Wondered into this place driving by the area. This place definitely feels like something out of an 80s movie. Has a a homey and familiar feel to it. Everyone who I encountered here was nice. I didn't know what to get, so the lady at the front suggested one of the sampler plates with fish, soft shell crab and oysters. This plate did not mess around. It was so big I took half home. The food was fresh and flavorful. You can actually see the food being prepared when you place your order at the front. No microwave food here, just good ole fresh seafood plates. read more

The Fish Fry - Old skool but good. - Seafood Near Me - Lillington, North Carolina

The food was small in portion and cold not hot. I ordered the trout plate. I received three pieces of fish(small in size) potato salad which still had the skin on it which is a no go for me. Didn't taste bad though until i noticed it. The coleslaw was basic i mean i didn't think coleslaw needed seasoning but honey it does! Nice old joint but they truly need an upgrade and i mean that all around. The service was great though very attentive and got my order right the first time. read more

The food was great. We ordered via phone and it was Ready and hot when we arrived. Many side dishes to choose from such as okra, fried green beans and jalapeño poppers . Prices were comparable with other restaurants. read more

So we just went to the fish fry and we ordered the barbecue plate. As my son was chewing, there was something not very barbecue in it- the meat was ground meat- shocking my daughter ordered the shrimp and it still had feces in it. The tea was good. And the servers were very kind and attentive. It was disappointing that the food practices were not good. read more

Perfect place to visit if you like your food to taste like nothing! Good thing they had a lot of ketchup..One plus is the hush puppies taste like a funnel cake. read more

For starters the hospitality and service was excellent. The food was delicious and the portions are rather large. If your looking for an authentic south taste I would recommend read more

Good stuff. Cooked nicely. Large portions. Ii was very happy. -----------------------!cordial staff.

The flounder was so good and was cooked to perfection! I have tried all the local places around that serve fish and this was the first place to cook it perfectly! I hate when fish is overcooked! My husband had popcorn shrimp and loved it! Hush puppy's were sweet just the way I love them. French fries were steak fries which was cooked perfect and the Cole slaw was excellent. This will be were we go from now on!!!! Service was great. Always refilling your drink and always asking if you need anything. read more

Always fresh and delicious I got shrimp flounder oysters and scallops slaw is always good too

Loved it! Fried catfish with hush puppies and fries. Staff was very friendly, too, making this a great dinner for "visitors from the north".

So I pass this lil Seafood joint on the way home every weekday and I have never stopped in to check it out. Now the place is not eye candy but the owner of this place can most definitely cook some fish. I order the large croaker plate and I can assure you that is exactly what it was. Two decent size croakers cooked whole. I am not a fan of eating bony fish but this was mot definitely a pleasant surprise. He threw in a filet of whiting's for me to try as well which was absolutely delicious. The staff was very pleasant to deal with and answered questions that I presented in an effort to satisfy my taste palate. Now the one negative had to be the coleslaw, it needed a lil something more and the fries could've been a lil more crispier with a lil seasoning. Over all, I can most definitely say that I will be returning to this establishment. read more

The Fish Fry - a container of fried fish and fries - Seafood Near Me - Lillington, North Carolina

Small town restaurant that's worth the stop. A friend recommended it after I found on Yelp and decided to give it a try. You won't be disappointed. I know I wasn't, read more

I would give it 0 stars if possible. I ve ate here before and food was good. Today I went back and the food was nasty. Cole slaw had no dressing on it and when complained about it we were told that the lady who made it was new and that they were out of dressing! You could not have said that when we ordered so we could have gotten different side?..Also ,everything else was so greasy that I didn't even want to eat it,except for the fish fillet, that was actually good but the rest,nasty and no waitress ever came back to refill drinks or check on us read more

Love this place. Great price and portion sizes. Food is fantastic! Always friendly service. The girls who work here are efficient and know their stuff. It's easy to miss when you're driving by. And it's definitely not fancy inside, but always worth a visit. read more

