    We had a large group for dinner on a Friday night and we were seated quickly. Our server was friendly and took our order promptly. The food came out quick and hot. They have live music on Friday nights in a small/open space, so make sure to get there early if you have small children. We would definitely come back on a date night to enjoy the music and drinks!

    Chicken Sandwich
    Dave U.

    Our first time eating at this new venue. There's plenty of parking. The place is huge(2 levels of dining). Lots of seating for large parties. Our group of 8 came at 5:30p and we were seated immediately. Staff were friendly. Our server was always checking on us. Our table was long so it was harder for the further people to hear her talking. Food was hit or miss. My sandwich was super high because they placed 2 chicken breast on top of each. It's impossible to sink your teeth into something that tall. It had good Nashville Hot spices. The fries were hot and the portion was plenty.

    Sushi stack
    Hailey K.

    It was 4th of July and the staff were busting their butts and keeping it all together. We sat at the bar and although the bartender was slammed, she was very attentive. The sushi stack is my favorite. This is my second time getting it and I would highly recommend it. Great place for drinks and to grab some food at the bar!

    Amazing!!!!! Highly recommend! Fun drinks! Creative appetizers! Lots of choices! Great kid's menu! For appetizers, the cheese curds were SOOO GOOD! For food, I got the crab legs and those were amazing as well! Kids were happy with the chicken strips (huge portion!!) and pizza! The dirty bird sandwich was ginormous! I didn't taste that, but I heard it was delicious! Good prices! The service was amazing. Ellie was so attentive. Everything was decked out for Christmas - super cute vibe. All around great spot!

    Grapefruit Mojito was absolutely delicious!
    Sara M.

    We loved this place so much that we ate here twice during our 5 day stay in OBX. Everything we had was delicious and the vibe here is so fun! There is an outdoor bar if you're waiting on a table, along with plenty of cozy outdoor seating. We wanted to try seafood boil on our first night, and it was nothing short of amazing. All the seafood was so fresh and food was served quickly. Also, the grapefruit mojito might be my new favorite cocktail!

    For the area this place was pretty good. Our server was great. He was on top of everything and ensured our drinks stayed filled. Overall food was good. Oysters weren't that great but were inexpensive. Nothing stood out as a must try but all food was consistent.

    The seafood boil was pretty good and a nice portion of food. We also got the pickle fries which were very good! All of the staff were very kind and attentive! I really liked the restaurant itself as it had a lot of seating - upstairs and outside as well as the first level. We also had no wait which was really nice considering it was still pretty busy! Would definitely recommend!

    Captains catch?
    Bill B.

    I boardered on giving a 5 here. Could have a really cool outdoor bar area but feels a little unfinished. The wait wasn't bad, as they let us do call ahead for a party of 21. I like the vibe, you were not jammed in and there was room to spread out. My one downside, was it was super hot in the restaurant. Almost uncomfortably so The drinks were good the the beer list was decent. She crab soup was good, calamari was good. All in all the food got high marks from our group.

    Seafood boil - too buttery, no flavor, shrimp overcooked
    Jillian S.

    Apart from the seafood broil, the food was excellent. However the wait time is very long (40+ min for a table and 60+ min for food) and it's hot inside. The bartender outside was rude and it took way too long to close our tab when our table was ready. Our waitress inside was great, but I think she had too many tables. We barely saw her and rarely had our waters refilled. She did offer to replenish our alcoholic drinks often enough. The ambient temperature is too warm for how long the wait is and the limited water provided. On to the food, the tuna blt was excellent. Large chunk of fresh tuna along with bacon, tomato, lettuce, and ripe avocado. Garlic cilantro fries were not great, very greasy. The krabby patty, burger, and bangin' shrimp were good. Coating on the pickle fries wasn't great, too plain. Seafood boil was all butter and no other flavor. Shrimp in the seafood boil was way overcooked. Overall, we liked the food not the experience.

    Burrito Bowl with Tuna
    Skyler G.

    This place is so cute and our waitress was very attentive! Everything on the menu sounded so delicious, it was hard to settle on just one dish. All of us really enjoyed our meals! Each entree was a TON of food - we definitely could have split something. You can for sure count on having leftovers! This place has a very friendly and cool atmosphere and would be a great place to just hang out at the bar. They also have a great drink menu with many delicious options. We will definitely be back in the future! Highly recommend!

    Cilantro garlic fries
    Amber G.

    Yall I ain't even a Philly cheesesteak person, and those Philly egg-rolls are da bomb!!!! Get them. You'll be happy you did it. Oh when you first come in they have these cool screens with all the beers listed and a picture of a keg showing you how much they have left. So cool! The ahi bites OMG, you get a TON for $13! I couldn't believe how many bites for that price. The crab dip, it was ok to me. The cilantro garlic fries- not very impressed

    Summer salad
    Dave F.

    Service was absolutely top notch, Thank You. Many choices for starters, salads, sandwiches, tacos, entrees. It wad a tuff decision to make the right choice off the menu. Wife had a proseco and loved it, i had an Old Fashion and was very good. We started with The fish spread, holy smokes it was delightful. Probably the best Ive had in OBX. We also shared the summer salad and it was spectacular, dressing was real nice. The wife had the fish n chips and was very happy it was cooked well done, maybe a bit too much breading...but had alot of fish. I had the Mahi fish tacos and there were three. They were good, maybe a little more blackened on the fish..but very good!

    Food here is amazing! Wait staff is amazing!! The outdoor area is so nice! They have live music and games plus the ambiance is so homey and chill! A definite must try when in obx!

    We came here a couple times while on vacation. This might be the most famous bar/restaurant in the…read moreOuter Banks. It's not very large, so it can get crowded. If you have to wait, there's a cool little bar outside in the back where you can order from theimited food/drink menu. There's also 2 sand volleyball courts where some serious (and not serious v-ball is played). Our 6th grade daughter is trying to get on her school volleyball team, so we brought her here to get some training with a local volleyball coach who happened to be here giving lessons. Our dogs, my wife and I just chilled out, drinking beer and mixed drinks while our daughter got some good work in for just $15 per hour. Win-win.

    We stopped by Tortuga's Lie near Nags Head during our Outer Banks vacation, and it was fantastic! I…read moreordered the fish tacos, and they were some of the best fish tacos I've ever had. The mahi was incredibly fresh, perfectly blackened, and packed with flavor. The fresh slaw and creamy sauce complemented the fish perfectly without overpowering it. The yellow rice and black beans on the side were delicious and made for a complete meal. Everything tasted fresh, and the portions were generous. The atmosphere was fun and laid-back, exactly what you'd expect from a great beach restaurant. Service was friendly, attentive, and our food came out quickly. If you're in Nags Head and looking for a great food and dining experience, Tortuga's Lie is a must-visit. The mahi-mahi fish tacos alone are worth the trip! We'll definitely be back on our next visit to the Outer Banks.
