I bought a LivingSocial Deal and I went with a friend this Thursday to check the place out. We went in around 7:30 and the crowd was dying down. We were seated right away. I told the hostess I wanted coke, the waitress brought me Pepsi and as soon as I said Pepsi? She realized how I felt and offered to take it back right away and she brought me back sweet tea which was not in the ballpark of Bojangles or McDonald's but totally drinkable. They bring out a bowl of hushpuppies and butter. We ordered Demetri's Platter ($13.99) which had deviled crab, popcorn shrimp, flounder, oysters, scallops, and clams. It also came with a side and I got onion rings - perfectly respectable. My friend got a small entree of calabash style shrimp and fried okra ($8.99) and really liked it. We also both got free salad bar included with our entrees - I got salad and coleslaw off the bar and saved the coleslaw to have with my meal. I would not say that overall the atmosphere and the food add up to true outerbanks NC seafood but overall I'm pleased for a nearby place with good prices and pretty good food. I would go again. With my tea and both entrees the total was $25 so with my $20 LivingSocial Deal it was just $15 out of pocket total and we both took home plenty of leftovers. I thought the seafood was even better the next day. There was something on the menu called "Green Shrimp" we didn't check it out but apparently its just a measure of the size and its in between the popcorn and jumbo sizes. Also the man who appeared to be the owner greeted us when we came and checked on us about 10 minutes into eating our entrees to make sure everything was good. We also sat the LivingSocial deal voucher on the table as soon as we arrived and not for one minute did I think they treated us any different which sometimes I think places do. I like that they have small and large portions of many things. I would go back - for sure.
Good service, good food, good price. Thanks Pier 51!
