We visited on Saturday and had a great time. Even though we did have a wait they did have a firepit guests could congregate around in the meantime. Once we got seated, service was above and beyond! Matt did an amazing job serving us and also recommended a few items including bacon-wrapped scallops! Definitely look forward to coming back!

We showed up 15 minutes before closing time, yet they were very welcoming and never rushed us. Our server was so gracious and kind to everyone, he really made us feel at home. We started with the okra & calamari appetizers, both delicious. Pictured is my sautéed fresh local shrimp plate (“full portion”, $26 today). Every bite was a fresh and flavorful delight, the perfect way to end a hot day on the island.

The pecan encrusted Drum and bacon wrapped scallops were excellent. Have to eat here while on Ocracoke. Only bummer is that they close Sun-Tuesday and we only got to eat here once.

Great Seafood Platter. Baked Alaska was so good, I forgot to take a pic before we ate it...

★★★★★ 5.0 Carroll Harris · Apr 2019

Really great place for dinner. Fresh ingredients and great flavors. We had calamari, pan seared scallops, and the Tuna that was on special. We sat on the "back porch" amd it was lovely. Service was friendly and quick! I personally can't wait to go back.
