Don's is a good place for decent seafood for a fair price. I got the crab cake dinner and it was fairly good, you could tell it was homemade. The same however could not be said about the sides, the peas were an awful kaki color, salty and you could tell they came right out of the can. Also I... More

Informal dining on the bay with friendly service and reasonably-priced fresh-caught fish, especially the grilled Red Drum, served steaming on a metal plate. Also try the fresh fish sandwiches.

At 7:15 PM I complained and they told me they called me and seated my party. Another group of six jumped up and... More

We always make a point to eat here while in Chincoteague. Most recently, my wife had the flounder dinner and I had drum fish. Portions were oversized and the salad bar is always good with plenty of choices. Service was above average and the prices are reasonable for what you get. We have probably eaten here well over a dozen... More

The fresh oysters and oyster stew were delicious. The fisherman's stew contained way too much thickening, but the flavor was good and was filled with good-sized pieces of fish, shrimp, scallops. The crab balls were tastey, but only come deep-fried. The crab cakes can be ordered fried or broiled. And their caesar salad was bland. Our server was pleasant. However,... More

This is a home-grown restaurant located on main street in Chincoteague. The downstairs features a dining room, while the upper area is a bar where food is also served. We have found that Don's offers great lunch specials, different each day, which many include salad and soup bar. For under $10.00 you can enjoy fresh seafood in a friendly atmosphere.... More

We ate at Don´s on Sunday, April 28. My wife had the fried chicken and I had the seafood platter. The salad bar was small, but I liked what they had on it. My seafood was excellent, especially the oysters and clams. My wife said her fried chicken was only okay, and her mashed potatoes tasted like they were made... More
