This casual dockside restaurant claims to be where the elite eat in their bare feet and it is likely that patrons will also eat with their bare hands. Low Country Boil of shrimp, corn, potatoes, and smoked sausage is a local tradition. Oysters are offered steamed or raw. The Capt'n Crabs Sampler Platter is piled high with seasonal shellfish. Outdoor seating on the patio and indoor dining on a huge screened porch provides a pleasant view of Chimney Creek. Both areas are armed with fans to keep you cool.
