Oysters
Jake N.

Love all the food here. Having had dungeoness, snow, and blue crab, they are all unique and delicious. Everything I've had before is still great like the fried shrimp and oysters, and especially the hush puppies. The blue crab nachos are something new I've had and are amazing. The chips are crisp and thick with plenty of cheese and crab. Something I will be getting again. The fried flounder fillet is cooked well but lacking seasoning, and really needs to have some sauce for it to not be too dry or flavorless. Great place that is a must do in OBX.

Steamed scallops and shrimp with hush puppies.

This place is a really neat, hidden gem. It kind of gave me the vibe that only locals would know about it. We ordered blue crab nachos, dozen raw oysters, steamed scallops, steamed shrimp, crab cake sandwich and our kids got the fried fish and tenders. The hush puppies were excellent! Shrimp seasoned awesome! Some of the best shrimp I've had at a restaurant! Our server, Miss Olivia, was very kind and attentive to our needs! A member of the kitchen staff even showed our children one of the live blue crabs on our way out the door. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone interested in great seafood!

People should know more about this business's owners wife and who she is. Olivia has been notorious on Bells Island for being a busybody, chatty Cathy, and for her downright obnoxious behavior that has now landed her in trouble for running her mouth a little too much. Any potential customers should know exactly what kind of person she is and who they're supporting. This yappy little girl has always had something to say and now she is finally getting hers. The crabs here might be okay but Miss Olivia is the biggest crab of them all! I'd steer clear of this place to avoid her motor mouth and nasty personality.

Fried shrimp and fries

The food is wonderfully fresh and perfectly seasoned, and the service truly stands out. The ambiance invites you to relax and eagerly await your plate! I was excited to explore the local food scene after researching the area. Although I heard the tacos were fantastic, my experience this time was different. I tried the hush puppies topped with sugar butter, and I later enjoyed them with a cracker--thanks to the waitress for the tip. Watching them open oysters so quickly was a delight, and it's no surprise that locals rave about them. Every visit definitely includes a stop here--because the food is simply amazing!

We weren't sure what to expect when pulling up to the place, but once we entered it was evident this place has a really great atmosphere and feel to it. Bar style seating throughout most of the place and a couple large tables but the mirror running length of bar gives it a unique touch to see everything that's going on. Servers were super friendly and very attentive. Crab was good and very comparable to restaurants we had eaten at throughout the week. The edamame peas were amazing! One of the best we have had and the portions were plentiful.

Hush puppies with a great brown butter dipping sauce

Although this place has Mostly bar type seating with a few tables, the place is comfortable. There is a row of bar stools facing the back wall, but in a cool twist, the restaurant has a mirror the runs the length of the entire wall that allows those sitting on these chairs to see everything that is going on, instead of looking blankly into a dead space. Service was friendly and helpful. I started with a cup of oyster stew. The broth was very good with a unique spice i could not put my finger on. The stew was also loaded with Oysters. I also had 2 tacos, the 1st one was fired founder and the other was fried scallops. Both had shredded cabbage and an outstanding mango salsa. While I like the scallops better, the fish was massive and cooked perfectly. The wife ordered soft shells after the server told us they were fresh which I thought was odd as they normally are not in season until March. Regardless she enjoyed them very much. The wife also had to try the Steamed potatoes. Steamed potatoes must be an OBX thing as outside a seafood boil we never really seen them served on their own yet but almost all restaurants seem to serve them. Again another part of her meal she enjoyed. Finally the wife had a side order of hush puppies which came with an amazing dipping sauce which seemed to be a cross between a browned butter sauce and candied apple. Trust me you need to try this.

Blue crab nachos!
Beth T.

Loved this place. The Blue crab nachos I will be dreaming about for years to come. Wait staff is friendly and kept our sweet tea full! They only have counter seating, but it is worth it!

Crab stuffed mushrooms

Great service and friendly staff, quick service and delicious food! The staff are moving at such a quick pace but they still remember to refill your drink and check up on you :).

Soft crab sandwich
Will C.

