Saltbox Seafood Joint offers a cozy vibe with a casual atmosphere - perfect for a laid-back meal. The honey hush puppies are an absolute must-try! šÆ
I sampled the shrimp plate, which was decent, but a bit less refined than my usual NC expectations. The slaw felt off, and the sweet tea was a disappointment - way too much lemon for my taste.
Service was friendly, and while my experience had highs and lows, the ambiance keeps me wanting to return. Perhaps Iāll give the crab cake roll another shot next time! š
