Jay's Seafood Restaurant

Tried to eat there Saturday at opening time. Way overcrowded and unorganized. They say open at 4:00 but the restaurant was already full. Saw the buffet and it was empty of seafood. Big disappointment.

Great food and wait staff is always friendly!

We love Jay’s ! It’s a casual dinning with a great buffet. So many options to choose from and amazing food . We cannot wait for it to re-open! Had a great selection for toddlers and kids and the staff is super friendly. It feels like you’re family when you walk in .

Great place

I heard about Jay's through a crypto project on Solana that seemed to celebrate Albemarle. I was skeptical, but I decided to visit Jay's myself to experience the restaurant for myself. Boy, was I blown away! The buffet was such a great deal, and the fish was so fresh, despite Albemarle not being a coastal city. I told my friends, and we're planning a monthly trip as soon as my favorite restaurant reopens.

Simple country cooking in traditional family style atmosphere. The fish is great but I actually found the chicken and dumplings were my favorite! The employees were polite and friendly.

It had a while since I've eat at Jay's, but it was worth the wait. And since I had a craving for eating different selections,the buffet did not disappoint. Everything from the waitress to the food was awesome!!
