Reviews for Corolla Cantina in Corolla, NC
Rude staff. The hours listed on Google Maps and the light on the doors said they were open but the bartender essentially yelled... at us as soon as we walked in to leave. Music was playing outside, as well, so there was no indication at all they weren't open.If there was, my mistake entirely for missing it, but I can't get over the bartender. If they hadn't so rude, we might haveconsidered going back, but nope. Edit: *Definitely* won't be giving them a chance after looking through the other reviews andreading the owner's responses. Completely unprofessional and unless you're blowing smoke with decent reviews, I guess they don'tcare! Edit No. 2: In response to the owner, I'm actually very happy you were able to close and give your staff a break! I knowbartenders and servers work really hard and deserve it, but my issue was with the attitude we got. I guess you didn't read allof it before formulating a response, though. :) So for your sake, I really hope you do "got this," bud! Read more
I'm always curious to read the reviews of other folks, esp when there is such a disparity in stars! In any case, we had a great... time. My husband, myself and our Lab mix popped by after a day at the local beach. We drove up from Kitty Hawk just to see a newplace in OBX. The hostess was very kind and helped us get a shady spot outside for our pooch, and we only waited a few min. Wedid NOT sit inside and so have no idea what the inside atmosphere is like. Our server was such a gentleman and so attentive. Thefrozen lime marg was perfect and my husband LOVED the skinny marg with jalapenos!!! It had a true jalapeno flavor with the heat,too. I got the crabcake dinner and it was amazing. Slaw has cilantro in it which we LOVE. We even got two cocktails to go so wecould walk to see the sunset! I also have to shout out the other server working that day - a family had two tables, one ofadults and a separate one that was their kids of varying ages. The older kids were doing a good job with the younger ones but itwas still organized chaos! The server was patient and seemed to anticipate their needs. Hope they tipped well because she wentabove and beyond. Read more

Let me start by saying this is a cozy spot. It's convenient to Corolla Inn and surrounded by other restaurants. We were greeted... on entry and seated. I thought of leaving as they had just cleaned the table but the smell from the rag was sour. There wereflies and I said nope we should leave. We decided to stay. I ordered chicken tacos from the kids menu which was just choppedchicken in flour tortillas. The chicken was well seasoned with not taco seasoning, the jerk sandwich was laughable. I had thetuna steak bowl with jasmine rice, salsa and guacamole. The rice was not jasmine rice, the guacamole was not edible, the salsawas really watery. The chips were also not edible. I had a virgin Pina colada that was not a Pina or colada. Just a coconutslushie and barely. I give 3 stars for the customer service. Update: 7/29/22: I removed a star for the "owner's response below.I came to eat NOT to have fun. How this place has 4.1 stars is beyond me. Read more
Great service and great food - wide selection; good for a quick snack or a full meal. We are gluten free; staff very... knowledgeable and lots of options. We had the shrimp, nachos & coconut rice Read more
So, kinda wanted some tacos, chips & salsa, and a burrito after the beach. The menu was okay, unusual combination of Mexican,... seafood, and random stuff. (No bowls of chips and salsa to start, bummer.) Also, a bit overpriced. I will say the wait staff wassuper friendly and the restaurant was comfortable. Read more
