Good Afternoon Seafood Aficionados:

       We want to invite all of you to our  4th Annual Seaview Crab Company Customer Appreciation Party.  The party will be here in Wilmington at our retail store (6458 Carolina Beach Road) next Sunday (October 28th) We will have plenty of seafood, music, and good company.  We started this event 4 years ago to show our gratitude to the loyal customers who support us throughout the year.  Come down and see us, its only 2.5 hours down, and the fall weather and fishing is great.  (See the picture below)

    This weekend the wait is over and we will have NC In-Shell oysters available for your roasts and dinners this weekend.  We sell our oysters by the 1/2 peck, Peck, 1/2 bushel, and Bushel.  (If you want a bushel or more, its definitely good to pre-order).  Its important to know that we always leave our Oysters in the mud because that is the best way for oysters to travel and stay fresh.  In order to prepare your oysters to be cooked, it is best to spread them out on a flat clean surface and spray the mud off with a garden hose.  It will take a few minutes, but when you get that clean, hot salty oyster off the grill you won't be disappointed!

If you want to wait till it gets a little colder for Oysters, we have plenty of other options for your culinary creations this weekend.  We will have plenty of Flounder, Scottish Salmon, Sheepshead, Live Blue Crabs, and Much more!  See our highlighted items, specials, and full menu below. 

We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

This fish is one of our favorites.  Sheepshead have buck teeth that are made for chomping on small crabs, clams, and oysters.  They are ugly, but with a diet like that, you can imagine how delicious these fish taste.  It is a simple chunky white meat that is very versatile.  We will have fillets and whole fish available this week.  If you've not tried Sheepshead before, you will not be disappointed!
