About

This place is a staple for many heading to the Outer Banks, known for its burnt ends and hush puppies. While many locals and tourists swear by it as a must-stop, recent reviews suggest a decline in quality and consistency. Some diners find the portions small for the price, while others still love the down-home vibe and variety of sauces. It remains a popular, if polarizing, choice for road-trippers.
