18 Best Seafood Restaurants near Holden Beach

“SIMPLY AMAZING! Coming from an actual chef I can’t recommend this place enough! Food was PERFECT and the service *chefs kiss* (specifically our girl Sarah)! Come here you won’t be disappointed!“

“The shrimp and grits dinner tonight, 6/9/24 was absolutely delicious and finally a spicy meal😋“

“Went to mermaids with some
Friends after a nice beach weekend. Most of the group eats seafood but about two of us do not. We got the Paradise Sunset drink and it is delicious! Has a nice coconut flavor and not too strong. I got the gyro and it was AMAZING!!!! 🤩 one of the better gyros I have ever had. I was nervous given they mostly serve seafood but it was worth it! The hush puppies are a MUST! They are a small one but the serving size of everything we had was moreeeeee than enough. I recommend eating here, especially if you have a mixed group that eat seafood and those that don’t.“

“They have two gentlemen on their dock to help you tie up. When we finished lunch my power steering hose leaked. Nick the dock worker helped me get back on the water big shout out to Nick at Provisions. The food was great it our go to place from the water.“

“We arrived early evening on a Tuesday and the place was absolutely slammed. We put her name in for a table and went upstairs for a Tiki drink or two. Drinks were excellent. After we were seated our server, Riley took out drink order and reappeared quickly with water and our drinks. I have the captain’s platter and chose shrimp and clams and Anne ordered the shrimp and grits. Riley had warned us that it’s a large portion, but who knows what that really can be. Well, the food arrived promptly and the shrimp and grits truly was an enormous portion. Enough for two. Was creamy, cheesy, slammed full of shrimp, andouille and mushrooms. My shrimp and clams were lightly breaded and fried to perfection. Frankly, as busy as it was, I was surprised with the speed of service and the quality of the food. Absolutely recommend this place!“

“OUTSTANDING SEAFOOD!!!!“

“We had a very nice meal here tonight. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food and drinks were great. Just an FYI, they charge $0.50 per container of cocktail and tartar sauce. I do not recall reading this on the menu, and I have never paid for an itemized condiment list on my bill EVER (and I am almost 50).“

“Great pizza and wings. Awesome owner and staff. You feel like you are part of an extended family while enjoying delicious food.“

“I only gave a 4 on service because they were down a waitress and it took quite a while to get waited on. The food was very good and came out quickly after our order was finally taken. I do want to point out that Robbie, the young man that waited on us, was so nice. He didn't normally wait tables but he did an awesome job. I'm sure he doesn't get the appreciation he deserves. I would recommend this restaurant for a reasonably priced meal“

“Tucked away in a strip mall with a Food Lion is one of THE BEST restaurant options in the area! Do not waste your time and money going to the other more expensive places. This is the place for a plate full of fresh, flavorful seafood and at a reasonable price too! This is where the locals eat and for good reason! Excellent customer service and a great casual yet colorful atmosphere. The employees are friendly, hard working and they care about their customers. Happy to give them a rave review and I know where I’ll be eating the next time I’m back!“

“Love this place. Always our first dinner out when we go to OIB!“

“Our family had the best meal all week during our vacation at Feast OIB! The owner/chef greeted us at the door and seated us. The wedge salad was delicious with homemade blue cheese dressing. The lobster risotto was wonderful and beautifully presented. The crab legs were super meaty and tender. There are great options for kids too! Amazing, friendly service with a smile. As we were leaving, the owner/chef was cleaning tables and making sure things were running smoothly. We were very impressed! I also love that the menu was clearly labeled with MANY gluten free options.“

“Very consistent place great staff and food!“

“Exceptional food and service!! Can’t beat the view either! Definitely will be coming back soon.“

“I must first state I am a extreamly picky person. This was the best food I have had in a long long time. I am a local and feel that not only was our serivce exceptional but the food was on par with several mislin star places in New york that I have eaten. even food i usally dont like like squash i loved here. I will be 100 percent going back and look forward to it being my new spot.“

“Drove 50 minutes to meet some friends to eat here for the first time. Was told it could be up to a 2 hr wait . The band was awesome and the wait was only an hour and 10 min. EVERY person we came in contact with was super friendly and hospitable! The hostess was not at all upset when we asked to move to a different table because we were right under an air duct. The food was great! The chips with the crab dip tasted stale and we probably should have sent them back but we didn’t want to mess up the good vibe. We enjoyed it and would def do the drive and wait again .“

“We have had issues finding places we like (a lot of the places around her have been bland). We came from an area where we were pretty spoiled with great restaurants and Wing & Fish has been the only place so far that is comparable. We have been here three times so far and they have been very consistent each time. The food is great, and the staff are friendly and attentive.“

“I ordered a shrimp platter cooked light to go. It was delicious, cooked perfectly, the entire plate was great. Thanks for a delicious meal.“
