   Our server, Lyndsey, was great. Ambiance is good. Our group had a variety of selections from the menu. Three of us noted that our dishes were overly salted. My chicken and shrimp (piccata) were cooked well, but the amount of salt diminished the meal. Same went for the fish special, the greens were way too salty.

   The She Crab soup and hush puppies were very good. The Shrimp and Grits were pretty bland.

   LOVE this spot! We had amazing service and the food was really great! We ordered the lobster and grits - which was over the top …why hasn’t anyone else thought of this..??? And the shrimp and chicken piccata was perfect! Can’t wait to go back to this local gem - it is truly awesome

    Warmly greeted, and shown to the table. Specials were discussed and drink order taken. It was pretty noisy which lead to loud talking. Since this wasn’t a date, it wasn’t a big deal other than I thought I was yelling and everyone could hear what I was saying. The food was promptly served, and was delicious. We had crab stuffed flounder, the seafood platter and the whole fish of the day (warning it is served with the head on). Dessert - oh so good! Act quickly if you want the red velvet cake. A good night with good friends and good food!! Highly recommend.

    Neither my friend nor I was thrilled with our meal. My friend said the tastes were too strong and she did not eat all of her meal. My lobster and grits was very salty and I had asked for light on the bacon yet it was not light. Food was our issue.

    Our dinner tonight on New Year’s Eve at TOPSAIL was Outstanding! Ryan was our waiter, and he was so knowledgeable, positive, and professional. We were a party of seven, and everyone enjoyed their meals! We enjoyed Salmon, Bronzeno Sea Bass, Scallops, Lobster, Crab Cake, Shrimp, and Blackened Tuna. Everything was absolutely Wonderful!!!

    We’ve driven past this gem many times and it never looked crowded so we assumed it must not be that good. We saw a recent post in our neighborhood app that shared otherwise so we decided to try it. And boy are we glad we did! It was excellent! The food, the music and the server were all fantastic. We enjoyed a great bottle of wine however the cocktails didn’t make the mark. Don’t miss the mussels!

    Can’t say enough about how delicious our meal was. My husband and I were visiting our oldest son who lives in Mount Pleasant and decided to try Topsail because we wanted good seafood. I got the seafood platter. It was huge and my first thought was there would be a lot left over until I took my final bite and the plate was empty. My husband got the whole fish which was an incredibly delicious branzino. Our son got the Salmon and raved over each bite. Last but not least we shared the delectable chocolate dessert. Our server was funny and warm and never let our water glasses get empty. We were smiling a lot because of the sensational tastes. We will be returning to this restaurant on our next visit. Everything about the place was cozy and comfortable while the food was upscale and so thoughtfully prepared. Thank you from wait staff to bar to kitchen to management for a tasty and wonderful evening at your restaurant. Not sure how this place could ever receive a bad review. Simply outstanding!

    Service was great and 2 of 3 dinners were excellent. The flounder stuffed with crab was a bit underwhelming in flavor. It’s a bit pricey with dinners averaging around $40, not including appetizers or drinks. I definitely recommend Topsail for special occasions.

    As always, Ryan was not only an excellent bartender but superior Topsail "host"; yes, the pours are great also.....and Happy Hour was extended to 7pm! Yeahhhh! We love this and are definitely making this our go to Happy Hour stop! And my, oh my .....Ryan's Jalapeno Margaritas are amazing! Joel, our server was spot on with his recommendations and was able to manage our somewhat loud (very fun) gathering and knew exactly when to check on us and when to stay away!! Kudos to Topsail and the great staff. We will be back!

    This was an unexpected find! The chef should be going places. Our main course was to perfection. Not sure I've ever had a better fish dish. Service was friendly, if not a little too much. One recommendation I would make is for an upgrade to the dessert menu; although tasty, it was obviously commercially purchased. I recommend Topsail and will be back again.
