We actually came to Pangea 5 years ago and the whole experience was forgettable. However, we decided to try it again this year and were blown away by the excellent service from Serhii and the quality of the food! I started with a prickly sunrise drink and it was very tasty, then we decided to get the coconut shrimp appetizer. My boyfriend doesn't usually eat shrimp but he really enjoyed it. We both agreed that the Pina colada sauce would have been easier to eat if it was blended up or if the coconut flakes were smaller, but it tasted excellent. I ordered the special of the evening. It was a grilled Mahi fillet with grilled zucchini, potato salad, and a basil mint pesto and it was outstanding!! The zucchini were cooked perfectly and the fish was flaky and delicious. My boyfriend got the curry bowl with chicken and said it was really good. It came out really hot and it was a large portion size with fresh, crispy vegetables and rice. The restaurant was clean and Serhii was wonderful. We will be coming back and we highly recommend Pangea Tavern!!

My husband and I had a great dinner here recently. The veggie taco was really fresh and the clam strips large, not overly breaded and lightly done. Our waitress Debbie was friendly and attentive and the prices reasonable. MUCH better than the former restaurant in this location.

Great King crab legs - you won’t leave hungry! We ate here several times during the week we stayed at OBX. Had to wait for a table each time (we didn’t make reservations) but totally worth the wait! Good well drinks. If you like pina coladas get them here! Whipped cream and a cherry on top!

Small but intimate atmosphere. A dive worth stopping at with the best seafood. Some prices were a bit high, but the fish is reasonably priced. I LOVED the non-PC signs and decor. NYC whimps need not attend. Southern NC charm in their service and manners.

I was quite happy about the generous amount of “good stuff” on my salad. It wasn’t all lettuce like some places give. I did not like the wait time and having to get the attention of a waitress to see what was going on. We understood there was a large party ahead of us, but should’ve been attended to along with them. Made us feel invisible and not as important as the “bigger check.”

A bit slow to start off. Not a very big place to be so slow to seat guests. Still took a few minutes to get a waitress. She finally did take our order. Waiting for our food as I make this review. Cute little gift shop area.I'm sorry our service was a little slower than you expected when you came in. I'm not sure what was going on that day, but slow service is not the norm here. I hope you'll give us a second chance to show you what exceptional service looks like. Warmly, Keith Gray, Owner

Since I often travel alone I like to go to diner early before places get to busy. I arrived when Rusty’s opened at 5pm. I was seated immediately and had great customer service. My meal was excellent- blackened red drum with a fabulous mango salsa. I also added a side of cheese grits. Everything was excellent. I got dessert to take home with me. It was a lemon berry cake that was delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant! They were friendly to family’s with small children and people dining alone.
