Edenton Bay Oyster

Excellent meal! Service was great too. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

We felt this was an odd visit. The food we ordered was great a little on the expensive side, but tasted good and fresh. We were greeted by, do you have a reservation? As out of towners, of course we didn 't. We were told we were in luck because they happened to have a table, right beside of the host stand. Not what we would have chosen, but we were glad to get in. We learned quickly that no one else coming had a reservation, but they got other choices for seating that we would have taken, had we know it was an option. Then we heard they were out of quite a few things. Since the menu was already rather small, that was disappointing, but understandable for a scratch made kitchen. I had hoped for oysters but found that none of their options were local (other than technically James River). Sampled a few but settled on NC shrimp. It was cooked perfectly, well seasoned, and delicious. For the price, I would have appreciated a side item, but it was a good portion of shrimp. The menu prices and employee dress suggested a higher class dining experience, but the atmosphere dodnt quite match. Overall it was ok and I would probably give them another chance if in the area.

I thought it was great!! The food was excellent and our waitress was lovely. Everything was really tasty! We had the tuna lettuce wraps, saffron oysters, the maple salmon, and the scallops (the included chowder also really flavorful) and top to bottom no lack luster dishes. No complaints at all.

This is the only negative experience we had in edenton. my adult daughter and I came to dinner at 17 o'clock when they open. we had no reservation and were told there were no tables available. we asked if we could sit on the bar and she answered, I guess we went by to check the bar area and see sitting outside. all (approx. 4) of the tabs were open. these tables are on the water. we asked the hostess whether outside seats are available and she said it was! After we helped her find us a seat, we sat outside under a dach and had a nice meal. our server was great and regularly checked for us.
