Open Water Grill - Hatteras

This restaurant is permanently closed and is now Po House, Good Eats Libations.

Very good food for reasonable price. Signature cocktails were also very good. Would come again!

Where to start??? Beautiful view, and restaurant. Too bad the food was disgusting. We had Asian clams, not Hatteras clams in some kind of wierd broth. I Googled them, I'd never seen white clams with a black stripe before. My husbands crab mac and cheese had no crab, a little bacon in Kraft style pasta. I had the shrimp and grits. No flavor at all. My Daughter had an Asian chicken salad that definately had frozen nuggets in it. My Son-In-Law ordered the pork ribs. They were so tough, the restaurant told us they were cooked wrong, and they were taken off the bill by them. Not worth a $200. plus bill. Small portions, tasteless food. Stay away!

The food, service and view was excellent! Great dinner in our favorite vacation spot!

Walked into the empty restaurant on a Friday afternoon; seated quickly. Admired the decor and view. Ordered drinks and an appetizer of Calamari. Drinks came 30 minutes later. We ordered main courses; I got Crab Mac and cheese. Another 45 minutes later the main course comes WITH MY APPETIZER. The calamari was cold, rubbery, and tasteless. After finishing that I asked for a refill on my drink which took 10 minutes. I began to eat my entree. It was overly cheesy and had little crab in it. The little crab in it tastes frozen. And it’s 23$ for the Mac and cheese and 11$ for the calamari. Both aren’t great. Afterwards I decided to go for dessert as I couldn’t finish either plates because of how bad they were. I got the fried cheesecake and shared it with my family. It’s the only thing I can recommend from this place. It was nice. It had a crunchy outer layer and a soft cheesecake inside. It had raspberry syrup on top of it. Incredibly sweet. Come here for this cheesecake and only the cheesecake. +0.5 Star for decor and view+0.5 Star for service. +1 Star for cheesecake.
