Great crab soup , scallops were on point, great fish (they will even cook your catch). Very big with interesting decor. Amazing qui slit food with great service!
Such a gem! A beautiful garden w an amazing view over the sound and the most amazing sunset !!! The seafood & veggies (obviously) are very fresh. There are NO hush puppies . Skip the crab dip .
Andy Griffith (Actor/Legend) was a regular customer and friend here for many years. He enjoyed his privacy and dined privately in the back room.
I have never had a bad meal here - everything is great. Beautiful view as well .
Love this place! Love their calamari , tilefish and shrimp in herb butter , & seafood platter . Great local seafood ! Great bar atmosphere too.
Beautiful views , delicious food, but the service could use an upgrade. A little under qualified.
Make sure Cody serves you, he is really attentive and knew a lot about the menu. Amazing food, great view and awesome staff .
Everything is local and fresh. Great food. Server has been amazing - even with the little kiddies.
Go at night. Brunch menu consists of five things but they ran out of turkey . On top of that the catch of the day is the same as anothet menu item. Not much to choose from.
It's almost that time of year....SOFTCRABS are a coming to your plate! This is our first crab of the season! Read more
Food was great. We sat at the bar , great drink specials and entree portions are big enough for two.
Best she crab soup in OBX! Or try the Asian shrimp - it's spicy fried shrimp and doesn't really go too Asian.
Their burger comes with just cheese and they put about as much time into it as McDonald's. Burger was sitting on the top "bun " making it soggy and the bottom one is hard as a rock.
Get the crab dip !! It's really good! It was gone in a minute we ate it so fast!
Try the Asian shrimp as an appetizer . Blackened Trout was amazing!
The view , the Hatteras Chowder and so much more.
Really enjoyed the broiled seafood platter - the food was so fresh
The fish trio with salsas was amazing! Don't miss the proscuitto wrapped scallops with pepper jelly !
Excellent food, atmosphere, and service! Everything is fresh and local.
Come on Sunday nights for tapas the bartender Vicki is the best on the beach
the crab stuffed shrimp is amazing! Love the Hoptober draft...husband got fish grill and it was fabulous as well !
Parmesan crusted chicken is amazing, she-crab soup is great as well !!
Food and service was great. First open night of the new year.
