We go there every Wednesday at a small mom n pop store but the staff is friendly and the food is well done n excellent .
If you are lucky for fresh seafood, fried just right, this is the place to go! Just finished a catfish meal, and it was amazing! My wife had scallops and shrimp, and she loved it! If you are in the area, you owe it to yourself to stop! And bring a friend!!
Well let me say...I'm a frequent flyer when I'm in SC! You pick your food out (just like bring at a seafood market)...and the will cook it for you, or wrap it up for you to do the work. Let's just say...I love it when they cook for me, delicious...so delicious! Get you some, let them cook it up for you; you definitely won't be disappointed!
The seafood was fresh. I loved that I was able to pick the seafood that I wanted and it was cooked to perfection. Everyone there was friendly and inviting. The conversation was nice and light hearted. I tipped twice because the customer service was just awesome. This is now going to be one of my regular food places!!!!! The food was great and the customer service was just astounding because servers aren't friendly nowadays!!!
I was actually ordering at another store and they recommended that if I had a taste for fish that I should go to Teal Seafood. Upon arrival the place looked exactly what some people had already described, sketchy. I was already prepared for that. They have seating and tables inside with hot sauce, paper towels, salt, pepper and apple cider vinegar(news to me). When you get to the counter they have fish on ice. I ordered the catfish bites only. It did not take long to cook. I really enjoyed my food. I tried the hot sauce (a must) with apple cider vinegar to try and it actually was pretty good. The fish was not soaked in grease which my stomach and I really appreciated.
The catfish was awesome. I went on Good Friday so it was busier than usual.
Fresh, great tasting fish. And the Teals burger… Is definitely a must-try when visiting. At the time of my visit, they were offering Sweetheart valentines chocolate boxes. They also offer a different special for each day of the week, which gives you a chance to try all the amazing food. Nice little hole in the wall, with great customer service. Only downfall is that they do not except debit cards, it is a cash only facility.
Very good seafood ..hole in the wall ...u pick ur own seafood from the cooler awesome experience. .
