I had the shrimp burger it was amazing! They have great crab dip appetizer! The service was great! They have a good atmosphere the outside gets an awesome view we even saw dolphin! read more

The hostess was completely uninterested in her job. We walked in and she didn't greet us or even talk. So I said "2" - she grabbed 2 menus. I asked if we could be seated outside - she just walked away towards the back so we followed. I think she was trained at Dicks Last Resort ;-) The waitress, on the other hand, was completely the opposite. Nice, attentive and professional. The food was hit or miss. We started with the crab dip. The dip wasn't bad - my husband really liked it. Said it came with toasted bread but it was untoasted white bread. Would have preferred crackers or something other than that. I wouldn't get it again. The flounder sandwich was excellent. Large, tender flounder. Fries were hot, crispy and not greasy. The shrimp melt was underwhelming. The shrimp were cooked well. The toasted hoagie was a plain, untoasted hot dog bun. Maybe they are against toasting?? The view from the back porch was amazing and the breeze was nice on a hot summer night. read more

We came here last night to have dinner since it was walking distance from our hotel. We sat outside on the patio and our server was nice and attentive. I got the chicken wrap that came with chips and salsa. Everything was pretty bland. Salsa had no flavor and the chicken states it's grilled but it was shredded chicken instead. The other people in my party said their food was bland and did not have seasoning on there seafood. It's a disappointment as seafood restaurant with the price points they charge. read more

Nice casual restaurant on water. Don't over think menu, wraps and fish/crab sandwiches are the best. My favorite is crab cake sandwich. Great painkiller too. Excellent spot to grab a beer and watch boats go by, always a lot of activity on the waterfront. Servers are generally kind and attentive. read more

Very friendly and good service. This place is filthy! Had the crab dip and couldn't find crab in it. Tasted horrible. Left to have dinner elsewhere. read more

First time eating at Finz and it won't be my last!! The service was fantastic and the food was even better. I had a shrimp bowl and the portion was very generous and delicious! It was also nice to look out at the water while we ate! read more

Second time eating here for lunch. Both times have absolutely loved the shrimp burger and fries. These shrimp are fried with a light batter and are so crispy and good. Coleslaw is sweet and I like that it is served on the side versus dumped on top of the sandwich. Comes with cocktail and tartar sauce both which are very good. Fries are also great. Husband had the mahi tacos and had it prepared blackened. Came with a mango salsa, regular salsa, and sour cream along with beans and rice. He devoured them! Decent variety of beverages to choose from. Nice outdoor seating if the weather is good and indoor seating if the weather is not. Service is attentive not obtrusive. read more

Food was great! Younger staff and a totally casual vibe. Eaten here before and love the place. Service was prompt and friendly and featured drinks were tasty. Much needed after a day of driving. Thanks read more

The food was very good, and the male server was good, but one of the workers came behind the bar, and was taking a personal call, while she was on the phone, she was not only cussing, but using a very disrespectful tone. Made my experience,very uncomfortable, and not able to enjoy my food all the way. read more

Really, this place was a joke as far as service. I am not the only one I have talked to saying the service has really started to go downhill. Hope they work on it because it is a staple in the town and the service needs to be polished up before the locals don't even go there. read more

We love to go here because they have the best fried oysters and shrimp! The service was fast and friendly. They also had fresh red snapper that day and it was delicious. One of our favorites when visiting Beaufort. read more

Great low key eatery right on the Beaufort waterfront. Staff were attentive & kind especially considering the fact that we had a less than well behaved little human with our party of 7. Sat outside on the patio & watched the boats roll in while eating the firecracker shrimp (so good), hot crab dip (also good but not amazing), & aloha burger (mango salsa on this should be on everything imho). Food was all above average & not expensive at all. Great for families. read more

Finz had the best piece of flounder I've ever had!!! The only complaint is with the hot crap dip. They plated the dip and arranged with bread pieces, and popped it in the oven for a few minutes to toast the bread. It had great potential with taste, but the bread was half toasted and the dip was cold. read more

Hey, hey this was better than expected based on other reviews! They have a great seating deck with a view of the water. Service was a little slow, but our waitress was kind. I always thought this place was a bar, but was surprised to see they have a pretty extensive menu. Lots of seafood options. The bar area is actually pretty small and closes at 8! I think the live music outside with people drinking mislead me. We had the shrimp and grits, which I would totally order again! I've had shrimp and grits a million ways and this was more of MY preferred style. More breakfast style grits with bacon and butter, added peppers and onion, tail off shrimp (I hate tail on if it's a dish I want to be stirred together) covered in a cheesy savory sauce ! I'm not convinced the grits weren't instant, but I was honestly very happy with it. We also had the fried shrimp basket which was not bad. However, for the same price we'd rather get it at another local place that we prefer. Slaw is slightly sweet and tarter sauce is homemade, but not my favorite slightly sweet also. Prob try something else next time. We'll be back im sure! read more

Excellent shrimp bowls, beautiful views, and excellent service. The crab dip appetizer should be a requirement.

