“Great atmosphere! We drove from the northern side of Onslow Co and would do it again. My bff and I love trying new places and we will drive hours to do so.
This wasn't even a long one for us. We had my special needs son with us today.
We tried alot of different things on the menu. They offer a variety of wine but I'm not a drinker and she was my driver today so we didn't get to sample. Normally I am driving and she would be the tester lol.
Next time she will.“

“Friendly and welcoming upon entering. Impressively clean, especially the restrooms- extra extra points. Bartenders are always attentive, talkative, they know their stuff and their products so they can always help customers like myself who don't drink often but want to try something new. The owner is present, heavily involved in community events and fundraisers, and is always donating to those in need. She jumps in when needed without hesistation- the definition of a devoted, kind, involved business owner.“

“Service Tonight at 34 North in Beaufort

I wanted to take a moment to recognize what an amazing experience my wife and I had tonight at 34 North. From the moment we walked in, we truly enjoyed the ambience, the outstanding food, and the excellent customer service.

What made our evening especially memorable was our waitress, Shannon. She was absolutely outstanding. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine kindness made our night special. She was on point with every recommendation she made, and every suggestion turned out to be amazing. It is rare these days to find someone who truly takes pride in delivering exceptional service, and Shannon did exactly that.

Management needs to make sure they hold on to this one because employees like Shannon are hard to find. She represents your restaurant extremely well and made us feel welcomed and appreciated throughout the entire evening.

Thank you, Shannon, for making our night such a great experience with your professionalism and awesome customer service. My wife and I will definitely be back, and without question, we will be asking for Shannon.

Sincerely,Donnie Hardee“

It was those people from Raleigh that wanted to continue to b**** about everything, and thanks to my second martini, I didn't give them a little bit of local redneck, and tell them to go back to Raleigh Like I wanted to, but Yep, Yep, it was an amazing meal. Great atmosphere.Great, everything we'll definitely be coming back“
