Saltbox Seafood Joint

Listen, if you're looking for seafood that feeds the soul, this is your place. I always get the catfish roll, when it's in rotation. The tarter sauce is HOMEMADE! The hush honeys are a blessing! The coleslaw is fresh and tangy. And it never disappoints. My parents tried the flounder for the first time, and raved all night long. They were in love with the fried potatoes..Words can't do the flavors justice. Go and see for yourself! Everything is made to order so plan to arrive accordingly. And the customer service is in point. Big Shout out to the young man with locks at the register. So kind and hospitable.

Absolutely delicious stop for a hearty portion! We loved the mahi, scallops, and especially the hush honeys! Beautiful patio space and plenty of seating indoors. Clean bathrooms with changing tables for mommas!

The oysters were delicious and they loaded up my roll! Next time I would probably get a platter instead of a roll though, the bread got a little soggy and wasn't really necessary to enjoy the oysters

I have been going to this place for years now (just realized I have never reviewed it on Google)! The best place to find seafood in the Triangle, and if you enjoy good seafood you must try this James Bear Award winning chef Ricky Moore’s food! Their sweet tea is great too!

This place is an indefinite 10 in my book. The customer service was great, the cashier, Tavion, made some great recommendations and was super personable and polite. Based on Customer Service alone, I would have come back. I happen to see this restaurant on a TikTok video and decided to try it out with my son after a track meet we were at got rained out. We got the catfish, the fried shrimp, the crispy potatoes, the honey hush puppies, and the collard greens. Everything was delicious. The catfish was delicate and flavorful, the shrimp were crispy and juicy, the honey hush puppies were the perfect combination of sweet and savory, the crispy potatoes were delicious, and I loved the peppers and onions in them, the tartar sauce, and the cocktail sauce were not your run of the mill versions and we’re so flavorful and delicious, and the greens were a home run. The aesthetic for the restaurant was very on team for the type of food they served and it was super clean inside and had a good size parking lot. When we came in there was no wait but quickly thereafter the line piled up and I can see why. If I had to give any criticism I would say I wasn’t a fan of the sweet tea, but wasn’t a big deal for me at all because I was able to grab a fountain drink instead so honestly not an issue for me at all. I’ve already recommended this place to several people and it’s only been about four hours since us being there. The next time we are in Durham, we will definitely be making another stop to try some other menu items and I can’t wait! I really want to thank this restaurant for such great food and service. I feel like the combination is that times a rarity when eating out so it was much appreciated.
