Splash By The Sea - North Topsail Beach

The food here is quite good, with great options for vegetarians. They provide both indoor and outdoor seating, with the outdoor area situated near the pool. My favorite dish was the cookie dessert—it was AMAZING! The service was excellent, and the restaurant was clean and well-organized. Parking is available across the street, and they can easily accommodate large groups while being kid-friendly too.

The food was quite good; we ordered salmon, and the kids had pizza topped with mac and cheese. However, I would have liked to see a broader selection of seafood. It was a bit on the expensive side for lunch. That said, the dining area was lovely, and the service was excellent.

I had a disappointing experience during my visit. After waiting for 15 minutes without being attended to, I decided to leave. The waitress seemed overwhelmed and it was quite frustrating. I also reached out to Splash via email but didn’t receive a response. My visit was on August 8th.

The food was enjoyable, and the service was excellent. However, I would advise against ordering the seafood pot. Priced at $100, it didn't live up to expectations. The menu listed a whole lobster or crab legs, shrimp, corn, potatoes, garlic knots, and kielbasa. Unfortunately, we didn't receive the potatoes or kielbasa, and while it was mentioned that it was crab legs and not lobster, we should have clarified. They did take $6 off the bill for the missing items.

The food was outstanding, and the service was exceptional. I even got to meet my birthday twin, Savannah, who truly made our lunch memorable!
