Review: Have been eating at Captain Nance's for over 25 years.... Excellent shrimp and hush puppies. The most friendly staff ever. Also suggest that you purchase the mints that they sell by the cash register...melt in your mouth.

Review: Just got home late last night and already miss Capt. Nance's. Have been coming to the area since the 80' s and always come here to eat at least twice while I'm here. LOVE IT!!!!! Have never found another place that offers delicious food for the same value. Love the hushpuppies.

Review: In June, my husband and I just made it for the lunch prices while we were pricing fish on the docks. Even though the restuarant was not crowded and we were seated immediately, our server was slooow with everything except our drink order (not including refills) and our first basket of hushpuppies. The lunch prices and food were both great, although the food was on the greasy side, but still great. My family has been coming to Captain Nance's for 20 years...it is my Dad's favorite of them all. He eats there twice out of the 3-4 times they eat at Calabash/Little River area while vacationing. I took my husband there (who is an executive chef) to experience it for himself and he did enjoy it but had the same complaints as I. In July, during our vacation with my family, they ate at CN while my husband wanted to try Dockside (we all enjoyed Ella's 2 nights before). We had a 45 min wait while they had a 30 min wait. We were seated in 45 min with excellent timely service and delicious food. They were seated in 1.25 hours (hostess left their name off the wait list when they changed the full list) with horrible service (unfriendly and kept forgetting things...sounds like the one we had at lunch a month ago) and had greasy, overcooked food. Makes me glad my husband wanted to try a different restaurant, even if it did cost more...it was worth it. As much as we've always loved CN, if things do not improve, we will have to find another favorite.

Review: We have eaten at Capt Nance's for many years. This year however, the food was extremely greasy. The fish tasted like it was leftover from lucnh time. The service was mediocre and the restaurant was dirty. We will try other Calabash restaurants.

Review: Very Disappointed! Very over priced. Seating was promt. Our waitress (Donna) was great. For starters the hush puppies were the WORST we have ever had. The food was delivered very quick. The oysters and shrimp were delicious!
How ever when starting to eat our filet of flounder disappointed they were full of bones and the deviled crap was over cooked. Bathrooms were nasty. When paying our bill the woman behind the counter did not ask how are meal was or ask us the please come back. We choice Captian Nance because it was on the waterway. We will not return.

Review: I love the food, the waitresses we get are very nice, and i cant remember but i think we got like 4 orders of hush puppies! We loved them so much, very good seating, money deal - SO CHEAP, and yet SO GOOD! Capt. Nances is a five star, no doubt.

Review: Went 11/21/09
My wife and I both had the seafood platter.
To say the food was poor would be giving it too much credit. The amount of food was fine but the food was fried in oil that was too old or had burnt. Kitchen staff needs to know when to change the oil at the proper time.
No one hardly there but still took 10 min. to get the server to the table to take order. We will not go back.

Review: This is one of our favorite restaurants in Calabash. Our food is always tasty and hot, service is prompt and pleasant, and the price is awesome. We've been here about 5 times in the past 3 years and it's always been wonderful. We love it!

Review: Hostess was just plain rude both coming in and leaving. Ruins even an excellent meal when you leave aggravated because the last person you dealt with was difficult (not friendly at all). I will never go back. There are too many others to choose from.

Review: Visited this restaurant twice during the week of 7/18/09 to 7/25/09. The lunch menu is limited: Fried Shrimp, Deviled Crab, Fish(Flounder), Clams (choice of one or two). Cost for the early-bird (<4:00) is only about $6. Our family loved it so much we went twice. Family atmosphere, good food, reasonably priced.

Review: Our experience at Capt. Nance's was very disappointing. The waitress forgot our drinks and they brought out the wrong order after waiting 20 minutes for our food not just one person, but the entire party of five order was wrong. Once our food did arrive it was just ok. The breading was too heavy compared to other "Calabash" styled restaurants. After all of this the waitress forgot to bring us our bill and the hostess gave us a difficult time when we wanted to leave and requested our bill. I would skip this place if you had a choice.

Review: WOW - talk about good food!!!! Tons of excellent food for a very low price! Excellent Customer Service! We visit Ocean Isle every year and it would not be a vacation without going to Calabash to eat at Capt. Nance's! My husband and I ate there everyday we were at the beach!
You will not regret eating there!!

