Sunset Slush OKI & Sandcastles: Sweets & Treats Dessert • $
6006 E Oak Island Dr, Oak Island

“Best dessert/candy spot on the island! Not only do they have all their Sunset Slush favorite flavors but also some ice cream and a variety of candies in their store front location. They also help the local college and school kids during the summer by providing them a job serving the slushes on the beach! Students push the cart up and down the beach during peak seasons!“

“We love Swains. We've been regulars for years. The service is great and friendly and the food is amazing. The new early bird specials are fantastic too. We really enjoy the seafood and the appetizers and I have had some of the best char broiled steaks I've ever had there. You have to try the peel and eat shrimp with the Florida seasoning. Don't even get me started on the amazing desserts. Swains is definitely one of the best restaurants in the area and we'll be back there soon. Tuesday we were there and I had a juicy and delicious tomahawk pork chop. It was fantastic. See you there!“

“Great pizza at a great price! My wife and I shared a small Carnelicious and it was more than enough food for both of us. Price including drinks was something like $22 including top for two people. The crust was delightfully crispy on the bottom. Staff were friendly and personable, location was great, what's not to love?! We went twice during our brief stay.“

“A hidden Jem!!!! Living and growing up in NYC I know good Italian food. This place is unbelievable. I have stayed on Oak Island twice and both times had dinner here. Large portions and a fair price. I had the Veal parmesan with angle air pasta. The veal was so tender it melted in your mouth. My wife had the Frutti Di Mar a seafood dish, the seafood on the plate never ended. We both had enough leftovers for a second meal. Don't miss this restaurant if your visiting Oak Island!!!“

“I've been eating at this restaurant for several years when I'm visiting the beach, and find the food to be consistently delicious, and the service to be mostly really good. My favorite dishes are the Chicken Casa Bella, the burgers, the salads, and triggerfish (if it's available - offered as a special for the evening. I also really like the brownie a la mode dessert.This is a popular place to eat, so I find that at the height of the vacation season, it's best to get there early and avoid a wait. I also find that the service is best before they get super-busy. The staff works hard, but can get overloaded when big groups come in.“

Rustic Italian is how I would describe the outside and inside.Parking: The parking lot and the cement entry to the restaurant needs repairs.“

“We called in our order for two large cheese pizza's to go on a busy Friday night. We waited ten minutes past our pick up time but it turned out to be an interesting learning experience. While we waited, we at sat their bar and reviewed their menu which looked great. I noticed their wine pours were very generous along with a good selection of various wines that were very reasonably priced. We saw friends finishing up their meals that they both really enjoyed in the well appointed and decorated in house dining side of the restaurant so we stopped by their table to catch up. Although the pizza side of the restaurant was very busy, it did not interfere with the conversations going on at the bar. The interior dining room is almost completely walled off from both the bar, and the pizza and meal pickup area which is very well designed because your able to have a conversation at diner, and not even be aware of the pizza and takeout meal pickup or the bar area at all. Mr. Falcone (Owner) was polite to speak with in the pick up area while also being very efficient at managing all the different activities in concert which really helped move their takeout business out the door quickly. We got home, and the pizza tasted very good. So although, it was only a pizza pickup this time, based on what we were told, Falcone's is a great place to dine as well as an outstanding place to have a glass of wine, while eating one of their delicious appetizers over some stimulating or relaxing conversation. While at this point we can only recommend their pizza ourselves, we will revisit for a full meal dining experience and update this review.“

“This was a good place to eat. We got a 12" pizza with sausage, mushrooms and baby spinich. It was good. We had an older man serve us and he showed that he was not happy to serve us. He treated others that ordered alcohol much better than us as we only had water. He was really nice when he first got to our table but when we only wanted water his attitude changed from happy to extremely annoyed. The hostess was very nice. The 2 salads they have are $6.99 each. Most of the items on the menu were $20 or more. Would I go back. Yes but I would watch out for that server.“
