Stopped on our way out of Corolla after a beach day, we were hungry and looking for tacos, but…read morequickly. That said we walked in and I wish we'd stopped on our way in: the margaritas look real good and they advertise margs to go! Our kids each got cheese quesadillas, they came with juice and chips. We asked for a side of sour cream with each which they added. I got a burrito bowl with their house mild salsa and pulled pork. The pork was good definitely made in house (we make a similar recipe). It's a little on the salty side, but yummy. The dish was a good size (I didn't finish it) and came out fast! My husband got a brisket burrito with the mild salsa also. He liked his food and said he felt like the salsa was good and influenced how he felt about the burrito. Also, this is NC after all so they have Cheerwine on tap which is always a welcome surprise. All in all: great spot for quick Mexi-kind.

We were greeted and sat right away, they brought us the standard chips and salsa and even brought out a spicier salsa for me when I asked. Our food was done very quickly, almost too quickly, and that's probably why it wasn't 5 stars. It wasn't bad at all, the food was good, but something was missing- freshness, maybe? From order to table it was probably 7 minutes. I assume things are premade and that makes sense for things that take a while like the birria my daughter got but I was slightly disappointed with the flavor. The place is good, the environment was welcoming and we would definitely go back

My son ordered the chicken tenders, and they were very good. My husband and I both ordered the seafood platter. He ordered the tuna and substituted onion rings for the potatoes, while I ordered the mahi with the potatoes. After waiting 40 minutes, our food arrived cold and both pieces of fish were overcooked. Our waiter sent the meals back, but after another 25-minute wait, the replacement plates were still disappointing. 90% of the food was cold, and both fish were once again overcooked. At that point, I told our waiter we were done. I don't think the third time around would have been any better. The kitchen missed the mark twice, and after waiting nearly an hour for two unsuccessful attempts, we left extremely disappointed and hungry.

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!

The outdoor ordering section has a separate line for food/ drink and one for drinks alone. They made the most creative margaritas(wine based). Flavors are Pina colada, strawberry, mango and I think a couple of others. They do pack a "punch" so drink slow. There is beer in tap. Food is casual snacks like chips and salsa, quesadillas and other snacks. We tried the quesadillas and they are huge and made fresh. Staff is super friendly. They are quite busy but do attend to many hungry and thirsty customers. Kudos to them.

We were a group of 12 Grannies Gone With so we got there just before they opened at 4:30. There was already a line when we got there but we met some awesome people while we waited. It was just a short wait while they set up our 2 tables. Our server, Shea, waited on all 12 of us and did a wonderful job! We ordered the amazing hush puppies, calamari, bread basket, Fried Seafood Combo, a cup of Cream of Crab and clams. We were over stuffed and also took leftovers home. Oh, almost forgot, to start we ordered Trio of Oysters. There was nothing on our table that wasn't delicious! We would definitely return and highly recommend this wonderful place!

We also ordered 2 orders oysters not pictured that folks enjoyed. Desserts were key lime pie, ice cream sandwich or pudding. We had table of 7 and basically got a private room.
