13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Southport

“From the time they open the door for you as you are warmly welcomed to enjoying a fabulous dessert after a wonderful meal, Mr. P's does it right. Whenever we are in Southport, this is a must stop. The food is wonderfully prepared and the menu has something for everyone. My wife and I believe this is one of the top 5 restaurants we eaten at anywhere in the country. The seafood is always fresh and cooked perfectly and all the servers we have had in the numerous times we have visited have been top notch. Mr. P's is a very well run establishment, great food and great people!!!“

“I was craving nacho’s and I knew this would be a good pick. The nachos were warm, just a little spicy, salty, and crunchy. I liked being able to choose between different protein toppings. The service was fast and friendly. On top of that, I was seated in the shade on the water front and it was gorgeous! I’ll definitely eat here again. I got iced tea but next time I’m going for a cocktail or margarita!!!!“

“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 .“
