They are served hot and fresh. It is a perfect portion for a not so huge lunch. We have eaten decent seafood at O'Neal's Sea Harvest in the past and decided we should try the other place. Besides, the Marina is a nicer atmosphere and recently O'Neals has been getting some less than stellar reviews due their customer treatment. On one visit I went against better judgement and ordered a barbecue sandwich at a place that is not a barbecue joint. It was very good. They have a surprising menu beyond the expected seafood baskets. . They do have great, fresh seafood, but if you have someone in your group who prefers something else, there are very good-looking burgers and other sandwiches and even pizza. This is a nice outing for lunch. We will continue to bring guests and make a tour of Wanchese to see the working fishing industry. It's not something we see in St Louis.

We visited O'Neal about six year ago and liked it. Then we started going to Wanchese Marina and…read moretook guests there because we liked the food and the atmosphere. On this occasion, we walked around the Christmas Market at the Wanchese Community Center and had our lunch at O'Neal to end a six-year hiatus. We again had good seafood. Ms T had good, fresh and flavorful fried shrimp I had the catch of the day; Red Drum. We accepted the included coleslaw, and we both added fries. This was a good lunch. The seafood remained as good as before and the slaw is some of the better such around. They know how to give it a good sweet-sour balance. It was also fresh, not old and soggy as happens too many times. We also shared a cup of their crab soup that was not something we would ever order again. It is pasty, over-thickened with flour and almost totally unseasoned. We would prefer a creamy soup, that is thickened with cream. We added some salt, and it helped, but it was still wallpaper paste. There is really no saving this, they need to start over and lose the flour. We also felt the food was a little over-priced for what we got. I realize the days of getting a fresh seafood basket for $6 are far behind us, but over $50 for two baskets and one cup of soup is a little steep, especially when we both drank water. Ms T said she would prefer to return to Wanchese. The food is good here, but you have been warned about the crab soup and the prices.

The restaurant is also great. Very limited menu, but don't let that stop you, everything is prepared perfectly. I had some amazing fried red drum, and their coleslaw is maybe the best I've ever had. Fried seafood is lightly and perfectly breaded. Highly recommended!

We dined here for lunch and there was a line almost out the front door at 12:45pm. You place your order and pay at the counter then get your beverage and then find a seat and someone will bring out your order. The order number is on the receipt so hang onto it at least until your order arrives. In spite of how busy the restaurant was, we managed to find an open table inside. There are also some tables outside in back. It was a bit chilly when we were there so we stayed in. One of the daily specials was the club which I ordered on rye with potato salad.

In looking at photos, perhaps there's another whole section of the restaurant? I ordered a chipotle chicken sandwich which was on a nicely crisped ciabatta roll with deli chicken, a couple slices of bacon, some Chipotle mayo, lettuce and pepper jack. It was approx $12 after a small tip and tax. The sandwich was tasty and a good size, though I wouldn't say it was especially stacked with meat. I was expecting a chicken filet and was surprised when it was just deli meat, but it tasted good nonetheless. It was big enough to take home half of it. It also came with a few ruffles chips. I sat outside at one of the tables and enjoyed the nice little area of town. Very nice little spot if you're passing through.
