Restaurants in Morehead City

“Best kept secret in Morehead City! From placing the reservation with the host who was phenomenal on the phone and in selecting our table to our server Philip who was absolutely perfect and recommended the best options! Ginger Mojito is the way to go! And you can’t leave without the shrimp and grits and pimento!!! Yummmm! We will def be back!”

“Loved this place! The food was excellent. Service was great. Decor was adorable. Had a line but we got in pretty fast and our food came out fast! We will be back.”

“Met friends for lunch; it was a great choice. I had the barbecue burger with Cole slaw. I was happy to find they offered gluten free buns!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options available”

“Country cooking, excellent selection of sides and veggies, reasonable sized portions and modest prices. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal here. Simple down home cooking done right. Excellent steaks and fried seafood as well. You won’t go wrong.”

“First time dining here even though I am a local. First of all my server my outstanding. Dine here tonight. The Food was amazing Oyster appetizers were great..my steak was awesome . Hibiscus Martini was so good..I will be back Thank you for such a great dining experience. I'm only sorry I can't remember my servers name because he was outstanding.”

“Truly a superior dining experience. VERY generous portions of delicious and deliberately made drinks and entrees; even the free salsa included with chips at the beginning of your meal was impressive. Friendly staff and festive interior as well.A must-go if you are in the area and even slightly open to the idea of having Mexican food. Hands down the best food I had in my vacation. Its rare that I write such a glowing review but I was honestly shocked at the experience, especially considering lackluster alternative offerings in the area.”

“Fun spot for craft cocktails near the Morehead City waterfront. We took our drinks outside and enjoyed the view on a fine spring evening. They have wine and beer (bottles, cans) but the cocktails are the draw.”

“This place is amazing, The pizza the atmosphere I've never had a bad moment or experience here, They are a little expensive but are very much worth it. I will miss this place when I head off To idaho.”

“definitely my new favorite breakfast spot. It’s a little taste of home for me, being from new jersey i missed the bagel sandwiches i used to get all the time. i definitely recommend this place to everyone”

“we have eaten at Floyd's restaurant a couple of times and the staff is extremely friendly ,but the food is excellent for the money !! I highly recommend Floyd's 1921 Restaurant and Catering to everyone who wants great food and service !!”

“Best fried oysters I've ever had!!”

“THE place to eat in Morehead City! Highly recommend the BBQ, the chicken AND the shrimp. And to top it off, Barry is very welcoming and gracious to every single customer.”

“Our first trip to Catch 109. The service was excellent, the food delicious and the environment energetic. Had the fish tacos, seafood, bisque, and chicken with shrimp skewers. Thursday night is sushi night. We didn't have any, but it looked really good. Kudos to waitress Andrea”

“My husband and I decided to check this place out for breakfast during our visit in Morehead City. So glad we did!! . The breakfast was delicious! Prices were very reasonable. It was fairly busy and wait staff kept the place hopping!!. Busboy was on top of every vacant table and immediately cleaned it. Upon people entering the restaurant, there was always someone looking to provide seating. While we were there a party of eleven came in and within 10 min they were accommodated. Will definitely be back!!”

“By far, the best cheesesteak (with melted cheese whiz) in Eastern NC. Antipasto salads were excellent. I have NEVER had a bad meal from Loretta's!”

“FIVE STARS! FIVE WORDS! AWESOME!”

“Everything is delicious! The butterscotch pie is a must to try! The eclairs are amazing! You need to stop in and give it a taste”

“We needed some Scones for a Tea Party at my church last Saturday . They were very fast and efficient. They gave us plenty of food for a great price. I would recommend them for baking needs or just a generally nice place.”

“Excellent cupcakes! I’ve had Happy Cakes several times & will say it has been consistent each time. Thankful to know that I can enjoy a treat without having to consume food dyes or artificial ingredients or flavors, so thank you Happy Cakes for being so intentional in your ingredients! Nice customer service too! Lemon has to be my all time favorite flavor but everything I’ve had is delicious & so fresh!”

“The waffle cone was the best part of the sweet treat. The ice cream didn’t taste that fresh to me and the key lime pie ice cream taste like it has a ton of sand in it that’s scratchy. Nice and clean establishment but ice cream itself didn’t taste better than Hershey’s or Blue Bell.”

“Went Valentines Night. The special menu was excellent. Service good. Great experience.”

“The Burgers are Excellent!!!”

“At Full Circle celebrating my son’s birthday! This is definitely our favorite restaurant. Everything is perfect! My favorite is the seared scallops, but you can’t go wrong with any choice. Thank you, Cam, and staff!”

“I've been dining at both restaurants for years and enjoyed myself ,the food , and the staff! The food and sides at Morehead have a better flavor, taste better ,and the portions are much bigger. I ve notice that recently on my last couple times that the sides are much better at both restaurants. The mash potatoes in Morehead are so delicious. I wish that was the same case at the emerald isle restaurant. The Cole slaw is the best that I have taste recently. I swear if the food was as good as the sides have been lately I wouldn't eat anywhere else. SNAPPPERZ KEEP IT UP!”

