Fabulous menu. Started with figs abs prosciutto, seared scallops with cilantro lime butter followed. The jasmine rice and vegetables were perfect. Key lime pie was the perfect final touch. All enjoyed from an open air table served by Julius. Awesome evening on Ocracoke Island. Thanks
Our first visit to this restaurant after years of coming to the island. Great food, nice selection, great service.

The restaurant offers a good selection of seafood and other dishes, including the excellent Wagyu burger with a toasted sesame bun. However, the consistency of the dishes can be hit and miss, with the shrimp and scallop pasta lacking a flavor punch. The service, while generally friendly, can be slower than expected, with drinks going empty and orders being incorrect. The pecan encrusted Drum and bacon wrapped scallops are excellent, and the desserts, particularly the sticky toffee pudding and the layered coconut cake, are sinful and delicious. The atmosphere is nice and friendly, and many guests find that Back Porch never disappoints.
