Whoever is leaving this place less than 4 stars, please stop. If you leave less than four stars, you're just being an a-hole. That was some damn good food. Excellent service as well. Thank you for a great experience.
Another great meal al fresco at Jinks. Got there for sunset and the weather was nice but crazy windy! Our server was good, and kept up with our drinks. We ordered the mahi tacos and the egg roll for apps. Both quite good and plenty for 4 people to share. For dinner we had the Caesar salad with shrimp. The salad was HUGE! Definitely enough to share, and I did! We also ordered the fish of the day which I believe was grouper and the shrimp capellini. All was very much enjoyed and of course the sunset views were beautiful.
We enjoyed our visit here very much. Our server was very busy but efficient and attentive. Our food was delicious. My dad ordered the salmon special, and we had several items on the menu. We will return!
The Tuna was AMAZING! There were 12 of us & EVERYONE LOVED their meal. We'll DEFINITELY go back this week! It's unanimous! They are great to accommodate special dietary alternates to dishes. And the space is large & open with lots of light before sunset (we ate early so didn't see after dark.) SO SO YUMMY!
For me and my family, our 2 week beach vacation would not be the same without multiple visits to Jinx. Whether we are staying at Ocean Isle beach or Holden, we still make sure to have dinner there each week. I personally always get the steak and crab cake, which is delicious, while my family dines on all of the other dinner options, which they all brag about how delicious their plates are, and then never share. From the Oysters as an appetizer, to the main course and dessert, hands down the service is impeccable and the ambiance is exceptional. I love seating outside and looking at the waterway. When you see the photos attached, I can guarantee your mouth is going to water! I give it 5 stars, and I would give it 5 more if they allowed!
