Castaways Seafood And Grille - Seabrook

Not Castaways any more. It changed owners and is call ERNIE'S . Has mostly seafood. On the noisy side but food was good. Nice outside seating area..was not open when we were there due to weather. Has a firepit and Deck bar. Awesome views.

1. We have been coming here for the past 5 years. Initially they offered a prime rib with one whole lobster for $37.00. Now with Inflation, fair enough I understand. The food had always been pretty good.2. We went back this year like we always do and I’m sorry to say the food was absolutely terrible. The steamers seemed like they had been undercooked and left out. My wife nearly vomited when we left. We didn’t finish them. My $40.00 seafood Alfredo tasted stale, particularly the lobster. The crabmeat in my wife’s lobster ravioli also tasted stale. Overall it was $120 for two people and the food was absolutely terrible. Just talking about the meal after dinner made my wife come close to vomiting. The next morning she felt terribly sick and was worried about food poisoning (even though it wasn’t).The appetizer came out in less than 15 minutes and the entrées came out 10 minutes after that. It was as if the food had been microwaved and they were just trying to rush us out of there. After five years of consistency we will not be going back again. Brown’s Lobster Pound is right down the road and they offer extremely fresh food for the same price. If you’re going to spend that much you deserve a certain quality and Castaways is far from it. Good day to you castaways. Wish I could get my money back.

My husband, stepson, and I came to Rye Beach to celebrate my birthday. I'm happy we started on the beach because had my dining experience here been my first stop I would have gone home with a ruined birthday.I don't know what was more disgusting, the food or the elderly GM clearly flirting with his underage waitresses. The menu doesn't accurately describe what the food really is. You end up paying unreasonable prices for frozen processed food. We will never come here again.

View from deck was beautiful. Seafood Alfredo was plentiful in seafood and very tasty. Lobster pie was overcooked. Baked haddock was sub par. Fried haddock breading was mushy and the portion was the size of a deck of cards. ****** Marys were terrible. Definitely not worth visiting due to the portion sizes and the very poor quality of the meals for the price.

Our usual stop after a day at the beach. Great food, service and view. Have tried different food options and it never disappoints.
