    Really nice restaurant with good food and service. I went with a group of 8. We were well taken care of and the variety or appetizers and meals we got were all well received. I personally tried the calamari appetizer and the shrimp & grits--both very good. Decent wine, beer, and liquor choices. Would not recommend for children. More of an adult night out.

    Yelp says this restaurant is open all day. It's not. We went for an early dinner at 2:20 on a Saturday. They aren't open till 5.

    We had stopped at our destination for the night and since this restaurant was right next door, we thought we'd give it a try. We were seated right away and our server, Mary Ann came to take our drink orders and tell us about the dinner specials. She was so pleasant and when we asked questions was very informative. We ordered calamari for an appetizer and it was served with a marinara sauce. It was really good. For our entrees we ordered the stuffed grouper on Mary Ann's recommendation. It was delicious--nicely flavored and prepared just right. We had a choice of sides and I decided to get brave and try the grits. I was surprised at how good they were, but Mary Ann had said they were good and she was right. Of course, they had cream and butter and other sinful things in them! Also had the salad with blue cheese and pecans. Yum! Husband enjoyed his sides too. Needless to say, we were too full for dessert, but the offerings looked good from what we saw going to other tables. If ever in the area again, this would be a place we would definitely return to.

    Excellent food and service. We arrived late on the Tuesday after Labor Day and split the special - prime rib and 6 shrimp. They plated it and basically gave me a queen cut, dad a petite cut, done to the right temperature with hush puppies and sides. All that plus sweet tea, coffee, and dessert for around $40. That's the way we roll in South Carolina!

    The food was delicious...the oysters on half shell were huge, the shrimp wrapped in bacon and grits tasty, snow crabs were seasoned just right and catfish fried lightly battered and all the food served hot with a smile from Ms Queen!!! No room for dessert...Highly recommend.

    I had the shrimp and grits and my wife had the grilled Mahi. The food was great and the service staff is attentive and polite. I don't think they have a waiter or waitress under 50 years old. We got here early and it was well worth the price.

    Had dinner here when staying at the Best Western next door. Love the decor. It's a bit dated but had a southern flair to it. Waitress was attentive and helpful. Wife had the stuffed grouper. I had the the mixed plate with grouper. Caesar salads were uneventful. Served with dressing in a small plastic cup on the side. The grouper tasted very fresh. Baked potatoes seemed to have been pre cooked and held a bit too long.

    We asked our concierge for a the best restaurant in Santee and she suggested Captain's Quarters. We attempted to go there on July 4th, however they were closed for the holiday. Like most things in Santee, it seems that the actual businesses and the tourism/hospitality board are NOT on the same page. One seems to be trying to make Santee/Lake Marion a bigger destination location, however the local businesses are not cooperating. Back to Captain's Quarters. We dined on Friday, July 5. The restaurant has a very fishy smell that is not very welcoming. It seemed that everyone was out. We did not have a reservation however our wait was only about 20 minutes which made us happy. Our party of 5 was greeted and seated at a nice round table. Our server was attentive and very good with my 4 year old son. We were never given a basket of bread and butter like other tables, so thank goodness we didn't actually want any. We did not get any appetizers. House salads that came with entrees were fine. Mostly iceberg lettuce, but not horrible. I declined my salad and offered veggies with my entree, so that was nice. My entree was the crab stuffed grouper topped with grilled shrimp. For a side, I ordered the creamy grits and the veggie sub for the salad was steamed asparagus. My meal was good. Not great, just good. One in my party had shrimp scampi. We were surprised with the number of and the size of the shrimp, however, again, it was just good, not great. The two non seafood eaters in our party got the chicken parmesan and it was barely edible. Plain spaghetti noodles, served under an unseasoned and definitely NOT homemade marina sauce. The chicken breast was large and juicy, but the mozzarella was cheap and rubbery. We declined dessert. Our meal with tip came in at over $100. For a party of 4 that's a little expensive for it not to be a great meal. We enjoyed our meals at the local Cracker Barrel much better.

