13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Southport

“Rebecca was our server and she was fantastic. The prime rib, oysters 3x3, wine and salad were all scrumptious. The only downside was the noise level in our space (we were in room without bar) was so high it hurt our ears. Mind you the 'noise
makers' were having a great time, but really dampened our enjoyment couldn't indicate 4.5 stars on review.“

“Service was very good.
Atmosphere is nice. Waterfront views. Go right before sunset, it’s beautiful.
The food was good. The hush puppies appetizer was very good as well as the crab dip. The fish & chips (fish) was greasy.“

“Have lived down here for 5 years. This is the first time we came to Oliver's, and we were not disappointed.! The food was amazing. The server jacqueline, really hustled and bustled with a smile on her face and very, very sweet! My husband is a diabetic and also on dialysis, and has to watch his intake on certain things. And they did his French fries without salt, like we asked, and instead of frying the catfish, he baked it . If I could give jacqueline, a higher than 5 stars. I would .“

“We had the table on the water. Beautiful view!! Unfortunately my phone slipped out of my hand and went straight into the water. Being a teenager without insurance on my phone I was obviously freaking out. The whole restaurant watched me jump off the dock in search of my phone and i was unsuccessful. Then, the manager of the restaurant came in so clutch. He jumped in after explaining he’s retrieved 28/28 phones. It was high tide so the chances were 1 to 100 but he got it after like 10 minutes. It still works and I’m using it currently to write this! He also would only accept my tip for his restaurant, not himself. the customer service is fire, and so is the food!“

“Great atmosphere and service!“