The food was absolutely amazing. We went for dinner around 5:30 on a Thursday. No wait for our party of 5. We sat outside which was perfect for the kids to sit and watch the boats come in. Shrimp and grits were good but missing the spice. The pina colada was amazing. The coco loco wasn't strong at all but the description made it sound like it would be. The waitress did forget to put in our order of firecracker shrimp. She ended up giving it to us for free. Overall still one of our favorites places read more

Lovely ambiance on the water. Food was good as was the service . I loved that it was a converted gas station. It was charming.

Amazing food, excellent service! The food came quickly and the outdoor seating was comfortable. So good we stopped in twice on our vacation!

Finz = Terrible Terrible service Terrible food We didn't get silverware and napkins until we were 3/4 done with our meal, if you call it a meal. Our server was very nice but not so attentive. The only thing this place has going for them is the view, but don't get me wrong you pay for that in the food. Would I go back you ask? Absolutely most definitely not! read more

While having 16 of us together is great, it's hard to find a place that we all want and can accommodate us. Luckily, we found Finz! All of us had fantastic food and exemplary service. There was not a complaint amongst us and we have some picky eaters! I had the shrimp and grit. I don't know that I've eaten anything so satisfying! Thanks for a great meal and fun! read more

This was a nice restaurant with inside and covered waterfront seating. I sat on the water and enjoyed the views of the boats. I didn't get the name of my waitress but she was friendly and on her game. We got refills in to go cups without even asking. We were also allowed to order from the children's menu as we were not that hungry and just needed a little something. I was happy I could get a grilled cheese. I'd dine here again on my next trip to Beaufort. read more

I had crab cake and fried oyster combo. Wife had fried oyster sandwich. Mine included a dozen oysters. She believes hers had a dozen too (or close to it) . The fried oysters were probably best I ever had. They said they get fresh de-shelled oysters each morning . They bread them , and then fry when ordered. Excellent, juicy, tasty Son had chicken fingers (size more like palms- big). Daughter had chicken teriyaki rice bowl. Enormous of course, she liked it. Host sat us inside because of upcoming rain storm- luckily. Rain came down sideways, and west side of town including this restaurant lost all power. We finished eating with great team service without power - amazing Highly recommended. read more

I absolutely loved eating here the patio is beautiful the food is amazing, im seriously impressed with their menu. and the service there was great. If had to recommend any restaurant in Beaufort it's definitely Finz. read more

Super disappointed in the service. We have eaten here several times and brought our out of town guests, as we have enjoyed it in the past. Arrived at 7:10 was told it would be a 30 min wait, went to check on wait time as I saw a party of 9 walked in and was seated right away. When I questioned our wait time the hostess told me they were backed up and closed at 8 and basically turned us away after waiting for 40 min with 6 children. We were very disappointed and had to leave to find somewhere else to eat at 8pm! read more

Decided to come back since its been awhile. The fam wanted to try it. Its changed! ^_^. Busy day for them! First day they were open since covid started. Today is March 27 3:30pm. Had a 30 min wait to get outside seating. Deck seating has shade cover but a nice view of carrot island. The deck upstairs is the bar. First walking in to the restaurant / bar it smelled heavy of alcohol. But just walking through to the deck. The deck was really nice. Bathrooms were clean as well. Saw the wild horses there today! Lots of boats out and about today too. They have chocolate mint in a plater out front as well as bananas. Nice tropical waiting area. Has seats and tables. Once seated on the deck, the table was cleaned and had menus waiting. We got the black bean nachos. Mhi tuna tacos and a bacon cheeseburger. Food came out fast and was hot. On the burger condiments came on the side in packets. Everything was cooked wonderfully. Waitress suggested tuna tacos and it was good! They had computer problems with a new computer system they just changed to,but it wasn't a big deal. Waitress was attentive and nice. Very easy to talk to and understand. This isn't a super kid friendly place however. Due to the very limited kid menu, the bar and space in the building. I Would come back! My party of 3, everyone was happy! read more

