Reviews for Gaffer's in Emerald Isle, NC
Thursday is prime rib night and you get a 12 or 16 oz piece of meat with green beans and a potato or rice. If you're watching... carbs, you can substitute fresh fruit for the potato, which I've never seen before, but being borderline type 2 diabetic, I wentfor it. Service is friendly and they have lots of outside seating if the weather is nice. Read more
Good solid food at a reasonable price. The Seafood Linguine was particularly good. The Blackened Shrimp Nachos starter was a... massive amount of food so bear that in mind if it is just two of you. For a Friday night over the summer the place was packedbut the service was very efficient. Patio was ok but the chairs inside looked much more comfortable. Read more
Pretty great experience on a busy Sunday evening. Reasonable wait... plenty of space outside to sit and enjoy a drink from the... bar in the meantime. Service was fast, efficient and friendly... It's always positive when someone's excited about their mealrecommendations. Really loved the blackened tuna. Another manager of my party had the mahi, but it was a bit dry. All in all,definitely will be back when in staying in the area! Read more
Ben was our server and he was attentive and excellent, predicting any need. The hostess was really sweet and on point as well!... They were very kind to our doggies as we sat outside on the patio, which can accommodate a lot of people! No being crammed inhere. We had margaritas, hush puppies, shrimp nachos (sounded weird but were AMAZING) and fish tacos w street corn. Everythingwas seriously amazing! I?ve told all my family to come here while they visit. Small kids have a nice area to play outside and aoutside bar so parents can relax and play too. My only regret is finding this place the last night we are here. I would of comemultiple times this week! Til next time;)) Read more
It was crazy busy on a Wednesday night in July. We waited over an hour to be seated - 3 of us. There was a live singer who did a... good job with the crowd. The crowd loved him and participated singing and responding. But we came to meet an old friend wehadn't seen in many years. Most everyone was drinking an alcoholic beverage, even during the long wait to be seated. Problemwas, we were seated very close in front of the singer and his speakers. We literally yelled to speak with each other. When oneperson spoke, it had to be repeated to the next. There was singing consistently until 9PM, just the time we paid an over $70bill & tip for two Gaff sandwiches, onion rings and water. Nice outdoor patio. Very considerate wait staff. Nice facility. It ismore like a bar that serves good food. Read more
We tried this restaurant on a whim and we were NOT disappointed! The service was awesome, I believe our servers name was... Kimberly. Her, along with the manager on duty, were very friendly and informative about the restaurant. We got fried Mahi and aburger, both very good. If you get a chance, try the Atlantic Beach Pie. Honestly one of the best desserts I?ve ever had! Read more
Highly recommended! Delicious food, amazing customer service. My husband absolutely loved his lobster, he said it was the best... he?s had. My burger was very delicious too, and my son loved his grilled cheese sandwich. The desserts were amazing, the cremebrûlée was yummy! We had a wonderful time, we will be visiting again soon. ????????

We have been 3 times now. First time, got the calm chowder and hush puppies. Hard no. Next time, tried their gaff... taters?amazing. My basic :) Husband got the ones without ranch and wants them all the time. Our son (basic like his dad) lovestheir bbq boneless wings. They aren?t the types to try anything way outside of their comfort zones so half of the menu is offlimits for them. My daughter has gotten the salmon before and loved it as well. Overall, food is good. Outside atmosphere isdefinitely better than inside so go when the weather is nice, have a beer or mermaid punch, and relax. Read more
