Love the theme and decor at this place, the fish and chips were solid very lightly breaded and fresh. The crab was a little over cooked for me but still flavorful.

I’ve had such great experiences at this beach front restaurant/bar. The service from everyone who works here is top notch. I highly recommend the food and drinks. Love this atmosphere on the boardwalk.

Great place to people watch while you enjoy food and drinks. The calamari was VERY different in a great way. There was no dipping sauce, which is different, but tasted awesome. Shrimp tacos were flavorful. Prices were good and matched well with type of food served. I would definitely eat here again.

This place had mixed reviews, but we decided to give it a shot. I will admit that their fish and chips were the best we had while visiting Carolina Beach. Our server was polite and catering even though my wife and I don't require much. The margaritas were on point. I do recommend this place for lunch.

Super nice staff, the seafood boil we shared was absolutely delicious, and the drinks were great. The waiter who helped us (never got his name, my apologies) was very friendly and courteous with our family member who's hard of hearing.

What a wonderful beachside restaurant! They had a Christmas seafood boil and it truly made the holiday feel special. Thank you to everyone who sacrificed a family Christmas to help us have a perfect day. It meant a lot. We will be back for sure!

This is a neat place to eat. We sat outside and had a great experience. Victoria was our server, and she did a great job looking after us. The food came out fast, and most of it was delicious. I did not care for the claim chowder, but everything else was delicious. The fried shrimp were amazing.
