What a great hidden gem! It reminded me like I was back in Pensacola with the vibe! We came for drinks and an appetizer and loved the calamari! It has a sweet spicy sauce that just hits with each bite! We sat at the bar and the bartenders were great! We tried the margarita flights since it's national margarita day and they don't disappoint!
What a fun place! It gives a very beach, casual vibe. Just the crab dip is worth the trip - it's AMAZING! The lobster and shrimp cavatappi pasta was also in my top 5 favorite pasta experiences! Some of the other dishes were more average, but they have some truly out of this world gems.
Great tasty food! Excellent service. They were having lobster night when I was there. They look so good. They are famous for their outlandish Bloody Mary that serve four with seafood!
What a beautiful day out after the storm, I live in Florida and I always wanted to come to this place but didn't think I'd be in North Carolina. Well, here I am visiting my best friend and she took me here. The most delicious bloody Mary's I have ever had!
I've heard great things about this place and decided to try it for myself. WOW! The experience was fun and the food was awesome. I will definitely be here again soon.