    Decided to stop in after driving all day and are we glad we did. Delicious popcorn shrimp - biggest I've seen. Tasted like they were fresh off the boat! Highly recommend. The menu covers seafood, steaks, burgers, salads, even a couple of Italian entrees. Something for everyone! Will definitely be coming back!

    We've eaten here a couple of times and have always enjoyed our meals. It's always crowded, so others must feel the same. The raw oysters are about as good as they get. They are large and taste as if they were caught a minute ago. Much of their menu is fried (a regional thing). We prefer grilled fish, and there are enough choices to keep everyone happy. This night we had the crab stuffed grouper and the grilled sea scallops for our main meals. The crab stuffing had a bit too much filler, but still tasted "crabby enough". The grouper was nice and fresh tasting. As an aside, I wish restaurants in general would charge a larger adder for crab stuffing and use more crab and less filler. The scallops were simply prepared and large and sweet. A very good choice. Service is a bit detached but acceptable.

    Located just steps away from the Best Western Santee inn where my family and I were spending the night, The Captain's Quarter's a nice restaurant with a great menu. My first trip here, I had the grilled Mahi Mahi. Originally ordered the Sweet Potato as a side, they ran out so I opted for a bake potato (a little on the small side). Though it was tasty, I feel like it was missing something (could be because the kitchen forgot the black bean salsa that was supposed to accompany the entree). My mom had the same thing and was satisfied My father ordered a burger that he couldn't stop raving about. The steak fries were made to perfection and not oily or salty. He was definitely pleased. The waitress we had was attentive and super friendly. She always came over with a smile and definitely made sure you were OK. The hostesses are ok...a little cold, but not rude or anything. If I stay at the Best Western again, I'll give the Captain's Quarters another shot (maybe a burger or a chicken dish?) and will update my review.

    Clean and good service. Best part of the meal was the salad and potato. Will try somewhere else next time.

    This might be the nicest place I have visited in Santee - but hey, it is still Santee. The fish platter was great and our host knew his stuff and was attentive to our drinks. They were packed but found a way to seat us within about 15 minutes. I will stop here again.

    This was our first time visiting this restaurant. It was my first time in Santee. It is a nice little town and the place is very nice. We had the She Crab soup which was awesome... it had a LOT of crab meat in it. It was really good. Then we had a salad. The salad didn't have no zing to it and I am not sure if it is suppose to our not but I am not a big salad eater. It was a regular salad from the house if you ask me. We had the captains platter which came with tilapia, scallops, shrimp and you pick a side. We went with baked potato. We had everything broiled. You tell them how you want it, baked, fried or broiled!! Everything was great but the seasoning wasn't really there. The spices were good but we still had to add that salt and pepper to wake up all the items on the plate. Nothing came alive but everything turned out really great. We will definitely be coming back to this location. For desert we had the double brownie with ice cream....now that was good. Really chocolateyyy plus it had chocolate syrup on it too. So we couldn't eat it all but nevertheless it was great.

    We love this place, and often plan our drive to Georgia around a stop at this restaurant. As good as Southern seafood gets, do not miss the "dinner grits," a lighter, soufflé-like take on classic cheese-grit casserole. Impeccable dining room, excellent staff. [07.15.2012 Update] Just dropped in a again about a year and a half later, and everything is still great. My Wife had the catfish, I had the shrimp and grits (again). Both were about as good as southern cooking get. As an added treat, I had the clam chowder, it was quite good as well. An absolute jewel of a restaurant just of I-95. Bonus Tip: The Best Western across the parking lot is great place to stay while traveling, which also let me indulge in a few cocktails while I was at the Captain's Quarter's and then just walk back to my room.

    Awesome food on par with Downtown Charleston, SC. Very friendly atmosphere . Out of character with the usual interstate fare.

