    The right place at the right time sometimes overrides all other choices. Caribsea just happened to fit that situation, and I was not disappointed! Reservations recommended but not required... though, we visited in the off season for the coast and even early dinner was busier than expected. The location and entrance is a little deceiving until you realize it is not only inside the hotel, but also up on the third floor. That lends itself to a nice view of the sound side, and an intimate setting. I was there with a friend and we were looking for something light with preparing for a long day of bike racing the next morning. I chose the shrimp-n-grits, and was absolutely impressed with the depth of flavors the kitchen was able to achieve in the dish. The grits were creamy, with just the right texture, and savory, while complementing the slight saltiness of the bacon and butter, with the sweetness of the shrimp. All in all, an extremely pleasant culinary experience!

    Crab cake entree- I was impressed with their crab cakes  *Special of the night*- Some kind of Grouper madness but so yummy!

    Caribsea has never failed us on a "date night". Food is always spectacular, friendly service, and the torpedo lounge up on a small roof top is nice. We typically like to eat our dinner on the roof top every time the weather is just right.

    We visited this restaurant while on vacation in Emerald Isle. Little did we know when visiting everything in the area food wise is pretty much closed between Mon-Wed which left us with very limited options. We looked up reviews for this place on yelp and saw mixed reviews but we had hope. We gave Caribsea a chance and we are SO glad we did. We are foodies (from Buffalo Ny) so we love our food and can say our dinner here was AMAZING! It was so fresh. My husband got the sushi to start which was great. The simple salad was incredible. Simple but so good. For dinner we tried the shrimp and grits and it was so flavorful. The shrimp scampi was also great. Lots of shrimp came with it. Highly recommend coming here. It has lots of mixed reviews but it was the best meal we had in Emerald Isle all week! Great sunset views. Jessica the server was great.

    We sat on the rooftop deck as you didn't need reservations for that (which is awesome) there was live music and full menu service. We shared an app that was honestly the best part. Our meals were good but nothing special, per se and the dessert was also pretty good!

    On Emerald Isle in an office building looking type place is where you'll find this incredible restaurant. Take the elevator to the 3rd floor where you will meet the friendly staff. One part is a little more casual and the other area was a little more elegant. The food was soooo good. We started with the simple salad that had fried goat cheese cake on it. That goat cheese cake was excellent and made the salad. We also had the shrimp and grits (try not to lick the plate) and the mahi mahi with red curry curry & lemongrass-coconut milk, zucchini & yellow squash, creamy polenta. It's a must try when in Morehead City area.

    Drew = LEGEND. If…read moreyou're anywhere near Emerald Isle and you're not doing a seafood boil with Outer Banks Boil Company, you're doing vacation wrong. And if you're lucky enough to get Drew running your boil? Prepare for one of the best dining experiences of your life. Drew isn't just a cook -- the man is a full-blown experience curator. From the second he rolled up, you could tell this guy knew exactly what he was doing. Cool, confident, professional -- and hilarious. He had our whole group laughing and hyped up before the food even hit the pot. The setup was smooth, the boil was perfection (every Lobster tail, shrimp, crab leg, scallop, sausage, potato, and ear of corn cooked to absolute glory), and Drew walked us through the whole thing like a seafood sommelier meets Southern host with a side of Top Gun energy. Seriously, dude was a boss. What made it even better? He treated us like family. You could tell he loves what he does and takes pride in making sure your night is unforgettable. He nailed it. 10/10 experience Food was insane Vibe was top tier Drew made it all happen Thanks Drew -- you turned a great meal into a core memory. Can't wait to come back!

    If you're in Corolla, you've got to get some seafood from the OBBC! We love that we can call day of…read moresince we end up staying later at the beach than we plan... Great portions per person and plenty of sides and options to make for the family. Service was so friendly and they give you awesome boil pots to keep. You can even add in a table cloth to keep your boil just the right amount of messy.
