My wife and I started eating at this restaurant in the late 1960s when we were in college at East Carolina. It was a tradition to eat here on the way back to ECU after a day at the beach at nearby Atlantic Beach. We recently ate here again following the ECU/Houston game that my college room mate and his significant other attended with us. The service and attention from the staff is as good as ever and the food was also. All the platters we had were ample and very tasty, from the broiled scallops and fish to the fried shrimp ... read more

Many families coming at the end of farming season taking a well deserved break, talking for weeks about their upcoming trips and always including the Sanitary as a "must do". The entire experience is the same year after year and that is fine wi... read more

Had the inshore catch of the day, grey trout. It was truly one of the best seafood meals I have had. Topped it off with some homemade lemon pie, divine!. The view was beautiful. The restaurant was clean. There was a live pianist playing beautiful standards. And above all, the service was superb. Colin, our server, was one of the best, attentive, personable with a smile.
