I most say the food here is off the chain. It has never been a time I order from there ,and said it was nasty. But however the service sucks. It takes at least a hour for anything to be ready. That is the core to any food place the speed ,and customer service. I still order from here just a hour in advance so that it will be ready when I get there ,because that is just how much I love the food ! So if you go order in advance ,and don't forget a cup of Lemonade because it is the best!!!

Freshwater
Smells incredible in here they're getting ready for their lunch buffet very very helpful young lady Olivia haven't eaten here yet the buffet is not quite ready but I would definitely come and give this a shot very fresh live crabs smells fantastic did I say that LOL
Loved the food!! The chef came out and greeted us. They grill or fry. The food was amazing!! They are in the process of renovations so the restaurant is not the prettiest but the food and people make me want to go back soon!!
The food was simply outstanding. Service with a smile. Definitely going back soon! Fish was as fresh as could be with a family recipe for coleslaw that was just delicious.
Food was delicious...get the deviled crab for sure. Flounder and hush puppies were excellent. Everyone was very welcoming and even though it was close to closing, they cooked us up some hot plates. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.
Slow Service, yet ever so amazing food! Everytime I come back home to visit family, this is always a first stop for me. Definitely worth the try, if you have the time. If it's your first time, make time!
They were the bomb, food was off the chain, Imperial seafood wow
Great buffet and dinner plates to go and fresh fish to take home to cook yourself
Great friendly place to eat. Food is delicious and it's a buffet style eatery. Home cooked southern food.
Very good freshly cooked fish, shrimp, osters. ,ect .
I liked the sausage a lot. I should have gotten a side of the sauce but I feel like I wanted more sausage and maybe next time I'll get a pan of just sausage and shrimp. Either way, it was great
Prices are high. They didn't have any of the fish we were looking for.
This was so good. Had the white fish, grits and hush puppies. South Carolina and Conway has a gem.
Great place to eat! the seafood was fresh and good.
Family owned and operated!! Love the Family and the food is good too!!
The Owner was very accommodating with preparing my order. Also the gentleman who was prepping the fish has a nice personality suited for public customer service.
The food was GREAT and the price was GREAT as well.
This is not my first time going and as always, the food was excellent!!
Took the stress off of having to prepare and cook. All you have to do is order and pick up!! Fair prices and food cooked with love!!!
Don't let the small plain exterior deter you. Hands down some of the best simple southern seafood I have eaten. We did not wait long at all for food ,was delicious and fresh. Owner took time to talk to us, everyone was friendly. Will plan to catch it on our way back home, definitely a hidden food gem
Great service and great food! Family is everything to them. And they love all like family. And food is YUM
Wonderful!! They had my CRABS!! 4 hour drive for them
Everything is delicious and fresh. The staff is friendly and kind. We can't wait to go back!
They were the most courteous people I could find. Products were phenomenal. I am not from the area but I would suggest them to everyone.
If you crave Maryland style steamed crabs, this is the place. You will think you ordered them in Dundalk. They are that good. Best tasting I ve ever had down here and the best prices by far.
Friendly faces, great service and the food was delicious
Very good food Nice environment
Excellent taste as well as a great presentation. It was worth the wait.
I ordered a crab boil to go. I smelt so good I couldn't wait to get home... It was amazing
We were on vacation and asked a local, "where we could get good fish?" We didn't realize it was almost closing time but they welcomed us. They started cooking fresh food putting it on the bar just for us. How accommodating could they be, you might ask! The fresh food was awesome AND they allowed us to take a picture with a sign featuring me sons school motto, "EXCELLENCE IS THE EXPECTATION"!! FRESHWATER FISH COMPANY, we will see you in the fall!!
The food was good and hot , it's just an odor in there that's very unpleasant.
Late on Saturday and decided to try Freshwater Fish. I had garlic crabs. So good. Messy but worth every finger lick and napkin. . Husband had fried shrimp. A little to much breading and grease for him.
We had a wonderful dinner. There was a little bit of a wait because the owner cooked our food fresh. It was delicious. The catfish, crabcakes, hushpuppies and coleslaw were top notch. The hamburgers were so good and made with fresh, hand pattied beef. The owner came to our table and introduced himself. He was so nice and pleasant. He took the time to come and let us know that our wait was due to him making fresh crab cakes for us. They were well worth the wait. I highly recommend a visit to the freshwater fish company.
All they had was whiting, and the buffet was slow to fill. The food was good and reasonable price.
Not very satisfying tonight.. Used to be very good service and plentiful of food but tonight was very poorly....
Cleaning the fish in front of the restaurant...really
Good Food, I highly recommend if you came this way stop and enjoy some real food.
Great Food!!! Great family environment!!!!
This restaurant has great food made to order, impeccable service, and the best Sunday buffet in the county. You can't rush perfection, and that's exactly what they're serving here ay Fresh Water Fish Co. They're catfish stew is a must.
Best spot dinners at the beach, Hands down!! Fish hand selected and food cooked fresh to order...Awesome!!!
This place is so good I hate I'm missing eating there today
Food was good service was awesome nice people but took long to get our meal def. Will visit again
This is the plate I was given. It looks like someone ate from my plate before they sold it to me. Very disappointed. My mother had whiting fish but it was not fresh fish. It was clearly frozen fish. When my Aunt expressed her disappointment with the owner she told her "No one ever complained about our food." She didn't even try to rectify the problem. They also were out of crabs, catfish, sodas, etc at 7 pm but they closed at 9 pm. Not the southern hospitality I expected. The prices of the food do not reflect the quality or quantity of food. The pictures on the website are very deceiving.
Nice and friendly service fresh seafood cook to order a little slow but well worth the wait affordable prices good menu and nice buffet on Wednesday and Sunday
Down south kitchen type feel. The food is always fresh off the stove, and the wait is very minimum (well depending on what you order, but its worth the wait). The hospitality of the staff is very warm and welcoming. If you're in the area and don't want that big expensive seafood restaurant chaos, I recommend Fresh Water!
Food was great and fresh! Best slaw I have had in a while. Its all cooked to order and worth the wait.
Food was excellent. Took a little bit to get but well worth the wait.
Food was hot fresh and delicious! Staff was friendly. The wait time was an hour but well worth it. I would highly recommend you calling in your order then picking it up. I will definitely be back.
Nothing better! Wonderful Absolutely awesome! Fresh fish and awesome chef!
I have ordered food from here many times and never been dissatisfied!
The food that was available was okay, just been out on the line too long. They were out of certain things, like cornbread and hushpuppies and didn't have more ready to replenish.
If you want fresh seafood cooked with some love, then this is the place for you! Friendly folk too.
Food was delicious as always!!!! Wait is always way tooo long..
Slow service great food. Call in your order 2hrs in advance. Took them 2hrs to prepare 3 large seafood platters an 1 shrimp and oyster platter.
Was craving crab so decided to try this place. DELICIOUS. I highly recommend this place. Definitely will be eating here a lot
This Food Was Great ,But The Only REASON Why Not 5 Stars Because Of The Lenght Of Time ! Lady Said It Would Be 45 Mins But Ended Up Being Almost 2 Hours. Other Than That Food Was Great !
