I had the pleasure of visiting my 93-year-old aunt today, Thursday, October 3, 2024 in Durham, NC and she specifically requested this place. I arrived around 10:45 AM to order and pick up lunch for her. Although the restaurant's takeout side wasn’t officially open until 11:00 AM, the extremely friendly cashier was more than happy to take my order and even recommended excellent suggestions. My experience at Capital City Seafood was outstanding, thanks to the exceptional service provided by the cashier. I hate I did not get her name. She truly went above and beyond to ensure my visit was remarkable. The seafood at Capital City Seafood is beautifully displayed, highlighting the freshness and quality of their offerings. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with a variety of options. This young lady made me feel valued as a customer. Not only was the seafood fresh and flavorful, but the prices were also quite reasonable. Capital City Seafood strikes an excellent balance between quality and affordability, making it a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enjoy a wholesome meal without overspending. Overall, I highly recommend Capital City Seafood, especially if you get served by this wonderful young lady. Her dedication to providing an exceptional customer experience, combined with the incredible food options, makes for an unforgettable dining experience. The chicken wings, shrimp, whiting, coleslaw, collards and fries were all delicious—seasoned to perfection and made with love. I will definitely be returning to this establishment when I am in the Durham area. Kudos to all of you!

I recently got the large size peeled shrimp here. Wow! Love how fresh they are. I would recommend this place and now they have a regular customer. They have a wide variety of fishes and sea food options and they also do have cooked seafood options too. I would come back again to try out all other options!

Fresh fish on ice! Great selection of shellfish and crabs! We just kind of discovered how great this place is by accident today. And the Soul Food Restaurant sells food fit for the gods. I had a Whitefish sandwich and ate the fish and didn't bother with the bread, my fries were nice and hot, too hot to eat at first! Loved the place! My coleslaw was a wee bit sweet for that, so I traded my slaw for my wife's kidney beans. Now that's Down Home cookin'! ❤️❤️❤️ Keep up the great work, folks! We'll be back!

Fresh from Minnesota and the first place my Auntie took me to. My Soul Food palate has realigned back to East Coast cuisines. 😂❤️ Seriously, love this place. Thank you, Capital Seafood Market.
