O'Town Restaurant

Family oriented business, ver nice staff. The seafood is to die for. Love the all you can eat buffet on saturday evening.

Tasty place to eat. The Lunch buffet was nice. The home made fried Okra was the best I have ever had. Highly recommend

Good southern cooking and hospitality. This is where the locals go for excellent seafood at a reasonable price.

The buffet was excellent and the ribs were to die four

Very good food at reasonable prices -- very substantial servings! Staff very friendly and accommodating. Judging by the number of customers utilizing it, their buffet is a big draw!

Great seafood. Good for the whole family. Great service.

Food was excellent and the service was outstanding!

Food was less than satisfactory. Service and atmosphere very ordinary. We felt like we were in a church hall. We went for the seafood buffet but it was just several deep fried things. We were hoping for some lovely fresh seafood. Never again.

Best restaurant in pamlico county !

Good food, old fashioned atmosphere

Good food, reasonable price, very clean and friendly staff

Truly family friendly home cooking delicious and large portions reasonably priced.

Good food at a reasonable price. Enjoyed three meals here while working on a boat in the area. The wait staff was friendly and never let my coffee cup get to empty.

Wonderful Staff Great Food.

Food was excellent. Service was good. Will good. Good.

Great food and service...traditional NC food

Seafood Buffett excellent...I was born in this small town excellent place to visit during early summer I call it the Martha's Vineyard of the south.

Great food taste like grandma's great service and staff woot

Went on Saturday night. I ordered the buffet which is really good seafood, but my companions ordered off the menu and had to wait over 40 minutes for their food. Only one waitress trying to handle the entire dining room (and another serving a big group in a back room.) She was so harried that she refilled my daughter-in-law's drink with tea repeatedly despite her having originally ordered Pepsi. Asked the owner about the delay, and he admitted to only having two people in the kitchen to cook for the popular buffet AND handle individual orders. "We had a big group in the back" was the excuse, one that he's used before. "We had a 30 ticket backlog most of the night." Really? If you have a summer Saturday night with a popular buffet and a large group booked, wouldn't it make sense to try and staff up for it? And this isn't the first time we've had both the situation and the excuse, so despite the lure of fried seafood, we'll go elsewhere from now on.

More like 4 1/2 stars..Love this place..super friendly staff, great food cooked to perfection and homemade pies! The only thing keeping it from a 5 star is a cold beer with my steak, but no alcohol served here.

I am never disappointed when I eat here. They are so nice, food is always great. I always leave happy!

Always very clean. Waitresses are always very nice. Food is excellent.

Great food and great customer service.

Delicious. Homemade comfort food that rivals my Grandma’s cooking.

Amazing food love this lil mom and pop place nice family restaurant

Don't be fooled by the 5 star reviews here. Because my mom and I ate here for lunch and my hot hamburger tasted like it was frozen and just thrown on a hot pan and warmed up and my moms pork chops were still raw inside and were not grilled. Maybe breakfast is better but the lunch menu food is terrible. If you want a great meal for lunch in Oriental then go to The Silos. Always good.

I went with 10 people who were family and friends on a Friday and we all had the buffet. Most of us were not happy with the taste of the food that they had except the roast beef was awesome. I have been there before and the food was really good. The waitress was nice and the busboy was awesome. I might try it again in the future.

Food was good but price was too much in comparison to other seafood restaurants.

First visit. Great food and service.

Staff is super friendly and food is great!

We love Brantley's, especially their seafood and Mis Sil's Famous Homemade Chocolate, Coconut and Lemon Cream Pies! There are also plenty of great side items to choose from. We always call ahead and pick up our order to take home. The separate "take out" area is nice as you don't actually have to go into the restaurant. Everyone at Brantley's is friendly and helpful! They are spot on as to the time estimates given for my order to be ready.

Great food and local seafood on their Saturday night Buffett. Very nice staff wish I lived closer so I could eat there regularly.

Great family atmosphere.

We used to love this place, today was a horrible experience. Soup came out cold but once warmed up was delicious. I’ve had the chicken quesadilla many times and today couldn’t even eat it..nasty. My boyfriend’s fries came out cold..poor service today too. What a shame.

Always great fresh food and great service. Best fried chicken anywhere.

Pretty good double ham n cheese sandwich. Mom liked her fried chicken. Not fond of the city water and no bottled water/beverage choices.

Good local family restaurant. Tasty food at affordable prices. Very down to earth.

Seafood buffet was great, but out of mountain dew😭😢😪 see you next time I'm in the Oriental.

Good food but pricey.

The employees are awesome and the food is great. Always cooked just right. Enjoy eating here.

Saw oriental on pbs. My wife aand i decided to go and visit. We ended up eating at brantleys. I havent been that happy after eating seafood in a very long time. The shrimp and flounder was steller. It was the best shrimp I have ever had. Good God.

This is the place to go in Oriental if you are hungry. Not fast food, but a real restaurant... although they do have takeout too. Buffet or menu.

Amazing fried banana peppers. Thank you!

Great food, excellent quality. Down home vibe.

Excellent local place to get fresh seafood. Saturday nights they have a seafood buffet and EVERYTHING on it is excellent. Shrimp, scallops, fish, deviled crab, clam strips, fried oysters, hush puppies etc. Everything is fried to perfection and did I mention fresh?

We love this place and the people that work for Brantleys... Great place... Very friendlys...

Good food and service. Friendly atmosphere.

Love it. Great food, fair service, Buffett kept full and hot.

Great family restaurant. Great fresh seafood at reasonable prices. Staff very personable.

We love Brantley's breakfast buffet on Saturday mornings in Oreintal! The food is always good and the staff is the best!
