    I didn't take pictures because I was too busy eating. I had Broiled Grouper with the best green…read morebeans and hush puppies ever! The clam chowder was NOT good because it was soup, not chowder. It also was tasteless. Service was great!

    Came in on a Thursday evening at 5:30pm because it was close to where we were staying (2min away)…read more Because the wait for in person dining was 45-50min I ordered to go, getting the she crab soup, the blackened red snapper and blackened grouper along with a kids fried flounder. Ambiance 5/5: Loved the casual, beach ambiance and water/dock view, fitting the vibe of a beach town. Service 4/5: Service was friendly overall and pretty prompt Food 2/5: I think we caught them on an off day. The hush puppies and green beans were great. All the fish were unfortunately overcooked and severely under seasoned. And it was unfortunately not just our order but all our friends orders who also ordered to go. Not only was the fish unfortunately tough, but it desperately needed salt and flavor (missing the typical blackened flavor). We were all really disappointed especially since we had heard good things from some customers who had been before. Price 3/5: If the food had been solid, I would have ranked higher. I really would like this to love this place. They were efficient and ambiance was great, doing their best to accommodate the large crowds. But we unfortunately caught them on a bad day.

    My family and I were vacationing in Emerald Isle and chose this restaurant for one of our evening…read moremeals. On June 24th, we first attempted to call the restaurant multiple times in order to place an order. So my husband and I chose to drive to the restaurant to place a carry out order and wait. When the hostess was placing the order, she said that anything over $100 would impose a 18% gratuity. This was a carry out order. We were not being seated in the restaurant. The hostess got the manager Amber. Amber was not receptive at all to our point that this was a carry out order. Our choice to tip or not is our choice. The order was $103. Really. Wow. My daughter insisted she would pay the tip. But my husband and I will not set foot inside this establishment again. Very disappointing. First we were told that the phones were working, but I got a message saying the voicemail had not been set up. Second, we drove in thinking we had to pay to park. Third we placed the order, but, I had to call my daughter to get additional info about cooking preferances. Fourth, we placed the order with the hostess who then tells us there is a 18% tip imposed on orders over $100. The order was $103 (after my husband and I dropped our meals from the order). This is absolutely absurd. Very frustrating evening for my husband and I. We are on vacation, and this is the hospitality shown to visitors. We asked to split the order, so that I could place an order for my daughter and my husband could place an order for us. But oh no, you can't do that. And then we were told that there would be a charge to use a credit card. Do you know how to rub salt in the wound. We paid $133.89 for a carry out food order that was barely over $100.
