Calabash Seafood Hut

"Calabash styles itself the 'seafood capital of the world,' and is home to a vast array of seafood restaurants. The well-loved Calabash Seafood Hut is known for the thin, crunchy coating on its fried seafood. Shrimp, scallops, and flounder are particularly appreciated."

Lewis Seafood Shack

"Fried shrimp of fish tacos and sandwiches are the specialty at this actual shack on Topsail Island, but there are also daily specials — for instance seafood stew or black sea bass with sautéed peppers."
