“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Aarrr Pirate Bar & Grill was such a fun surprise. The whole place has this cool pirate vibe without feeling cheesy — dim lights, lanterns, skeletons, all the little details. It actually feels cozy in its own way. The food was seriously good. The cheesesteak was loaded and delicious, and those hushpuppy-looking bites were gone in about 30 seconds. The quesadilla was huge, super cheesy, and came with fresh salsa and toppings that actually tasted good, not like an afterthought. The staff was friendly and easygoing, and the whole place just had a laid-back, good-energy feel. If you’re in North Topsail, it’s definitely worth stopping in. Good food, fun vibe, zero complaints.”

“My wife and I recently stopped by Seaview Pier Restaurant, and we had a great experience. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and provided good service from the moment we arrived. I ordered the deviled crab with battered okra and coleslaw, while my wife had the BLT. The deviled crab was excellent, and the battered okra was crispy and flavorful. The coleslaw was a great complement to the meal, and the hushpuppies were sweet, fresh, and absolutely delicious. One unique touch was the assortment of 3D-printed items they had for sale around the restaurant, which made the visit even more interesting. Overall, this was a great meal with friendly service in a relaxed atmosphere. We'd definitely stop by again the next time we're in Topsail.”

“Great food, even better people and atmosphere. As locals, we are weekly visitors. (well maybe more like three times a week on occasion.) We have NEVER not been satisfied. Ask my husband- it’s hard for ME to be satisfied. lol. But truthfully this is a gem of a spot, and consider yourself lucky if they get to know you and your order. Because this is “that kinda place””

“My husband and son and I went Saturday for dinner and as always, it was delicious. The crab dip always spot on and the best around. A special Thank You to Tanner our server, he was awesome and did such a wonderful job and made sure everything was spot on for us to have a relaxing and enjoyable dinner. Tanner you were awesome and your personality and how you deal with your customers was great, please keep that up. My heart went out to you and I felt bad after the table next to us ran you and spent $200 if not more and left you such a crap tip, that was so wrong. But don't let people like that discourage you, keep doing you, because you were great!!!”

“This was delicious. The owner is super nice and answered all of our questions as we are from the mountains of NC so oysters are not an everyday thing for us. Our waitress was very informed and stayed on top of our service. We are very happy with our experience and we will absolutely be back. Thank y’all so much.”

“Talk about working UNDER PRESSURE! These girls did such a good job on a high stress rush with SO many people. They all made sure to greet every customer, and wish them a good day when completing the order. We love coming here and Sunrise Bagel next door every vacation, typically we come much earlier in the morning so this is the first time we’ve come during a rush. Always remember to be patient and kind, they’re doing all they can to give you the best results! 🍩💗”

“While visiting the area for work I stumbled across Rick's Restaurant. I'm very happy I did. Not only was the service great (I ate at the bar) but the food was excellent. I had the ribeye steak, Bacon and cheese mashed potatoes and fries. All were very good. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get back here again lol. Definitely recommend you give them a try.”
