HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I am always looking for a restaurant that gives a diner feel where "real" home cooked style food is served. Seahorse delivered 100%! The prices are also fantastic. My husband had the Friday special shrimp plate with 2 sides. I had the 2 piece white meat fried chicken with 2 sides and an iced tea. We also purchased 6 slices of cake and a banana pudding. Our bill was only $66!
My chicken was perfectly seasoned and fried crispy. It arrived piping hot! My sides of cabbage and mac-and-cheese were good as well. Most places serve flavorless mac-and-cheese that is creamy but watery and flavorless. I get the feeling Seahorse mac-and-cheese was baked, it was rich, thick and flavorful. The cabbage was perfect, tender but not mushy, and also well seasoned. I don't usually order sweet tea when I go to restaurants but I was in the mood for it today so I did and it was really good. It wasn't watered down and wasn't too sweet, it was just right.
My husband loved his shrimp, fried okra, and steak fries.
We got alot of cake but have only tried a few. The texture of the cakes were great in my opinion. I liked the coconut but feel like most of the coconut flavor was coming from the icing and not the cake. I'm not a fan of the pineapple cake but it may have been that the filling and icing was too cold. I'm going to give it another try when it's not straight out of the fridge cold. My husband loved the death by chocolate cake. He especially loved the mini chocolate chips on the icing.
The service was quick and friendly although I could tell they were super busy and were feeling it. All the tables in the main room were full when we arrived and the side rooms started to quickly fill up later. The waitresses kept up with everything and were constantly going from table to table and in and out the kitchen! Please tip these ladies (and gentlemen if there are some) well because they definitely earn it!
10/10 highly recommend if you want a home cooked meal that doesn't break the bank or skimp on portion size.

I was told by a coworker how good this place was, so I wanted to try it out for a while now.
We got there at 8 and hoped it wasn't too late (they closed at 9 and some places quit seating at certain times), we were seated, no problem.
The food was really good. The fish and shrimp were both well cooked and good tasting.
The waitress was very nice and kept checking on us.
The cakes are also very good. You get a large slice, and they have a big selection of cakes.
Also the prices are cheaper than other restaurants if the same type.

I was visiting in the area. I was so excited about meeting my spiritual mom for lunch. She and I enjoyed our meal. I gotta say this..... that banana pudding cake...I love it. The next time I'm visiting I'm getting cake again. The service was wonderful and the environment was pleasant. They had many options to choose from on the menu. We both got the tenderloin meal. I look forward to visiting in the future.

The food was absolutely amazing. You must save room for dessert 🎂 because the cakes are divine. Can't wait to visit there again. We got the shrimp and catfish and a combo of fried chicken and pork tenderloin and lemon cake for dessert. Wonderful!!
