Captain Jack's Seafood Buffet, Seafood buffet restaurant in North Myrtle Beach, United States.
Captain Jack's Seafood Buffet is a self-serve seafood restaurant in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where guests move through stations offering crab legs, fresh oysters, fried shrimp, and fish preparations. The spread also covers chargrilled ribeye steaks, green lip mussels, and a full dessert section.
The restaurant opened in 2012 under Chef Jimmy Gilberto and quickly became a regular stop for people visiting the area. Its early years lined up with a period of growth for North Myrtle Beach as a destination.
The restaurant draws from Lowcountry cooking traditions rooted in South Carolina, where seafood has long been central to local food culture. Dishes like She Crab Soup are a direct connection to how people along this coast have cooked for generations.
The buffet runs only on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so planning ahead is helpful, especially during busy beach seasons. Groups traveling together may want to check in advance about options for larger parties.
The restaurant runs separate hot and cold bars, so guests can move between raw and cooked options without crossing the same service line twice. This layout gives visitors more freedom to build their meal at their own pace.
