Customer Reviews
What a fantastic little joint! We got the blue crab stuffed ravioli and grilled salmon, sushi rice bowl! It did not disappoint!!! We will be making this establishment a must stop when we visit Hatteras Island! Maggie the bar tender recommended the tropical margarita with pineapple and watermelon. It was light and refreshing! Very tasty!
The Cape Hatteras Motel suggested this restaurant and boy what a great idea! We had no wait (wasn't during high season) on a Friday around 6. Jordan was our waiter and he was wonderful - very knowledgeable about their restaurant and food and also the area. We had the catch of the day with cucumber salad and mac and cheese. And I had the cod fish, shrimp and crab cake. The freshest seafood we've had in a long time. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend.
We popped in for some very late lunch (it was around five, but it’s our anniversary so we’re on our own schedule) and had the black drum cotd and peel and eat shrimp. Beets and cucumber salad were sides for the catch. Everything was delicious. Our bartender took amazing care of us and we really just enjoyed everything about the experience. They had folks at the bar (my favorite place to eat) and parties from two to much larger. They’ve got it going on, great food, great vibes. Definitely recommend.
We came here on an off-season trip down to OBX and we are so glad we did. We sat at the bar and the atmosphere was pure local with folks enjoying their beverages and food and chatting loudly across the bar and ragging on each other and in general laughing and having a wonderful time. We loved it but if you want a bit quieter experience there are lots of options in the dining room as well. Bartender was attentive and polite and they had seasonal creative cocktails as well as a great selection of local brews! It was burger night with good-looking reasonable options that included fish, crab and chicken burgers. I had the crab cake and a special blue crab ravioli- both weren’t del-loaded with crab. My husband had the calamari and it was a bit greasy but good. Stop in! You will not be disapp
As OBX people since the 1980's we were excited to try this newer restaurant in the neighborhood. The disappointing portion quality control and the paralysis of the serving staff to address concerns, brought about an interaction with the manager that made the root of both issues very clear. Great leadership in hospitality empowers staff and values the experience of the customer. Neither were present during our experience. Based on the menu, we selected this restaurant for our special night out. We were greeted well and seated quickly. Our server was friendly and prompt, and advised our group of 7 very well as we made selections. Our starters and mains came out promptly and we were delighted as we started sampling the flavors. Almost all of the food was well prepared, and flavor
