Captain Chuck-A-Muck’s sits on Marina Road in Rescue, Virginia, along the James River in Isle of Wight County, and the setting alone is worth the drive: a waterfront seafood shack where the boats come in and the fish on your plate reflects whatever was fresh that morning. It appeared in Season 4, Episode 4 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Where the Locals Eat,” which aired August 4, 2008, as a Virginia waterfront stop where the local fishing community eats alongside the tourists who discovered it. The restaurant serves Virginia seafood with the kind of no-nonsense preparation that lets the crab and fish speak without getting in the way.