Review: We have dined at this restaurant for the past few years and have noticed a steady decline in both service and food quality. Today however really took the cake (or camera for that matter).
We arrived at approximately noon and were seated immediately which was great for our party of 4 adults and 3 children. We then waited nearly 10 minutes for our waitress to deliver menus, silverware, etc. If the place had been packed I would have understood but this was not the case and our waitress appeared to have little interest in taking our orders.
Once delivered, the food was adequate although the salads were full of rapidly browning lettuce. While the portions where large in size, the quality was lacking. The fried oysters were good but I think we could have done just as well and came out cheaper by going over to Captain D's or Long John Silvers.
The service provided was at best minimum. Our waitress neglected our table and we were left without refills on our drinks. It took several tries to catch her attention to get our check and when it arrived it amounted to nearly $100 as we expected.
Normally when traveling we tip very (VERY) well - usually 15% for adequate service and a full 25% for excellent service so we didnt feel at all bad for leaving less than 15% for our waitress. She certainly didnt earn a top tip and we werent just gonna throw one her way.
We paid our bill at the register without so much as a "Thank you, please come again" from the woman behind the counter and left disappointed. We all agreed to try someplace new next time around. We traveled up the road to a shopping complex and this was where I discovered my camera (brand new, full of my son's awards day pics and worth well over $300) was missing.
I had just taken seveal shots at the restaurant so we hopped back in the Explorer and made a quick trip back to pick up the camera.
I walked in and asked if anyone had turn it in and was asked if we had eaten there. Hello?! We had just left! Our party of 7 wasnt THAT hard to miss!?? A waitress (not our original) made a half-hearted attempt at locating the camera and came up with nothing after making a quick trip over to the table and then into the back of the restaurant. She gave me a card for the establishment and told me to call back and check later.
I left near tears.
A short time later, my husband dropped me off at the shops and went back to the restaurant himself. After speaking with the manager and waitstaff and getting the same run around he threatened to call the police at which point the camera was promptly "found".
Needless to say - we will NEVER visit this restaurant again and will warn others against it.

Review: We have been vacationing at Ocean Isle since the early 90s. Every year we have several meals at Capt. Nance's rest. We love the family type atmosphere and have NEVER been disappointed with our food selections. Our next visit will be June 6, 2009 - June 13, 2009. We can almost taste those hushpuppies!!!

Review: We have now eaten at three of the restaurants on the water at Calabash. This is by far the worst seafood restaurant in the entire area! We should have known, going on a Saturday evening, when the others were waiting out the door and we got into Capt Nance's in 10 minutes. I ordered the large scallops and flounder. The scallops were room temp, the flounder overcooked and had bones all in it. When I asked for a replacement, they brought me a half portion of hot scallops. The wife got the sauteed shrimp, which was popcorn size instead of medium, was extra salty, and rubbery like it was old. She could not eat it. The old thing good about this place was the hushpuppies.
Finally the bill they presented was wrong (high) and I had to get the lady at the counter to fix it. She did not ask how our meal was, but I told her anyway, and she did not say anything (one would expect an "Im sorry" or such. She did not care, and appeared to be the owner.
Captain Johns is a better option, but the best seafood around is next door at Dockside. Don't waste your time or money at Captain Nances!

Review: THIS is the best value on the Strand for lunch. From 11 to 4 pm, $6.00 for the seafood lunch special. And, a good view of the inlet. Lots and lots of locals (check the plates in the parking lot), so don't go gripin' about the noise and the kids. You want to spend $30.00 a plate for lunch? Go to restaurant row. You want a good lunch, a nice little drive, nice scenery? This is the place...

Review: The last two times we have eaten at Cap. Nance's we have been very disappointed! On both occasions we ordered and paid for dinner meals only to be served their smaller lunch size. When we questioned the size, they did replace our meal with the dinner size portion but were very rude about it. The waitress never came back to the table to check on us and we had to find her in order to get our check. We will not be retuning!

Review: The food was terrible. The best meal was the sauted shrimp. The crab cakes were awful. The fried flounder poor. The fried scallops were edible. The staff was not knowledgeable about their food or where it came from. Very disappointing meal. Summer 2008.

