As an Italian American, food has always meant more to me than a good meal. It's how we celebrate, connect, and make people feel at home. So when I moved to a small Southern town, I wondered whether I'd find a restaurant that felt like my kind of place. From the moment I walked into Beaufort Grocery, I knew I had. Over the past four and a half years, they've welcomed us with open arms, greeted us with kisses on the cheek, remembered my drink, surprised me with my favorite dessert on my birthday, and treated us on our anniversary. Those moments mean so much. What I love most is the way the staff cares for one another and extends that same warmth to everyone who walks through the door. The food is spectacular, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the people are truly special. Beaufort Grocery is a little slice of heaven in my Hallmark movie town. I'm so grateful I found it, and even more grateful to call the people there my found family.

We tried Beaufort Grocery Co. for Sunday brunch, and apparently everyone else had the same idea!…read more They open at 10, and there was already a line out the door right at opening with about a 45-minute wait for indoor seating. Since it's mid-August, we happily chose to wait for a table inside rather than brave the heat. While we waited, we hung out in the bar area. It's small but really cute and inviting, with a ton of fun drink options. I'm pregnant, so I went with one of their mocktails, and it was delicious! The food was absolutely worth the wait. The portions are HUGE, everything was cooked perfectly, and the pricing felt very reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get. Seating inside is definitely a little tight, but that's really the only downside we found. Overall, we had a great experience and honestly didn't mind the wait at all. If there's a line when you get there, I'd say stick it out, the brunch is worth it!

Even though I've got two Jersey Mike's locations somewhat close to the home office, I've never been…read moreto either of them. Put us on vacation in North Carolina though (our only visits to this chain prior were at the Manteo store) and suddenly we stop here. It's the same ordering process as we experienced in Manteo with the order being taken at the counter, then you pay and then the food is brought out to your table if it's a hot sub but any cold subs are done before you pay. One more weird thing about the ordering process both here and in Manteo. When we order the meatball sub there is always this pause from the staff and the need to check if they actually have any meatballs available regardless of the time of day. I don't get that. If it's on the menu, it should be available. Only William Shatner is allowed to make dramatic pauses like this. #13 - Original Italian #15 - Meatball #17 - Philly Cheesesteak #20 - Grilled Pastrami Ruben There were two downsides to the order. By the time the meatball sub actually got to the table the person with the Italian was nearly finished. Yeah, it was that long. Second was that everything was beyond messy. Meatballs-sauce-sauerkraut-oil-vinegar-steak meat everywhere. It was as if the food was made by someone with a blindfold on or during some severe seismic event. Whatever profit the store made on our order was partially wasted on the amount of napkins we burned through. The one, and I suppose the only one that matters, thing that is most important is that everything tasted great. The hot food was hot and the cold food was cold and everything was made the way we asked in terms of toppings. With the slow implosion of Subway very much in progress, Jersey Mike's while far more expensive, is a much better alternative if you're going to go the chain sub route. If our food were put together a bit neater this would be a five star review and I truly don't give up many of those especially for food establishments. A+

The bread - at least with my experience - was so tough & rough it damaged my gums to the point that nine days after my last sub I have to go to my doctor to prescribe antibiotics.

My burger came with slaw but it was not like any slaw I've had. Somewhat sweet but no mayonnaise! I'll be looking online for this recipe. Overall great drive in food at a good price.

We stopped by El's after our kids worked up an appetite. We liked the old school drive-in feel and the kids eating in their car seats strapped in with the DVD player and AC on was a really nice touch after all the running. We got a bunch of things off the menu: grilled cheese and nuggets for my 2 younger boys, hamburger and double cheeseburger for my 2 older boys, onion rings, hush puppies and the ever so famous shrimp burgers for my husband and I (hubby got the super shrimp burger). I wouldn't have considered trying the shrimp burger but after reading about how amazing it is, I knew I had to try it. There were a lot of shrimp in the regular burger, and I'm not a coleslaw girly but the coleslaw really worked in the burger. It really did not disappoint and now I am salivating just thinking about it.

Yo, the internet homies steered me wrong! Shame on y'all!…read more I got the shrimp burger with smoked gouda mac and cheese. The shrimp were criminally overcooked, and the mac needed salt in the worst way. They didn't salt the pasta water (or salt it enough), and the mac was really sad, as a result. My friend got the soup of the day combo, which were were told was a "white bean and basil soup", but I'll be danged if it didn't come out with the most garbanzo-y looking white beans I've ever seen in my life. She said it tasted like they dumped rotel, chickpeas, and pesto into a pot and called it soup, and not in a good way. My wife got the smoked wings. She said the flavor was good, but they were brought out lukewarm and very lightly sauced (she's an extra saucy kind of lady). We got two cocktails, a cherry limeade slushie and a Kill Devil Hills Pain Killer. We were told the cherry limeade was made with just cherry mixer, lime, and vodka, but it definitely tasted like it had coconut in it, and my wife hates coconut. The Pain Killer I got was acceptable, but we ordered it with our food, and it didn't come out until I'd almost finished my dinner. The vibes in the place were meh, but fine (especially if the food/drinks were good), but the tables were extremely sticky across their entire surface, so either someone sucks at cleaning, or the finish on the tables was failing and needed to be sanded down/refinished. We did get a side of sweet potato fries that were pretty dope, but they didn't make up for the disappointment of everything else. 1 out of 5 stars; do not recommend.

The prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and honestly, most everything we've tried has been really good. Their Greek salad is one of my favorites -- fresh, flavorful, and big enough to make a meal, especially when you add blackened shrimp, buffalo shrimp, chicken, or whatever protein you're in the mood for. They also make great pizzas, wings, and subs. My husband and I will sometimes split a sub because they're so generous with portions. What really keeps us coming back, though, is the atmosphere and the people. It's relaxed, unpretentious, and the staff are always friendly and easy to interact with. Just a solid local spot with consistently great food.

We came on a Tuesday night around 5 and were seated. The place was not full, not yet, but by 6 pm packed. I ordered the chicken Gyro and a salad. The salad was crisp and tasty. The Gyro was filled with tons of lettuce but not much chicken and the chicken was dry. I guess if there had been more tzatziki sauce it would not have been that bad. I ate the few pieces of chicken and left the rest of it. My friend had the special which was some kind of a teriyaki chicken with onion rings and sweet potato fries. I had a bite of each. Again, the chicken was dry and the onions rings were good but the sweet potato fries were excellent! I guess they put a brown sugar on them and they are tasty. Our waitress was great. Friendly and always with a smile. The price was good. Would I go back, probably not... but my friends love the place and go weekly.
