Diners can admire the adjacent Morehead City waterfront while dining on a feast of fresh local seafood with a visit to Red Fish Grill. Located in the heart of the downtown area, this small but popular eatery has a selectively varied menu that offers a blend of beach favorites, (like burgers and clam chowder), as well as unique specialties. Starters, salads, sandwiches and entrees are all represented, and patrons will be surprised by some of the more unusual items that are scattered throughout the menu. Diners can enjoy hearty plates of house made lasagna, Cajun shrimp and grits, and even gyros, or stick to local favorites like a range of fried NC seafood platters, grilled Mahi, stuffed flounder, and Carolina crab cakes.
Though a smaller establishment, Red Fish Grill has an unbeatable casual and friendly atmosphere that’s filled with charm and is perched on a pretty section of the busy waterfront. Happy hour guests can also easily swing by for a cold drink and a nice view with a window front or outdoor table, (which is seasonally available depending on the weather.)
Perfect for seafood lovers and water lovers alike, the relatively new Red Fish Grill is already making a splash on the Morehead City dining scene.
