The calamari came out hot and tasted so good with the Cajun remoulade to dip in. We also had the special lamb lollipops which were cooked to a perfect medium and were seasoned perfectly. The chopped wedge salad was massive and great to share with another person. The seafood corn chowder is packed with all different kinds of seafood and makes a nice thick chowder. The shrimp and grits is one of the best shrimp and grits I've had. The tomato sauce is full of so much flavor with the large tomato chunks adding some nice texture to the dish. The grits are fried into cakes that have that crispy outside and smooth grits on the inside. On the specials we had the fried soft shell crab. While the crab had a nice light batter the crab shell isn't great but was made up with the lemon remoulade on top. The vegetables were under seasoned lacking salt and any other seasoning. The whole fried fish did stand out as a great dish with the fish cut into large strips, the light fry, and the Cajun remoulade to add some flavor to dip in. For dessert we had the special chocolate mousse cake which was delicious but nothing too special. Overall every item was good and our server was wonderful and I will plan on coming back whenever I'm in the OBX.

Upon arrival the restaurant was very clean and wonderfully decorated. The place was completely empty (it was a Thursday evening). We asked for a beer but they claimed they had no ABC license. We ordered food but sadly there were very few authentic Dominican items and it was mostly bar food. We got calamari and a shrimp basket. It looked like they cooked the food and then sprinkled some bread crumbs on top. It was also over priced. Really disappointed in this place.

Quite possibly the worst food I've ever been served ranging from unseasoned food to horrific…read moreingredients combinations to even fish that went bad. We ordered the seafood platter deep fried which ended up being a mess. The shrimp were chewy and there was barely anything of any item. Nothing was seasoned and the crab cake while full of crab was dry. The shellfish trio was the best item ordered that had plenty of scallops, shrimp, and crab meat. The pesto cream sauce was serviceable but the dish is average at best. We had two different daily specials, the mojo yellowfin tuna and the Parmesan crusted triggerfish. The mojo yellowfin tuna was cooked well enough, with it being mostly raw in the center, but lacked really any flavor and a tad bit overcooked on one side. It was served over some rice, beans, and a fruit salad. Off combination and not great. There was a side of what tasted like boiled unseasoned zucchini/squash. Abysmal side and a terrible dish, but not even the worst dish. The Parmesan encrusted triggerfish was the worst dish I've ever been served. The dish even from its conception is poorly designed as it has way too much Parmesan. Usually for a Parmesan encrusted dish there would be about an 80/20 split of breadcrumbs to Parmesan, however this dish was almost all Parmesan likely 10/90 of breadcrumbs to Parmesan. The overwhelming flavor of Parmesan was the only thing you can taste and totally masked the triggerfish. The worst part was while half of the fish was fine the other half had something terribly wrong with it. Instead of being flakey the other half was rubbery and chewy and tasted nothing like fish. This rancid half could barely be cut with a knife and made us sick. This was also served with a side of unseasoned squash just to make it even worse. The strawberry rhubarb pie and chocolate pecan pie were both fine but didn't amaze. With everything being so terrible food wise the restaurant is even worse with every entree being over $30 and the acoustics were terrible. The whole place is so loud when it's a full house and you have to scream to talk to someone at your table. The prices present a high quality meal but I wouldn't even pay fast food prices.

I would say from my experience if you want to eat outside get there early and eat a snack before you go. And be patient with the bar staff for they are working hard to serve everyone! But the music was great and an awesome view! Three of us ordered the filet with blackened scallops, roasted potatoes and vegetables. The steaks were cooked per request and scallops were amazing. My husband had the blue burger and enjoyed it very much. Special shout out to our waiter, Elizabeth, she did an awesome job waiting on our crew!

The view and relaxing back deck is the only reason I'm giving this place 2 stars. It took a little longer for our waitress to great us from the start. They looked a little under staff so I get it. We ordered our food and drinks together because we figured better to speed up the process. She screwed up the drink order bringing an iced tea instead of a Chardonnay. Ok minor mistake. Then our food came out and my shrimp and grits did not have the sausage in it like the menu said. The grits were on the thinker side. Overall not bad but I wanted the sausage in it since that's the reason I got it. My wife ordered potstickers and she crab soup. The potstickers came out with no soy sauce or anything. So she ate them dry because the soy sauce never came out after we requested it. She also didn't get to try the she crab soup because the waitress spilled it brining it out. Our friend ordered the Tuna and liked it. Would recommended it. Our other friend order the crab Mac & Cheese and she crab soup. She loved the crab Mac & Cheeee! However, the waitress forgot the she crab soup so again she cannot say one way or the other if it's good. This the first time Yelp steered me wrong. This is not a 4 star restaurant until they get all the kinks worked out. Not sure I'd be willing to try them again.

I had the stuffed flounder with green beans and loaded potato. Huge plate. Definitely shareable but my hubs doesn't do seafood. He had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich with a side of loaded fries.
