This time we had business up the Caratoke Highway so we timed it just right for lunch. Ms T reprised her Chicken Tender Sandwich and again it was good. I decided that I needed two Carolina Dogs. We split an order of fries. I really like there homemade dog chili and the fine, creamy slaw. This was just as good as I remembered and worth the trip. The order of fries was generous. Ms T took part of her chicken home, and I took home a Carolina Dog. I have to return next time we are here.

It felt like it was authentic Carolina BBQ. I wasn't a fan of the "yankee BBQ" sauce, but the Carolina BBQ was very delicious. Only down falls: - sitting inside is all open windows so there was no escape from the heat (but survivable) - bathrooms didn't have a changing table.

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. My wife got the chicken Caesar wrap with macaroni salad. Both were very good and a good value.

We stopped by on our last night in Manteo looking for something casual that wouldn't break the…read morevacation budget. The restaurant has a fun, laid-back atmosphere, and they were getting ready for live music while we were there. We were dining with our young daughter, and once the band had finished setting up, we got the impression they were gently encouraging us to wrap things up. No one was rude about it, but it definitely felt like they preferred not to have a family with a little one there once the music got underway. My husband ordered a burger that he polished off and described simply as, "Good." Coming from him, that's actually a solid endorsement. I ordered the Cuban Reuben. The flavors were good, but I was surprised to find it served on what appeared to be a flour tortilla rather than the flatbread described on the menu. It ended up eating more like a wrap than a sandwich. I still enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I had ordered fries with my meal but received chips instead. I never checked the receipt to see whether I was charged for the upgrade, but it ended up working out just fine. My husband was convinced they were just really good Lay's chips. I disagreed. We still haven't settled that debate, but we both agreed they were fresh, crunchy, and delicious. My daughter ordered the grilled cheese, and after spending the week on an unofficial Outer Banks grilled cheese tour (because toddlers have priorities), this one landed somewhere around a 5/10. Overall, it was a pleasant meal with a great atmosphere, and I can absolutely see it being a fun place to grab a drink and listen to live music. It just wasn't one of the standout meals from our trip.

The…read moreservice was definitely a highlight--everyone we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and we were taken care of quickly. The food, however, didn't quite meet our expectations. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich, which was a bit underseasoned for my taste, and the baked beans were softer than I prefer. I also tried the key lime pie, which unfortunately wasn't my favorite. My boyfriend had the brisket, and while it was tender, it didn't have the smoky flavor we were hoping for. Overall, while we appreciated the welcoming service, the food didn't stand out compared to other BBQ we've had. It may come down to personal preference, but it wasn't quite the experience we were hoping for during a special occasion.