Review: We had alrage group from 4 generations of my family. We were seated quickly, great service and awesome food. The beverages were served quick enough that the little ones didn't get bored. I'll return over and over. This was at the busiest season of the year at dinner time.
The lunch menu is great and very reasonable.

Review: This may have been the worst restaurant we've ever eaten in. The evening started with them telling us we would be seated within an hour. It actually took almost two to get our seats. The hush puppies were ok, but the waitress wouldn't refill our baskets at our request. The meals came out and most in our party ordered seafood, thinking that would be best at a seafood restaurant. The popcorn shrimp wasn't as good as long john silvers. The crabs were overcooked and you couldn't get them out. Water spewed from them each time you opened them. Two people who didn't want seafood ordered steaks. What a huge mistake! I would have to call it "mystery meat." it was the most awful meal we've had in myrtle. On the way out we saw cockroaches crawling around the place. I would stay far, far away from capt'n nances. Worst place ever!.

Review: I have been eating at Calabash restaurants since before I can remember. For at least 15 years Capt. Nance's was the restaurant of choice. Not any more!
I was never really impressed with the atmosphere. Sure the view of the docks are great if you're lucky enough to get a window side table. Otherwise, you're stuck in the middle of loud strangers and screaming children.
Now about the food. The food is good and isn't overly priced, but sometimes it's served cold or "luke" warm, as kept under a heating lamp. There's a place 10 miles from my home that serves seafood that is priced the same and is just as fresh and better tasting, and I live 200 miles inland!
Finally the service. Last, but so important. As a party of two, we were seated near the kitchen in the back left of the restaurant. We waited several minutes before we caught a waitresses' attention and asked for service. No one came, even to ask for drink orders. We waited longer and nothing happened. After about ten minutes sitting there I started timing. After 20 minutes waiting, there was still no service. I was with my mother who is approching 80 years of age and she asked me not to get upset. I agreed with her but I said after 30 minutes of no service, we're leaving. Well, you guessed it. Thirty minutes went by without a drink, a menu or a "hey, how are you". There are too many other good restaurants in Calabash to have to settle for this one. I won't be back!

Review: My family eats here about 10 times a year. The lunch platter is a great deal (I get shrimp, clam strips, hush puppies & baked potato) for about $6. The food is typical "Calabash style" which most everyone loves.

Review: Was not bad for the money. Normal place was closed, decided to try this place out. Had the fried plater, around $14.00, fried shrimp were good, as well as the hush puppies. The only questionable item were the 'boiled shrimp,' they could have been better. over all though a nice place. Also try Billy Bass Seafood, they were good too.

Review: Not the best seafood we've had, but for the price it was OK. First basket of hushpuppies they brought were cold. Fried clams and crab cakes were bad, really bad! Fries oysters were very good as were the fried shrimp. All in all for the price it was fair, but as they say "you get what you pay for". Not a true or fair example of Calabash cooking. We won't go back, but you should make your own judgement if you don't mind average seafood cooking.

Review: We went to Capt. Nance's for lunch special on a Sat. during off tourist season (9/29/07)....Our Mistake! We aways oder take-out. We ordered the lunch special but evidently "Special" means "just give them the worst we've got to offer". We ordered shrimp, fish and baked potato. We had to ask for tarter and cocktail sauce or we wouldn't have gotten either one. Our waitress said she would take care of us and make sure we'd get as much as we wanted. When we got back to our condo there was no baked potato or french fries and 1 little measily tarter sauce apiece. We even gave a 5.00 tip to our hostess since she seemed to go out of her way to "take care of us". The line to this place was out the door but when we got in we saw several empty tables. Maybe if we had ordered the regular platters at the high prices we would have gotten better service and food but I think if they offer "specials" , it should be "special".

Review: Bathrooms smelled like dead animals, and bathrooms are in the middle of the restaurant. The goofy looking cooks sitting in the dining area, very unprofessional.
When we had bones in the fish, the waitress said, "Some fish have bones ---some don't"
Total trash, bad experience....I can still smell the bathroom.

Review: Visited Capt Nance's for lunch on our recent trip to Myrtle Beach. Husband and I both thought it was good. He had fried scallops and shrimp and I had broiled flounder and shrimp. Plenty of food for lunch, even had enough left to take out. Service was pretty good, food came quickly, but it was hard to get the waitress to return when we needed something else. Overall, we liked it and will return. Food was good and so's the view of the dock.

