T.L.'s Family Restaurant

"Diner en dur Typiquement le coin sorti des annees 80 des series US. Petits plats sans chichi et petits prix Tarte ananas maison ouhaa.. Si vous passez devant arret recommande fortement"

"Nous avons pris le poulet frit, absolument delicieux! Le poulet est prepare "from scratch", rien a voir avec une chaine de restauration rapide. Ne vous laissez pas intimider par l'apparence exterieur du restaurant, l'ambiance est conviviale, le personnel est hyper chaleureux, bref une tres belle (et bonne) experience!"

"A frequent visiter"

"We were looking for a family restaurant near the aquarium. We found this place. Good food that takes a little bit to come out because it's made to order. The food was good and service was spot on. They have a good menu selection here for everyone. I would give them 8 out of 10 stars."

"Down home southern food. We eat here every time we ate in OBX. Delicious food, friendly service!"

"TL's has awesome breakfast food! I got a T shirt the first time I went. It ain't fancy but it's good! I had some perfectly delicious fried scallops and a side of grits for dinner, yum! The cutest and best waitress dear too, her little carolina accent was sweet. I've only been twice, but it's a convenient location at the start of Manteo, which is a lovely little town away from the main beach islands. I'd recommend it for its no frills and friendly atmosphere with some good food, it ain't fancy but it's just right if you want sumpin good to eat and relax, old folks style. It reminded me of some small town local eats from my side of town up in Virgina. Oh yeah and the banana pudding was worth the stop Going back next time I'm "down that way." Stop in TL's for something good to eat and take a break "

"What an absolutely charming and FRIENDLY place! Everyone greeted us and were genuinely happy we were there. The food was absolutely DELICIOUS! We have a handicapped daughter with special dietary needs, and Jesus, our server, checked her allergies with the chef. She had the salmon patty special, which was perfectly prepared to the consistency she needed. It looked so good, so we all tried it...it was superb!! I had the steak quesadilla, and the meat was so tender, it practically melted in my mouth. My husband had the shrimp and it, too, was absolutely delicious! Even the homemade coleslaw that came with it tasted wonderful! We saved room for desserts and were blown away by the selection and taste. It was hard to decide there were so many mouth-watering choices...I had creamsicle cake, it was absolutely heavenly. The taste and texture was perfect! My husband had the 12-layer cake...yes, that many layers. Such a pleasure to eat that moist, flavorful treat. Again our daughters needs were perfectly met with a smooth banana pudding with a surprise at the bottom! Apparently the desserts come from the local bakers! To round out this experience we had the most delightful server, Jesus. His sense of humor, attention to detail, and sincere desire to please, put him at the top of our list of "best service of all time." Our evening ended with a check-in by the owner (I think that's who it was) making sure we were happy. It was a perfect way to start our Outer Banks vacation. We will definitely be back!"
