No fresh fish! You’re by the ocean, you’re upscale, you gotta be able to serve some fresh fish. Everything in the menu is out of the freezer. Food was otherwise OK or as expected.

We had the WORST service I have ever had at a restaurant ! And we frequent restaurants frequently. We are in family vacation and there are 11 of us. We should have had a dedicated server just for us and maybe another table. After drinks it took our server almost 30 min to come take food order. She NEVER came and asked the whole table if they wanted more drinks, didn’t clear the dirty plates before main came and never asked us how things were or if we needed anything. Completely...

Beach vacation NC. We made reservations. Parking at this location parking is VERY limited. Cocktail list small. Jinks juice was good. Didn't have appetizers. Order pork chop chicken sandwich pasta steak salads. All were very good. Staff was efficient and friendly. Place not too big. Very noisy when full. Definitely a place to go though.
