At our Lexington, KY location, we are part of a historic seafood tradition. Captain D’s Seafood Restaurant first opened its doors back on August 15, 1969. A lot has changed since then, but our commitment to serving freshly prepared seafood at a great value has been our core mission from the beginning. Known originally as Mr. D’s Seafood and Hamburgers, Captain D’s was opened in Donelson, Tennessee. From the very start, we set out to provide quality seafood at reasonable prices, a concept that was revolutionary at the time.
Fast-food chain serving fried fish & shrimp combo meals along with gumbo & funnel cakes.

Asked for extra sauces and even said which ones I wanted and offered to pay for them. The guy at window was more worried about shutting the window as I was literally talking. Sad this place use to be good and always got what we asked for. Customer service ain’t what it use to be. Food was OK but would have been better with sauces
Also want busy at all!!!! Can’t use that excuse!!!!

If you go to this location, keep in mind you cannot use your phone a.k.a. tap to pay because they don’t have it available. Who in the world at this day in age has ever heard of that from a fast food restaurant. Not to mention I sat in line for 15 minutes all to be told that at the window.
Whoever the franchise owner is of this location, needs to do something about it

Its 630 pm the store was to be open till 10 pm was closed it’s a Monday night . Worst store ever needs new crew in it that will do whats right .I have worked in good service for over 40 years and to me if the store is to be open it should be open not closed. I also have been a manger most of the 40 years and never closed early or turned a way coustermers. I would have let the crew that is in there go for closing early

Do Not get the pickles they are awful! The store smells bad like they have rotten fish. Captain D’s is supposed to be a really good fast food restaurant, use to be my husband’s favorite. We had the worst experience at this Captain D’s and don’t think we will ever go to a Captain D’s again! If I knew the contact for giving them the worst ever.

I have only been to this location one time as it is across town. We were in the area, and I had a random craving for their cheese sticks. They are delicious, especially dipped in their honey mustard. The experience was great as the service was very friendly and the food was hot.

I gave this 4 stars only because the employee’s done a great job. My fish was fresh and hottt!!! However, that coleslaw was AWFUL !!! Nothing could have helped it. I ended up throwing it away.

On Thursday, 5/22/25 I went through drive thru on Reynolds road. The young man on the speaker was very polite. I get to the window after a small wait behind the car in front of me (less than 10 minutes) and discover they
were short staffed and the young man is working hard (i think by himself) to take care of the customers. He was super polite, my food was hot and correct and he was still doing his job and offering me a smile. I wish id gotten his name. In an age where barely anyone speaks anymore except to tell you how much you owe, it was nice to see his smile even when I’m sure he didn’t feel like giving it. Thank you!
