Customer Reviews
First time here and the staff was so friendly. The food was delicious and you have to try the crab and shrimp dip. The hushpuppies were super good too!
Went and sat at the bar, no one was there. Took 20 minutes to get a drink. Waitress was more concerned about her friends that were sitting behind us than waiting on us. We had party of four. I ordered a full peck of oytsers medium. We'll they came out well done and poor kids that were shucking them didn't really know what they were doing. Asked for hush puppies waited 20 minutes for those. This place has lost the love for the food and hospitality. Way too many young kids running this place. Would not recommend to anyone. Better off going to sandpiper seafood in Lagrange. There oysters have always been cooked right. I took care of $200 bill for 4 of us and will never go back. Drinks and food sucked
I ordered a order of fried shrimp to go they were so good but seriously there were 8 shrimp in this order i like to passed out i could not beleive it. I also go chicken tenders and a loaded back potato. The three tenders were for a three year old and please tell me whatbcomes on a loaded baked potatoe. I some cole slaw and a thing of sour cream. I have never hear of putting cole slaw on a bake potato. I was on the outside of goldsboro when i opened this disqusting food. The youg landy was new that was ringing me up and the the other waitress were so nice but will never eat there again. For what i paid for that i could eat twice at pop eyes. Even it there wouldnt had been a lot of food i could delt with it asgood as thise shrimp taste. But after the baked potato deal. Vail house.
The oysters with the collards and cheese were delicious. The lobster roll was great but I felt like it been better with melted cheese added. It isn't big it's a roll and come with 1 side in which I choose mac and cheese. I wasn't a fan of the Mac and cheese it wasn't thick and cheesy it was loose and watery but after salt and pepper it was ok but wish I'd gotten collards or potatoes salad instead. The potatoes salad was good and judging by the collards on the oysters I'm sure alone they be amazing. I will try the next visit. I taste the flounder it was good as well the scallops. The hushpuppies they bring out are amazing. The ahi tuna appetizer is pretty good. I do wish I had ginger to go with it. I didn't ask if they had any but I think that would have given it a little more razzle dazzle
The Vailhouse is a cute local place that serves seafood and straightforward fare. Ordered the grouper bites for an appetizer. They were delicious, though they came out as strip and I was expecting something more nugget shaped. No problem though since they were hot and the grouper was definitely fresh. Also ordered six raw oysters and a half pound of steamed shrimp. The oysters were great, the shrimp were fine. (They had a slightly bitter flavor). To be fair the last restaurant I ate at was Southern Salt in Morehead where I had the best shrimp I've ever had. That's a tough act to follow. Our server was terrible. It took 5 minutes before she came to the table to get a drink order. I had to ask another server to bring us the complimentary hush puppies that every other table received as
