“Local restaurant with upscale fare and comfortable atmosphere. Shrimp and grits is a specialty, but if you can't do shrimp, get your grits fix with the Brown Butter Chicken. The Horseradish Salmon is also excellent. Don't wait for dinner...head in for lunch and beat the rush. Or, stop in for an afternoon break and order dessert. Living in luxury!“
“Great experience had the famous crab cake sandwich. The staff was great, and the food tasted great. I think they should make the crab cake a bigger portion for the sandwiches. Felt like the bread consumed. I did taste the crab care by itself, amazing.“
“This was such good food.. not only that but the hospitality of the staff and the friendliness of each person there! Thank you for being open on Easter so my family could enjoy a great meal! We live very close so we will be back! Happy ressurection Sunday! He is risen!“
“A hidden gem in New Bern, food always fantastic and on the water!! Michelin star chef David Owens was the chef at Swansboro’s Saltwater Grill and Mgr Jessica knocked it out of the park today! What’s not to love!! (I’m a foodie).Wheelchair accessibility: One level“
“My first time there. The food smelled sooo good when I picked it up. It tasted even better when I ate it. Very friendly. The only reason for 4 star for atmosphere is this place is in a small spot by the uhaul company. It actually deserves its own building. Fantastic!Also they give you good portions of food.“
“Really like Paula's. The portion sizes aren't huge, but I always feel full when I eat there. The food is good and tasty. I got the ziti, and it was really good. Stuffed shells are also good, as is the garlic bread. The food is more homemade than fine dining, but that's what I like about it.The wait staff is always pleasant and attentive. My only complaint is that sometimes it takes several minutes for the hostess to acknowledge you. She doesn't even say it'll be a few minutes. Despite standing 2 feet in front of me. I get that you are busy, but just saying hello and I'll be with you in a few minutes would be appreciated.Vegetarian options: There isn't a huge selection, but enough options to eat a full meal. I stick to items made with marinara sauce.“
“We had a party of seven for birthday celebrations and we had reservations at 5:30 and got in right away and got served right away. The food was very delicious and the prices are very reasonable. The workers were very pleasant and helpful when we requested something extra. Had a great time being there and enjoyed the meal thoroughly.Parking: They are always very busy but we always have been able to find a spot to park.“
“The food was fantastic! The young man who took our order was very polite. My only complaint is that we were not given our gallon of sweet tea that came with our family meal and we didn't realize it until we were too far away to go back. Other than that, great!“
“I've heard about this place for almost 10 years and never eaten here till last night. Had the fried dill pickle chips, ribeye (medium), and an old fashioned with Angel's Envy bourbon.Our server was excellent and all four of us had no complaints or concerns about our food. It is a little pricey but that is the best ribeye I've had on the crystal coast.“
“The food had big portions like the chicken fried rice. It also comes with not just a salad but a soup which is really good if you're still itching for food. My server was amazing, she had such an eccentric and fun personality and really enjoyed having her as my serving. I truly recommend going to sake and requesting either one of these 2 servers (May or Ree).“
“Great service and amazing food. Skipped the hour and a half wait time by sitting at the bar. The bartenders were great and conversational. I don't eat out very often, as I have 2 kids, so being able to go out and enjoy myself with my husband is a luxury, and this place did not disappoint. I ordered the yellow fin tacos with Mac and cheese, and my husband ordered the shrimp tacos with potato fries. The food was hot and delicious. The bartenders were overloaded with drink orders but still served us quickly and with amazing attitudes. If I ever get the chance for another date night, I'm coming back here.Parking: Parking at the front and side of the building. First come, first serve, limited space.“
