I make it a point to eat there at least once whenever I make it to the area. My girlfriend who doesn't even like seafood enjoys it because of their steaks and hamburgers. Great view and good people. more

Can't recommend this place at all. The service was wslow, to start with. The food was horrible. A place on the coast with a decent view should be able to handle fried seafood (which is about all you can get) fairly well. Alas, it was not to be. Try somewhere else. more

Avoidance is the best I can find as a compliment. Someone wrote the hushpuppies were the best. I would not feed them to the seagulls. They were tasteless, until the greasy after taste. We stayed safe and ordered a shrimp cocktail and a crabmeat cocktail to start. The shrimp looked like they were frozen, and when eaten were second to... more

The worst place Ive been to on the crystal coast. I was stupid and tried it three times just because people keep telling me it was awesome. Each time the food was bad. The service was crap last time I went also. more

My family has gone to Captain Bill's since I was a kid. This restaurant burned down many years ago and was rebuilt over the original foundation over the water, and they worked hard to get the interior to look the same, too. True, if you want linen table cloths and candlelight, this is not for you. The dining room is... more

We tried this place, even though we knew better. (There are unfortunately quite a few overpriced, mediocre seafood restaurants in the area...most make their money on unsuspecting tourists and figure they don't have to worry about repeat business). We visited Captain Bill's on a Friday night and the first bad sign was that this place, which resembled a rather large... more

We were on vacation with our kids and discovered the most kid friendly restaurant on the east coast. Yes, you can feed the sea gulls and they have OTTERS!!!!! They have a kids menu really made for kids. (peanut butter and jelly sandwichs) The adults menu was fantastic and everything was homemade! My wife had the Steak and shrimp. We... more

We ducked into Captain Bill's for an early dinner and outside dining. Inside, the restaurant smelled like something was burning. It is also not a good sign when one of the wait or kitchen staff is eating taco bell up in the front of the restaurant. When I asked if we could eat outside (it had been raining earlier), the... more
