Known originally as Mr. D’s Seafood and Hamburgers, Captain D’s was opened in Donelson, Tennessee. From the very start, we set out to provide quality seafood at reasonable prices, a concept that was revolutionary at the time.

Our food was great! They are currently running a special where you get the giant fish sandwich combo for $5.99 (regular price is $6.99). The combo includes a giant fish sandwich, which comes with 2 fish filets, tartar sauce, and lettuce on a bun, one side item of your choice, and a drink. I think it’s a really good value for the money. The service was fast and friendly. My only complaint was that there were quite a few dirty tables that needed to be wiped down, but I believe it was because they were short staffed. We will definitely be back soon.

The children working there are completely unsupervised. The workers were running around and yelling like it was a playground. The entire restaurant was dirty, the seats were greasy, some tables were not even wiped off and the place was empty except for the girl who appeared to be sleeping in the corner by the restrooms. The floors were sticky and i could hear my shoes on the floor. The owner of this business should spend some time there.

Baked potato costs extra. Mine was not cooked thoroughly, mostly uneatable. Country catfish all breading and overcooked. 2 butters for 2 baked potatoes? Would Never eat here again. $34.71 for what we got is crazy.

I ordered a seafood platter, everything but the fish & crab cakes was good. The fish was slightly undercooked and the crab cakes were horrible.

If baked potato and corn on cob are “Premium Sides”, they should be a premium size. I wouldn’t have paid $2 extra for what I got. And then blocked my email when I sent them an email to their requested address for reviews.

Was turned away from eating inside at 7:25 pm because I wouldn’t have time to eat before they close at 8pm. Keep in mind this is fast food. As a GM of a fast food chain it’s common sense you don’t turn guest away more than a half hour before close. I know good staffing is hard to come by but surely you can find better management.
