I had high expectations for this place. We live near by but finally had the chance to stop and try their tasting board. It was $60 a person and the food was overcooked, under seasoned and just fell flat. I was so disappointed. I don’t mind paying $60 a person but it’s got to be great! Beignets were amazing along with the cauliflower and shrimp/grits.

Extremely incompetent host staff. Attempted to go here with my family for a nice dinner and was told the wait would be 30 minutes for a seat outside. She said it would be full sun we said no problem and she took our number down. We got a confirmation text, we sat outside waiting for our table. After seeing parties who arrived after us, we went inside to inquire about our spot on the waitlist which we were told it would be an hour and we were listed to be sat inside. No acknowledgment or accountability taken by the hosts. Called and spoke with the manager Justin who acknowledged this mistake. Will not give my business to a place who hires incompetent host staff who are arguably an important aspect to a restaurant as this is who you see first and have a first impression of a restaurant.

Amazing! The scallops was the best dish on my entire vacation! Definitely will need a reservation.

Fish and chips with Mahi Mahi was great! Our waitress was awesome. My wife had Mahi tacos and liked them. Parking suck, parking sucks, parking SUCKS. There is very little space between the two parking rows to turn around or maneuver.

This place was recommended by a local and they were right! It is a bit expensive but the food is amazing and you get a lot of it! Not to mention the service was amazing too!

Our whole group had some of the best meals we've had in A WHILE here. Right on the water, AMAZING food, modern atmosphere and really great staff. Jenny was excellent! Highly recommend.

We had been patrons of Red Sky and NC Coast at both openings. We specifically requested bar seats to watch college football. But, when we arrived none were available. The 18 something’s working the front end seemed nonplussed. The experienced staff talked us in, but while the food was great as always, the service was lacking. Hard to enjoy a good meal if you are treated this disrespectfully. We’re not locals but native North Carolinians. Salt Box, Blue Moon, and Kill Devil Grill have always been friendlier and worth the drive from Duck.

I recently went to OBX with my family for the holidays, and NC Coast Grill & Bar was hands down our favorite dining experience. Everything was fresh, unique, and delicious. The scallop dish was amazing — we can’t wait to go back!

We ate outside in the afternoon when their appetizer menu was available. Good food, nice atmosphere and service. Crab cakes, crab dip, and Mexican poutine were excellent. Sweet pot bisque was good...2 of our party thought it was too sweet but still good. Sweet Potato Burrata salad was excellent as well.
Absolutely loved coming here in the offseason for lunch and another day for dinner. Jack hooked us up with one of the best spicy bloody mary’s ever. Oysters were so nice we had to get them twice. It was a pleasure sitting in Jackie’s section for dinner. She provided exceptional service and was a hoot to chat with. All our food was superb. Treat yourself to the beignets. Can’t wait to be back next year.

Awesome vibe on the water! Outside seating near the boardwalk was awesome! Great view of the bay from all outside seating areas! Staff were very courteous, engaging and accommodating for our large group! Will plan to eat here every visit!

Server Lexie was great! Informative and personable. Food and drinks were also amazing. Very festive for Christmas...was our 2nd visit to NC Coast. Will definitely be back.
We also recommend NC Coast to our guests at Whale Deserved in Corolla.
Thank you! -Lauren, Tom and Thomas.

What a triumph! Every bite, from the baby beet salad to the delectable red curry vegetables with bulgogi beef and Jasmine rice, and finishing with heavenly homemade beignets, was a masterpiece. It was exhilarating to reunite with Ashli after nearly five years and bask in the beauty of the OBX.
