We have seen the resterant several times in the past year we have lived here. But for some reason never stopped. And WOW are we glad we did! Good food at a great price! Good Coastal carolina seafood served calabash style. We both had a combo of two seafood and only paid 10 dollars each! Where do you go today... more

Took family from out of town to dinner. Tried to view menu on website prior to going, unable to see menu items. Coupons on website expired nearly 2 years ago. Restaurant would not honor coupon printed that day from the restaurant website. Food is affordable, atmosphere is pleasant, and service friendly. Like the restaurant, but they really need to update... more

The popcorn shrimp were smaller than actual size of popcorn & fried hard & crunchy. Flounder only produced 3 teaspoons of meat, & the meat was watery, like it had been frozen a long time. I do not think it was even legal size. Hushpuppies were very tiny, tasteless, & fried hard. Green beans were in vinegar! Coleslaw was pure... more

My wife and I decided to give Flunders one more try---huge mistake!!!! Lousy service and even more lousy seafood. Since when did frozen flounder become "fresh" flounder? My wife was born and raised on the coast here and knows her seafood and this wasn't it!! And the waitress--my lands was that girl ever rude and full of attitude. Possibly the... more

Have eaten here several times when we visit New Bern, absolutely love this place. Very generous portions and tastes good. The prices are more than reasonable. Sure you can find better Seafood around but at a MUCH higher price. We think this is a nice, friendly place to eat that will not empty your wallet. The flounder is always nice... more

My husband and I have eaten here several times. We had fried oysters which were quite tasty and served in the most generous portions I have ever seen. Prices were very reasonable. We look forward to returning there this year while visiting New Bern. more

My husband and I decided to try Flounders one night when we wanted seafood. This was not a good choice, the food was horrible! All the seafood was fried, greasy, and cold. I suspect it was "fresh" frozen seafood. I would rather go to Andy's and get a shrimp burger (fried shrimp on a bun with cole slaw)! more

My wife ordered "Jumbo" Shrimp" from the menu and received what we would call baby shrimp. She said that they were watery and tasteless. I had baby backed ribs that were just okay. When we mentioned the issue surrounding the shrimp upon paying we were told "the waitress must have hit the wrong button." No consideration or apology offered. This... more

Summed up: crap. My wife and I expected a real seafood eatery with lobster tails, calamari etc. None of that here. The place has the illusion that it might actually be such an establishment that serves a variety of seafood (looking at it from the outside, you'd think you're stepping inside such a place) however, when you sit down, a... more

I've eaten at Flounders several times, and I've been more than satisfied each time. Friendly staff, food is fresh and served promptly, and prices are reasonable. I especially like the flounder "burger" platter - a great sandwich for lunch or dinner. more
