“How did we ever survive in on Topsail Island without Maine Lobstah Shack!!! Having spent years in the New England region, I know good from great when it comes to Lobster! The lobster rolls are to die for and the lobster bisk is the best I've ever had. On top of that, it is a wonderful family owned and family run business. At the end of the day, it is the quality of the food that keeps us coming back! Treat yourself!!! Definately a five star experience!!”

They were patient while we looked over the menu to decide what we wanted.I went with the special, which was the “Not so Cajun shrimp” over rice with a green beans. I'm so glad I did because it did not disappoint! It was loaded with flavor from the sauce to the rice to the green beans.Highly recommend!!”

“Although this is a self-promoted "Steelers" entity (#GoRavens), the food has always been great. It has a large menu with variable prices and food choices for all diners. Favorite menu items are the scallops dinner and ice cream pie hands down. The reuben, dirty bird, ribs, and steaks are also great, but the crab dip and crab cakes were not up to par with the rest of the menu in my opinion.Kid-friendliness: Can be loud at times for kids but they provide coloring pages and crayons to keep little ones occupied while waiting for food.”

The menu has lots of different sushi rolls and some other entrees. We ordered an appetizer of Rangoons that were very crispy! We then ordered two specialty rolls! They were pretty yummy. The food came out very quickly and the workers were all very nice. Prices were average ~$16 for each specialty roll. Overall a nice meal!”

“Great local seafood tex/mex walk up food stand essentially.Food is great, haven't had a bad thing on the menu and I've tried it all. The menu is pretty small but that keeps the service time with quick turn around. Highly recommend the the coconut rice in whatever you get.Prices are fair considering you are in central Surf City in the middle of everything touristy.Atmosphere, the seating is all outdoor covered and uncovered picnic, rail counter or small table seating. I don't know I'd say it's good for large parties and it's not a formal eating place.Highly recommend Shaka Taco, just wish the location was easier to get in and out of sometimes.Parking: There are 2 small lots for parking next to the building but they are hard to navigate if you have a large vehicle.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a handicap accessible ramp to the ordering window and they will bring your food to your table after ordering.”

“We have been coming to Topsoil for years and this is the one of two reliably good places to eat on the island, in my opinion. We've never been disappointed and always leave full.Ironically, never had their oysters, but their shrimp is delicious and we always, *always*, get the fries for the app.Dietary restrictions: Great with allergens to ensure no cross contamination on the menu. We've never requested modifications, though.Parking: Parking can be difficult during on season, but never any problems off season. Be careful where you park, because some spaces are reserved for specific businesses.”

“Was in town for a vacation with the kids and wandered into this place on a walk. It was a treasure. Like something out of a story book this cozy book store is piled high with interesting books, and Knick-knacks. I got lost wandering the place and enjoyed perusing the wide variety of tomes. I knew my wife would love the place so on one of the rainy days I dropped her off there and didn't see her again for hours. They offered delicious muffins, and a nice dose of sarcasm. I really enjoyed the place and would highly recommend this little gem of a shop.”