I tool a trip to the OBX and i was looking for some good seafood at first I was hesitant, there are many seafood restaurants around in the area but not all have a good food, however this place didn't disappointed me. I got a soft crab sandwich and was very delicious and good size, i had some steam potatoes and they were very well seasoned, my friend got some crab legs and fried crab with cheese broccoli, that was her first time trying both and she was very satisfied. ( i want to thank you to the waitress unfortunately i forgot her name but she was very helpful, she helped my friend and explained to her how to eat and extract the meat from the crab she was so patient). Definitely this is a place that i would recommend.

What are the individual market prices for the local blue crabs for all of the sizing from Regular to Large?

I suggest calling them for the answer as sizes offered and availability from day to day can vary due to weather and the season.

Love this place.. one of the best burger places in town there's only one other place that even…read morecomes close and though they're just as tasty, 2 Roads has much better prices. I got the hangover burger it was amazing and I definitely recommend the 2 Roads sauce for the burger and fries or onion rings it's some good stuff.. my wife ordered the Brie Me Burger which was also outstanding, perfect combo of Brie and balsamic glaze and their burgers are high quality as well! I went in on a VERY BUSY day and received top notch service right from the get go! The hostess was super polite and respectful despite being obviously extremely busy, we were asking about take out as we are local and sometimes just wanna eat at the house. She said no problem and took our order and said 10-15 minutes. No problem we took a seat at the bar and ordered a couple drinks, the bartender was doing an outstanding job, every single seat was full and he was the only bartender as they were understaffed yet he was doing a phenomenal job getting everyone served in a timely manner can't ask for more from your server.. food was out in just about 10 minutes and we were off.. got home and the order was perfect and delicious. We went out of the way to leave a nice tip because they most certainly deserved it, I felt like I couldn't have tipped enough that particular day as the entire staff up to and including the bar back were just making it happen!! Will definitely be back phenomenal place both service wise and value and taste..!

The new location has great staff. The food is consistently fresh and the portions are generous.

F O O D The food was very filling and tasted amazing!…read moreDefinitely recommend swinging by here for a bite if you're in OBX. S E R V I C E Our waitress provided great recommendations and even told us about their local brews on tap. A T M O S P H E R E It definitely is a bar and grill atmosphere, so the hustle and bustle is real. Overall a decent place for just dropping in to get a quick bite!

Sensory Overload & A Twist on the Mahi Reuben…read more We stopped in during a game day, and while we were seated quickly, the environment was incredibly loud. They had all the football games playing--except the one we actually wanted to watch--and the extra speakers made it too loud to comfortably talk. The service was disappointing; our server was not attentive at all. She spent most of her time standing at the station drinking a beverage or hanging out in the kitchen, frequently walking out without checking on us. I actually had to flag her down just to get extra sauce to try and liven up the bland Reuben. The food was a bit of a mixed bag: * Mahi Reuben: This was not what I expected. Instead of traditional sauerkraut, it came with warm cabbage. The sauce was a "special sauce"--which didn't taste bad--but it wasn't a typical Reuben dressing. It also wasn't served on rye bread, and the overall flavor profile was very bland. * Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich: My husband ordered this, and it was a hit. It's a different take on the classic since they use queso cheese, but it was really good. Overall, it's a lively spot, but the lack of service and the Reuben twist missed the mark for me.

Wow. I really slept on this place over the years. I have wanted to come here for quite awhile, but…read morenever have done so when visiting OBX. This year, I put that sleeping to an end. I woke up...and had a delicious time! The reviews here tell you how great this place is, and well...believe them! I thought for sure it would be over-hyped and not live up to what people write and say, but I will admit to being wrong. First, our server, Krickett, was agreed upon (by my partner and I) to be the best server we have ever had. She was friendly, outgoing, had good recommendations, and an all-around joy. Second, the food! Wow! My partner had a salad...simple enough, right? But no, she was amazed by it. And she is a vegetarian, so she has had a lot of salads over the years. This one blew her away. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. Was it life-changing? No. But it was way better than what a grilled chicken sandwich normally is. It was tender, juicy, with just the right seasoning. I would be a criminal if I didn't mention the bruschetta...get it with the burrata...it is worth it! The crispy bread with balsamic drizzle is good enough with the diced tomato mix, but the cheese gives it a new level. And, I hope you saved room for dessert, because the key lime pie was a mouth explosion.
