What Is the Captain D's Seafood Gumbo - Regular?
A hearty bowl of Southern seafood gumbo over rice. As part of the Captain D's what's new & specials lineup, it's prepared fresh to order and served the way Captain D's has done it since 1969. At $5.19, it sits comfortably in the chain's value-focused range.
Nutritionally, the Seafood Gumbo - Regular comes in at 190 calories with 11g of protein and 7g of total fat — a lighter, lean choice. If you're tracking your day, that's about 10% of a 2,000-calorie reference before any sides or sauces. Sodium lands at 860mg, which is worth keeping in mind if you're watching salt.
It pairs naturally with classic Captain D's sides — golden fries, creamy mac & cheese, sweet corn or Southern green beans — and a side of hush puppies. For a lighter plate, swap fries for steamed broccoli or a plain baked potato.

How to Make It a Meal
On its own, the Seafood Gumbo - Regular is a great light bite or add-on. To round it into a complete Captain D's meal, most diners pair it with two sides and hush puppies. For the classic Southern experience, reach for the mac & cheese, fried okra, or coleslaw; for something lighter, the steamed broccoli, green beans or a plain baked potato keep calories in check. A sweet tea or lemonade is the traditional drink, though unsweetened tea is the lower-sugar choice.
If you're ordering for value, check whether a combo plate that includes this item costs less than buying it à la carte with separate sides — at Captain D's, the bundled plates usually win. And if you're feeding a group, the family meals deliver the best price per person.