    Never made it inside to eat in the restaurant...staying at Hampton Inn across the street. Staff there told us no reservations needed. I admit it was Valentine's Day but we had been travelling all day. So we enter the restaurant. There were 4 people standing around the front desk and one woman asked if we had reservations. I said no and before I could tell her what the Hampton Inn told me, she told me "I was out of luck...sorry." No effort made to say if there's a cancellation, we'll call you...no nothing. It was their loss. Note to owners: might want to counsel staff on how to be gracious towards customers.

    We went here open the recommendation of the Hampton Inn for good steaks. White tablecloths and napkins were appreciated, even though the dress was casual, and the restaurant was pretty full. Evidently primarily known for its seafood, I was very pleasantly surprised. We arrived at 8:55, and we're told they would have to ,check with the kitchen," because they close at 9 pm. Fortunately, we were seated. The waitress promptly took our drink orders, and returned very quickly with drinks and took our food order. My husband chose the shrimp scampi,and I asked the waitress which was better, the rib eye, or NY strip. She recommended the ribeye, and I ordered it medium rare. I chose the house merlot, and my husband a Stella beer. I chose the alternate house salad with pecans and blue cheese crumbles, while my husband chose the regular house salad. Both salads arrived in record time, and were served with a small loaf of delicious brown bread. I added the sautéed mushrooms to my order. The entrees arrived very quickly, And both were delicious. The ten shrimp were large,and served over angel hair pasta. My steak was cooked perfectly, and I had it served with the baked sweet potato, which was very good. A large serving of mushrooms followed before I had eaten two bites of my steak. We were satisfied, but not overly stuffed, and declined the dessert, although the waitress recommended the orange cake. We would definitely eat there again if we stay in Santee!

    I have rather mixed thoughts about this restaurant. The decor is old and out dated the carpet is past due for being replaced with a wood planking floor covering. The "white" in the pattern is closer to old asphalt gray. A table near us had a rubber mat under it but still didn't hide all of the holes in the carpet (one of which was 6"diameter) down to the backing. There were 4 specials on the board but I didn't see the prices. Our waitress explained the special but had to leave to get the price of the lobster dinner special my wife wanted. I decided to get the 3 item special shrimp, scallops and choice of fish, mahi, grouper, or salmon. I chose the mahi. Our waitress, Cindy, was attentive and made sure we had everything we wanted but she seemed to be confused by the menu. I asked her if the mahi was grilled and she said yes. It came to the table baked. That was ok and I ate and enjoyed it but I would have preferred grilled. Now to the food. The included salad was typical iceberg lettuce, grated carrot, onion and tomato. Nothing special there. The lobster was cooked very nicely and my wife enjoyed it. My place contained a nice portion of mahi, 4 medium sized shrimp, and three medium scallops. They all had a sprinkle of paprika and obviously baked/broiled. The shrimp were slightly over cooked but was ok. The mahi was firm and cooked to well done and was very nice. The 3 scallops stole the show. Perfectly cooked tender and moist. We both had baked potatoes which were mid sized and were not over done like I've had at other restaurants. I would go back again if we were in the area but hope they take out that dirty old carpet before then.

    This place may be a little out dated on their decor but it has the best shrimp and grits this Texas girl has ever ate! I've ate the same dish in New Orleans and in Texas but none compare to Captains Quarter!

    The food was very good. A properly cooked prime rib with shrimp that aren't overdone is quite a commodity. In Santee South Carolina it's an absolute rarity. The best part of it was the service. My girlfriend doesn't eat meat and substitutions weren't a problem. Our server Kristen was second to none. She managed to make 14 hours on the road on Christmas eve unforgettable. I'll definitely be back.

    I had two good meals in a row here. It's not locavore or trendy but the food is tasty and well-prepared. It's not fast, but the people are nice and accommodating; they were very sweet to my four year old granddaughter, fixing her some spaghetti fast so the rest of us could look at the menu and talk in leisure. A pleasant and popular place to stop. Locally owned.
