About Swain's Seafood and Cut Restaurant

Swain's Seafood and Cut Restaurant offers delicious food with excellent seafood and steak options. The 14 oz ribeye is cooked to perfection, and the zucchini is grilled and seasoned flawlessly. The homemade potato chips are a must-try, along with the incredible seafood Italiano, fried scallops, and fried shrimp, which are a nice large size. Dishes like the Mermaid Dream, Mahi, and salmon are incredibly fresh and flavorful. The restaurant also features great sides, including hushpuppies and a side salad. Guests can enjoy live music on Fridays and Saturdays, adding to the lively atmosphere. While service can be slow at times, the food and outdoor courtyard seating make the experience worthwhile. The meals are very well seasoned, prepared, and cooked, with seafood often prepared with softer breading rather than panko. The restaurant also offers Cajun scallops and stuffed flounder, which are highly praised. The chips with ranch are very popular, and many guests find the overall experience wonderful, making Swain's a favorite spot for both locals and visitors.
