One of the top places in Southport along the water! Informal and laid back, it's food, drink and service are great. The inside is simple, a walkup counter to order and fridges with a variety of beverages and beers. Eating is entirely outside under a open structure (with ceiling fans and an ocean breeze to keep away the bugs). Expect it to be crowded but simply let the hostess know your party is there and while you wait grab a drink (don't worry about paying yet) and take it outside and sit or stand on the deck by the water and wait for your name to be called. Just remember what you drank so later you can let your server know once you have a table, eat and are ready for the bill (they use the honesty principle). One of my favorite spots and the first place we hit whenever we go to Southport!

The food was great, the server was great, the greeter was great, practically everything was great. The only thing I can complain about is the untraditional ordering process.

You give them a personal item, they place it on a table. Meanwhile you're waiting in line to grab your own drink (and any refills) after that you have to go find your table with the personal item.

Other than the weird quirk, this place has incredible food and is well worth a visit! Prepare to wait, they're usually busy!

The food is so great here! If you want to come here and not wait in line, Monday early afternoon is a great time. We didn't wait hardly any time by the time we ordered and got our food; I had barely started on my beer by the time the food came out. The shrimp are fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere is so relaxed. There is no AC, so if you want inside seating, don't come here. All seating is outside with only the fans and breeze to keep you cool (and I don't mind this at all). I'll keep coming here every year at beach time!

Amazing food every time. The shrimp are great and the location can't be beat. It is right on the dock and the waiting area makes even a long wait no problem. My husband and I come here everytime we are at the beach, multiple times in the week.

Foods inferior, people seem to be enamored with the get it yourself drink service like it's something amazing, it isn't lol Now they've managed to cordon off all the parking in the yacht basin off in a pathetic attempt to try and obligate people to patronize there or walk 3 blocks. Such is life I'll walk, The Frying Pan next door is far superior in quality and doesn't need the gimmicks.

Million dollar views. All the staff were super friendly, super helpful, super fast. Broken arm bartender was clever and easy going. Like the honor system. Unique all the way around dealing with virus.
Nothing unique about the food really. Not bad, but certainly not original.
Nothing about out meal stands out as above normal or below normal.

This restaurant is busy due to a wonderful view and reasonably priced food. They needed more servers because there was a lot of plates waiting for pickup. Seeing this I ordered food that did not need to be hot. Wait staff was okay, they call out your name and they find you. We were sitting near the door so it was difficult to hear because they were constantly yelling names. Food was ok.

To be honest - the first night we went to dinner - I picked another spot even though the Provision Company was the local favorite! The next night - we decided to go here - because our other place was closed. Are we ever glad we did - this place is first on my list when we return. The food was great - the staff friendly - the service simple. Order first, sit down and they bring your food. Oh grab the drinks you want - and when all is done - get up and go pay. The food, drinks and dessert are all delicious!

Have eaten at Provisions several times. On the water and pleasant, covered outside seating. Very busy, especially in season. Many excellent menu selections. Order going in and meal is delivered. Pleasantly delivered. Some great seafood.

Fun place, great setting. I think they can have really good food, but need to pay more attention to their finished product. Need to stop worrying about your numbers and start watching how overdone your seafood actually is. Good luck, will try again!!!

I had the yellowfin tuna salad, and it was great. The salad dressing they use is very good. However, my partner had the tuna steak, and it was extreamly overcooked considering the style of the tuna steak. Over all, the food was good, just maybe shouldnt cook the tuna steak so much. Also i would say that there could be a better effort for a more sustainable way of serving the guests. By this, I mean that everything they served us with was disposable. Plates napkins, silverware, all of it was disposable and will be brought to the landfill. Not environmentally sustainable.

It had good food, good service, but no ranch. Like bruh. How hard is it to get some ranch? Like it s one popular condiment why can t they provide some literally everyone likes ranch i m sure they would have so many more happy customers if they just had some gosh dang ranch . Also the shrimp was overcooked. I d still eat again though they had some swag crab cakes.

It was food...not the best not the worst. 3 stars for quick service and great outdoor seating. I had the tuna which was extremely bland..the tartar sauce was the only saving grace. My hubby had the crab cakes and conch fritters which were both meh....I was under impressed. Would I eat here again, possibly if it were the only thing open.

Hit the Provision Company on a Sunday evening, Labor Day weekend (a few days before Dorian). There was a 30 minute wait. No problem. Live tunes on the patio, sun setting, boats cruising up the ICW. Wife says PC has the best shrimp burger ever. I'm partial to their Grouper sandwich. And you can't beat the wine prices. $5 a glass. There is a reason why this place is popular and starred.

Exceptional staff & service! What could be better than a ice cold Corona, a steaming plate of Provisions shrimp and a basket of hot wings with a seat right next to the water? The only thing missing, imho, was Mel Gibson. Great job, ProCo.
