About Uncle Ike's Sandbar & Grill

Uncle Ike's Sandbar & Grill offers a welcoming atmosphere and delicious food, making it a part of many visitors' yearly traditions in the Outer Banks. The staff is attentive and helpful, accommodating dietary concerns and ensuring an enjoyable visit. The menu features tasty options such as fish tacos, shrimp, and fries, all freshly prepared. Customers often praise the crabby wings and the Ike's Skillet Grill, which includes tuna steak, shrimp, and filet, cooked to perfection. Many visitors consider Uncle Ike's a staple vacation spot, enjoying meals like the blackened fish sandwich, celebrated for its wasabi mayo and sweet Thai sauce. The drink menu is varied and always has interesting options, adding to the dining experience.

While the restaurant is located across from the park on the main road in Corolla, NC, some have found it difficult to locate due to signage. The place is bigger than it appears, extending back and outside, but due to its popularity, there is usually a small wait during the lunch rush. Experiences vary; while some diners appreciated the friendly service and quick meal delivery, others noted occasional challenges with staffing during off-peak seasons. Despite these issues, the food is consistently praised for its quality, with options like seafood nachos, fish and chips, and the recommended tacos, especially the tuna, receiving high marks. With open parking available behind the building, Uncle Ike's Sandbar & Grill remains a recommended stop for both locals and tourists visiting the Outer Banks.

We had a fantastic dinner at Uncle Ike’s Sandbar & Grill! We were seated right away and immediately noticed the great atmosphere. A huge bonus: the acoustics are fantastic—you can actually have a comfortable conversation without shouting over the crowd!

I really enjoy seafood ( crab, lobster, shrimp) chowder, and have tried it in several fine restaurants across the country. The seafood chowder was by far the best soup I have ever eaten period. We had it approximately 1 month ago while on vacation to Outer Banks. My wife and I are still talking about it, we just forgot to write a review. If they have it order it.
