We recently were in Ocracoke for 3 weeks and had the best time ever.Beach , shelling then at 3 o’clock it was off to Dajio’s for shrimp and cocktails….( dinner some nights) . The staff are THE BEST …….serving the best food and of course cocktails,Chris was our server most nights , he’s a great guy and we regarded him as a friend by the end of our vacation.So much so he and other members of the staff sighted a t shirt I bought because I wanted to have their names...read full review
Delicious dine-in or take-out food. A favorite on the island for a meal and drinks. Excellent service. Highly recommend!
Cool place. Training/bartending can improve. (Our request for a “Vesper” was met with some confusion.) Still a Top 3 on Ocracoke, in addition to Flying Melon and 1718 Brewing.