Review: Our party of 8 enjoyed a wonderful fathers day meal at Capt. Nance. We were warmly greated and provided with timely and friendly service. The total amount of the bill did not leave a hole in my pocket, so that is always a nice thing. That was last year. This year my mom joined us at Capt Nance for dinner and we had a blast. It has become our tradition to bring each family member to Capt. Nance when they come to visit down south. Oh, we have had their, fish, shrimp(fried and grilled), fries, baked potatoe, salad, chopped steak, ice tea and hushpuppies. You won't leave hungry.

Review: I have been going to captain nances, since 1981, the quality of the food is great, service can be on the low side sometimes, but thats when you don't leave a tip. The boiled shrimp, is just pure heaven, the deviled crab, is out of this world. People who don't like the seafood, in my way of thinking are just plan weird. I will continue to go there, and bring all my friends..

Review: We enjoyed our food at Captain Nance's. The view was lovely and the prices were very reasonable. We went twice for lunch, which was $5.75 for our choice of two items, hushpuppies, and delicious coleslaw.
The service was fast and adequate. (The waitresses had to ask who ordered what) Not much atmosphere other than the view. Everyone is seated in one big room.
If you want a quick, good lunch, this the place to go. I would leave dinner for a little more atmosphere. Kids would like it. I would recommend the shrimp - crunchy and fresh.

Review: My husband and I drove up to Calabash from North Myrtle Beach to get a "really good" seafood lunch. We stopped at Capt Nance because there were more cars than at any other restaurant we had passed.
We had the lunch special with clam chowder. The chowder was very good. My husband had flounder and I had shrimp and flounder. The flounder was sooo over cooked that it was tough-could hardly cut into it. The shrimp was average. We were really disappointed and regretted that we didn't continue to ride and look for other restaurants.

Review: My cousin had bulit Calabash up so much that I knew it probably didn't taste good. Was I ever wrong, The food was perfect, service even better. Plus it didn't bother me when my bill came and it was a little over fourteen dollars. Money well spent.the food was wonderful,the best shrimp I've ever ate. I plan on dining there again over thanksgiving break. where I am from West Virginia I only get to enjoy the wonderful Capt.Nance's twice a year. So those of you who get to enjoy yearly, you're lucky.

Review: I was a little disappointed honestly after reading the reviews here in the quality of food. For a restaurant that is well known for fresh food, the only thing I really appreciated the taste of was the shrimp. It was done well in a light batter. The flounder was too dry and I only took one bite of the crab cake. I think the restaurant is nice and a good deal, but I can get this quality back at home.

Review: This place has the best fried scallops and boiled shrimp I've ever tasted. When the shrimp came to the table with a combo platter, I thought they must be kidding, but once I tasted them, I passed some around to the family and everyone agreed they were the best. The atmosphere is so-so but most of the places on the water there aren't any different. Sort of noisy but the food makes up for it. We can't wait to go back.

Review: I've always liked this place due to the seafood (it's ground zero for fried seafood), and visit frequently from Wilmington with my family. However, they recently took it up a couple of notches--they made the entire joint NON-SMOKING! How great is that? Especially in the middle of the smoking-belt of the south. It was a bold yet highly appreciated move. Other restaurants in the area lost our business because the ENTIRE joint was smoking. Cap'n Nance gets my business everytime. As well as the many friends and family I can drag through there. We all love it.

Review: Ate there on 8-18-2005, nice menu I had crab cakes she had the salmon---all very fresh tasting--not to bad on the prices, Interesting we got there at 1;15 pm on a Thursday and they were still very busy an hour later when we left. What this means is that this place has good food. PS Buy some fresh shrimp from the boats close by that just came in. Yes Man.

Review: If you want TRUE, honest to goodess seafood, with a great value, then come to Captain Nances. Beautiful view of the water and the best hushpuppies in the south. We ALWAYS come here at least TWICE when we visit Myrtle Beach

Review: i was in the area on vacation with the family and went to Capt. Nance`s for supper on June 30. We expected to wait but were seated almost as soon as we got there. We stay at Ocean Isle Beach and we enjoy the food at Capt Nance`s.
