Dined here with my partner on a Saturday afternoon during sunset. Off-season is lovely, it was not busy at all and we got to enjoy a very quiet dinner together. Paige took very good care of us and was so amazing to us - we discovered some ants on the wall by our table so she gave us a discount on our bill. I had the fish special (cobia - delicious!!) and my partner had the chicken breast. We both immensely enjoyed our meals and got the peanut butter pie to go which was to die for. Beautiful atmosphere and location, and the experience was so pleasant throughout.
This is always a pleasant experience. Our servers are always very warm and chatty, and helpful with the menu. The food is very well done, though the lunch menu doesn't have tons of options. My husband ordered their poke bowl with local tuna and I the banging shrimp tacos. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals - both dishes had a good amount of meat and we're very flavorful. Their cocktails are also a favorite.
What a special night we had, everything was utterly perfect. From the seared tuna, fresh crab cakes, roasted duck, local legend JB waiting on us hand and foot w excellent timing and dinner suggestions, to top it off they sang us Happy Birthday and gave us the most delicious chocolate creation I have ever had.
Loved this place soooo so much. I had never been here previously even though I come to OBX once to twice a year. I wanted to take my best friend somewhere special one of the nights we were in town to watch the sunset. This is THE spot for that. We went on a Saturday and we’re worried it was going to be crowded but wanted to sit outside for the sunset. We got there a bit too early (around 5:30) and it was wayyyy too hot to sit outside, whoops. Reservations were full for inside seating BUT they have a bar inside AND they have a little window to order drinks from the bar from the outside!!! The AC just felt nice so we found some seats at the bar to enjoy our dinner and drinks and took our time. Our original server was CJ on the outside and he was great we felt bad leaving him for the AC, but Lucy at the bar was equally as awesome. Pacing was great for us, we like to enjoy our drinks and apps first and take out time. You HAVE to try AT LEAST ONE OF their dessert drinks! I had the AQUAlicious and my friend had the Espresso martini. After dinner we went outside to watch the sunset and listen to a great acoustic artist. This place really topped our vacation off and I’m so glad we made it there.
We had a party of 8 and a great evening. Dinner was artfully presented. The filet was cooked perfectly and the palenta was the best I have ever had. Bread served beforehand was warm and delicious. My only regret was not saving room for dessert.
