    Great food, scenery, and service. First time and definitely not the last. Our drinks were never empty, and the dam shrimp is worth trying. I had the pimento cheese burger, which had bacon and jalapeños. Very good.

    Fun fishing cabin atmosphere, service was friendly and food was tasty, particularly enjoyed the mountain berry cobbler. Looks like the outdoor seating would be nice when it is not snowing like today.

    I have lived on the Outer Banks for 10 years, and I know what good seafood tastes like. This restaurant has world-class seafood! I was very surprised by how good EVERYTHING was. I highly recommend the food here.

    Waitress was very helpful with my allergies before I ordered. Hushpuppies and fish were fresh and delicious! Shrimp was delicious also! Sweet potato fries were not as good ,Kinda rubbery. Handcut fries were not fresh. Soggy and lukewarm. Green beans were out of a can.

    Absolutely outstanding experience at Almost at the Lake! I ordered the chicken bacon club, and I can honestly say it's the best sandwich I've ever eaten-perfectly cooked chicken, crispy bacon, and fresh ingredients that just hit every note. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the service is top-notch, and everyone there makes you feel genuinely welcome. You can tell it's run by great people who care about what they're doing. This is the kind of place you can't wait to come back to-and I definitely will. Highly recommend!
