I CANNOT believe that there are ANY BAD reviews for this restaurant!!! The staff was Fabulous & the food was outrageously AMAZING!!! We had the admirals platter.(flounder shrimp scallops…) and fried oysters- all to die for!!!! Don’t let me forget the awesome hand cut fries!Yes it’s a bit more expensive but I’m more than willing to pay extra for this quality all-way-round.Thanks to Aleah & all the other peeps making it great!!

What a great spot for a big group. We have seven starving people and our service was excellent and the giant four patty burger with chilli was just perfect. Great place to chill and enjoy sports and friends.

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.

Super bummed this place was a bust! Looked like a cool little sports bar from the outside. The food was incredibly overpriced. Our waitress was too busy to give us the time of day, even though it wasn’t that busy. She seemed way too stressed out and others seemed to be frustrated with her as well. I order a pretzel with cheese, which the pretzel was large, I’ll give them that, but $9.99 ADDITIONAL for the little bowl of cheese. Not cheese and pretzel together. $7.99 for pretzel and $9.99 for cheese. The menu was misleading in making you think it was $9.99 for the both because who in their right mind would charge that much for a small bowl of cheese?! My husband got $30 steamer with 3 legs on his cluster of crab and a handful of shrimp. Totally disappointed in this place. $65 for a soda, pretzel, cup of chili and handful of shrimp and a gimpy crab leg. Not worth it. Oh yea, they started closing up some of the area at 9 when they close at 10. One of the worst experiences I think I’ve ever had and I don’t say that lightly. Such a bummer.

Food is waaaaayyyyy overpriced and low quality. $30 for a handful of steamed shrimp and a single cluster of snow crab legs (missing one leg, mind you) and no sides. Crab was cooked to death and dry. Our waitress was MIA while other servers were moping around. Totally disappointing for a Saturday night and I'll never go back. One cup of chili, one soft pretzel with cheese dip, one shrimp/crab steamer, and one soda was almost $70Nothing was good or noteworthy.

On 2/2/24. I ordered the meatball sub special. Took 2 bites from 1/2 and 1 bite from the other. Tasted disgusting. Told the waitress and sent back. They took 1/2 the meal off my bill, 7.50. Ended up with food poisoning because of sandwich. Sick from early Saturday into Sunday morning. Looking at my bank account late Sunday morning shows waitress gave herself 20.00.tip on my card. Called the manager told her what happened, she said she would remove the tip and rest of meal. That has yet happened. I will not return or recommend to anyone.

Good food, cool surfer atmosphere and like anything at the beach a little over-priced.

Atmosphere is tavern style. Can be expensive depending on your orders and alcohol purchases. Had the broiled fish that was not cooked well. Fries were cold and limp. Service was excellent with Pam.

Quite simply the greatest scallops I've ever had. My boss had the shrimp and grits and... You know that feeling when your body automatically closes your eyes while you are enjoying the food? Yeah... It was like that.

Another one of the few restaurants left in the OBX that has outstanding service, food, and atmosphere!! Stopped here for lunch, quickly greeted, drinks arrived quickly, and even though we ordered everything all at once, (appetizers, and entree's) it was paced so that everything didn't hit the table all at once. Will definitely be back! :)
