The chef was kind enough to come out and offer to make another sauce for her. My friend just scraped off the sauce, but we were both very impressed by the chef's concern. Service was excellent, and since it was Sunday night and I'm a football lover, I enjoyed watching the NFL while having a delicious meal. We both highly recommend this restaurant!

We ordered black beans and coconut rice with steak. Steak was cooked perfectly to order and tasted wonderful. Also got the scallops special and they were not stingy with the number of perfectly cooked scallops. Got two drinks that were served in quirky but cool tiki glasses. Perfect for a tiki bar and wonderfully made. Also got two desserts. The beignets reminded us of malasadas (a tasty Hawaiian dessert made similar to fried donuts) and the rum cake was nice as well. Loved it so much we got shirts and will definitely be back.

Such a unique place. This is privately owned and has a pier (part is closed off due to damage from…read morea 2018 storm), a restaurant, an ice cream shop/coffee shop, and an outdoor tiki bar. Not sure about parking as we walked here. It wasn't very busy when we got there, but slowly had people coming in and out. Lots of locals. We started in the High Tides lounge which is upstairs and has indoor and outdoor seating. Super cute decor. Had an Island Escape margarita which was absolutely delicious - no marg mix here! Just fresh squeezed juice and it was great. Also had a Mai Tai that was tasty too. Ordered a BLBT (which is super extra bacon - but also a ton of lettuce and tomato) and a fish sandwich of some sort (something local Carolina). The BLBT didn't come with a side, but you don't need one! It's massive. Served on toasty bread. Delicious, highly recommend. The fish sandwich came with pasta salad. Again, a healthy portion. The menu isn't extensive but you will find some great options on there!!! Bartender was lovely! Shout out to Amy. She was super friendly, helpful, and attentive. After eating, went outside to the tiki bar that was on the actual pier. Ordered more drinks - another marg, an orange crush (it's sweet), and an electric lemonade that was meh. Get the marg!! They even do frozen drinks which are great while sitting on the pier above the beach. Great scenery. Again, service was great. Britta and Haley were our bartenders. You can order the same menu at the tiki bar as you can at the lounge. Super nice to have options to move around. The pier even has picnic tables for larger parties.

We learned this location will be torn down on October 3, and a new one built across the street. The food was great! Because of the reviews, I decided to try the ahi tuna nachos. And because I like produce I also got a side of steamed broccoli. Both were delicious! The nachos were huge- I only ate like half before getting full! The broccoli was also delicious and I'm so glad I incorporated it. My husband enjoyed his fish and fries too! The service was good, and I would definitely visit the new location once they're open!

Completely blew us away and surprised us! The food was spectacular! I had a Mahi fish taco that came in 3. Best fish tacos I've ever had to date and in the Carolina beach area. The shrimp nachos were spectacular as well with small chunks of pineapple, good melted cheese, etc and a nice mix of purple nacho chips. My Bahama Mama drink was fabulous and our Pinã Colada was homemade -not from a mix. It was served with a small dollop of coconut cream on top and a delicate dash of nutmeg. Perfect! This little tiki bar was the best meal and highlight of our trip! Who'd have guessed?! Go there!!!

All relaxation and good times only. The decor is great and will have you constantly finding new things to look at. It's for sure overstimulating in a good way. Comfortable seating outside where you have protection from the sun and cute lighting at night. You walk in and then go to a walk in cooler that has all the drink options. There's non alcoholic, beers galore, THC drinks (must be a big thing in NC), ciders, and some other canned concoctions. You grab what you want and head to the register. If you are staying and grab more than one, they have to hold it for you as your second round. You can only have one open drink per person. There is a $10 minimum on purchases. Once your drink is secured, you then find a spot to perch. There's indoor and outdoor options. It was rainy when we went and we were able to find a spot that was covered. This is a super chill place. Worth coming with a group or alone. You will be chilled! They do have bathrooms, merch, and some machines to play. Super nice employees too!!!

Super friendly and attentive. She for sure added to the down home vibe that this place has. We ordered a margarita and another drink that was similar to a Manhattan. Both were great. Also grabbed a sangria that was good as well. Started with the chicken satay and it was great. Highly recommend this. Comes with 4 and the slaw and sauce were amazing. Ordered the seafood paella which was delicious and the burger. The portions are generous! Let me tell you that burger was one of the best burgers I have ever had. The bun - it was like a cloud. Maybe it was steamed? It wasn't heavy and it didn't take over the main star which were the two delicious patties with some fantastic cheese and then had caramelized onions with red peppers. This came with fries as well. Do not leave without getting this burger. It will ruin all other burgers you have ever had or will have. This is a no brainer! Get here.

Our service was quick and efficient! We snuck in right before the rush around 5:45 PM our server Kyra was wonderful! Her timing was excellent and her suggestions were spot on! She was friendly, efficient, and just added to the great experience that all four of us had! My husband and I shared the mahi special and something called Crete Beets ( spelled on the menu beats); both were absolutely delicious! The mahi was prepared perfectly and had a nice light creole sauce which they put on the side for dipping and the crab mac & cheese was delightful with asparagus that was cooked on point; not overdone and not underdone which I know in restaurants is sometimes difficult to do. The crete "beats" was more or less a charcuterie board of roasted purple and gold beats with the most delicious whipped dip and perfectly seasoned and baked pita some of the best I've ever had with olives and cucumbers, and pickled red onions! I can't really describe the dip and apparently it's top-secret because I asked for the recipe! Our friends ordered the beet salad with extra beets; shrimp Tapatio and a bowl of the soup of the day. All were delicous and there was not a crumb or a drop left on their plates while my husband and I were still eating ours! The soup of the day was a potato jalapeño cheddar and it did not disappoint! this seriously is one of the few consistent restaurants on the island! I'm still dreaming about my food this morning!

Service was excellent and the location is perfect if you're out downtown. Drinks were a mixed bag. The smoked Old Fashioned looked good but wasn't anything special.

Overall though, it's a cool spot with great service and a fun atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Wilmington.
