A flavorful bloody Mary.
Troy H.

4 stars because I don't give 5's except for our waitress Kimberly, she was great. Kimberly had great knowledge about the food menu and the drink menu, she was extremely attentive. We ordered a plain cheeseburger for our pups. The outside area is pet-friendly. The dogs lived their burger, it was cooked just right and nice and juicy. Kimberly made sure the pups had plates, fresh water and were happy. She had the Mahi mahi protein bowl, the flavors were nice unfortunately the fish was a little over cooked. I had the baked oyster sampler, I usually only eat raw but I figured why not. OMG , the flavors were wonderful on all three different types. Oh yeah the appetizer... we ordered Nashville hot wings. The wings had a nice crunch, you could taste the sweetness of the honey but I did not notice the heat. I added some Franks and habenero hot sauce.

This restaurant is one of the best on the island. Skip some of the older more well known spots and come here! The service was excellent and the food was too.We tried many different types of oysters, crab dip, the catch of the day and for the non seafood eaters, we had a chicken sandwich. As a restaurant that is known for oysters, their selection of non seafood was incredible. Do not skip the sidewinder fries with spicy ranch! The standouts were the crab dip, Nashville Hot sandwich and the Ceviche oysters.

Was looking for a dog friendly spot for lunch on a day trip to Ocracoke and found this cool spot on bringfido.com. Oysters Ocracoke as an app. Yummmmmm. Crab stuffed flounder for the hubs and a blackened shrimp protein bowl for me. Excellent service by Luke and even better ambiance. Will become a repeat spot for sure!!

Food & service was first class. I had a Ruben with the sidewinder potatoes. The corned beef was very tender. The potatoes were delicious. My wife had the mahi tacos with mango salsa. She loved it!

Standing outside of the Okracoke oyster company. Had a yummy IPA, the food smelled amazing but we were just making our way shopping. Shout out to our bartender from California who was hustling.

Christmas week on Ocracoke is an odd time. It's definitely the offseason where most of the dining options on the island are seasonally closed but as I've seen on each of my three Christmas week visits over the years, if you add good weather to the mix, there are a lot of hungry people looking for somewhere to go and that's exactly what we got at OOC. Service: Good enough all things considered. It was early afternoon on a weekday and the place was mobbed. 15-20 minute for a table and the only thing they had was outside seating which is crazy in late December, but when it's sunny and 60 degrees it works. Our server was doing the best she good but was frazzled big time with all of the tables she had. She initially gave us another table's drink order and dropped one of our entrees on the ground but overall, I guess it could be worse. Food: This is where the three star rating comes from. I can't say that anything was bad, but I'm not going to say that anything was memorable either. BBQ Pork Nachos - Peppercorn Burger - Pasta of the Day - Fried Shrimp Platter - Rueben The nachos are probably what worked best. Good meat to sauce ratio and it was a solid portion for the price. The pasta was the entree the server dropped so it took a while to get another one rendered, the bacon on the peppercorn burger was limp white underdone even though I asked for it to be crispy and the bread on the Rueben seemed stale. The pricing isn't bad considering where you're at and overall, I am glad they chose to be open versus the majority of their peers on the island. But the food is at best middle of the road ok which is why for me, three stars is spot on.

Blackened Mahi Mahi Tacos
Lori Ann R.

Had the Oyster's Rockefeller and they were fantastic along with the mahi mahi tacos, blackened. I'm new to Oyster's Rockefeller, having only had them two or three times before but these best out all the others I've tried. There's a huge difference in same day caught, fresh oysters and I know that now. Blackened mahi tacos were excellent and were served with a side of black beans and rice, both were also great. Service was spectacular. We both had the house Bloody Mary's and those were awesome as well. We loved the outdoor patio seating.

Soft Shell Crab Po Boy
Glenn W.

Such a great place to eat!! Food was delicious. The service was spot on, even to the extent that they moved the umbrellas around so we all had some shade. Waitress was friendly and helpful. We sat outside so the outside ambiance was so chill it was great. I had the soft shell crab po boy, it was better than any I've had, including NOLA. The fried shrimp kids meal was huge. Definitely worth a return trip.

Peppercorn burger
Phylicia H.

Really fun and lively spot for food and drinks. Be prepared to wait because it is very crowded and when I went they were short staffed. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Ordered the chicken salad with fig and balsamic vinaigrette. Ocracoke is famous for figs so I was excited to try the dressing, but wasn't as strong of a flavor as I would have liked. Great portion size and still tasty! My bf ordered the peppercorn burger and really enjoyed it! We came during live music, which was very nice. I would definitely come back!

