    Buffet

    Lived by this place, always busy. I decided to try it yesterday. The have a menu but mostly a buffet. I saw patrons eating crab legs and the waitress said they were on buffet. So, I got the buffet. 3 steam tables with a limited amount of actual seafood. Mostly fried chicken, sides, and desserts. NO CRAB LEGS! Asked another server who told me they cost extra. Ok, tried some fried and sauted seafood, everything was bland. Long story short, I got sick as a dog last night, woke me up around 3am and upchucked everything. So, 0 stars for $25 worth of bad food. And I never leave reviews.

    I heard about this restaurant from someone who raved about it. I stopped in today and I was greeted when I walked in, I was given a menu to order my takeout meal. I decided to have the seafood platter which had flounder, shrimp, scallop, oyster, crab. Catfish, hush puppies, fries and deviled crab. I have never heard of devil crab before. Just saying. This was a lot of food and I must tell you it looked and smells so good. They had forgotten to put the devil crab on and so the waitress followed me out of the door as I was getting into my car and she waved me down to get give it to me. The food was delicious. However, I could have done without the devil crab that was not my taste. They also have a buffet. That's what I will be having the next time I go in (and I will be going back.) it is definitely worth it.

    Cozy clean and well worth the visit. This is become our food date place. Highly recommend

    All you can eat crab leaves for $35!

    We returned for our annual Myrtle Beach vacation and had to come to Sea Man's again! Arrived on Wed night right at 5:00 and got a seat. 15 min later there was a line forming. The all you can eat crab legs were delicious- served hot! Had to order a side of hush puppies and my husband said they looked like they were on steroids - huge and so tasty! Cookie was our server and couldn't have been more pleasant. We will be back next year when we come to Myrtle Beach!

    I am now a regular at Sea Man's seafood.... Polite service, delicious food. Order pickup which is great & they also have a buffet. I order from the menu and it's usually ready when I arrive!

    Sea Man's is one of those hidden secrets that is tucked away on the side of the road just waiting to be found; and once you are inside, a buffet of seafood and comfort food awaits. They offer a buffet for $14.99 that includes a salad/dessert bar and 2 hot bars. They also offer all you can eat crab legs with the buffet for $47.99. We opted to go with the all you can eat crab legs and we were not disappointed. We tried a little bit of different dishes from the hot bar and there were no disappointments. If you aren't in the mood for a buffet, they do have a menu with different seafood options, burgers and kids meals. We were there mid-week and in the evening and service was a little lackluster. it was not busy at all and our server never came by our table even though he was out on the floor. For the all you can eat buffet option with the crabs, it is priced inline with some of the bigger buffets in the area but felt that for the size of the buffet they have, it was a little overpriced. We will definitely go back there and either do the regular buffet or order from the menu.

    Cape Fear Seafood Company is located in a strip shopping center…read more Food was very good, and service was excellent. The restaurant decor was what you'd typically see at a seafood restaurant. I had fried jumbo shrimp which were not listed on the menu as a platter, but our waitress (Grace) was glad make the exception. My husband ordered the fresh catch salmon with mango salsa. Sides were: green beans with roasted tomatoes, sautéed spinach and risotto cakes. Everything was very good and Grace kept our tea glasses full. When I'm in the area I'll definitely stop in some of their delicious food!

    We came to this restaurant for dinner after our fishing trip. This place was recommended by the man…read morewho took us on our fishing tour. It seemed very "busy" for an early Monday evening around 5:20/6pm. It had quite a few customers but also many empty tables inside. We wanted to sit inside but were told they were holding tables for reservations. So our only option was to sit outside or to wait over 20 minutes. We were very hungry so we sat outside. Our waitress came out and greeted us and was very nice and answered all our questions. We had a table on the far right of the patio. Outside was hot and there were little small gnats flying around. We ordered the mussels in a wine sauce for appetizers. And OMG when the food came out the gnats swarmed in on us and it was worse! We could not enjoy the food because we were in a constant battle. We complained to the waitress. And we wound up moving to another table closer to the door (still outside in the opposite side because we still were told there were no tables inside). It was a better but gnats were still there. The food, however, was really good and would have been even better without fighting bugs. The mussels were cooked perfectly and the sauce it was in was delicious! We were almost licking the plate, but so I wouldn't look like a heathen, used the bread to wipe up the plate instead. The roasted red pepper crab bisque was also very good and I like that it had bigger lumps of crab in it. For my main course I had the fresh catch of the day that came with a lemon sauce, mango salsa and risotto. I am not a fan of asparagus so I was allowed to substitute for spinach. The dish was so delicious! I was happy with the taste and quality of the food. A manager just so happened to round on us while we were eating and we told her our complaints about the gnats. She was very understanding and offered us a free dessert or to take some money off the bill. When the waitress came back she asked us what dessert we wanted complimentary. We wondered why the manager gave us both options, but we didn't actually get to choose what we really wanted which was the money off the bill. We were really full and didn't have room for the dessert. Rather than protesting, we just chose a dessert to go, but unfortunately forgot to eat it because we had to pack for our early morning flight. My review would have been 5 stars for the service and food if it wasn't for those pesky bugs outside. I don't know why there was so many out there.

Fred ordered fried oysters platter, I ordered an à la carte crab cake and oysters Rockefeller. Our food arrived quickly. Fried oysters were plentiful and crispy. House made chips were crunchy and delicious. My crab cake was wonderful - as close to a Maryland crab cake as I've had in a long time. Lump crab, very little bread crumbs, pan fried and served with a dollop of hollandaise. It needed some Old Bay seasoning. The Rockefeller Oysters were delicious. Plump oysters topped with spinach and Hollandaise. They need a splash of Pernod and would be 5 star. We split a piece of house made peanut butter pie for dessert. It wasn't good. Way too sweet and very soupy. Tasted like a cool whip recipe. Our tab was reasonable and we left our server a generous tip. We recommended the restaurant to numerous people we knew back at the hotel. I'd definitely return!
