Portside Grill & Bar

Great place to sit down and unwind and relax

Awesome bar & grill with good music, live music on Saturdays and Mondays. Other reviewers claim that wait times for food is long but ignore the fact that ALL FOOD IS MADE ON THE DOCK WITHOUT A KITCHEN!! One or two people operate 2 grills for almost 100 people on some days, which is not easy. Please take into consideration how the food has to be made and HOW MANY PEOPLE PACK INTO THIS PLACE WITH ONLY 1 OR 2 COOKS! New owners are fantastic, such an amazing improvement over the horrible, nasty previous owners. No, they do not have the same wing sauce as the old owners, but that sauce sat on shelves for years and was highly against health codes, hence why it is no longer served. Great place and people!

Very casual, cool bar set up on the dock by the Virginia Dare. They only serve beer and wine, and the wings are incredible. Don't expect anything to happen quickly there. The service is awful at best. The staff is friendly, but they seem to get overwhelmed if there are more than two people there.

Food is good but long wait times, seems like they are under staffed. It's a small place so it gets crowed very fast. Nice lake views and atmosphere.

New management and it was really good. Still no liquor license as the SML rumors promised so it only gets the 4-star until I can come here and forget how I got home yesterday afternoon. I like to call that "time travel."
