I stopped by Seafood Palace and it was a good choice for a seafood fix…read more I ordered the whiting and fries, (you can also call ahead). After ordering, I waited outside on the benches, and my food was ready in under 20 minutes. The whiting was fried crispy on the outside, tender inside, and very few bones. They serve the fish on top of white bread. I also got the corn (cob) in the garlic butter sauce, and honestly, that might have been my favorite part. It was rich, buttery, and full of flavor. The fries came with Cajun seasoning, which some people will love, but I'd probably opt out of the seasoning next time and keep them plain.

My food was very well seasoned and hot. The fries were nothing to brag about as they could've use a little salt. Now the hush puppies (sweet) were good, I just wish they were a little bigger or they gave you four cause they were really good. I also added a side corn with the captain sauce which is a little spicy but good. Seating - counter seat av available but this is mainly a takeout spot Staff - friendly and I didn't wait long Ambiance - colorful with a sea theme

I hadn't been to Croaker's Spot in years since the Norfolk location closed, so I was really happy…read moreto find out there was one in Petersburg. We went on a Friday night and I was surprised we were able to get right in with no wait. The service was friendly and the food was SO good--honestly even better than I remembered. There really wasn't much on our plates that we didn't enjoy other than the peppers and onions being a little too sweet for me liking. Other than that, everything was delicious. Definitely worth a visit and I'll be going back!

Friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of. Low key damage control. I had the Famous Fish & Shrimp with a Caesar salad, yams, cornbread, and sweet tea. ‍ My mouth was watering! Everything was seasoned well, fresh, and definitely worth the wait. And of course, I had to drizzle a little syrup on that cornbread ... don't judge me! Yes, I would definitely return! Croaker's Spot did not disappoint. Overall: 9/10 #RossyionsVirginiaFoodTour #CroakersSpot #VirginiaEats #Foodie #GoodEats #OutsideTheUniform #LovingInVirginia #GoodFoodGoodVibes

Stopped here for dinner. This place is just across our hotel, very convenient. The decor is…read morenothing fancy. Not a busy day, we waited a bit to be seated. A customer from the bar alerted the bartender and seated us. She yelled at the other 2 server who were sitting (maybe folding napkins) to pay attention at the door as well. Our server has a flat affect. No enthusiasm. Our food came out pretty fast. My husband's spaghetti meatballs were okay. He said could use a little bit more sauce. I just had chicken tenders with fries it was alright. We did not drink any alcohol so i cannot comment on the bar.

I order the baked chicken meal for my mom (who is wonderful cook in her own right) and she loved the homemade freshness and flavor of the food. Of course I had to taste everything and I agree!!! I would have though my mom had cooked that meal!!! Now ... on to the steak and cheese... can I say that it was creamy??? Well, the cheese mixed in the meat gave it a creamy taste that was sooooooo good. I'm sitting here writing this review and literally salivating. Support this business and became a fan!!!

On a friday during lent, looking for a place with seafood near our hotel. What a great place!…read moreWalked in to live music and got seated right away. The place is warehouse size HUGE, so i doubt they ever completely pack out. The low country seafood boils are amazing, and very generously portioned. My daughter opted for king crab legs and they were perfect. The seasoning and sauce was lick your plate clean kinda yummy! Me & spouse had the fried catfish, which was amazing. Perfectly fried and seasoned. Clam chowder was new england style. Delicious, but not hot. Just warm. We were so hungry we didnt send back. Got a local IPA on tap. It was warm & stale. Our server was so kind & honest about it. She shared that several people returned their tap beers that day because they were warm, and admitted she didn't know enough about beer to help me so the bartender would come over. Wow! That's outstanding customer service! Apparently the IPAs in bottles were EXPIRED as per the very nice bartender. So I got a Sam Adams instead. Whatever, you're here for the seafood and it is excellent. Just disappointed with a huge bar, you would expect the beer to be ok. Our server, i wish i could remember her name because she was so nice and smiley. Definitely would return here if in area again. This was a pit stop on a roadtrip vacation.

The place is really cute, we went for dinner on a Thursday at like 5:30 and they were pretty empty…read more We had never tried a seafood boil before but we're super excited and decided to share a combo. I got the watermelon cocktail and it was DELICIOUS. I love a good artificial watermelon taste. My sister got the dragon fruit mocktail and said it was a bit juice heavy and lacking but still good. The server was very quiet but still nice. We got the combo c: snow crab legs, crawfish, and shrimp heads off in the volcano sauce medium. Everything was SO good. After spending awhile trying to break into the crab legs and claws we asked if they had a cracker and she brought one over. I would definitely go back. Everything was well priced and delicious. :)

Skrimp Shack has fried haddock. It's not in a bun and doesn't come with macaroni salad but it will do. The fries were really good. Those were fish fry joint kinda fries. Haddock was good too. The shrimp were quite good as well--they tasted fresh and not frozen. I'm happy. The only stinker is the packets of cocktail and tartar....they can't make that in house??? Oh well.

Our server came over with the warmest smile thanking us for coming in and introducing himself. His name is Justyn. He took care of us !!! His compassion for his job was pretty awesome to experience. I noticed that same great spirit with his other customers as well. I haven't even talked about the food because I was so impressed with our server. Thanks again Justyn. NOW, I ordered the small flounder dinner with onion rings and coleslaw. There were 2- nice size pieces of golden crispy brown fillets that tasted like fried seasoned fish at a cookout The hit is "Always" the hush puppies that look like onion rings. Theres a hint of sweetness with that special one of a kind flavor. The coleslaw was chopped fine and Delicious. The Onion Rings need ATTENTION. They looked pretty good on the plate, but there was hardly any onion inside. Flat and NO Flavor. Definitely cheap frozen rings. Captain Tom's use to have thick cut, excellent seasoned battered onion rings that you would expect in a southern seafood restaurant. The young man that seated us and the cashier were friendly and accommodating. So my dining experience would be 4 stars, but your Staff made it 5.
