“Excellent local restaurant. Great shrimp and grits. Owners are strong community supporters, as well!!“

“The food in this restaurant is the best. The sesame chicken, chicken and kale beef are all delicious. Every time I place an order, I tell the front desk person that the sesame chicken should be 9 points crispy. The stuff and hygiene are the best. Thank you to every staff member in the Great Wall store. Thank you.“

“Great food. Outstanding dood & drinks. And WONDERFUL people!“

“We ate at The Trading Post last night. The food was great and the staff was friendly. What stood out the most was how well the staff worked together. They were helping each other, filling glasses and delivering food for each other, the hostess never stopped moving…constantly checking to see if wait staff needed assistance. A great overall experience.“

“Hostess was a jerk..jersey... don't want any part of that“

“Early dinner ... we had shave ribeye steak subs and fries... DELICIOUSLY flavorful!! Tried the appetizer: Chicken Brocolli Cheddar Fritter Balls-- good gracious they were AMAXING!! House made ranch dressing for dipping. Another plus was really nice gift shop on site... plus HOMEMADE old family recipe fudges!!! WOW!! A really nice family feel to this place instead of just a bar hang out joint. Very nice attentive staff working here.“

“Me and my two boys were the only ones there while eating but the pizza was delicious and honestly the best I have had in awhile. They are elderly ppl who worked there and so kind.

Kid-friendliness: Very welcoming of my two boys and friendly.“

“They won't take reservations and we called ahead for a party of 11. After spending money at their bar on drinks and appetizers, They then tried to put us at two totally separate tables and when we requested to wait for two closer tables they refused. nobody wants to meet up with their family for vacation and have to sit apart. to top it off the manager was rude!“

“Great atmosphere, good food and friendly staff. We have been coming to Emerald Isle for five years and after visiting the sharks den it will become our new regular hangout. Recommend to anyone visiting Emerald Isle.“

“We held a rehearsal dinner for my son’s wedding at Caribsea! We were so pleased with everything from the planning to the final bill. The atmosphere was elegant and cozy, the food was fabulous, and the service was above and beyond! We had a lot of guests with food allergies… chef prepared specific plates for each of those guests, they labeled all of the food just in case we missed anyone’s allergy (we did buffet style for the majority of our 50 guests.) The final cost (even with an open bar) was a pleasant surprise. I gave Caribsea a budget and they stayed well under - I was shocked. The quality of everything was worth so much more. Everyone had a great time! I want to thank Vito, chef and the wait staff - everyone was so kind and so professional!

Vegetarian options: We had vegan, serious food allergies, and gluten free guests. Chef made plates specifically for their likings.“

“Everything on the menu is great. Great service too.“

“We had the spaghetti with marinara, and the Ham and cheese stromboli. Both of which were delicious! You could taste the love put into them! Amazing portion size for the money! We also had a slice of the lemon cello mascarpone cake as well, so moist and delicious!“
