10 Best Seafood Restaurants in Sumter

“Would give it 100 stars if I could“

“Best Catfish Sandwich I ever had! By the way..I am 46 years young so that is saying something! The Fish was so fresh it seemed like they were smiling..thinking they were still in the ocean. It's best to call your order in so it'll be ready when you get there.“

“Their lobster and crad is sooooooo good i,m about to orden some now“

“Cold beer and hot food! The bar is a blast with Emily and Paul. Tons of regular customers that make you feel right at home even if you come in alone. Great hangout spot“

“We always love our experience at Mariachis. The ambiance is cozy on the inside, spacious and energetic in the outside seating (which is covered and climate controlled). The chips are always fresh and brought to the table almost immediately. But the thing that separates the chip game at Mariachis is their homemade hot salsa. You have to ask for it, and it's not for the faint of heart (it's hot!) , but it is absolutely amazing. The food is prepared fresh, delivered while it's hot, and in ample portions...even the lunch portions. The prices are reasonable and the waiting staff is friendly and attentive.“

“we had a lunch date there that consisted of the love boat. food, boba and service were great! we will definitely be going back“

“Food is overly good !! I always eat from here“

“The people there are always respectful, nice lI don't know what the lady name is that's usually there. She always treats me like family, the food is always fresh, this is usually my go-to for lunch. I've been a customer for the past 3 years. No complaints. 👌🏿“

“Captain D's is a seafood restaurant located on S Pike next to Shoney's is friendly, clean, and respectable staff and atmosphere. The food is not 5-star quality but palpable. To its credit, CD's gives veterans' and senior discounts! I ordered the Fish and Shrimp Dinner with broccoli and corn on the cob for my sides. The food was brought to the table, hot and fresh. Go! (and don't forget to leave a tip)!“

“Captain Ds is a great place eat and I highly recommend but I came in last night 5/30/26 at around 9:30 as an Uber delivery driver. As I pulled into the parking lot the place appeared to be closed so according to uber's policy if a restaurant is closed we're directed to take a pic of the door being locked. The lights were really really dim in the dining area and the drive thru lights were out. So as I'm taking this Pic for Uber and canceling the order,some young lady appeared from the back. I pulled on the door and it was open so I asked the young lady was the place open and she said yes. I asked why do you guys appear to be closed and a manager came out of the back and said that the previous manager I guess s that was there before her had forgotten to turn the drive thru lights on. The way that she said it seemed snarky and attitudish so I left and ended up calling Uber to explain the situation. I woke up this morning to an email saying that the restaurant gave me the order that I came there for which is false. When I called uber,they'll call the restaurant to verify if the restaurant is close or not but evidently whoever answered the phone told Uber that the order was picked up but the driver never verified the order before leaving. I spoke with a manager this morning via phone from captain Ds verifying that the order was still there. Captain Ds is a great place to dine but unfortunately sometimes businesses hires the wrong people and it can damage a company's reputation and integrity. I could've lost my job and they could've completely ban from the app indefinitely.“
