    AWESOME steamed shrimp. Highlight of our trip. My husband also enjoyed the lady that worked there when he picked it up. Great people!

    Ok yelp, another review I have already left, that you have deleted and pretend like I did not do a…read morereview. I can't tell if they delete them on purpose or if they have major issues with their entire system. Sadly, because of this I will write less and not waste my time redoing it. Yes the lobster is good, and the guy who took our order was funny and friendly. Our food came out fast and was exactly what we expected from a Maine lobster shack. You eat outside under a shade on picnic tables. There is no inside so keep that in mind and if you need the restroom they don't have one, you'll need to run across the parking lot to the tackle and bait fishing shop (which is a really cool store and lots of boating, touristy, beach stuff too). To us where they really shined was the soups. I had the clam chowder and my wife had lobster bisque. Both were excellent! Almost everyone sells clam chowder up and down the barrier islands but many do the water based version with canned clams which are hard and too chewy. This was a proper clam chowder made with fresh clams and real cream. It was spot on. The same for the bisque. If you're unsure, they offer sample tastes of the soups. Will we go back? Yes. Was it expensive? Yes. We spent $90 bucks for lunch and that's a lot for us so it won't be a regular stop for us, if we were more affluent we would eat here more often.

    We stopped in solely because my husband and I physically cannot pass up a lobster roll. Thankfully,…read morethis place absolutely delivered. The food was fantastic, but honestly the service is what made this place stand out. We brought our kids, and in the chaos of ordering, I accidentally ordered mac & cheese for my son when he actually wanted a grilled cheese. Cue the dramatic small-child disappointment. Not only were we greeted warmly by multiple staff members, but the gentleman who I assume was the owner noticed my son pouting at the table and immediately stepped in. He brought him a grilled cheese on the house and completely turned dinner around. Later he came back with samples, checked on us again, and genuinely made us feel welcome. I say this as someone who feels like customer service and human connection are slowly being replaced by QR codes and mild emotional neglect: this place still gets it. I watched him interact with other customers the same way, and it was clear the kindness wasn't just for show. Bonus points: the location is perfect. It's right next to an ice cream shop and in a great downtown area, so you can easily make an evening out of it. Lobster roll, ice cream, walk around.

    We had a really disappointing experience here tonight. We…read moreput our name in at 7:00 PM for a party of 6 and were told the wait would be about 45 minutes. That would've been fine -- but we ended up waiting an hour and 20 minutes with absolutely no updates or communication from staff. No check-ins, no revised estimate, nothing. By the time we were finally seated, we were starving and ready to order immediately. We came specifically for the crab legs, and as soon as my sister ordered them, our waiter casually mentioned he "thought" they might be out. He went to check... and confirmed they were completely out. To make it worse, the table next to us -- who checked in after us and were seated before us -- had just gotten the last of the crab legs. So after waiting far longer than promised, with zero communication, the one thing we came for wasn't even available. And the cherry on top was the fact that our waiter kept forgetting about us and we had to wait so long for the check. That's not just frustrating -- it's poor management. If you're running out of a key menu item, especially something as central as crab legs, that needs to be communicated to waiting guests. And seating later arrivals before earlier ones just adds insult to injury. We left extremely disappointed and won't be coming back.

The crab balls were amazing. Get a crab cake or crab balls at this joint. Hushpuppies were good too. I got the oyster Po Boy. It was chocked full of oysters! Slaw was good and on the sweeter side. Beachy vibe and atmosphere for sure. They have inside dining, outside dining and in the bar music and a definite good time. The service was... ok. It was 8 when we got there and the kitchen evidently closes at 9. I felt like we were putting our server out a bit. But... maybe they were having a bad day. It happens. I definitely recommend going without a doubt

    We've lived in the area for about 6 years. Eat out fairly often. This restaurant by far has been…read morethe most consistent in the quality of the food, which is the best of all the restaurants in the topsail area. It is not fine dining and has the sports bar vibe. It is a relatively small place and I recommend going on non peak hours in season. If you are into oysters, they have a great selection of both local and regional on the half shell. If you prefer cooked, chargrilled or steamed is a good choice. While the menu has a great selection of seafood, the chalkboard specials features extremely fresh local catches which change daily. While there are several restaurants in and around the topsail area this is the only one where I have never been disappointed. If you go at peak hours during the vacation season expect to wait but it is worth it. You can't miss with any of the steamed shellfish offerings and if you prefer fried there batter is light and not overpowering. As a sports bar, they have a large selection of tap and bottled beers and a good mixology of liquor options which is only outdone in my opinion by Rick's in Sneads Ferry

    Whenever a restaurant puts "market price" next to an item, I'm worried. But Dear Wife and I were in…read morethe low country and we wanted a low country boil. So that's what we got. I could've asked the price upfront (and usually do) but what the heck... we're on vacation. The server suggested we get a "double" and share it. OK. Sounds good. It came out quick. There was a TON of food for two of us. Shrimp, sausage, potatoes, corn. It didn't have a lot of seasoning also on it, but - no problem - there was a rack with every hot sauce you'd ever need, plus salt, pepper and old bay. We both ate our fill and even left a few potatoes. The bill comes and it's less than $40. It might be the cheapest great meal I've had in a long time. Or maybe it's the "greatest cheap meal" I've had in a long time... I don't know. Bar ambiance, but pleasant enough for families. Mostly high tables. It all seemed very nice.
