    A large, yummy, and cheap breakfast for those who don't want to make breakfast
    Trinh V.

    I'm on vacation from CA and unfortunately the West Coast isn't blessed with Waffle Houses, so of course it was a must to visit one on our trip. I got the same thing I usually get on these trips: a hash brown bowl with ham, sunny side up eggs, and cheese plus a blueberry nougat waffle. I always love how crispy and nicely seasoned the hash brown bowls are, and especially love that the eggs are so runny because I love to mix it in with the rest of my bowl. The blueberry nougat waffle was super crispy, savory and sweet, and was very delicious with their serving butter and maple syrup. And all of that was only $15.25 (that's before we tipped)! I always love eating at Waffle House, because they're always such nice and cozy little diners to hit on the go. This experience was extra warm and welcoming because our waitress, Carol, kindly took our orders, had meaningful conversations with us, and checked up on us every so often to make sure we had everything we needed (any other sauces, accommodations, filling up waters, etc.) She's amazing! We'll definitely come back to this Waffle House when we get the chance to again and hopefully we'll get to share our stories with Carol, too!

    Plan grits, plan toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, black coffee with only sugar (probably too much)

    I was meeting my mom for her birthday and running late, so I was already frazzled when I walked in the door. Juniper ( our waitress ) must've noticed this, because when she approach the table, she was very friendly, calm, cool and collected, and offered me a drink immediately after welcoming me in. I ordered a coffee, and as she quickly returned, I had somehow (in all my frazzle) completely spaced out on the fact that I myself am allergic to all animal dairy proteins and milk, and asked "you guys don't have any alternative milks, do you?" She seemed truly apologetic as she told me they don't, and I assured her it was okay as I returned the creamer to her, and asked for sugar. I then went over the menu with her to see what items had dairy or butter in them. Come to find out quite a lot of foods at waffle House are either premade with butter or have butter in them. But this staff went above and beyond to help ya girl out. She informed me that all of the grits were made with butter, but when we asked the chef Sean Patrick, he then questioned if the grits have been made for the day, and when he found out that the water was indeed still boiling, he made me grits that were completely plain without the butter add-in so that I could have grits with my meal and made me plain toast so I can add my non-dairy butter once I'm home. I also informed them of my other allergy, which is unfortunately onions and they paid close attention to that as well. I can tell that this waffle house staff gets along well and seems to have no problem working as a team, individually, or in pairs - really honestly just working together. The time that I spent in the restaurant might've been short, but it was quite refreshing having a staff who actually - pardon in my gibberish here - gave a damn about my allergies. I will always take the time to acknowledge a staff who not only understands that, but also goes out of their way to try to assist me. I have only actually known about my allergies for a few years now. Before I became anaphylactic allergic to dairy or onions, we just thought it was acne. But things are different now, and I'm still getting the hang of it. For those of us who have debilitating allergies and can't eat at chain restaurants anymore because of the reactions that we have, you should train your employees to be more like this. It is hard enough to go to the grocery store let alone find restaurants that I can get more than a salad with no dressing. Which is why it was awesome to go to a Waffle House and meet people who are so understanding and willing to help has been a true experience all in its own. You do not come across that often. Most people don't really take care in helping me with my allergy because it doesn't affect them. And sadly, when something doesn't affect someone personally it seems like they don't really try as hard. But that was not the case with the staff members I dealt with today. Juniper and Sean Patrick showed me complete kindness, care and understanding. I can't be in charge of how they are rewarded, but they are deserving to at least be recognized if not more. They made me feel normal, like I wasn't a problem for asking to just simply eat food that I can eat. Most importantly, I know they care, and I feel safe eating here. And I think as someone who can barely eat anywhere, that's saying something. I will be returning to this Waffle House 10/10. And yes Sean Patrick, the food slapped.

    Really enjoy the lead cooks here, as well as the servers. They know how to make your experience quick and warm. The food every time we come is on point, I had to leave a review as it's picture perfect every time. Any questions or picky eaters with substitutions they are happy to accommodate. Be sure to get there early, seats fill up!

    Circa 81 is such a hidden gem. It doesn't feel overly fancy or stuffy, just really thoughtful food…read morein a relaxed, cool space. We ordered the Half Chef's Tour, which is their charcuterie, and it was honestly one of my favorite parts of the night. Great variety, really well balanced, and perfect for sharing. It set the tone for the whole meal. The scallop nightly special was perfectly cooked with that golden sear and super tender inside. The rosemary steak had so much flavor and was cooked exactly right. The Brussels were crispy and savory, and even the potstickers were a standout. Nothing felt like an afterthought. Service was perfect for the tapas setting too. Not rushed, we didn't feel over bothered, but not neglected either. Overall, it felt elevated but still comfortable. A great experience without feeling over the top. We'll definitely be back.

    Circa 81 quickly became one of my most memorable meals along North Carolina's Crystal Coast: a…read morerestaurant that understands both timing and tone. We arrived with a reservation (always a wise move), though we were seated immediately, greeted by a gracious host who set our lunch off on the right note. Once settled, we were welcomed by Philip, whose ease and genuine enthusiasm made the experience feel less transactional and more personal. He spoke about the menu with confidence and curiosity, the mark of someone who truly enjoys being there. Drinks came first: my husband ordered a Painkiller easily one of the best we had during our time on the coast while our son stuck with a classic Coke, and I opted for water. As we ordered, it became clear we were leaning fully into the small plates philosophy. When Philip smiled and dubbed us "tapas aficionados," it felt like an acknowledgment rather than a joke and in that moment, we felt perfectly at home. The table filled quickly. Spanish lamb meatballs arrived first, glazed with sriracha and paired with whipped feta and cilantro bold, balanced, and deeply satisfying. Pork pot stickers followed, tender and flavorful, with a soy-ginger dipping sauce and sweet Thai chili providing just the right contrast. The Gambas al Ajillo shrimp bathed in extra-virgin olive oil and garlic, served with crostini, was classic and comforting. But the standout was the Potatoes Bravas: sliced potatoes grilled to a crisp and finished with a spicy brava aioli. They were addictive in the best way, the kind of dish you keep thinking about long after the table is cleared. Circa 81 is polished yet relaxed, clean, and thoughtfully maintained, a place where the food arrives hot, the service feels human, and the atmosphere invites you to linger. It's a restaurant I would happily return to, and one that earned its place among my favorites on the Crystal Coast.
