7 Best Seafood Restaurants near Albemarle

“In a word: amazing. Another word that comes to mind: fresh! Thrilled to have found a place in town with the highest level of quality and pricing.Everything is seasonal, so call ahead if there is something specific you are craving. We had the shrimp w/fries and fish & chips, which can go wrong, but not here! Ample servings, and the freshness was obvious. We did not eat in, but the dining area is inviting. We came well before the dinner rush, and the turnaround time was very reasonable. We will absolutely be back.“

“We made the drive from Charlotte to eat here!!! It was amazing. Great food all around, amazing service. Everyone is so friendly, attentive and welcoming. I will say, if you’re in a car pulling into Jays. Go extremely slow, exaggerate the slow pull in. You’ll be fine in a truck or lifter SUV. My boyfriends car fender liner got busted out even when he went slow due to how rough it is pulling in think because It’s uneven and bumpy and makes it harsh. beware of the parking lot. But it’s worth the drive for the food and service.“

“Fun restaurant with a good selection of items for food and drinks. It's in a building that used to be a hotel so there are lots of nice design elements. Only thing I'd warn people of is I got the banana pudding canoli and it was DELICIOUS but the banana pudding is runnier than a canoli filling so its messy to eat. Worth it but be careful about getting it on your clothes.Vegetarian options: I had the cheese pizza with hot honey and it was delicious and there were a few other vegetarian pizzas. I don't recall a vegetarian kind of main plated dish but still happy with fancy pizza.“

“The food was very good! We had a party of 20 and made a reservation a day in advance. The staff were amazing, and when we had 5 extra people, they were fast to accommodate. The waitresses worked together and were great. I ordered from the Broiled menu and got Salmon and Fantail shrimp, and they were both amazing! Definitely recommend!!“

“Food was very good, service and atmosphere was lively but also relaxing. Prices varied like most restaurants and given the extensive menu not overly expensive. You could tell the staff was dedicated to your enjoyment and upbeat about their restaurant. I'll be back.“

“For a little town this was an awesome Mexican restaurant. Service was good. Portions were huge especially for the price. The burrito was really good the steak was juicy. The chorizo was a little bit spicy but just right not too greasy either. The guacamole was so good that came on everything just the right amount of seasoning cilantro and lime and you could tell the avocado was fresh. Good queso and chips. Whether you're just passing through staying nearby or live somewhere nearby this is a great spot to get some good Mexican.Parking: Parking on side of building and behind building.“

“Just about the best fish camp in the state. Amazing perch, flounder, and catfish. Get them salt-and-peppered. The red slaw they serve by default is good, but if it's not your cup of tea they have white slaw as well. Their hushpuppies are probably/definitely the best I have ever had.“
