Sat at the outside tables for 15 minutes and no server. Came back to the bar and figured out you had to order inside at the bar. Bartender had a hard time entering the order even though there's only like 12 items on the menu. Told us they'd bring us out our drinks and that took another 15 minutes. Food came in to go boxes from downstairs. They forgot the ranch and honey mustard for the tenders. The ranch and honey mustard are salad dressing packets. And to get 3 entrees and two orders of fries it was $65. - terrible service - terrible food - not a real restaurant Seriously there's restaurants every other corner around this place and they'd all be better food, better service, better price.

We left a diff restaurant with an hr+ wait bc this place supposedly only had a 20-30 min wait. We arrived, checked in and were told when one specific table leaves that we could have their table. There were other open tables but told they didn't have the staff to serve them. So we waited 30 min. and that table did leave on time. However, during that time at least 2 or 3 other parties came to the restaurant and were sat in those empty tables. We were told they had prior reservations AND that apparently they had someone already coming to fill the table we were originally promised. We could wait another 30-45 min for someone else to leave OR sit our 6 adults and 1 child separately at two high back booths with no contact. If it had been my decision I would have walked out immediately. No customer service by host or manager who came to hear it out. The rest of my party was too hungry to wait or go somewhere else so they sat separate and ate. I refused to give them my business and never will. VERY POORLY MANAGED and it obviously starts at the front of the house. My wife had the apricot salmon ($28) its was extremely bland. My 5 yr old son had shrimp and fries ($14!!) which were extremely mediocre at best. I've had better at Culver's. Restaurant looks poorly organized. Needs a renovation, and OBVIOUSLY some new staff who know how to provide customer service in a service industry. Ambiance was like a dive bar trying to serve food to survive. They won't be around long.

We came back to Aromas At the Beach Food, Bar & Breakfast for the second year in a row, and somehow…read moreit was just as good (if not better) than we remembered. Everything here is PACKED with flavor. We tried a little bit of everything -- empanadas, fried yucca, chicken, soup -- and there wasn't a single miss. Every dish came out tasting fresh, well-seasoned, and like it was made with care. You can tell this isn't just your typical beach spot... this is legit. And the service? Just as impressive. Every table inside was completely full, so we sat outside on a beautiful day -- and even with how busy they were, the service was FAST. Our hostess was fantastic the entire time, super attentive and on top of everything. You'd never guess how packed they were based on how smoothly everything ran. The fried yucca was perfectly crispy, the empanadas were loaded and flavorful, and the chicken and soup tied everything together. Honestly, one of those meals where you keep saying "yo this is GOOD" after every bite. We made it a priority to come back this trip, and now it's officially a tradition whenever we're in Sunset Beach. If you're anywhere nearby and want something different from the usual seafood spots, don't sleep on this place.

For my husband's birthday, I offered him 3 choices from great restaurants in our area all of which we have visited and enjoyed for special occasions but not for some time. His choice was Maya. Upon arrival, we were greeted by our server "Adi" (?-we're hard-of-hearing). My "many words" could describe her attributes as a professional filling just about any position. Yet, as our server she was courteous, poised, respectful, warm, non-intrusive, sensitive to timing (re: approaching tables), clear and knowledgeable re: our questions about entreés,most their ingredients & receptivity of such a choice enjoyed (or not) by previous patrons. Without being rushed, we savored one last forkful of our meals. (Mine was Lambchops, plantains, sprinkled with sesame seeds, and rice covered with a delicious semi-spicy red sauce. The "birthday boy" chose the Salmon dish (Mahi Cozumel?). Adi can help you but for double excellent service, call to make sure she's there (i.e. on the "night shift").

Went this past weekend as a group for our work retreat, we had a group of 20. The restaurant was so…read morecute and the decorations really tied the restaurant in with the cuisine. The food was a 10/10 I got the ACP and it was delicious and plated nicely. Even though we booked days in advance with a reservation of 20 people, unfortunately the staff was not well prepared. We arrived at 5:40pm, everyone did not receive their drinks until 6:15 and had to ask someone to take our order at 6:30. By 7 we had to also ask for our appetizer as we still had not received it and we did not receive our food until 7:30. We also had to flag down our waiter/waitress throughout the dinner in order to get refills and ended up not leaving until 8:20 as we had to wait for our check as well. Even though the food is good we will not be coming back because they were definitely not prepared for a group. Additionally some of our meals came out cold and we realized after we had cut or bitten into the food, the waiters took it back and you could tell it had been microwave as the same cuts were still in the food. After waiting almost 2 hours for our food it surely should not have come out cold.

I had the Shrimp Tacos that were flavorful. The service however was not very good. We sat down and were eventually told it was tiki bar style where we had to go to the tiki bar to get food. Once we were told this, we also asked for an umbrella to shade the sun at our table. When we did we were told that umbrellas weren't supposed to be open because of the wind. At the same exact time we were told this, all the tables umbrellas were up and there were two umbrellas unused behind the bar. It seems that the staff just didn't want to help us.

This review is for the off season menu: I appreciate places…read moreoffering cheaper options during off season, to make it more affordable for the locals and giving the restaurant continued business. However, it would be best to just discount your regular menu slightly, but keep the quality of food the same. We can go anywhere during the tourist on-season and get a truly delicious $15 burger + fries around Ocean Isle (& even cheaper at Beaches). So when we saw the $10 off-season menu burger for Pelicans Perch we assumed the quality would still be good but that it was discounted as a way to keep busy during the off season. But it was reminiscent of a school lunch burger or a fast food burger (but even worse). The chili was ok, and that was why I did give it 2 stars. After that experience, I could not bother to go back to try the regular menu or recommend this place. So their regular menu may be wonderful. But serving an extremely low quality burger for $10 as a type of special for locals was disappointing.
