The food was standard. It is put out there as a fresh seafood restaurant, but the shrimp tasted frozen. A little more pricey than was warranted for the portion size. It may have been the time of year that we visited, but I was not impressed. I didn't feel like it lived up to all the hype.

Good Calabash style Seafood. <br> If you enjoy fried seafood, it is a great option in Morehead City. <br> Located on the Morehead Waterfront, an evening at the Sanitary is best when coupled with a nice stroll along the boardwalk. <br> It's a paper napkin and fork only kind of place, but the food is Calabash at it's best.

As with all the seafood places here if you go for lunch the prices are lower. But well worth the $ anytime. Great food and service, not to mention the view. The seafood always tastes fresh and the shrimp is excellent (my favorite). Ample portions and always plenty of hushpuppies!

As a child, we visited Morehead each summer and my father always brought us here at least once. I always cried because I hated it so much. Now, however, I am the Dad......and I DO enjoy Tony's as much as my father did. The cold boiled shrimp is about as good as you will ever find them. The key lime pie is also a must. On the way OUT of the restaurant, PLEASE stop and buy a box of salt water taffy. Though I am not a taffy fan, I still buy it and remember my childhood. This restaurant is as historical a landmark as you will find. If you have never been there, GO. WAIT in line....there WILL be one in the summer. Stand there in line complaining and WAIT. You'll be glad you did.

Since 1938 Sanitary Restaurant and Fish Market has been the Restaurant on the Morehead City Waterfront. Boat accessable and ample free parking is available. A full line of seafood entrees, boiled, broiled, fried, and steamed is offered. Cold plates and combination platters are on the menu also. The absolute best hush puppies and sweetened ice tea served. Excellant desserts include cobblers, key lime pie, and lemon merengue pie. Sanitary Restaurant is a land mark seeing decades of returning World War Two Veterans and their families, vacationers, anglers, and regional celebrities, as well as, native Carolinians. Mr. John Tunnel has greeted each guest and remembers the guest's name, home and state, and career field.

Probably the most famous restaurant in the area. I've eaten there many times and it's always been fresh and tasty. I especially like the fried shrimp and hush puppies.

I stop here every time i am in morehead city. the food is always good and plenty of it and the wait staff is great, plus i see a new photo of a president or celebrity on the wall (there must be thousands of photos) and the registry throughout the years are neat to look at. Its got character plus its boat accessible just dock and eat.
