"Overall, this restaurant was okay. We like trying new places and wanted to give this themed restaurant a shot. We walked in to the bookstore and knew to wait for the hostess. She stayed in theme and was very friendly and fun and loved that we had and used the password and said we were the first people to use it in days. Speakeasy... password... DUH. We came early to sit at the bar, which the restaurant obliged, and had a few cocktails. The cocktails were excellent, the bruschetta was mediocre and not worth $8-9. The weirdest part at the bar was that we sensed tension between the bartenders and servers. I’m not sure what that was about but my husband and I looked at each other and noticed immediately. After our cocktails, we sat at our table. Our server was not warm, nor overly friendly. Granted, we had sat at the bar for a little while but as soon as we sat at our dinner table, she asked us what we wanted to order. We did not partake in salads or more appetizers and immediately ordered entrees, both of which were pretty good, although the pricing seemed off on the one my husband had due to portion size. The ambiance is fine, but if they’re going to call themselves a Speakeasy, it needs to be bigger and just... more. More decor, more theme, something. I don’t really regret trying G&S, but I probably won’t go back to the OBX location. Stick to the classic seafood spots you know and love when in Nags Head, KDH, and Kitty Hawk!"
