“ Run, don't walk to Boardwok South. Fresh, delicious food. Had the crab cake special, literally the best crab cakes on the island and I've tried them all. Friendly, attentive staff. I'm only sorry, we didn't try it sooner as island residents. ”
“ Recently ordered Takeout during my trip, it was my second time ordering from Boardwok. The staff is so friendly, the food is great and comes in a generous portion. The best part is they offer veggie dishes (perfect for non-meat eaters like me) and a doggie treat of boiled chicken and rice! Their dog treat side saved me on this trip because my travel-anxious pup was not interested in his regular food--Boardwok was a life-saver! Will order here every time I'm in town! ”
“ We LOVED this little hidden gem. Our party of 4 loved everything we ordered! This is a little family run business and you can tell! We started with eggrolls ( huge and packed with pork and cabbage, I especially liked the hot mustard) and the sweet potato fries to share. The dipping sauces were so yummy. I also got a side salad with their house vinaigrette. This dressing was SO yummy we bought two bottles to take with us. For dinner, we also got the cajun tuna (DELISH and a HUGE portion), the general tso's, fried rice with shrimp, and the shrimp with broccoli. All were excellent! We forgot our dressings to go and called the owners when we remembered, although they only open for dinner, they met us on our way out of town DAYS LATER at 9am to get them to us. They truly went above and beyond. This will be a regular stop for us when in OBX. ”
“ Food here is very good. Partial to the Seafood Lo Mein and Chicken&Broc. A hidden gem! ”
“ This place is one of our faves in Waves! The owner is super nice. The food is really delicious. Every thing is very fresh. Sometimes they have specials like crab cakes or mom’s home made dessert. You should give it a try right away! ”
“ Got their chicken and broccoli both times. Food was really good. Ran into a local lady Debby who was eating a huge steak, she said their steaks are really good. Didn’t get the opportunity to try them Out. Good service and Ty the guy who bartends and attends to folks dining in is really nice to talk to. ”
