13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Oak Island

“Delicious food. Amazing set up and instructions for a boil at home. We even forgot to mention lobster allergy and they gave us an entire empty pot for free so we could steam it separately. Wonderful customer service. We will be back!“

“We hired Outer Banks Boil Company for our wedding in September, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we walked into the shop in Oak Island, Josh made us feel like friends. Not only did he help us out with food and catering logistics, but he was a resource for other recommendations of vendors or service providers on the island. We honestly couldn't have pulled together our wedding-day team without his recommendations. He and his team were the epitome of professionalism and kindness throughout the event, and everyone was so impressed with the energy they brought to our wedding day. And the food...the food was out of this world. Our guests said some of the best food they'd ever had at a wedding. Highly recommend Josh and OBX Boil Company for any event you are having on the island or on the coast, you and your guests will be in for a treat! Can't wait for more boils to come with this team, thanks again y'all!

Dietary restrictions: We had dietary restrictions within our guest list and Josh and team were able to accommodate no problem!“

“Best food and service. Our favorite place to eat at Oak Island“

“My family enjoyed a really wonderful meal here. The staff was over the top nice and thoughtful. We enjoyed our server and everyone else we interacted with. We had some fish sandwiches which were delicious. The fried pickles were thin and perfectly lightly fried. The coconut shrimp was delicious. We also enjoyed boiled shrimp with an amazing bbq sauce. My kids said it was their favorite meal of the trip. Great food and great service. Don’t miss this place!“

“We have had dinner there twice in the last two weeks. It was delicious! No problems. Great service. And the special last night was prime rib....for $22.00! What a bargain. We love to eat there. Seafood platters are a bargain too!“

“Amazing food and service!“

“The food is the best and they are very sweet people“

“Need an On-Line order system for take out. Getting through by phone is difficult. I guess it depends on how busy.“

“Pretty good food, friendly staff and quick service.“

“The crab dip is amazing! We also enjoyed the broiled seafood platter, the service was the best!“

“Great drinks, great food and great service! Loved the atmosphere. We will definitely be back!“

“Our meal from The Lazy Turtle this weekend was delicious as always! The fried shrimp, crab cakes & oysters were all great. Howie took our order, and was very friendly, as always. Don’t miss the “Boom Boom” sauce!“

“Wait staff was excellent, fast and friendly. Appetizer came out a little under cooked. Main dish was very tasty and hot. The atmosphere is good but a bit confusing as they have an inside bar and tables with billiards as well as a stage for live performers. Outside is nice with a bar but also where you need to locate the hostess to be seated. Overall good place to eat a little pricy for this venue but still good. Would recommend as a try at least once. Live entertainment was good but some songs were dated. Good if the target is older crowd .“
