Very clean. Stopped at this place on way home from hunting nearby WMA. It had an amazing view and was pretty busy with bikers and hunters so we didn't feel underdressed. My husband and I were served by a very friendly bartender who made great recommendations (the special Ham biscuits were definitely worth a try!) We also enjoyed local beers and the Surry old fashioned (made with a local whiskey.) Definitely try the Crab Soup - which has the most ridiculously generous chunks of crab meat. Oysters rockerfeller were good- but more cheesy than spinachy. We couldn't finish everything so we took the riblets home.

Food and service was excellent. Great view looking over the water. Bread pudding alone is worth the visit

Excellent stuffed shrimp! Nice, clean restaurant. The hostess was very accommodating, we were tight in time so called our order in ahead of time.

We made a quick stop here to sample some oysters. They were decent but probably not worth driving all the way out here for.The service was a bit slow (we had to go and ask for someone to bring us the check). However, that might've just been because we showed up around 4 PM and there was hardly anyone else in the place.I'd probably be willing to give Surry Seafood Co. another chance. They are supposed to get great sunset views.

This place is remote but so crowded, no one could consider it hidden! It's obviously a well-known place for locals.The wait was an hour for dinner at 7:00 pm on a Saturday evening. We were seated after about 50 minutes. I was VERY impressed with the hostess. She was very patient and professional with the folks who kept pressing her about how much longer they'd have to wait for a table. She's a pro!We were seated and had already perused the menu while we waited so we were ready to order (and hungry) when we sat down. Our server was Mashonda and she was friendly and helpful, despite being incredibly busy.The menu had a very good variety of selections and specials. The food arrived quickly and was cooked perfectly. It was delicious! It's easy to see why it's a local favorite.The two reasons they get 4 stars and not 5 is because the tables are packed too close together. That meant we could hear every conversation around us as if we were all sitting at the same table. The other reason is because there are no bussers to clean the tables. The servers do it and they're already run ragged. They really don't have the time to offer good service AND bus tables. Management should really consider hiring bussers. No one likes to see so many dirty tables around. I'd go back but not on a busy Saturday night. The food was worth the trek from Newport News, but I'd prefer to enjoy my dinner in a cleaner and quieter environment.

Our server was fantastic and recommended the special of the day. We don't know what it was called, but it was amazing! We love Surry, sea breeze, relax ambience and seafood, and we're definitely coming back!

I hate to write a 3 star review for this place, as the staff is most definetly that star of the show. Super polite and helpful! Quite a few food issues:#1 Portion Size- Crabcake was a crab "puck."#2 Food Safety- soup was served at room temperature. It was a cream based crab soup, so not bringing it to the correct temp prior to serving can result in not only a disppointed customer, but a sick one as well.#3 It would appear most of the items, especially sides, are just food service grade products not made in house. The onion rings most def came out of a bag.The view is nice and so is the staff, owner's need to work on the kitchen!***Reached out to to the email that was provided below. No reply. Not a big deal, just odd.

We stayed at the Inn above the restaurant. We had flown into Richmond and were driving to Virginia Beach to visit family. We chose to stay at The Surry Seafod Co as the marina and restaurant were half way along the three hour drive. The drive along the south side of the James River was awsome and the view of the turn of the river from the room outstanding.
