“The food here was lights out some of the best seafood I've had. The crab bisque was spicy and rich, softshell crab tacos and nachos were loaded up. They give you loads of perfectly cooked, delicious seafood. The wait staff was attentive and charming - we all really enjoyed everything about this place.“
“This place in KittyHawk is by far THE BEST in the area for fresh seafood, a great selection, and the friendliest , knowledgeable staff. I visited another store in the area which was rated a half star higher, and I walked out almost immediately, and went back to Carawan. No comparison! Selection, knowledge and courtesy is hallmark of this place. Thank you so much for being in business!“
“This was a most delightful meal and experience ! The food was well crafted and presented including some lovely surprises like Apple cider sorbet ! Our server was very knowledgeable and pleasant . The ambiance is inviting and romantic and we would recommend it highly .“
“The atmosphere was great for the whole family. We recommend the Nashville hot chicken sandwich - it’s spicy. The crab cake sandwich was also great - not a lot of filler. The fried onions were so good as a side. Service is top notch. 10/10 recommend coming here. Food was 10/10.“
“Service awesome. Be patient I promise.it is worth the wait. You will not be disappointed. Food and presentation was incredible. The time and surprisingly unexpected tastes to even the simple things you take for granted. The fresh homemade bread, buttered just eight, the added extra to make grits not grits. The light and airy omelette with he fresh ingredients left one not wanting to not be part of the clean plate club. Wonderful. The pricing definitely.on the lower side of others around, however, would totally pay more! Will not disappoint!“
“During the off-season, this place is always packed with locals. Generous portions at good prices. We had clam trips, hush puppies, and my wife had Mahi bites, which were super fresh and delicious. It's super easy in and out from the main road that goes through Duck. Free parking.“
“This review is based solely on the last 2 times I've been to Jimmy's this year (2023). -- When I went in a group of people (6): every thing went well. Nice waiters checking on us throughout our meal. Water refilled often. -- When I went in there alone (1) as my family was kinda sick of seafood that day: less than average experience! One guy kept checking to make sure I (1) start my meal, (2) hurry through it, and (3) pay and get the h*ll out. It wasn't exactly a packed evening either; just kinda crowded but not long waiting line. They didn't offer to refill water. And get this, whenever I checked my phone for a minute, that same waiter/guy will come ask if everything's okay. I was thinking to myself, 'are you okay'? and "You know we do have a 2 hours limit" blah blah. It was only 1 hour and 20 minutes in since I was placed. Plus I ate slowly and already finished my meal. I was just sitting there waiting for my husband to pick me up... Not like I tried to stay a whole night or eat like it's the last day I have food. How rude! I guess one lone person sitting at a table by herself could be a crime?? Hello Anyway, I felt very rushed through the entire experience. Would've rated less than 3 star if it wasn't for all of the previous great experiences. I guess in the future I'll bring at least another person when I go there, so I don't have to go through this type of treatment again. Not when each ticket is $66 (that was their "Specials night" with the lobster tails deal which turned out mediocre quality of lobster tails; and after everything it's $80+ a person. I'd laugh at myself if it happens again. P/s: The bathrooms are not well lit (super dark my toddler was a little afraid getting in there) Door lock mechanism was broken on one stall. Floor and surrounding items dirty. I do like the style of wood doors and stall walls. Very big gaps at the bottom though.“
“We had a wonderful experience at the Back Pelican for lunch. Our server, Kayla, was spot on with the recommendations she gave us. We had enough food left over to have an entire meal the next day. Our server was very attentive and friendly. My husband had a tuna salad sandwich and I had a chicken salad sandwich. The french fries were amazing, as was the iced tea.“
“Great food, service , and atmosphere (loved sitting outside with our puppies). We had the crab dip which was amazing, fish tacos, and the pulled pork sandwich. Sarah was a wonderful, attentive waitress and the "ole gray headed guy" was awesome and took care of us outside with the heat. Are puppies were very happy with their meal as well.“
“Having a crab boil at our wedding was so fun and one of the many highlights of the night! Everyone commented on how delicious the food was and OBX Boil was not only super responsive, but very flexible with the changes I asked to make during the planning process. There was one mix up with the vegetarian boil and they were so kind to try to fix it on the spot just to make sure everybody was happy. I would use OBX Boil again and again for our catering needs.“
