Emerald Isle NC area good eats?
Aqua in Beaufort is our fav., but we had a wonderful meal at Beaufort Grocery last week. When we don't want to leave the island, Portofino is really good Italian (pizza is fantastic) and kid friendly even though it's steps above a "family restaurant". Can dine in or out. Kathryn's Bistro and Martini Bar on the island continues to be consistent and very good with nice atmosphere. (Kathryn's and Portofino have same owner.) It's such a treat to talk about really good restaurants in Emerald Isle. That's a recent phenomenon. Can't leave out lunch specials at The Crab Shak in Salter Path or drinks at The Dock House in Beaufort where you will find the best people watching period.
