Jinks Creek Waterfront Grille

First experience. Good things and items for improvement. Good things: I thought the fried oysters were solid. Service from our waitress was great, she was attentive and did a nice job. Items for improvement: Initial cocktails were not great. Both our cucumber mint mule and regular old fashioned were not made well. Way too much soda water in old fashioned. Grouper sat the in the window and made the rice hard by the time it got to our table. Overall a little underwhelming for the price point, but it may have been an off night. Would try again.

The food was absolutely amazing. Our table ordered lobster ravioli, flatbread and jewels of sea pasta. Everything was fanatic. The views were stunning and our waitress, Bridget was wonderful.

The whole family wanted to go out to eat at Ocean Isle, so we decided to try Jinks Creek at a friend's recommendation. Walked in to a fairly upscale place with a casual vibe that I immediately felt. Seated quickly, accommodating our number and a high chair. Then the eating began. The waitress immediately brought bread -- and it was so good we got a second basket. Everything we ate was great. A special shout-out needs to be given to the kids menu grilled cheese, which was phenomenal, and I'd know because I got to eat 1/3 of the kid's. I had their shrimp and grits, which were a beautiful southern style, well flavored, with just the right heat. Wife had an amazing salad with salmon on top, so good the kid kept stealing the salmon! I will repeat myself: everything we ate was great. We will definitely go back on our next beach trip.

Food was excellent! Beautiful setting on water, I’m giving only 3 stars because we arrived at 900pm place was packed, lots of servers. Staff made it known that they close at 10p.. hesitant to seat us. We sat at bar… about 9 servers hanging at bar… practically had to beg to order.. food arrived at 930 and once food was placed in front of us the bartender (gentleman with long dreads) turned off all bar lights and put all alcohol away as seen in my last pick… btw every table was still seated behind us in dining area!