“I absolutely love this place. The bowls are amazing, the atmosphere is casual, fun, and kid/dog friendly. The fruit is always fresh as could be, they make mealtime easy and affordable, and their customer service is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! They also support other local and small businesses”

“They are on summer hours now! 11am - 2am. First time eating at King Mac’s, and boy it didn’t let us down!!! Under new management now and the staff is awesome, food was even better! Can’t wait for a better weather day to sit on the rooftop patio. Already reserved a rooftop table for the Big Rock Tournament?? I wish…”

“Excellent food and service. First time eating there. Will definitely be going again”

“My mom & I tried Dank Burrito for the first time. The cheesesteak burrito tasted amazing. My mom ordered chips & queso. Got told that both of our food was a meal & already included the chips with it. So my mom & I got home realized we got the queso but no chips. We can’t use the queso with no chips.”

“This place is ADORABLE & so fun! My boys won’t stop talking about it. The manager was very helpful, friendly, and hospitable. Chai iced tea w/ chocolate cold foam Lycee slushie with lycee popping bobas & chopped strawberries/mango Honeydew slushie (10/10 recommend) with mango popping bobas & chopped mangos/strawberries Neat hangout area with games & a few arcade games too. I hope this establishment thrives and look forward to regular visits!”

“Wasn't very pleased with the food. We were really let down by the paper thin,8 oz steak with no seasoning at all on it. Mac and cheese and rolls were amazing though. We didn't get a drink refill until about time to walk out the door when she brought the check. Definitely won't be back.”

“Social Q smoked us a Turkey for Thanksgiving last year. It was amazing and super convenient.Yesterday 6 of us went for lunch and goodness gracious was it good. I highly recommend anyone looking for some good BBQ to give them a try.We will be going back.Photo is of the Brisket Grilled Cheese.”

“If you're looking for a great dive bar this is the spot. I use the word dive bar affectionately but the food is amazing and so is the service. This surely is the number 1 dive bar in Morehead City NC. I love this place. The staff is awesome and the patrons are extremely friendly, welcoming, and non judgemental.”

“We’ve been here a number of times and each visit has been wonderful. Food and service are excellent. The ONLY negative I have would be that it is not handicap friendly. No low top tables available. Love the atmosphere and the dining experience overall.”

“Great atmosphere, great cause and amazing coffee!!”

“Awesome! Wedge was incredible, and the pizza is off the chain.”

“Definitely a great place for YA/Adults to chill on the waterfront. Great music and atmosphere. Had the Green Chile Beef tacos and fries w/smoked ketchup which were sooo good.”

“One of the BEST Waffle Houses around, very clean place staff is always friendly, food fresh and made to order, usually not that busy. Easy location right off the Highway, and easy return to to highway to continue your travels with a full belly and a face with smiles for miles.They have a great Blueberry Waffle.Absolutely will return and I highly recommend this location to Others!Parking: Oddly the closest parking to the door Isn't the Handicap spaces, keep that in mind, there is a double door entry, meaning you go through one door and then open another to get it, might need help if alone.Kid-friendliness: Bring your Kids it's the last Diner I know that looks like the 1950's. Bar stool is always fun.”

“The typical Starbucks atmosphere, it doesn’t disappoint with the drinks and breakfasts. The staff is not what I would call friendly or inviting but they did what I asked. The store seemed cleaned and well stocked. It is not in the most convenient of shopping mall corners, be prepared to turn on 2 wheels if you need your caffeine fix.”

“It’s the best!! Super fresh food- always friendly staff...well done!!”

“Great prices awesome staff good cooks”

“Fantastic Authentic cuisine!! Everything tastes so fresh and delicious!”

“We had our first meal from the food trailer at The Market at Cedar Point’s Food Truck Friday. Fantastic Freshly Cooked Food … loved it.”

“Out of the many times I have eaten lunch or dinners here, I don't think I have ever had a complaint. The staff is always friendly and the food is always delicious. Highly recommend using their online website to join their waitlist for a table prior to going to the restaurant especially around holidays or weekends as this restaurant does get fairly busy.”

“Awesome and excellent food & service”

“We ordered on Grubhub and the driver never picked it up. The employees at Papa John’s were so sweet and helpful. They made it easy for us to just pick it up ourselves.”

“I love JM's. Best subs anywhere. Done.”

“beautiful atmosphere. nice music . relaxing. excellent food”

“The food was great, the service was great and the atmosphere was good. It did take extra time to get our food, which our server was very kind about it and kept us updated. It wasn't a big deal. I wish it hadn't cut into our putting our son to bed time, but things happen. We will DEF go again because things happen that you can't control, especially in restaurant kitchens. Thanks!”

“Best seafood ever!! Love eating on the water.”

“They are the best tasting buffet in North Carolina! The Hibachi Chef’s are amazing for they always go the extra mile in cooking the food how you want it. I would rate it 11 out of 10. Thank you to the chefs, servers, and cashiers for they are exceptional as well.”

“They make the best shakes, slushy, and frozen treats. I love the way they bring the food right to your vehicle. The staff is very friendly.Kid-friendliness: Kids would love it here.Parking: Every place that you park is where they bring you your order. Very cool.”

“This restaurant is currently undergoing construction. Hopefully it will be open again soon. Love Chick FIL A. Closest one to me. Need my fix!!!”
