We’ve been coming to the OBX for 50yrs and have eaten many places. This is still our favorite, we get a little dressed up and go every year for that ‘special meal’ of the week. What makes it special? Everything: beautiful location, real table cloths and napkins, excellent food & drink, friendly & efficient wait staff and as a bonus a nice little selection of jewelry. It is also nice to see many of the same faces year after year.

Awesome service. Staff was very helpful and gracious. I had the stuffed lobster and a cup of she crab soup, both were very good. My son had a steak which was cooked the way it was requested and very tasty. I definitely would recommend.

The overall ambiance was nice. We were seated with a view of the water which was nice. Stephanie was our waitress and she was incredible! The food was great and I have no complaints.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by an absolutely stunning view of the sound and heard live music in the distance. The staff were very polite and knowledgeable. The drinks and food were absolutely delicious and reasonably priced for a fine dining establishment. We will definitely be returning as soon as we can.
