Tried Captain D's on Jane Street and had a decent experience. The food wasn't anything outstanding, but I do appreciate the variety this Southern-style restaurant brings into Canada offering options like fish and chips, fried shrimp, and other seafood dishes. We ordered the seafood mix platter, fish and shrimp, and jalapeño poppers. The jalapeño poppers were definitely my favourite crispy, cheesy, and full of flavor. The breaded shrimp was solid, just as you'd expect, and the mac & cheese was creamy and not dry at all, which was a nice surprise. The fish came with different seasoning options (spicy or classic), but the flavor was a bit plain for my taste.
What stood out most was the staff everyone was very pleasant and welcoming. If I were in the area, I'd go back, but it's not a place I'd drive out of my way for. Still, a nice spot to have some Southern-style comfort food close to home. read more
