This is a massive restaurant with nice exposure to the sound. Background music was standard supermarket type of sound. The waiting staff was very attentive and helpful. Food was very good. We were three people and we all liked our entrées. We had a Margarita cocktail, classic, it didn't appear to be freshly made. We would come back, for the food, but not for the atmosphere.
I want to start off by describing how amazing the massive amount of rosemary bushes all around the place are. The entire back of the restaurant seems to be lined with them and it smells fantastic! They also have a garden with tons of peppers and an area that is clearly recycled and repurposed items. So the outside is amazing and includes a very close view of an osprey nest. Talk to the staff and they can give you more insight about their "mascot". Inside is pretty awesome with a very authentic beach vibe. The food is good and priced fairly. We will definitely be back to check this place out and get some more story about the osprey family.
Service was great! Everyone was extremely friendly. The atmosphere and the view was relaxing and comfortable. The food was good but not great. The food came quickly which was good, but it was not hot. Seasoning and flavor was off , not quite up to scale for the Outer Banks.
Have never had a bad meal here. It's worth every penny they ask. I usually get the medium size plate because the big ones always knock me out. Its a TON of food, but it tastes so good you can't stop eating it!
Also Riley is the best behind the bar and nothing beats eating on the deck at sunset on a summer night(if you have a party of 4 or less its cozy out there.)
