we had just arrived at motel & were told it was great place. Walked in the door & nearly gagged , overwhelmed by the stench of rancid grease. My companion actually had to run back out because became instantly nauseated. went elsewhere for a great...meal. could not even imagine what the food would taste like.More
We had a burger for supper and it was excellent. $2 PBOs. It was raining and cold so only the inside seating was available so we sat at the bar. The place was busy and they had an open mike so there was entertainment. We...chatted with locals who gave suggestions on things to do and places to eat in the area. We would have returned if we had more time. A definite do not miss placeMore
This was our 1st trip to the OBX and check in at our rental house wasn’t until 5pm, but we were told to get over the bridge before 7am. So our very first stop was breakfast at Art’s Place just over the bridge. What a...warm wonderful eclectic spot with fabulous food! I’m in my sixties now and my wife and I have so many places we ate planning on visiting; and this little cafe will be one of the standouts in our memories.More
Really cool place, and the burgers are as advertised, legit. Gota nice seat right out on the front deck and enjoyed a few cold local craft beers too. Great overall vibe, quality and service.
We have enjoyed takeout from Art’s several times in the past, but stopped recently for a sit down bite to eat. Art’s Place has won the award for the Best Burger on the Beach, and it is well deserved. Our favorites are the Carolina Burger...(with bacon add on), and the Swiss Mushroom Burger. We frequently do the change to sweet potato fries or onion rings. The food is great. For our recent sit down visit, the staff was wonderful and got us a seat reasonably quickly, given the fact they are usually so busy. Art’s is one of our favorite places here on the OBX.More
What a fun stop on our adventures in the OBX. Great spot on the beach with great views from the upper roof. Bartenders were super and so attentive. Made our visit there really enjoyable. Great drinks and awesome burgers. Stop there and you won’t regret...it.More
They are not kidding, "best burgers on the island". Our friends had burgers a day said they were outstanding and lived up to the hype. We had crabcakes and WOW were they good! They were not full of fillers. Everything was so delicious! Outstanding service,...great place to eat! Don't miss it!More
If you are a fan of local breakfast places, then this is right up your alley. The food is good, but it is a bar at night. So that's the vibe. But the service was good and the food was just what you'd expect from...a local breakfast joint. Highly recommend for small groups or family.More
My wife ordered French toast. One side was burnt and the other was barely cooked. I did not know about this until after we left. Some people like Art’s burgers. They do taste good as I have had them in past years, but definitely greasy....My experience was different, I am a father, and it is Father’s Day. My coffee, which probably was on the burner a little too long was not very good. It was the cup which said “Best Mom Ever”, so I waited until we all got our food and asked for a different cup as I am a dad and it is Father’s Day. The waiter (I guess he) took a real attitude and debated me, saying se come on, and really!. He did get get me another cup, this coffee was an improvement as it probably did not sit on the burner as long. It would not have been notable except for his derogatory and in a bitter voice comment, which he said words to the effect, but you are a good mom. And not said politely. We will never go to Art’s again. He got a 20% tip, which I do out of respect for people who work. I will never eat at burnt toast, rude waiter, greasy burger restaurant again.More
Ate here for the first time about 8:30 pm on a Friday night. Grabbed a table inside and was immediately greeted. Good selection of adult beverages and soft drinks. The burger with pimento, jalapeño and bacon was delicious. The baby burger (1/4 lb) build your...own way was very filling. Hard pressed burgers grilled to perfection with all your favorite toppings. All coke with a side of house made fries that reminded me of the yummy fries from our county fair. Our bill came to $35 for two. Outstanding meal and great service. We will be back.More
Place is a local hangout, would be considered a dive on DDD. Place is smaller and had a 30 minute wait. We had different burgers which were very good, reasonably priced, good drinks, friendly service. Live music in such a small place made it a...little loud, but they would normally play outside.More
Hole in the wall restaurant with a great burger and fresh cut fries. Burger with the works was a mess to eat but absolutely delicious. Love French fries that are “home made”. I will definitely go back.
Excellent breakfast we eat there all the time! Great burgers too! The view is great & my son loves the French toast!
If you’re anything but porcelain white, you may get disrespectful stares from other guests, told there is a 20 min wait, as there are empty tables visibly present , & a waitress cleaning and setting one right in front of you, and also told “...it’s actually warmer outside if you’d prefer to wait out there.” By the waitress there, who gives off the energy of the singer p!nk’s less successful sister, purp¡e. Me & My Beautiful multi race family, experienced all this within 90 seconds of entering this friendly on the outside looking restaurant. And, there was a five year old child with us as well. We quietly removed our selves from the establishment, followed by a couple from the bar blantas on a family vacation, the last thing you expect to experience is racist wait staff & patrons at what was deemed a local gem. This incident occurred on April 1st, 2023 around 8:15pm.More
Really good burger at a great price. But as good as the burgers are, the homemade fries are unbelievably good. No wonder they are so highly rated on all platforms
