About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Neighborhood gem
Great for outdoor dining

Randy and Brian Pack of Pack Brothers Hospitality had been looking for a place to expand their operations since 2012 after their most recent expansion at their family restaurant, hotel and marina, Smithfield Station. They looked in many places from Charleston, SC to Jamestown, VA to Manteo, NC. All of the places viewed had a fault or two that kept the brothers from diving in. In the winter of 2018, Surry County, never before on the radar, approached the brothers about taking over The Surry Seafood Co. and they were all ears. Here was a property close enough to their home that offers hotel rooms, a marina, and a great seafood restaurant! On May 1, 2018 Pack Brothers Hospitality took over operations and after a bit of revamping opened its doors to the residents and visitors of Surry County.

This is a very casual place on the James River. We were a little concerned driving up, because it's tucked back from the main road and not impressive when you arrive, but, oh boy, the service was great, the food was great, my lemon drop martini was great, and the view was lovely. We wanted a casual vibe and good food plus a water view. The view is really more like "low country salt marsh". The tide was in, the view was so peaceful and lovely, and it was the icing on the cake. I encourage you to try Surry's.
The Surry Seafood CoResponded on May 11, 2026
We are delighted to hear you enjoyed not only the service and food but also your lemon drop martini while soaking in the peaceful view of the salt marsh. Wonderful to know our casual vibe was exactly what you were looking for. Thank you for encouraging others to give us a try, Mark; we look forward to welcoming you back soon! Yours in hospitality, The Surry Seafood Co.

Have been to Surry Seafood many times since it opened. Made a dinner reservation for 6:00PM - when arrived the wait was 45 - 60 minutes. There were more than 25 people waiting, some of which had 5:00 & 5:30 reservations. Front of house staff were still taking walk ins and adding those folks' names to a list being maintained. Basically, it was walk in as usual. We waited 55 minutes past our 6:00 reservation time. Food and service was not usual quality; hush puppy was not cooked through for example. I was disappointed & let down this time.
The Surry Seafood CoResponded on February 18, 2026
Hi Mike, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're truly sorry to hear about the long wait and that we didn't deliver our usual quality of food and service during your visit. It's disheartening to know that the hush puppy was undercooked. Your feedback is vital in helping us improve, so please reach out at cheryl.mcclelland[at]surryseafoodco. com with more details on your experience. We genuinely appreciate your understanding, and hope to resolve this moving forward.

We really enjoyed this restaurant and will definitely try it again. Unfortunately, they had people call out on Valentines Day which made the wait list a bit longer with reservations. The meal was great. While we were waiting, the host staff was helpful and once seated, we enjoyed the service.

We had reservations for 5:30 (along with several others). We weren’t seated until 7:00 p.m.! They were short staffed and didn’t clear the tables in a timely fashion to allow people to be seated. I was physically ill from waiting so long to eat. People without reservations were allowed to sit at the bar while people with reservations had to wait. It was very unorganized and ruined my Valentine’s dinner. The kitchen and wait staff did an incredible job of trying to keep it together.
The Surry Seafood CoResponded on February 23, 2026
Hi Kristene, we're truly sorry to hear about the long wait you experienced during what should have been a special Valentine’s dinner. Your feedback about the organization and service is invaluable to us as we continuously strive for improvement. Please reach out at cheryl.mcclelland[at]surryseafoodco. com so we can better understand your experience and work towards making improvements in these areas. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to hear from you soon.

The only issue was too long a wait for a table especially after having a confirmed reservation. It seemed that they either had way overbooked or were expecting people to eat in 10 minutes and dash out the door. Once seated all was good. The food was excellent. Onion rings were room temperature. Great seats were a nice view. Will definitely be back but we’ll be expecting a shorter wait time.
The Surry Seafood CoResponded on February 23, 2026
Thanks for your feedback, Timothy! We're encouraged to hear that once you were seated, all was good and you enjoyed the excellent food along with the nice view. We apologize for the extended wait after your confirmed reservation, as we understand how frustrating that can be, but we appreciate your understanding and commitment to returning. Yours in hospitality, The Surry Seafood Co.
