Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in New Bern

This place is amazing. Yes, it's a little pricey, but OMG the food is stupendous. The steaks are so tender they practically melt in your mouth. All of the food is just delicious. The service is impeccable. And the added bonus of a treat for our anniversary with a card signed by everyone. Just a sweet touch. All around the best experience for a special occasion. However, I also must say that we often go just to sit at the bar and eat appetizers and chat with the bartender. Such a friendly place.

It was awesome. Our server was friendly and engaging and the food was so delicious.

Wonderful dinner at Circa 81. Service, ambiance drinks and food were all so inviting. Creative menu, lots of choices to share.

We were in Beaufort for two nights and couldn’t resist having dinner at Aqua both evenings! The first night we enjoyed dining outside, and the second night we chose to eat inside. While both experiences were wonderful, we have to say we prefer the atmosphere inside. The service was excellent both nights, and the food was absolutely delicious. Aqua is one of our favorite restaurants in Beaufort, and we always look forward to coming back whenever we’re in town. It’s one of those special places that keeps us coming back time and time again. We love Aqua and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Beaufort!
