It was my birthday and they went above and beyond. I had a wonderful experience.

Impressed with finding this great restaurant in a small beach town. The food was delicious! We had a mishap and our food was given to a table behind us. The error was found quickly and we were notified. The manager came out to personally apologize and offered us a dessert on the house, so 5-stars for the service. The floor plan is open, so it was a bit noisy but that’s not enough to deter us from going again.

First of all the service was amazing..our server was very kind, friendly and attentive.. I wish I could remember her name! The food was equally as great! Highly recommend the Roasted bone marrow..the French Onion Fondue, Pistachio Crusted Tuna, Beef Medallions, the mixed drinks did not disappoint! We will go out of our way to visit again!

Went tonight for my birthday & they did not disappoint.
For appetizers we had the fresh bread & mussels, drinks were teas & a tin can.
Entrees we had the duck with pork belly, jasmine rice & mixed veggies & the beef medallions with mushroom risotto, blistered tomatoes & asparagus. Dessert we took tiramisu to-go. Everything was delicious!
The server was exceptionally great & attentive. The atmosphere was calm & efficient & the restaurant was clean & seemed to be running drama free. Very relaxing environment with fantastic food & service. Definitely a place worth trying if you haven’t been & worth going back. Thanks!

Service is great, atmosphere is cool and unique, but the food is amazing.
First, the crab cakes. Yes, they are that good. Go early, order extra.
The goat cheese crouton is the sleeper you need to try, no matter what you order. Eat it with the greens or any beef dish, it's phenomenal.
And you can't miss with any of the seafood, from the raw to the scallops. Perfectly handled, every time.

The restaurant is on the third floor and also has a rooftop bar when the weather is cooperating. This is a fine dining experience. You can add shrimp, scallops or crabcakes to a steak if you want the surf and turf experience. Everything we've had here is excellent. I've never been much of a scallop person but I am when I eat here. The scallops are the best I've eaten.

Very nice place, good fine dining, friendly atmosphere and staff, and clean.
Update: The first review was in 2021. This review is dated for 8/22/23. I first want to say Thank you to Michael for accommodating my family and I. We were about to leave due to the young lady at the entrance saying their wasn't any tables and we could sit at the bar or she has a table which must be given back at 7:15 pm it was already 6:23 pm she wasn't friendly, she didn't ask how many was with us and she just stared blankly at us. I realize some people reserve tables but we have never been treated in that manner before at this restaurant in the past nor any other. I know everyone who came in before nor after had reservations. I picked up a lie in my spirit but I'm thankful for Michael assisting us. The next visit we will reserve our time. I did not want to take away a star due to what happened because the food was so delicious and we couldn't eat everything so we carried the remainder home. My entire family was excited about our trip and we planned to eat at Caribsea before we came to emerald isle. I'm so thankful we weren't disappointed. Also our server was a very nice gentleman he did an excellent job taking our orders, explaining everything, making sure we had everything and was ok. My order did get undercooked and he made sure they cooked it longer because he did let them know how I desired it cooked. I'm very grateful for our server and the cooks are amazing. Updated pictures on this visit begin with the shrimp and the oysters you'll see again its one of our favorite appetizers. The surf and turf steak and crab with potatoes and asparagus was beyond amazing as well. It was a special for the evening.😋

Nothing in the area can even compare to what these guys are doing here. I’m no stranger to kitchens and can tell you that the only element required to push that caliber of food out is effort. This effort should very well be rewarded with a corresponding price tag. Finally, a spot in a 30 mile radius that can be fancy enough for a proper date or anniversary, or simply a guilty pleasure dinner.
Our waitress Samaria was adorable, attentive, knowledgeable, and professional. The manager makes rounds around the restaurant ensuring everything is up to their high standards.
The food is hearty, well seasoned, with respect to authenticity, and elements of innovation involved. Loved every bite of every dish presented. No silly gimmicks, stunts, or gold flakes. Just decadent recipes executed properly.
Couldn’t be happier with my experience. Will certainly be back!
