My mom, sister, and I came here for dinner and are glad we made the trip. Itâs a little off the beaten path, but it was worth it. Definitely get the oysters. They were the best part of our dinner. The hushpuppies were also delicious. Itâs hard to beat the view too.

Good food in cute primitive atmosphere. Waitress very nice but seating overall lacked coordination. Kids meals overpriced, fried pickles good but salty. Recommend firecracker shrimp (generous appetizer), deviled crab. Sells T-shirts, can seat large parties.

Food is overpriced and the seafood is not fresh or local. Tastes like it was microwaved. Service was TERRIBLE. Just TERRIBLE. Staff is very very rude. We are locals and have dined here a couple of time purely out of convenience but the last time the owner Mary Ann was so rude and the staff so incompetent it is better just to spend our dollars somewhere else. Guys you will be disappointed. Go somewhere else

Silver Hill Grill remains the best TAKEOUT fried seafood in the Holden Beach area for the price. The fish sandwich (whiting) was a decent size filet and tasty, and is a different type than the filet served as a meal (which was dry and rubbery and had skin on the bottom). The scallops and clams are so sweet, and the shrimp are small but nicely breaded and delicious. The oysters are also really good. Fries and slaw are just meh. Time your order carefully, however, because it is a small operation, and they are usually swamped and typically running behind. We called at 5:10 and were told a 40 minute wait; arrived 50 mins later and had a 10 minute wait while they packed it up hot out of the fryer. Was totally worth the wait, you just have to have the proper mindset because it has always been this way. Weâve always had friendly service. I would not want to eat in here as itâs a trailer with just a covered area outside and the wait would be wayyy too long. Remember: their shrimp burger is just fried shrimp on a burger roll; itâs not like a Provision Co. shrimp burger.

We ordered online for delivery. Had trouble at first but were able to get some help when I called. In fact, Pete himself brought the food to our place. Had shrimp, very good. We would like to go sit down there sometime. A little pricey but to be expected with a beach restaurant.

10 of us went for an early dinner and were very pleased with the food and service! The fried Mac and cheese was AMAZING! The shrimp tacos were great also! The potato skin weâre good too. We will definitely return! ***The ONLY complaint I have is: the buffalo popcorn shrimp is NOT âbuffaloâ it BBQ sauce. It would be much better if it was buffalo style like it called. Thank you for both your patronage and for posting such generous comments regarding our business. We work very hard to ensure that we please wonderful customers like you. Thank you for validating that we are accomplishing that goal.

The view is so good itâs distracting! But it also helps you relax and sip your wine just a bit slower. The food was excellent with large portions. Weâll probably try to split a meal next time. She had shrimp and scallops; I had flounder and shrimp grilled and might try blackened next time for a little more jolt. The sides were very good as were the hush puppies. Excellent meal and excellent service. Thank you so much for coming and for your excellent comments on the food, service and view. We hope that you will come again. Gratefully, Inlet View

We were told by a friend to visit this restaurant and Iâm so glad we did. It has a very laid back feel with indoor and outdoor seating. Right across the street from the ocean with amazing views. We were seated quickly and had a friendly server. They have a really good drink menu if your into that. Reasonable prices for seafood. They have a menu with something for everyone, including kids. We had the house speciality, the seafood Mac and cheese and holy moly it was delish. We also ordered the fish sandwich and it was really tasty tilapia coated in almonds. Our appetizer was chips and salsa and the chips were my favorite part of the meal!!! You must get them. They reminded me of fry bread and were incredibly. The salsa was homemade and was so flavorful. I highly recommend it. We did wait quite a while for our food, but the place was busy, so it was expected. Luckily the view kept us entertained. Overall this is a place we would highly recommend and go back to on every visit here to Ocean Isle.

The perfect joint for the true taste of North Carolina coastal fishing villages and the corresponding seafood. Shrimpburgers are amazing and the grouper recipe is the best. What's even better it's open air dining if it's not too cold and no mosquitos.... Downhome friendly service and just fun. Never a disappointment.
