Thought we wanted grouper but tried Tile fish at the recommendation of the gentleman behind the counter and now can't wait to eat it again. The fish was fresh, shrimp were sweet and briny.

What can I say about Harbor House Seafood?…read more First of all, The location is quaint and delightful. I enjoyed looking at all the succulents you had potted on the side of the building. Such beautiful plants! We ordered a bunch of steamed seafood for a family gathering and yall did not disappoint. From the moment we pulled up your warmth and hospitality were truly amazing. It was really hot out and our food wants quite ready yet.... You offered us some nice cool ice water which was so nice. You won us over with your kindness. We chilled on the front porch sipping our water and watching the kitty relax in the shade. Once our food was ready you brought it out on a cart and we loaded it up excited to eat some seafood. Everything was incredible. So fresh and perfectly cooked. We enjoyed it immensely. Not a bite of seafood was left. lol Next family trip to hatteras we will definitely order again!

Sunrise offers perfectly fresh local fish and frozen ones too. I took home a hunk of tuna, sea bass and shrimps.

Seagulls, unfortunately, have great taste in seafood. That's not necessarily surprising, but it is…read moreannoying. I say that because it is a tradition in our family to bring a couple pounds of boiled shrimp to the beach. I defy you to name a better beach snack. The only complication is that the gulls feel the same and are not dissuaded by copious Old Bay. I have enough siblings though that I am comfortable eating with one hand and 'shooing' with the other. Anyway, all that is to say that Surf's Up is a great place to pick up seafood for a low country boil. And FYI, the friendly staff will boil it up for you. Or you could go the DIY route and buy the uncooked stuff. I've seen people load up coolers to transport for the long ride back home. That's genius behavior, because the stuff from here is as fresh and delicious as it gets.

It was our first time trying something like this and the staff were incredibly helpful with instructions, tools needed, etc. Even threw in butcher paper to cover our table at home which was an awesome touch. Next night we went back and got some fresh fish filets to cook at home which were fresh and delicious. As other reviews have said, there are a lot of places like this in OBX but I would keep going back to this one!

See, my nephew's name is spelt this way. Not the typical most people spell Conner. We joked that we needed to drop him off or he'd be late for work. When we walked in here, it had that old time feel. More narrow than wide, but completely stocked with your needs, and then some. They even had a few items that were unique to them. They do have a small souvenir section that you can pick up a few things. My nephew got a magnet that bares his name. We spoke to the staff here and told them that his name is identical to the stores and they told us we weren't the first people in here that week with the same story. They also said that the magnets, little grocery bags with product in them, are made by an employee of the store. Such a great place to stop.

If you're looking at the five star review, you have to understand that I read Pops raw bar for what…read moreit is: an amazing hole in the wall food place that serves fresh seafood and great raw oysters. That being said, the price is reasonable and the drinks are decent. We arrived early because we thought maybe we would beat the crowd but no such luck. At 5 o'clock the main dining area inside was full and humming along. Luckily, they have some outdoor picnic tables on the front porch. It'd be nice to have some fans out there to keep the bugs away, but they weren't unbearable. No mosquitoes mostly flies. We ordered crab legs, oysters, peel and eat shrimp, and scallops. The hush puppies were outstanding the food arrived quickly and hot. If you're looking for a traditional seafood sauce or cocktail sauce, be prepared: there's more horseradish than ketchup in their cocktail sauce. I added a little bit more ketchup to mine, but boy was it good and it made me sweat! It was clear our Server was very busy, but that did not mean we weren't attended to with frequent check-in. It makes me sad that I waited so long to come to Pop's Raw Bar, but I am a fan and I will be back.

Waitress was friendly. We ate on the picnic table outside. We were told there were specials and we could go look at the sign inside to see and take a picture but it was "too much" for them to have to tell us. This is the kind of place you could probably go without kids and get good food quick if you had a small number in your party. If you're looking for a nicer place, I would recommend the Mad Crabber. Crab cake was better at Pops though. However the food was great at both places.

The restaurant itself is not a sit down place, rather a place your order and go for it. Perfect tiny little placed packed with charm and flavor! Or did I mention the portions?

Everything was incredibly fresh. The tuna was so good, I seared it as soon as I got back to the house. My son and I devoured a pound and a half like it was nothing. The shrimp were just as delicious, and the shrimp salad was the perfect beachside snack. Can't wait to go back--I may have just found a gem.
