The chimichanga.
Erik B.

Been in Morehead City four nights and tonight we had the best meal of the trip at Tower 7. Our server, Grace, was friendly and welcoming. The bar service was a bit slow as there was only one bartender but the cocktails were on point. The painkiller was perfectly prepared and delicious. The house salsa was perfect and brought some heat and good flavor. All four people in the party cleaned their plates and there was no room for desert. If we lived here we'd be regulars. Give it a try.

The waitress was great! The atmosphere was relaxed. We dined outside. The food was delicious!

Looking for somewhere to enjoy the beautiful weather & have lunch in Morehead City & came across Tower 7. We were seated on nice outside patio w/umbrellas & were served chips & salsa. We ordered some guacamole which was quite good. We decided it was a taco day so we tried the Mahi tacos & Birria tacos, both served w/choice of rice or beans on the side. Service was fast, tacos were delicious. We would come back.

The table behind us sat dirty the entire time we ate and was empty even before we arrive so was not bussed for at least 45 minutes, which is ridiculous seeing how we had a wait for table. Drinks did not arrive until after the food was already eaten, waitress did not have knowledge of menu. I left my phone and went back to get it a few minutes after leaving- our table and the one behind still not cleaned, plus another one where people had left sitting dirty. Really poor experience to want to eat lunch on the water but end up staring at half eaten food the entire time.

Cantinarita!

First off the Cantinarita is the best Margarita in Carteret County. That was a great sipper but be careful! You might want several. I had the Tacos In A Beach Towel,and my dining companions got a Fajita Burrito and an ACP. The Salsa and Queso were on point. They have done a great job at this location, right on the waterfront.

The service and food was amazing, extremely fast service and seemed like a confident staff.

Tower 7 Chicken Burrito.

You can't beat the waterfront outdoor dining location of Tower 7! A great place to enjoy a beautiful day and their excellent Mexican fare. The Tower 7 Burrito is a sizable sucker so either be hungry, plan to share, or get a box. The Pineapple Enchiladas were a big hit with our group as was the Taco Salad. Service is very friendly and prompt. Overall, I can't imagine a better place to enjoy the waterfront and a great Mexican meal.

Dinner and an appetizer.

We found these guys on the internet and were looking for a good place for dinner. Menu sounded great and wow, we were very pleased with our choice. Salsa was great. Chips were fresh and just the way we like the. The food was amazing. Maybe the best I have had since I left Texas and moved back to NC. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Morehead City, NC.

My experience here was nothing short of exemplary. I will add that I got there only a little while after opening, around 11:15. But I left before noon with a full belly of incredible shrimp tacos and a margarita. They were fast, nice, and checked in me several times even as they got full. I will definitely be returning! (Photo is a bit blurry so my tacos kinda look mushy but I assure you they were perfect!)

My lunch, exactly as I received the plate. They're kidding, right?
Felice B.

One star because the chips were warm and the app won't let me give zero or negative numbers. Every other one star review here? Believe every word of them. I did believe but to my regret I had no input in choosing the restaurant. The burrito seemed one of the less objectionable choices. It took 3 tries for the server to hear me say "pulled chicken." I might as well have said "soggy shredded cardboard" as that likely would have had more flavor. No seasoning whatsoever, not even salt. Same with the black beans - completely unseasoned in any form. According to the menu, this burrito should have included tomatoes and shredded cheese. It didn't. So what I got was the unappetizing mess you see below. I knew it was going to be bad when the server said the food would be out "very quickly." Sure. How long does it take to open a few cans, grab huge handfuls of pre-shredded lettuce, forget some of the ingredients, and fling them on an empty plate? I left most of it and nobody noticed or cared. In general, the service was stunningly indifferent. Also rather telling was the server's response when asked for a recommendation between 2 fish dishes. "I've never had them. We're not allowed to order those." Good job, management. The decor is identical to its previous incarnation as the Ruddy Duck. I'm thinking that was a good call on the owner's part. Less investment to lose when the place closes.

I'll start with 1 star because it can't get any lower. I don't often do reviews but today has…read morechanged that. Stay and read, it will be to your benefit. I apologize for the length. We sat roughly between 5:45-6pm today. Not very busy but a large table was ahead of us (10-12 people) that were waiting on food. Initially we ordered cheese dip, dr.pepper and a water. All was fine. Then when I got my first water refill, it came back as starry, did not think much of it and maybe the server got mixed up with another's. No big deal at that time. Then we ordered food, it arrived approx 45 min later. While waiting for food, we had 2 baskets of chips and give or take 10-12 salsas brought to us, not all were eaten but the server never informed us of a possible delay. Just put more salsa out than people sitting which seemed odd. The item I ordered was a quesadilla fajita supreme. Now everywhere else I've been it's been meat, cheese and bell peppers/ onions. My own fault for not reading all the way because this one was meat cheese and mushrooms, again my own fault but definitely not a fajita quesadilla if I've seen one. The server. Very minimal English, especially in a tourist town. No words the whole night until it was time to collect his money. He threw food down and did not say much ever and kinda wandered around (not very big floor space so a lot of pacing). Time for the check. Now initially it was supposed to be water, dr.pepper, queso, fajita quesadilla supreme, and a chicken quesadilla. Well since the server thought to bring me a starry instead of water, I now was charged an additional $4.47 because he wanted to charge higher? I don't know but this sucked a lot. I see why there hasn't been reviews in a good bit, if you're on vacation or even live here, DONT GO. oh and this whole cash vs credit card price, like I get there's a credit card fee but just charge one price. I don't always have cash on me but it's part of business. I don't see dicks sporting goods offering discounts because I pay cash. I don't know just weird stuff and awful experience.

First time here for me, but my daughter who was visiting out of town said she had been here before…read morewhen younger. She wanted Mexican being from California and said let's go. I have to give Alvaro five stars. He was funny and paid attention to us but did not hover over us. Appitizer- Stuffed jalapenos $5.25- do not get them. The breading was not right. It fell off the jalapeno and was also doughy. Very disappointed. Mixed Fajitas $13.45- it was bland and got cold quickly. Had one fajitas and the meat was cold. We took it home and doctored it up and had it for lunch the next day. The size it large and plentiful. The chips and salsa were better than other Mexican places we have been to. The bathroom was clean and the restaurant was comfortable. I probably would not go back unless I wanted a drink and to say to Alvaro so he could make us laugh again. 12/18/21 evening
