“Delicious, quality meal, sweet potato fries were amazing!“

“If nostalgia has a taste, this is it. I felt like I was sitting in my grandma's kitchen. The food was simple,but amazing. All of the staff treated us with kindness. Eric took time to address me by name and it is obvious how much he cares about the costumer's experience. I won't hesitate to dine there whenever I'm in town. GO DUKE!!!“

“I have been a big fan of Mo’s Pizza for years. Today I tried some other menu options and was completely blown away. The pasta and marinara are excellent. The vegetables are well prepared and fresh. They are not heavily sauced but rely on their natural flavor. The roasted potatoes were exceptional. Service was very friendly, prompt and professional. A real plus is being able to get a first rate meal without having to sit in traffic for an hour. Plenty of free parking more bonus points! Highly recommended!“

“Hands down the best restaurant in Brunswick County! The food is consistently spectacular, and I love how the menu is always evolving — it keeps things exciting and fresh. It’s refreshing to dine somewhere that truly values creativity. The drinks are expertly crafted, and the desserts are absolutely out of this world. We come here all the time, and the staff is hands-down the friendliest and most attentive we’ve ever encountered. An all-around amazing experience every single visit!“

“Celebrated my birthday at Salt64 as our first visit to the establishment. Exceptional service, David was an outstanding waiter. Food was delicious, brought promptly to our table still hot and fresh out of the kitchen. Due to its size, when all tables were full it was a bit noisy, but well worth the noise for the food and service. Don't skip dessert!“

“Great food staff and prices 5 stars all the way“

“Fun place to drink and socialize“

“We enjoyed sitting out on the deck, listening to the band. Had drinks & appetizers. It was windy. So we went inside for dinner. It was very loud, we had to yell to talk, nothing around at all soften the noise! Staff and meal took forever and not worth the wait.“

“There's nothing low about this country boil, it is all high caliber. I ordered a sample of all they offered and everything was fresh. Even the andouille sausage's spicy flavor was a pleasant surprise. Quantities were ample. Condiments were provided. Their boil seasoning is steps above Old Bay, with a slight kick depending on how much you use. I utilized their suggestion to use their signature brew for the boiling. On the subject of brews, I partnered this feast with their popular and equally flavorful Taco Life Mexican style lager. On top of everything mentioned, I now have a souvenir bucket in remembrance of a great meal.“

“The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They have an excellent variety and everything we tried was delicious. Will be back later this week for sandwiches and to stock up on scrumptious cheese.“

“Friendly staff and DELICIOUS burgers!“

“Had a great first experience here with 5 adults and 2 kids. Fast service, great sized serving of perfectly seasoned red snapper, the friendliest staff, and a good espresso martini. Jill was our server and she was phenomenal! We enjoyed chatting with her and she was super helpful for us navigating the menu. Definitely would be back!!“

“Pros: Great customer service, nice personality, food pretty good, corn ribs amazing! Cons: took about an hour to wait in line and receive food. Online ordering down, didn’t answer their phones. I think I had 2 little shrimp in my shrimp taco – portions pretty small. Didn’t give us the burrito we ordered. Might try again next year for lunch.“

“I never been here before but AJ the bartender was super nice and he answered all my questions I had, I highly recommend this place, customer service is great and so is the food.“

“5 stars! Amazing atmosphere and great food and drinks!“
