We had dinner there last night. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. The bar tender even told me where to fish and what lures to use. I had the roasted chicken with fried spinach. It was served over rice and was very tasty and tender. My wife had sauteed black eyed pea cakes and said they were excellent

The best in Morehead...just a little loud on the busiest nights. Looking forward to next visit! Ingredients are fresh, food is exceptional without being necessarily inventive, but this place is a gem

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. My husband had the shrimp and grits and I had the herbed chicken with fried spinach. All the food was flavorful and wonderfully prepared. The spinach was flash-fried so it was crisp and SO tasty! We enjoyed talking to Brian and Karen the owners and chef/dessert chef/manager. It was obvious they enjoy what they do... More

In town working and found this terrific restaurant in Morehead City. Great quaint atmosphere. The service was superb. The owner's are directly involved as chef and his wife is in the front making sure everything ran well. She is also the dessert chef--must save room for dessert! The food was wonderful and creative with great flavors. This is a must... More

My friend had a Mahi Mahi special, perfectly prepared. Dessert was memorable with a spongy cake that was full of flavor, but not heavy on... More

I travel to Carteret County on business a lot and am always looking for a good seafood restaurant to try out. This one did not disappoint! It is in a cute little house so the atmosphere is great. Next time I plan to eat out on the front porch. The staff is super friendly and attentive. I had the crab... More

We had the good fortune to go to City Kitchen on a cool late-summer night and ate on the front porch. The food was extraordinary, from the collards with a smoky flavor to the shrimp and grits to the fish of the day. It was almost like being the guest at a private house, with one owner cooking while his... More
