I have eaten here a half dozen times and always have had a good meal. I really think the fried platters (Shrimp, Oysters, and/or Scallops) are the best around at a reasonable price. Other items are good, not great. Sometimes the service is a little slow but always friendly.I look forward to my next trip to St. James

The new owners of Rusty Hooks Dockside Grill are excited to open our doors to the public. The restaurant located in the South Harbour Village Marina overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway. We encourage our guests to kick back, enjoy the view, and hit the pau

This is the restaurant formerly known as the Dead End Saloon, located at the marina at the end of Fish Factory Road, with a view of the intercoastal waterway. Having frequented the previous establishment, we are pleased that the restaurant has been reopened for several months under new ownership with a new name. A number of changes have been made: a new entry heading directly into the dining area, rather than through the bar. The walls of the dining area have been decorated more tastefully and it is quieter with the doors shut to the bar. Dinner conversations are easier now. The food is similar, though the prices are a bit higher. Fish and Chips, Crab Cakes, mussels are our favorite choices.Thank you, Fred! We are glad you enjoy the changes and look forward to seeing you during your next visit. You really can't go wrong with any of those choices. My favorite is the blackened Mahi tacos - give them a try, and let me know what you think.

Oyster pub specializing in coastal Southern cooking with a wide array of hard-to-get bourbons, delicious wines, and craft beers in scenic Southport!

I can't say enough good things about this place! The oysters were great and fresh. We did an array of appetizers and oysters. Lobster rangoons are made fresh daily! The service was top notch as well! Brody was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He is a total asset to this restaurant! Ally and Ryan were also very pleasant and accommodating. We made it a point to visit Moore Street Oyster Bar twice in our week in the Carolina's because it's just that great!!! We will be back!

This is a restaurant located on the water. For the best experience, sit outside and enjoy the view! The food and service are excellent. I especially enjoyed the ambience of the outside dining. The food is really fresh and incredible. Most of the seafood is local and tastes fresh and has a great presentation. The clam chowder is some of the best I've had.

We recently have had dinner several times over the summer. The menu features fresh local seafood, and has amazing homemade sweet potato biscuits. You can have your fish grilled, fried, or blackened. I also enjoyed the shrimp and corn chowder. Lovely view from inside or out on the deck.

Exquisite dining on the Cape Fear-where southern cuisine and exceptional wines and spirits meet the salubrious breezes of Southport.
Reviewed By Onthebacknine
Stopped in for lunch and were promptly seated. Service by Lectoria was outstanding. We were in a bit of a rush and she helped us navigate the menu quickly and ensured that our orders were timely. We started with the Jimmy Shrimp, which were excellent, followed by the softshell BLT and the southern burger. Both of the mains were great. Nice selection of beer. Overall, good value.

A longtime Southport institution, one of the top dining spots in town. Low Country-leaning menu. Good wine list