Local Raw Oysters, Crabbed Oysters, Mahi Tuna bites, and Cream of Crab soup.

My family always hits the Oyster Company each time they come to Ocracoke. They suggested this place when I came with them last year. The fresh local oysters are excellent. The baked oysters eat like salty pizza bites. They are awesome. My family orders a dozen oysters for the table, half raw and half cooked. We usually add an appetizer and drinks to go with them. This year saw the same. We ordered a dozen oysters and some seafood entrees to share among the five of us. The food was great! I'm happy with the food and service here. The bugs like this place too, so apply some repellent before dining here. Otherwise, I recommend the Oyster Company to anyone looking for quality seafood in the heart of Ocracoke Village.

Food is decent but for the price, their quantity is I must say pretty bad. Ambience is fine, now parking is minimal.

Awesome seafood restaurant on Okracoke Island. Efficient staff and great food. A relaxing time…read moreafter a day of traveling. We shared the Seafood Platter, crab legs, burger, and the lobster!

It was our Last night on the island. Everyone says you have to go to Howard's. No you don't. Cool…read morevibe, large space. If you eat like a 10 year old, it's fine. Our waitress was from New England and we couldn't get her to understand the difference between NE clam chowder and anything else. We wanted NE clam chowder. Cream base. The soup of the day was a clam soup with a clear stock. We asked for the cream based clam chowder. She brought the shrimp chowder. Full of corn and potatoes. No shrimp. We asked and she said 'you wanted the cream base' to which all of us relied that we said the cream based CLAM chowder. If they didn't have it, she never said they didn't have it. She brought out the other broth based soup of the day and I cannot believe how BAD it was. It tasted like the stock deglazed a cast iron pot with scorched bacon in it. Sour and metallic. Just foul. The flounder of the day was fine. The Mac n cheese was bland. Husband ordered onion rings but what she brought were seriously overcooked. I can't believe she brought them to the table. Hoping we'd eat them? She took forever to come back and we didn't have to say much. She knew. If that apparent, why serve it?! Pricey crappy dinner. Would have rather spent that or more on better service and food just down the block.

Craving Pizza on the Island? Sorella's is a Must-Try!…read more While visiting the island, I found myself in the mood for some good pizza, so I decided to check out Sorella's for dinner--and I'm so glad I did! With its reputation for hearty, flavor-packed dishes, it was the perfect spot to satisfy my cravings. What We Ordered: * BBQ Pizza * Big Daddy Pizza * Stromboli BBQ PIZZA This pizza was a savory-sweet masterpiece! The olive oil base paired beautifully with the barbecue chicken, caramelized onions, and smoky bacon. The addition of jalapeños brought the perfect kick, while the cheddar and mozzarella created a rich, melty layer of cheesy goodness. Topped with a barbecue swirl, every bite was packed with bold flavors that balanced sweetness and spice perfectly. It was a creative twist on classic pizza flavors, and it didn't disappoint. BIG DADDY PIZZA If you're a fan of the classics, this one's for you. The Big Daddy Pizza was piled high with red sauce, beef, sausage, pepperoni, green peppers, red onions, mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese. Each ingredient brought something special to the table: the meats were perfectly seasoned, the vegetables added a satisfying crunch, and the mozzarella held it all together with a gooey, cheesy blanket. This pizza is a hearty, crowd-pleasing option for anyone who loves a fully loaded slice. STROMBOLI This was the showstopper for me! Stuffed with red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, green peppers, red onions, mushrooms, and mozzarella, the Stromboli was simply heavenly. The crust was golden and perfectly baked, with just the right balance of crispness and chewiness. The filling was indulgent, packed with meat and cheese, making it a dream for any meat lover. Every bite felt comforting and decadent--a must-try if you visit Sorella's. We opted for takeout and enjoyed our meal during a cozy movie night at our rental. The pizzas and Stromboli held up beautifully, still warm and fresh when we dug in. Sorella's proved to be the perfect blend of convenience and quality for a relaxed evening in. Sorella's nailed it on every level--flavor, portion sizes, and variety. Whether you're in the mood for a creative take on pizza like the BBQ Pizza, a classic loaded option like the Big Daddy, or the indulgent Stromboli, you're bound to find something to love here. If you're ever on the island and craving pizza, Sorella's is the place to go. I'll definitely be back for more!
