I don't typically bother with chain stores and franchises (as they're all generally pretty similar), but as mobile applications (such as Yelp for Android/iPhone) increase in popularity, I thought I would fill in the few I saw missing for those users in search of nearby locations. This is probably some of the most prompt and competent service I've received in some time. And the food was brought to me as soon as it was ready (which was just a brief wait, giving me time to prepare my drink, get sauces, etc), and piping hot. Better get here early, though! I ate at 11 and the seats were quickly filled! Either there are a lot of fish lovers in the Cayce area, or the secret about the exceptional service is not so secret...

I don't care what anyone says, I love this place. Not sure why this place gets a bad rap, I guess fast food seafood just doesn't appeal to most folks. I'm not a big fish eater, but I love their fish, probably because it tastes more like deliciously fried bread than fish. The clams are are another fave, and the shrimp is alright too. Also their customer service is outstanding, they don't mind if your coupons are expired either.

I was extremely impressed with the customer service of this location! Smiles everywhere! We came in on the 4th of July, very thankful to finally find something that was open. We were greeted in the front by a very welcoming man who was mopping the lobby but was very friendly to us and stopped what he was doing to chat with us. When we got up to the counter to order we were welcomed by more smiling and friendly staff. They were also very patient while we looked over the menu board. The food was great! I got fried fish and shrimp with double fried okra. When we sat down a young man that worked there came to our table asking of someone else had left there phone at the counter. It was my Note 4! Silly of me! I was so thankful! Back home in FL, it would had been sold twice already! Later on we were checked on again to make sure everything was ok. Absolutely exceptional service, especially for a fast food establishment. The food was really good too, the way it was fried was nice and crispy. I was also impressed that the fountain beverage options included Strawberry Soda and Mello Yello!

I am not one to say that fast food is usually good. But Captin D's is probably the only fast food place that is decent. The food is always hot and fresh when it is delivered to our table. The employees always ask if we need anything else and are always very helpful when asked. My only complaint about this place is that the wait can seem long at times, but in the end it is worth it when I know that my order is being cooked to order. Overall, probably the only fast food place that I would eat at.

This place has quickly become my go-to fast food seafood restaurant in Columbia. Being from Chicago I can only compare this to Long John Silver, but a thousand times better. This is seriously the best fast, seafood you can get anywhere. It's actually pretty similar to what you'd receive in a standard sit-down restaurant. Also, let me just add that they sell their sweet tea by the gallon and it is hands down the BEST sweet tea I've had anywhere. In terms of food you really are good with choosing anything. I like their batter dipped fish, shrimp, hush puppies, okra, mac n cheese... everything is good. You can sit down if you like inside, but I prefer to get my food to go. The service is friendly and fast. No complaints! If you're in the mood for seafood give this place a try... again, I can only vouch for this location.
