Swain’s was awesome! The food was bang on – we got the grouper with hush puppies and fries, and fried shrimp with the same sides. Everything was cooked just right. They also have Coke Zero, if you’re into that!

Based on Google ratings and recommendation from a neighbor, I decided to go there Saturday for dinner. After reviewing the entire menu and having a hard time choosing, I decided to go with the “Mermaids Delight”, a seafood pasta dish.

You must go to this place, be sure to make your reservations early. The food was amazing. We had the Mahi Mahi, which was the catch of the day. Another great thing was the “southern chips and dip”(fresh fried potato chips and ranch). Oh, sooo good! Marissa was our server, and she was spectacular!

I just finished eating the salmon dish and it was amazing. I can’t believe I ate the whole thing. One of the top 10 dishes I’ve ever eaten.

Highly recommend making a reservation here for any celebration! We were in town for a bachelorette weekend and they accommodated 6 of us with ease. Drinks, food, and customer service were fantastic! We even had a modern day Disney Princess theme for the night, showed up dressed as such, and it was accepted with no issue as nuts as we felt! We got desserts to go, and couldn’t believe how delicious they were after a day of being in our fridge. The seafood is FANTASTIC. If you’re in the area – GO!

Not the best restaurant that I’ve been too. Food was not very good, including deserts, and atmosphere was not that great.

I had very positive experience. I had a seafood combination that came with plenty of sides. The fried oysters were exceptional, I honestly question whether I had a fresh one before coming here. I got takeout, and during peak hours at the height of season(think July 4 week). I think they offer an excellent balance of value. Highest standard of product and prepared in a way that demonstrates a professionally crafted approach to fried seafood. Tartar sauce was on point and I really enjoy a good tartar, so it’s not a compliment I give out easily. In summary, they called when my order was ready and it appeared the place was at capacity, so I appreciated they were able to work in my single order. Communication was excellent. I’ll be back.

Our food and service was amazing. Just an FYI for some who might not like as much noise. I was with my 83 yr old mom and we had a very hard time talking. Would I go back? YES! Would I take her? Yes but maybe not @ 7pm. Both of us enjoyed our food and the crab cakes & Keylime Martini were AMAZING!

Really great dinner and experience here! To start I just make a note that service is a little slow, but they are clearly understaffed so it’s understandable. However, even tho service is lacking the food quality certainly isn’t. Everything that was ordered (lobster ravioli, beginner oyster platter, pro oyster platter, and blackened chicken) was absolutely delicious. The prices are also a little expensive at first glance, but are made up for by the insanely large portion sizes. You can very easily get 2 meals out of anything you order. My lobster ravioli had lots of flavor and the ravioli noodles were obviously homemade! The cream sauce was to die for! I’m sensitive to rich sauces, but this was perfectly balanced and paired with the lobster filling perfectly. ALSO THIS IS LITERALLY THE ONLY RESTAURANT IVE EVER VISITED THAT ACTUALLY PUT THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF GRATED CHEESE ON TOP. Mostly seafood, hence the name, but I’m not complaining because it’s easily some of the best seafood around .

Very good food for dinner. Portion sizes very large. Started with crab dip appetizer. Very good, toasted almonds on top of crab added a unique texture / almost crunch to the crab which came with homemade pita chips. Definitely order again.