I had the chicken rice bowl and firecracker shrimp. This place is nothing special. Boring food. Nothing original to eat. The rice bowl is just blah and the firecracker shrimp were cold. I won't be back read more

So we were looking forward to trying Finz. Waited to be seated for sometime. No one came. Waitress came by "someone will help you " waited some more another waitress "someone will help you". Number three waitress, same thing. Number four waitress, same. Finally a bored, disinterested hostess showed up. She said the wait will be 15 minutes. We said we were waiting there already for 15. We went somewhere else. read more

Ordered crab fritters, excellent, vodka soda, soda was flat, strawberry daiquiri average at best, chicken quesadilla awful, bartender very distracted and disappeared for a while , staff used the bar as a break room , go somewhere else read more

Well, this places employees need some serious training. Walking up there was at least 5 people standing out front smoking. The hostess was sitting at a table on her phone when we walked in and sat us. The place was definitely not busy - But we never were greeted by our waitress - So we just left after 20 minutes. There wasn't a good reason someone couldn't have grabbed waters or even acknowledged us to tell us they'd be with us. Anyways, we ended up going to Mezcalito down the street though, they were amazing! read more

Our server was so rude. We had one drink, paid and left before we even ate. Ended up at another restaurant which offered a much better experience. read more

Wanted to get drinks and appetizers so decided to try this place. Great waterfront location. Awesome view. Waitress was quick and helpful. Great price on Prosecco $5 a glass! Ordered the firecracker shrimp which was spicy but yummy. The tuna tacos were on the entree menu but got them and shared them. Great cuts of seared rare tuna in each taco. Came with more sides than I thought it would, rice and beans which were good, corn and mango salsa, pick de Gallo, sour cream , cheese and lettuce. Great to share if not super hungry, or makes a great dinner. Only problem was that the outdoor fans were not on and it was kinda hot out, and crazy amount of flies once we got our food. But still great food and service . read more

Came to the waterfront for the view and some lunch. We decided on Finz...what a mistake that was. We were promptly seated and that's were it all ends. After sitting at our outside table for 25+ mins without anyone greeting us or taking our drink order, we notice 2 other tables seated around us that were greeted quickly. We flagged down a waitress and she replied that she would "check on our server." When she came back she informed us that our "server was new" and what did we want to drink. At this point, I could here the attitude in her voice and we certainly didn't want them to spit in our food. We decided to leave. On the way out, I ask for a manager and he claimed he was the manager. I proceeded to tell him our experience at his restaurant. Then, out of the blue, comes the waitress chastising me saying I was 'rude' and they have a 'sign' (taking about their lack of help) and I should learn to read. Seriously?!? Think twice, maybe a third time before coming here! read more

Finz is a wonderful option in Beaufort, NC! Finz has a variety of seafood and non-seafood. We got the shrimp burger (with a generous portion of shrimp), French fries, and delicious cole slaw! While the burger was good, the salad stole the show! The variety of fresh vegetables surprised me and the blackened shrimp was delicious. There was no wait time and we were able to be seated water front. It was a wonderful location to watch the boats pass and enjoy some local NC seafood. read more

After walking inside we were completely ignored while staff walked right past us; finally the manager (?) or owner (?) dude came over. We asked for a table outside and he firmly and definitively says "I don't have anything outside" even though there was just one group outside and at least 10 empty tables out there. So we reluctantly sat inside and ordered. [BTW our server Tabitha was great, she gets 5 stars]. But as we're eating, about five parties (of all sizes) arrived and EVERY ONE OF THEM got seated outside. For these lucky guests, the manager dude was super accommodating. "Sure!" "Yup no problem!" as he led all of them out to nice waterfront tables. WTF? We felt completely dissed -- and that manager dude also seemed to be kind of an asshole to the servers too. I feel sorry for them having to work for him. Although the food was decent (especially the chowder) I will not return on principle. If you can't treat your customers AND your staff well, I'm not interested in giving you my money. I just hope our server got 100% of the 20% tip I left her because she was the only one who deserves praise. read more

Great little unassuming spot on the main street and overlooking the water, by way of the boat fueling area. We had the great hot crab dip, a wrap with Shrimp, black beans and sweet chili sauce, Challe chicken sandwich and a Pain Killer read more

Wonderful. My favorite fried seafood - shrimp, flounder, oysters. And an excellent shrimp burger.

I enjoyed a good shrimp dinner at Finz. A beach bar atmosphere. Nice waitress. I would go back.
