    The Silos restaurant is one of the largest and most unique dining establishments in Oriental NC, especially based on the fact it was created from 2 silos. This place bares a strong resemblance to a hunting cabin, with a solid wood interior and wooden furniture throughout. You definitely can't help but feel that small town vibe, while watching the hustling and bustling staff bring you the wonderful service they provide so well. It's a clamorous environment. Unfortunately, not every entree leaves a very good first impression and the staff know which ones they are so be sure to ask. The ravioli may come with a homemade marinara sauce, which I am still on the fence about, but the ravioli itself is far from homemade. Lacking any character and cold in the center, this was not the entree for me. They did however have a good manicotti that I was able to sample, and that dish was not served cold. Cheers!

    Interior

    My parents have a beach house in Oriental. I've driven by Silos many times, but this was my first time giving it a go. First, I love its unique and true to name architectural design. I mean it is literally two silos with a little main entry building in-between. We called in our order and took it to go, but enjoyed looking at the interior while waiting to pay. It was simple and causal with records, guitars, and other musical memorabilia covering all the walls and some ceilings. Looked like a chill place to enjoy some pizza and beers, I will return to dine in on a future visit to Oriental. We ordered some of the bruschetta (French bread slices, Parmesan cheese, fresh tomato, basil, balsamic glaze) as a appetizer. The French bread was nice with mix of soft and crispy texture and I liked their balsamic glaze. We also shared a Caesar salad (Fresh Romaine, shredded Parmesan, croutons) it's as pretty basic, but filled the need for some roughage. For pizzas we got the Veggie Pizza (Onions, green peppers, mushrooms, olives, tomato, garlic) and the White Pizza (Parmesan sauce, garlic, basil, tomato, Mozzarella and Provolone cheese) both in Large pizza size. Each had 8 nice sized slices and felt the both pizzas were nicely prepared. The crust was bubbling and pillowy, which I was very happy with as I prefer a softer crust. But the pizza slices still had some structure when you pick them up to eat them. The veggie had lots of toppings and loved the Parmesan sauce on the white pizza. Both were good, but I'd give the slight edge to the White pizza. You can always tell which was the favorite of the group as it goes first when going for next day leftovers- it was the White pizza for sure. They were out of the dessert we wanted, but happily settled for the Cinnamon dough bites. Wasn't a huge order, but enough for us each to have a couple bite sized sweets after all the savory goodness. The dough was warm and soft and had a nice balance of cinnamon and glaze. Stills. Bit sweet for me overall for me, but I'll always pick another slice of pizza over a dessert generally. Others in my party liked them. I tend to cook or go for fresh fish when in the area, but always good to know there is a solid pizza option near by. I will be back at Silos for sure

    My wife and I stopped in here for the first time. We had heard some good things about this place so we wanted to give it a go. We started off with the side salads, creamy Italian for her and blue cheese for me. The dressings were very good and some are made in house. As for the main courses, the bride chose the shrimp with lobster sauce over linguine while my pick was the shrimp Diablo. The portions were huge and served very hot as well. We also were given homemade breadsticks, which were fantastic! We ended up taking some food home with us as it was too much to eat all at once. We also got a pepperoni pizza to take home with us so we could give that a try. The reviews for the pizza have been great! We definitely will be back!

    We lucked out and stumbled upon this place as we drive into town. We didn't have to wait, to our surprise, but I think that was more lunch than anything else. We both ordered the steaks, a different one each. Came with a salad which was really the only disappointment. Limp lettuce and other veggies that had sat on the plate for a little too long. My "worlds greatest" steak was perfectly cooked. The sauce, shrimp and Cajun sliced potatoes all come together for a stellar meal for around $25. Nice ambiance and good service. Hannah was great. I feel for the wait staff, the kitchen is downstairs and the dining room is up. They hustled all evening. If the owner is reading, I met your friend Charles today with the MG and I think you passed us with your MGB.

I ordered a clam chowder and a burger w/ sweet potato fries. As someone who lives in New England I am happy to say this is a delicious chowder. To my liking; a thick broth and the right amount of fixings of clams, potatoes, and other ingredients. I would recommend not using the saltine crackers, not needed. Ordered my burger rare and it came out as I ordered it. Sweet potato fries were good too. We ordered a key lime pie for the table and was very good! For one of two restaurants in town I would recommend making reservations to be on the safe side.

It's super casual inside, with local artwork for sale on the walls. Local hangout with a nice little bar . Parking can be tricky, but you can find some around the building. There are not many places to eat in Oriental so I'm glad this one has gotten so much better!

I have been craving fried soft shell crab for weeks and finally had the opportunity to enjoy some! If you don't appreciate them, you don't know what you're missing! I decided to add the premium side Crab Tots ($1.99 when added to the meal). I'd never had them before and will definitely order them again! All of my meal items were served fresh and hot!! Everyone in our group cleaned their plates, so you know the quality and quantity of the food was outstanding! On my way out, I spotted the owner Trey sitting at a booth enjoying his lunch. I didn't want to disturb him, so I offered my compliments to the cashier. As I was telling them how much we appreciated the exceptional food and service, Trey got up from his meal and walked over to thank me for coming in. He is a true gentleman and wonderful servant of our community! If you haven't already given them a try, drop by the Front Street Fish Co for lunch or dinner.

I have to say, this "chowder" was the worst I've ever had and it's not even close. It tasted, and looked, straight out of a Campbell's soup can. It had hardly no clams and maybe two tiny potato bits. The base tasted just like cream of chicken soup and it was the same consistancy. I even checked with the girl at the front counter to make sure I got the right soup because it was not even close to being a chowder. Even though I didn't like the soup, no one offered to reimburse me for it. All of the other food was ok with the fried shrimp being the best. The whiting and okra both tasted a little like they were fried in old grease.
