“This place is really great. We went here the other day and I can’t believe I’ve never been before. The menu is really good - not overcrowded with too many options…it has the right number of options so you can actually pick out what you want.The house chips are great. We definitely will be back and I recommend you check it out too.“
“We just moved here and my husband and I were looking for a bar near our house. The venue was awesome. Live music,...Sublime covers..so good though! Food truck was awesome and crowd was. 30s 40s. Drinks discounted for ems and fire fighters. But affordable even without the discount. People were friendly and welcoming. Come here.... seriously. It was fun!“
“Easily my new favorite place in NC, or maybe anywhere. They grow and harvest all of their oysters. And wow are they magnificent. On top of that, they serve good wine + beer and chef driven food like tuna tataki, crudo, a fantastic shrimp roll, and a bougie hot dog with caviar!!I can't wait to come back next week. This a gem of this area!“
“This bar is cute…the music ? they play in the evenings sounds good. We enjoyed it every night as we stayed in the Vacasa rental right next to the bar! The drinks we got today were delish…We got the “TIT” and my daughter got a “trailer trash”….they were both tasty!“
“It is a very hard place to find. It's a small place squeezed in between a row of shops. Beer was good. Very small inside. Didn't eat while there, so I can not rate that. Parking is very limited since it's right beside beach access.“
“Moved here about 7 yrs ago. Dales won my respect from the first visit. Hope is an amazing bartender and person, hang on to someone l Iike that..they bring the candor needed in a business to create loyalty just by bringing a smiling face to work no matter what they have going on. Thank you to Dales and Hope for making me feel at home everytime I pop in there for a short visit.“
“This is our favorite place to eat on the island. Chips, salsa, guac, cheese dip and margs are fresh and delicious. Menu has so many options and the food always tastes out of this world. It is not your average joe mexican place, it is well well above average.“
“Stopped in for dinner with the family and got the fried seafood. The flounder and fried shrimp were okay, but the fried scallops were amazing. Scallops are easy to overcook but those sea scallops were just right. Also had the fried green tomatoes appetizer and that was pretty good as well.“
“Complete and utter vibes. Colder weather means outdoor heaters and tented off space to still be able to "sit outside" but you're warm. Great staff and even greater fun crowd of people. Sat down and had great conversation. Love it in the summer even more open night sky in the warm weather. Great spot would recommend.“
“Dennis and. David and. Bartender are. Awesome. Had a great time singing. Karaoke. Love those. Burgers and. Fries ice cold. Doctor. Peppers. D .J. Helles. Bell was. Awesome.was good to have. James. Back. Singing from. Florida.ill be. Back good seeing old. Friends.“
“We were visiting Topsail for my best friend’s birthday and she picked this place at random. She said while we were playing pool that this added to making her birthday the best one yet! They had a great DJ, lots of games, and the staff went the extra mile to make it special for her even though they didn’t know we were coming. I’m really happy we chose Salty Hawg to end the weekend.“
“We were driving through trying to find food after 9pm. We stopped here on a Monday night at 9:20 & the bartender was super sweet-Linda is her name!! I got the chicken salad sandwich, husband & uncle got the steak & cheese sub, and my aunt the hamburger. GIRL. BANGINGGGGGG FOOD!!!!! 10/10/10/10. burger was juicyyyyyyy. Steak & cheese was chunks of steak, not like a thin steakum (we actually ended up taking 2 more to go they were so good). Chicken salad sandwich was actual chunks of chicken & not some weird paste.“
“Good food. Good service. Not a bad place. Bathrooms are a bit ‘primitive’ but they were clean. Menu could use an overhaul. It was very close seating - not happy to have people throwing darts right behind me.Parking: Not striped- park at your own risk. Not well lit. Gravel.“
“Live our lil home away from home between the fact they are the biggest club on the island they are ALWAYS having fun things going on plus APA pool league on Tuesday nights dancing and bands on weekends. Arcade down stairs for the kids. I definitely say check them out!“
“This waterfront restaurant has seating inside and outside. The outside seating has a nice view of the water. We appreciated being able to bring our dog to sit quietly at our feet at our table outside. We started with the Bam Bam Shrimp. It was a very large portion of large shrimp in a nice sauce. For our meals we ordered grilled and broiled seafood. The scallops and flouder were large portions and fresh and delicious. The cole slaw and fries were good, too. Server was attentive.“
“Took my 97 year old father-in-law on Wednesday around 4. We both got the shrimp basket and it was more than either of us could finish. Very reasonable, the staff very friendly and knowledgeable. Great view of the marsh and lots of birds to watch while you eat.“
“Whether I'm here by the pier, spending the weekend at one of the many rentals, or of course eating at Buddy's it's always a great time, this place is an epicenter of what ENC has to offer, you won't be disappointed, unless you have a shellfish allergy or don't like sand......why did you come here if you don't like sand...? Anyway.....100% recommend it as a permanent stop when in the area.“
“Even though it is early January, the place is very laid back and inviting. Don't let the outside fool you, it is great spot for good beers and great food. We had the BBQ Chicken Pizza and it was great! Staff was fun and very enjoyable!“
