    The experience met our expectations in every way. The host greeted us promptly, and our server Julia was both knowledgeable and efficient. The bartender and other staff members delivered our drinks to the table, and the manager also checked in on us, demonstrating a clear teamwork dynamic. The staff's well-rehearsed coordination was evident, resulting in a seamless experience. The food was outstanding - I particularly enjoyed the catfish etouffee, which was well worth the price and more. Overall, a 5-star experience.

Discover Southport

Southport is a coastal city with renowned waterside beauty and early American history. It has been dubbed "America's Happiest Seaside Town." Being on the Atlantic Ocean, it's no surprise that New England seafood is in high demand here. You'll find some of the freshest steamed, grilled, fried and raw shellfish available. There are also loads of turf options. Steak and stuffed pork tenderloin are easy to get, and you might even find rabbit on some menus. Long wine lists are almost as common as lobster in Southport, and every restaurant seems to offer a sweeping view of the picturesque port that gave the city its name.