The Fish Fry - Scallop plate on the first day of summer! - Seafood Near Me - Lillington, North Carolina

If you want the best seafood you will ever put in your mouth you really need to eat here. When you go in don't think you are going somewhere fancy because it's not but it is very good and the staff are very friendly. All of your food is made to order so you're not getting seafood that has been setting over grease to keep it warm. read more

Food tasted fantastic and there was plenty to eat. Only complaint is it was hot inside and too many flies. Need a AC fix and a fly trap maybe. read more

I ate at his exceptional little restaurant yesterday. The fried fish was great! I found the breading on both the flounder and the hush puppies was light and slightly sweet. I would recommend the fried green beans as a side, as well as the fried squash. The service was quick, kind, and helpful. A great find! read more

Hush puppies are fabulous. The fish is delicious and I love the shrimp. They have okra, potato salad and slaw. Can't go wrong

Hardly any info on yelp, but this place is a hidden gem! The portions were huge and tasty. You can get a two-part entrée with two sides for around $12; we tried catfish and deviled crab (served in crab shells) with a choice of two sides. We chose potato salad and okra. That would have been enough food for two people. But I also got separate orders of jalapeño poppers and okra, both were a little underseasoned but the quantities were jaw-dropping! Definitely a good find. read more

The Fish Fry - Shrimp, sweet potato fries and fried green beans. - Seafood Near Me - Lillington, North Carolina

Not only is the seafood good my husband says the BBQ plate was to die for and we had more than enough in our delivery order for him to pack some for work the next day. One of our favorite places to order from! read more

The reason I'm giving this two stars is because the young man behind the counter was very friendly and accommodating. But the reality is that I paid $20 for a pile of seafood that was cooked in oil that wasn't nearly hot enough, so it's oily and soggy. it seems like a fairly busy place though, so maybe it was an off night. But I won't go again read more

Fried oyster, sweet potatoes fries, hush puppies and fried squash. Everything was cooked to the perfect temperature. Favor was awesome. I will be back!! read more

Now that was some succulent Shrimp and Scallops. Husband had Shrimp and oysters and said they were way above average. Employees were friendly and super cool. Will definitely eat there again. YUM!!! read more

Went there today based on Yelp reviews. The tables were dirty and sticky and the floors were slippery. The girl behind the counter was not familiar with the menu so we took a chance and ordered small whiting plates which came with 2 sides and 4 hush puppies. While the flavor of the fish was ok and the helpings were large I was completely disgusted by the brown coagulated tartar sauce in a dirty bottle. Fried fish isn't as good without some tartar sauce. Based on the condition of the tartar sauce we stayed away from the ketchup and cocktail sauce. The fries and onion rings were undercooked, and the squash was bland. Our meals were topped off by flat soda. We may get food from there again but will order takeout and make our own sauce at home. read more

Best place to get fried seafood. Great prices and friendly service.

Very good prices very simple place if you love fried seafood you definitely have to visit here

This place offers quantity over quality seafood. If that's your thing then you'll get it here. There are far better options like Howard's for those with taste buds. read more

Giant portions for reasonable prices. Typical fried food though. I would doubt anything comes in there that isn't frozen. The frying oil always seems to be clean when I'm in there which is essential for a place that fries everything. Great staff as well! Only downfall is the seafood is just standard. read more

Went here last night for the first time and was not impressed. You order and pay upfront. There were 4 ladies behind the counter/cooking areatalking to each other. They were out of Cole slaw, trout and scallops. The lady taking our order was preocupied by conversation going on behind her. We actually had to redirect her focus. They post a sanitation grade at an A; however am not sure how. The cooking area was a mess with batter everywhere. The dining area floor was greasy and the tabletop was sticky. The whole place could use some remodeling. The food was hot and decent but the portions were not very large. Served on an 8 inch Styrofoam plate with a plastic fork. Probually will not go here again. read more
