Inner Banks Restaurants

Took our two boys (12 & 7) for a Christmas Eve Dinner. While my husband and I have dined here before, this was a first for us to bring the kids and I was blown away by how accommodating and kind they were to our family of 4. Yes, they offer kids menus and crayons (we did not know this before booking the reservation! ) The owner came to visit our table several times and took our boys to see the kitchen and meet the team! The kids tried most of the appetizers that my husband and I ordered and surprisingly loved many of the dishes! When we asked them about their favorite part- it was meeting the chef and owner and his kitchen! What the staff may not know is that my husband is also in the industry. This was a late reservation because our family from out of town got sick and couldn’t visit. This was one of the best nights we have had in a while as a family and the staff and owner couldn’t have made it more special! For reference- we ordered the oysters, she crab soup and shrimp (10/10) and the scallops (cooled perfectly) and olive appetizer (flavors were delicious!) Ask for an order of bread and butter. Its not on the menu but all of us thoroughly enjoyed it! We also got the mushroom pasta and the crab cakes. The pasta wasn’t as good as some of the pasta dishes we have had in past visits, but overall the food and service continues to be outstanding! Thank you Chef, owner and wife and the rest of the staff! We know you have families that waited for you to come home tonight and truly appreciate the memory you made for our family !

Sandra is the best! Always 100% on point with service. Food was beyond excellent!!

Great menu with many app, main, steak and seafood selections. We did not get a salad but wish we would have. We saw them on other tables afterward, and the chop salad in particular looked fresh and delicious, and a great size to share. We had the lamb chop lollipop app, pan seared rockfish, ribeye, and sides of baked potato and asparagus. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted delicious! Way better of a value than I had expected! $190 for two, including all the above with one glass of wine and 2 sodas. David was a great server!

Great friends and food! Wonderful place to enjoy a nice evening!

Excellent meals were had by all! The shrimp and grits were amazing! So was the fresh catch, chicken parm, beef stroganoff and the pasta! Always excellent food and service.
