People were lined up for opening, the food is fresh and delicious, the drinks were amazing. Our groups sampled some tuna bites, crab soup, crab grenades, fresh raw oysters, hush puppies, a lobster ravioli dish with scallops and an Atlantic flounder dish. Everything was good. We also had the Kitty Hawk Old Fashioned and an Apple ginger fizz, both were amazing! We left full and satisfied.
Great food and excellent service. Good value.
We ate dinner there last nite, it is 1st come 2st serve. The oysters were delicious, the spicy tuna Poke was outstanding! Sam our waitress was perfect in all that she did for us. She ca wait on me anywhere! The house made cocktail sauce was fantastic also!

North Banks Restaurant & Raw Bar is a top-rated dining destination in Corolla, known for its excellent food and friendly service. Customers often praise the crab soup, seafood pasta, shrimp and grits, and especially the crab legs, which are hot and very good. The scallops on risotto also receive high marks. The staff, including a friendly hostess, are attentive and helpful. Seating can be limited, and there may be long wait times during peak season; visitors are advised to put their name on the list about an hour before they want to eat and enjoy shopping in TimBuk II while waiting. The key lime pie is a must-try dessert. Although reservations are not accepted, many find the wait worthwhile. Some guests noted a small 3% credit card processing fee on the bill. Overall, North Banks offers a delicious and varied menu, a solid bar, and a welcoming atmosphere, making it one of the most recommended spots in Corolla for both locals and visitors alike.
