    I've passed Watershed Pub a million times and never stopped, so when I met a friend for lunch, it…read morefinally felt like the right time to check it out. Naturally, I had already done my due diligence (read: stalked the menu for a full week) and had a game plan. At the top of my list? The deviled eggs and the Kale Caesar salad with salmon. The only problem...I absolutely did not need $40 worth of food for lunch. So I quietly spent the week putting "deviled egg energy" out into the Universe, hoping my lunch partner would suggest splitting them. Manifestation is real, people. I arrived around 12pm and found plenty of parking out back in Watershed's designated lot, which is clearly labeled--a good thing, because parking in that area looks like it could get competitive if you're not paying attention. We had made a 12:15pm reservation (Monday lunch felt safe, but why risk it?), and our table on the enclosed patio was ready when we arrived. It was the perfect setup--sunny and bright, but still warm enough to be comfortable on a chilly day. The vibe was great, and our server was even better--friendly, attentive, and consistently checking in without being overbearing. Then it was time to order. I let my lunch partner go first and waited... "Do you want to try the deviled eggs as an appetizer?" Are you kidding me?!. YES. Yes, I did! We ordered the deviled eggs ($11) to share, and I followed through with my Kale Caesar salad ($15) topped with seared salmon (+$13), officially completing my week-long menu-stalking mission. The deviled eggs came out FAST, and in my excitement, I completely forgot to take a picture--which tells you everything you need to know. Each egg was topped with a cube of candied bacon that absolutely stole the show. Sweet, savory, and just the right texture to complement the creamy filling. We made quick work of all four--excellent start to the meal! Not long after, our lunches arrived, and my salad? Gorgeous. Like, actually exciting to look at. I dug in immediately and it delivered. The mix of shaved brussels sprouts, kale, and romaine gave it great texture, the dressing was well-balanced, and the red onion didn't overpower the rest of the flavors. But my favorite part? The garlic parmesan crouton crumble. No chasing rogue croutons around the plate--just perfectly distributed crunch in every bite. Genius! The portion size was generous, too--I made it through about half before calling it and boxing the rest for dinner later. By the time we were wrapping up, the enclosed patio had filled up significantly, which tells me this is a popular lunch spot--and for good reason. The food is solid, the atmosphere is great, and the service was spot on. That said...$40 for deviled eggs, a salad and water is a bit steep for an everyday lunch. For me, this feels more like a "treat yourself," client meeting, or special occasion kind of place rather than a regular rotation spot. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I be casually popping in every week? Probably not. But those deviled eggs? Totally worth manifesting!

    Atmosphere and seating around the exterior is on point. Really nailed the interior and fixing. They…read moredid a great job with heaters outside and retracting canopy blinds to make the outdoor space work in large swaths of the year. The main challenge: the food on two orders was a real miss. The review for the Greek salad was that it was one of the worst tasting Greek salads my brother has ever had, despite the attempt at some flare with phyllo on top. My second salad was equally uninspired. We didn't bother with anything else admittedly so perhaps their salad game is just very very weak, or a bad day in the kitchen. Hard to say; but wouldn't be bothering with their food again compared to hunting around.
