The food? Always on point. We make it a rule to try something new every visit, and somehow it never disappoints.

Whether you’re local or just passing through, it’s the kind of place that makes you say, “Yep… this is why I love the coast.” Great service, amazing food, good vibes, and a true Morehead City coastal feel.

“The epitome of fried seafood on the Crystal Coast!”

“My wife and I were here last night for our anniversary dinner, second time dining here to celebrate. I cannot say enough how impressed we were. From the warm greeting we received the second we walked in to the speedy seating, to the cozy atmosphere . The wait staff was wonderful, informative, and friendly. The food? Incredible! Lobster and crab dip very tasty ....the Scallops were truly amazing and fresh cooked to absolutel PERFECTION. Tuna, amazing . Veggies, perfect. Everything was hot and served very quickly. To top it off the owner took the time to speak with us at the end of our dinner. He was incredibly nice and educated us on seafood. One of the things that really speaks volumes about this restaurant was him and the fact that the waitress told us later it's a wonderful place to work and the staff is treated well! That's rare to hear. Great job by all and we will be back”
