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. ref: 8786

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. ref: 8160

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. ref: 6407

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.. ref: 6303

This place has great, fresh seafood. You can pick up to three different kinds of fish to make your own platter. The chicken and the pork is also very good. Overall, this restaurant is fantastic. ref: 5898

The only thing better than the food is the atmosphere. Ever since I was a kid I have enjoyed watching the boats dock just out back. I go at least twice while on vacation at Ocean Isle. ref: 5059

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. ref: 4932

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. ref: 4336

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. ref: 4315

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. ref: 2666

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. ref: 2077

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. ref: 1817

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. ref: 1173

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 ref: 1051
