The food was very good! The service wa excellent as well. It was a college football game day when I end so it wasn't packed. You order at the front and then you'll be seated. I definitely recommend this restaurant. I made the drive out to try it because it was recommended from a coworker and definitely worth the drive.

Food was amazing! Had grilled oysters as an appetizer and they were delicious! Ordered catfish and sweet potato fries, with hushpuppies and everything was hot, crispy and fresh. Best seafood we’ve had in a long time. Husband had stuffed mahi mahi and gouda grits which also were fabulous! Slightly cold inside the restaurant but granted its 21 degrees outside. Very pleased! And the waitress was super nice!

The shrimp tacos at The Wharf were outstanding—juicy, well-seasoned shrimp, fresh toppings, and a great balance of flavors. You can really taste the quality. A must-try if you’re eating here.

My wife and I tried the Wharf at their new location at the Moody/Leeds exit and they did not disappoint. We had the shrimp Cobb salad and the Wharf platter and it was delicious. The restaurant was very clean, with a full bar and TV’s located through the dining area. The staff was very friendly and the service was excellent. My former job allowed me to eat at restaurants throughout the south from Texas to South Carolina and I would consider the Wharf in my top five!! I highly recommend your giving them a try, you will not be disappointed.

The blackened mahi mahi is amazing and the collard greens and hush puppies were the best. The food was hot and the employees were all so polite, I'll definitely be back and you can get the lunch special it's a smaller portion but plenty of food for me and the price is very reasonable, there were three hush puppies but I couldn't wait, lol

Richard was our table waiter, made sure that our drinks stayed full and that we were satisfied with everything that we ordered. Sarah was very kind and knowledgeable in her suggestions for what was good on the menu. We had a variety of food on our plate and everything was cooked perfection, seasoned very well, freshly cooked, and tasted amazing. Can't wait to come back especially when the scallops are back on the menu

Never heard of the place but husband loves seafood so we gave it a shot. I got gumbo, kid got corn dogs, hubby had shrimp. All of it was good, but while there and seeing other people's food go by, next time we will try a bit more variety. Everything looked great.
