This place is a Raleigh jewel.  The most fresh, best tasting seafood straight from the coast.  Only the most hardy dare order a large plate.  I use to order large plates and split it with others.  The place to go to for awesome fried oysters!!

Stopped in for lunch yesterday.  Ordered the crab cake lunch plate and medium shrimp plate.  Total was around $26.

Crab cakes were on the smaller side, but good.  I was expecting normal sized shrimp, but they were baby shrimp.  The upside was the quantity.  There must have been 1-2 pounds of shrimp...plus fries, coleslaw and hush puppies.

You definately get your $ worth.

stars is for value as this is a very basic restaurant. It is self service and you sit on benches at picnic tables. You order at a counter from a choice of calabash style or broiled seafood. When your order is ready your name is called you get your seafood along with a lot of homefries, hush puppies and coleslaw. Of course, the seafood is the highlight and it is always fresh and well cooked. On our latest visit we had broiled shrimp and flounder. Both were great although the Shrimp were much smaller than what one would expect for the stated "jumbo size.

I don't like to drown my seafood in substandard tartar and cocktail sauces. I'm of the seemingly rare breed that likes to enjoy the subtle flavors of the food. 

Here, food is average. Completely flavorless scallops and catfish.  Very small and thin catfish fillets, 2 in the pick 3 platter. 

No seasoning at all on the fried oysters. I've literally never tasted such a flavorless batter. However, the mild flavor of the oysters shone through, so they're okay with good tartar sauce (NOT their tartar). 

Home fries were undercooked, hard, and DRY - we had to flash fry them at home to make them palatable. 

Worker didn't know how many pieces of fish came with the combo fried platters that day (as in he inadvertently told us one thing, but we got something else). 

Even still, there's only a $1.50 up charge per item for adding oysters (or scallops) to a platter, so as long as you don't expect seasoned food, the oysters are indeed cooked well. Prices are okay for a quick fix, just don't expect delicious, flavorful food. 

Still searching for that perfect fried seafood spot.
