I was looking far a new seafood takeout restaurant so I gave them a try. I really like the many varieties of seafood dinners on the menu along with hamburgers, chicken, turkey wings and pork chops. There is something for everyone! I also liked the online ordering with a time you can select for pickup. The prices are very reasonable and there is plenty of onsite parking. My dinners were ready when I arrived a few minutes early. The dinners had large portions that enabled a second delicious meal. I also was impressed with the large selection of fish and seafood on ice that is available for purchase. Give this place a try and it will become a regular stop!

Very clean and good place to get raw fish ( not Sushi grade though ). Got Pomfret @$6.99 and Salmon steak with skin @$9.99. They cleaned and made into pieces according to our choices. Parking lot is very small but you can park across the road.

They have a huge selection of fresh seafood. They also have things like chicken and chicken wings. I got the chicken wings. Their chicken wings you can get them in different styles like Buffalo, ranch, lemon, pepper, etc. They were good, just a little bit small.

I’ve never had any trouble with anything that I’ve ordered in the past but this particular time I thought that I would try some chicken legs. When I got them I noticed that they had fried feathers on them. So I called back to ask them if they cleaned their chicken before they fried it. I was told “yes but sometimes a feather may slip by”. But in all my 30 years of me cooking chicken I’ve never fried feathers. Not on one piece but all three pieces had fried feathers on them. Then he act like I’m in the wrong for calling back and asking that. “Talking about just bring it back”!! Maaannn I swear!! I’m not even going to go back because I know my mouth!! So I’ll just feed it to my Dogg!! I also provide a picture of the feathered chicken legs!!

The food is delicious! This was my first time trying Capital Seafood Market. I will be back again! Everything was cooked perfectly! For a great price, a person gets their money's worth. The establishment is also a live fish market where you can buy fresh water fish as well. Please check it out! I enjoyed the food!

This place is amazing! We are from the Pacific Northwest and love seafood. Their selection is crazy! Everything is super fresh and well priced. Get ready for a line because this place is busy. And for good reason it's worth it!

Shared the flounder plate and pork chops with a friend for take out. Had Mac, greens, green beans, and potato salad for the two sides each. Everything was fresh and delicious. I’m usually a Jack’s person but now I have two awesome places to get the food that fuels me. Can’t recommend any higher—this place is a gem.

Everything was amazing! Fried chicken livers were delicious! Have been looking for a place that serves them.. The seafood plates we ordered were very good! No pictures because we attacked as soon as it was delivered! Will definitely be back!

Customer service is somewhat satisfactory, but there is an abrasive and uncouth cashier whose poor behavior is reason to avoid the store. The gentlemen who clean the dish and sometimes help customers select the fish are generally pleasant. Also, the quality of the fish is not consistently good.
