    Garlic shrimp and lobster noodles
    Tonya D.

    We decided to check out the restaurant while staying in Corolla. What a pleasant experience. While waiting to be seated we had a conversation with a couple who raved about the food which made us excited. We decided on an inside table and got seated at a window with a water view. Our server Kimberly arrived and was friendly and very helpful with food recommendations. I tried the firecracker shrimp rolls and the garlic shrimp and lobster noodles. The servings were plentiful and everything was flavorful and delicious.

    Meet Wilson, the castaway, coconut drink! And you get to keep the coconut it's also a bank absolutely delicious!

    Love this place waited two years to get back to it! The food is amazing. Everything is fresh. The staff is super friendly and sweet. Even the drinks are fantastic. The oysters are super clean and fresh had the mahi grilled sandwich and it was amazing! Definitely a must stop. Our Server) angel was amazing. Love her.

    Sunset has a great sound side view and dock area in OBX. They have a lot of fun drinks with cups that you're able to keep. The food varied, the Brussels sprouts weren't as cooked as we would've liked but the cheese curds and sauce were very good. As for entrees, the pasta and mahi were a hit.

    This multi-level spot was on the bay with a tiki bar and lively views. The menu had a Caribbean fare to it for the most part. The service was appreciated, and the food came out promptly. For an appetizer, the Brussel sprouts ($11?) were ordered. They came with a sautéed brown butter, balsamic vinegar, garlic, toasted pine nuts, and parmesan. These were alright. I liked the mix of flavors, mostly the toasted pine nuts and balsamic, but they were not cooked enough. They needed to be a tad crispier. For an entrée, I had the Bayou Cajun redfish ($32?). It came with shrimp, Cajun cream sauce, Pico de Gallo, black beans, and rice. This was a hearty dish. There was a ton of rice and beans that had good flavor with a large red fish filet too. The seasoning and sauce were alright. I thought the sauce needed more of a Cajun flavor to it. I also tried a special that was being offered the night I attended. It was a seafood trio. It consisted of crab meat, scallops, and shrimp with broccolini. It was cooked in a light butter sauce. This was simple and done right. Will I go back? Probably.

    Popped in around 2 on a Wednesday, pretty empty. Service from David was pretty solid, food was good, and the ambiance is great. Just can get hot out on the deck. We actually went back for dinner and it was great. The crab soup is pictured below. Drinks are very fun and add a cool twist with the souvenir cups. We got 5 of them.

    The only meal I got a pic of: Tropical Bowl with chicken added. (We ordered with shrimp, but chicken is what we received.)

    We enjoyed a delicious dinner and dessert on the deck just before sunset, then walked down the dock to watch the sun slip away. It was lovely. Staff were friendly and accommodating.

    The food was so good and it was worth every penny I got the tropical bowl and practically licked my plate clean. If you're ever around here please go for a big eat.

    What time should 10 of us go to make sure we get a seat?

    We arrived just before 6 and were initially told an hour and a half wait. So if you can get there before 5:30, I think you won't have a long wait. We lucked out cause we ended up waiting less than 30 minutes for a table.

    Can you order take out?

    Yes

I started with a quite interesting drink because I was intrigue when I read "goat cheese vodka".... Goat cheese vodka, strawberry syrup, blanco vermouth... very tasty! You would never know it's goat cheese vodka, just made it taste creamy and smooth. I'd definitely get it again. For an app we had the fried gnocchis which were tasty, but I guess I wished the portion was slightly bigger because it was so good! Our meals were huge though so we left there quite stuffed. My husband had the wild boar special with mushroom and English pea risotto and it was good! I had the shrimp and grits with gravy on top. It was pretty good but not something out-of-this-world. Plus It was such a hot day that I was sweating by the end of it I would order something different if I went back. Our bartender was super friendly and talkative, he knew his stuff. Between my husband and I, we had 3 cocktails, a glass of wine, an appetizer and 2 entrees and our meal came to about $180 with tip. All in all, a good meal!

The location is very convenient to a variety of shops and a great way to kill some time before a 4PM rental check-in. The chips and salsa, chips and queso, and margaritas are all favorites of our family. The food comes out quickly and is always delicious. The staff is always quick to help fix any issues that arise and they are kind and knowledgeable. The sound side dining is nice and perfect with a breeze. The only negative is that it can get quite hot, which is obviously no fault of the restaurant. Always a great to-go option if the heat is too much to dine in. Also to note is that they have a great selection of beers. This is a family tradition we love coming back to each year and will continue to for years to come!
