Hands down, this is one of my favorite seafood spots to attend. Everyone that works there is in good spirits and very pleasant to be around!! The food is always delicious and the portions are well worth every penny spent !!

Our server was super sweet and attentive. Everything we had was delicious. We tried the crab cake, fried flounder, ahi tuna, stuffed scallops, fried shrimp, fries, hush puppies, and green beans. Everything came out quickly, and we had plenty left to bring home.

Love, Love, Love Backfins! Can't beat the delicious seafood and the friendly service. Plenty of parking. Try their crab legs and crab cakes! Best in town. We highly recommend to all our friends and family.

Class were not very good. Flounder was fried hard but tastey. Menu doesn't show prices so a little shocked for a bill of $150 for just my wife and I. The service was very good and the establishment was nice.

Fabulous crab legs, shrimp and fish and oysters that are not fried. The fried oysters are usually overly done and taste burntParking: Parking close fills quickly

One of the best seafood options in the area. Blue crab when available is wonderful. Generous portions at reasonable prices. Service was a little slow on most recent visit, but still a very satisfying dinning experience.

Enjoyed the previous location as it gave you the hidden treasure vibe. I've been to this location too many times to count since they've moved, and they are consistent. Great food. Great service. Inviting atmosphere.
