“Wonderful dinner and so delicious! We decided to have a bunch of different things from the appetizer menu and share. The blackened scallops were amazing!!!! The staff were very attentive and the food came out fast! Definitely will be back next time we vacation down here!“

“I love this restaurant. The staff are friendly and inviting. The food is obviously made to order with fresh ingredients. I got the roll your own tacos with blackened Mahi Mahi, a cup of shrimp and corn chowder, and sweet potato waffle fries. I also got baklava for dessert BUT that isn’t always available so I felt special especially because it was the day before my birthday.“

“when my now husband and i discussed marriage, i had already known the place i wanted to get married was the Inn on Pamlico Sound. he asked me to marry him Memorial Day weekend 2024, and we booked them as our venue the next weekend. Steve and Meredith and their team remained in constant communication with us regarding every detail, question we had, vendor choices, etc. the dinner options were so hard to choose from but we ultimately decided on the taco bar - because, tacos, duh! we had the chipotle chicken, ground beef, and blackened catch of the day which ended up being mahi mahi. i’ve never been so hype to eat tacos in my life, everything was amazing! and then the home made tortilla chips and salsa just added icing to the cake! everything was delicious and was served hot and ready as our guests were seated - it wasn’t sitting in warming bins just waiting for the ceremony to be over. not only is the venue itself beautiful and stands out, the food and staff made our experience and our guests’ experience truly unforgettable. my husband and i currently live on hatteras island and we will definitely be doing our anniversary dinners at Cafe Pamlico, and i’m already looking forward to it!!! thank you Steve, Meredith, and all staff involved in our day! you all worked your tails off to make everything come together and we so appreciate yall!“
