Darla's Seafood — Restaurant in Portsmouth

I ordered a dozen of steamed crabs on April 12, that took about 20 minutes to get. When I ate the claw off the 1st crab, it didn't taste fresh as crabs usually do, when you place your order upon arrival. So, I tried the crab itself, it also taste like they were day old crabs they refused to throw away and decided to freeze them to sell the next day. After testing the 2nd crab, decided to take them back for a refund, since the policy was 24 hrs. I have bought plenty of crabs in my lifetime to know the difference, other crab places, you have to wait about 30 minutes or more for them to cook upon ordering.

The young girl that I returned them to, knew they were not fresh when I mentioned the reason for my return. She look guilty and said that she was sorry and refunded my money. I was telling my sister about it and she told me her friends ordered fish dinners, the fish was not cooked thoroughly. It was frozen fish they cooked, instead of fresh fish. If you are going to put signs up and advertise fresh seafood, it should be cooked fresh upon ordering...

It tasted old and fried so hard I could barely chew it, the bread was even hard. The collard greens was delicious. I’ll never send anyone there again. The few pieces I did eat made my...

Horrible Place, The fry cook is very unprofessional. He was yelling at the female order taker. He was verbally abusing her the entire time I was there. I gave my order and they never made it. Then they said they started making it and then I said I would cancel it , they made a huge deal if I did that so I told them I'll wait. As I waited an entire 1 hour I found out once again the order wasn't even cooked. After all of that finally it only took him 15 minutes to make my food. I will Never return to that...
