    My husband don and his deviled crab

    Best seafood around. My husband and I go alot and have never been disappointed from the staff to the food it's absolutely phenomenal.

    We waited for 40 minutes before being seated. After we were finally seated, we waited another 20-plus minutes before the host came over and asked if the server had attended to us, which they had not. The server eventually came and apologized, stating she had no idea we had been seated. We then endured another long wait for our food, which turned out to be quite disappointing. I don't believe I we will be eating here again, if we do it will be for the hamburgers. We chose seafood, and I don't recommend it.

    so we're in wilkesboro because stuff happens and needed something like dinner and the cutest of chicks was hoping for something like fish... so we are in hill country heading to a place what's made a name selling ocean-based victuals. after a short drive across town we pull up on a twenty minute wait and a pick-up line five cars deep that stayed that deep for the next hour and a half. our twenty minutes went by pretty quick, we got a booth and Katie swung by with hush puppies and went off to get some coffee and hot water for her tea (we bring our own bags because it's the south and ain't nobody has hot tea but the chinese) as we figured dinner out... I went with the catfish special plus slaw and potato and MLB had the flounder with potato and salad... salt and pepper catfish was unlike any I've had before, lighter and flakier than is typical and barely fishy at all but still with the distinct cleft. eats just as well plain or with lemon or cocktail sauce as is your pleasure. slaw is chopped and not overly creamed, captain's taters are thin and round and more delicately seasoned than you're likely to guess. the flounder was similarly light but had a mild fishiness to it that makes me go 'yumm! fish!' side salad with a well mannered blue cheese was fresh and bright next to the baked tater plus sour cream.

    We found this place on Yelp looking for seafood after the NASCAR race. OMG such fresh shrimp & the light batter on my husband's was perfect. Our waitress could not have been sweeter & efficient!! Too bad we don't live down here because we would be going frequently!! It's a comfortable place to eat & the music is playing at a much appreciated lower volume!! You won't regret going!!!

    Beautiful steamed crab legs

    First time ordering here. Crab legs were Beautiful, clean and full of meat! The peel and eat shrimp were perfectly steamed and seasoned. Baked potatoes and salads were fresh and tasty. Would not hesitate to recommend and we will certainly be going back again soon!

    Great place to eat locally. We usually get it to go and it's just as good. Haven't had anything bad here ever.

    My husband got us lunch here a couple of days ago and that was the biggest sandwich I have ever seen. It was delicious.

    Great service. Good food. Try grilled chicken salad. Delicious! Prices are reasonable in this high inflation time.

    Service was great! Food was pretty good, but I wish they would use real butter instead of that fake oil butter stuff.

    We've dined here a few times and I'd say overall it's an average steakhouse with room for…read moreimprovement but isn't that the case with most restaurants today?!? Our most recent visit was this past Friday night and we ordered from the Valentine's Special menu. I won't go into great detail on the food because it wasn't any worse than other times but appetizer was basically a raw battered onion and husband's steak was a really small portion (about half the size of mine) and it was almost all fat & grizzle. We did not complain or send it back. We've never had outstanding food here but it's in a convenient location and it offers typical American fare: meat and 2 sides. Husband loved his sides: Cole Slaw & Baked Sweet Potato and the Cinnamon Sugar Butter that comes with it and the hot rolls. Restaurant overall wasn't really that busy but we were sitting in the bar and the dining room waitresses had a lot of drink orders so our waitress (the only person manning the bar) was extremely busy. She was really good for our service though. We have always sat in the bar when we eat here so I cannot speak to dining in the restaurant and waitress service out there. Vibes in bar area are typical with plenty of TVs playing different sporting events. Million dollar question: Will we return? Answer: Probably. If we're in the area and in need of something more than fast food then we will likely stop in and sit in the bar area like always. If the service is bad, we'll likely leave (btw We've never had bad service) If the food is bad and we're in a crunch for time (which we usually are), we'll just not eat it. If we ever have time to spare, we might send it back for correction or just ask to have it taken off the bill. There's no need to make a scene or be rude to staff.

    Came across this steakhouse while looking for something local in South Wilkesboro, and it did not…read moredisappoint. I was initially a little concerned since we were the only people in the restaurant at 7:00 p.m., but that worry quickly faded. The atmosphere was quiet, and service was prompt and attentive. I ordered the 16-oz ribeye, which was cooked perfectly. The only drawback was that it could have used a bit more seasoning. Bar drinks were on point, though the draft selection was limited to just one local beer. Overall, a solid local spot with good food and strong drinks.
