''What happened???? Food not like last year. Couldn't wait to eat here again, now disapointted. Don't know if new owners took over or what. Hope it goes back to how it was. Was favorite spot to eat. Something is just not right. Hate to see such a nice place go sour. Helen and friends if your reading, not like last year....''

''We thought the food was pretty good - ate there for lunch one day. Husband said the Wahoo was fantastic. Crabcake sandwich just so-so. Service was good the day we were there although the management was having a run-in with customers who were evidently walking out on the bill. Always nice to have a little drama with your meal. LOL. Would probably go back....''

''We had the best time a couple of weeks ago. ALL the staff were WONDERFUL! The food was great and the bartender was funny!...''

''The view is beatiful unfortunately the best food we had was only mediocre....''

''well, this was the first restraunt we ate at on our first trip ever to obx. it was ok, a bit pricy, and i was absolutely shocked to find out there was no kids menu!!! so you mean to tell me that i am going to have to pay 15 bucks for a plate of food that my 1 and 4 year old may or may not eat? i dont think so! we probably will not be back due to this. i mean really, who doesnt have a kids menu at the beach??!?!?!?!??!?! obviously dolphin den!...''

''This place is the most discusting restaurant I have ever been in. It was unclean and the buffet tables were so old and nasty. The wait for the restroom was about 20 minutes and you dont even want to hear about them!!...''

''geat breakfast and lunches, diners - not fine dinning - but great food and fun, a must stop for anyone in the area....''

''The secret spot is no longer a secret.their fish tacos are awesome.their scallop plate should be world famous. Can not wait til my next visit to try the Pad Thai........''

''I have been experiencing the Black Pelican since I was a little girl, many summers were spent in the Outer Banks of NC! The pizza is the best, ever. And is always a stop on the way in and out! Now most people go for the seafood, but families travailing with picky eaters, this is a much favored rest. The seafood is great, and I know my grandpa loves the wine. But how many places serve kids' pizzas on a Frisbee? Where you can run to the sandy beach and play a game before loading back into the car?...''

''We visited Miller's Waterfront because we thought we would get fresh seafood.. ocean... seafood... Makes sense, right? There was no lobster selection on the menu, I have had better seafood from upstate NY. The service was ok, nothing special, the waiter was not overly friendly. Ambience was nothing special either, except after dinner you can step out on the pier. I would not recommend this restaurant or ever visit again. It was a big dissapointment....''

''Uncomfortable and unaccommodating. Pretentious and it would not surprise me if the host in the previous post was the owner--I knew him years ago--we worked together for a couple of years and when I saw him a year and a half later, he pretended he did not know me...gimme a break...so many GOOD restaurants on the OBX, don't waste your money here!...''

''enjoyed the restaurant throughly...''

''this food is the best thing going on here? felt like I was eating in a cafeteria? who designed this place? shoot the designer. seems like someone rushed to build this one?...''

''This has to be the best seafood I have had along with the crab dip! The crab dip was delicious. The fried shrimp were crispy and not greasy. We will be back....''

''so much food...such a beautiful view...such nice service! this was the best meal (other than homecooked) we had on the island! we loved this place!!! we will definitely be back for more!...''

''comming back to the flying melon was probibly the best idea in the world it has the best coconut shrimp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...''

''This is a small local run seafood restaurant. The owner and cooks are fishermen and it's the real deal. I love the fried shrimp and flounder. They also have very friendly staff. This is the true experience of local living. This is a small restaurnt, if you really must bring a large party have a beer and chill out. Looks like they are expanding, last time I was in there they had some construction going on....''

''My daughters wedding reception was held at the Captain's Table. I cannot rave enough about the restaurant, the staff, the owner or the awesome meal that was served. I whole heartedly recommend the establishment. Donna, the owner, is one in a million. She went way out of her way to provide excellent service and even pulled a miracle cake doctor out of her bag when the wedding cake that was provided by a third party was a pile of mush....''

''great steamed shrimp. the atmosphere is a locals bar but interesting. If busy food service can be slow but worth waiting for. If you are looking for a steam bar with local flavor Pop's is the best...''

''When I called Prime Only Steakhouse, I asked them if their steaks were as good as advertised. The owner told me that they have been compared to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and Mortons. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that they were even better than Ruth's Chris and Mortons and on top of that, they are less expensive. this is a MUST Dine, if going to the Outer BAnks...''

''Over the years the Breakwater has remained a mainstay on the Outer Banks. Although you can count on the ''Fat Daddy Crabcakes'' to appease, many of the entrees lack the pizazz of the past. Certainly worth the trip though....''

''I have to be honest I didn't think this place would be that great by the way it looks on the outside. However, our large crowd really liked it. Tons of great seafood. The waitress was very friendly and was especially good with all the children at the table. We will definitely return next trip down....''

''If you are in the mood for tapas, Metropolis is the place. Great wine list, wonderful martini list, and excellent tapas. There are obviously better places in Corolla for a traditional ''dinner'', but it's excellent for its niche....''
