Customer Reviews
As a newbie to the area I had to sit waterfront and gobble down some fresh seafood. So when I ran across this little hole in the intercoastal I couldn't pass it up. Great music, great atmosphere, great beer selection and fantastic food. Put me down as a regular because I'll definitely be going back.
New Fave! Fish was fresh and delicious. We had the daily special which was snapper and shrimp, grilled Pasta salad was also great. Portions were generous
I’m a foodie, (and have worked service industry all my adult life) from snooty cuisine to comfort food, there’s nothing I won’t and haven’t tried… this place is excellent! Laid back atmosphere with perfectly prepared fresh seafood! We tried some of everything it was all perfectly executed- with love (passion & attention to detail)! Portion sizes were generous. Pricing was on point. I saw a few neg reviews for portion size but as you can see from pics they were not small! I’m sure the places around it are delish but if I lived here this would be my go to & these customers are the peeps I’d choose to hang with- love the locals!
Me and a friend went here yesterday and tried several things since it was our first time. The person that rang us up and the guy making the food were both extremely nice, the atmosphere and the weather were great for sitting outside. They had a lot of options and variety of food, drinks and desserts. The shrimp burger was great.

I ordered a sea bass dinner with fries and slaw, she asked me if I wanted to add shrimp for only $4 more and I said, yes. I'm glad I did because as you can see from the picture the sea bass were 2 very small, thin pieces of fish about 1.5 inches by 2.5 inches long. I wo
Named for a gourd, famous for the seafood.” Calabash, NC got its name from the humble drinking gourd, but you come here for the fried shrimp, the salty breeze, and maybe a grackle or two throwing shade from the dock. This Waterfront Seafood Shack has all the laid-back Calabash charm—gift shop and grab-n-go in one building, cookhouse in the other, with an open hallway in between where you can catch the sea air and watch boats slip into the inlet. We sat under tiki umbrellas with cold IPAs, the locals as friendly as the breeze. Rain or shine, it’s worth the stop just for the atmosphere.
