Blue Moon Beach Grill- Nags Head
Honorable mention- The Brewing Station- Kill Devil Hills
I love both these restaurants for their fenced in backyards with things to do for the kids. Let them run free in a safe environment, while you grab yourself a well deserved cocktail.
Miller's Seafood and Steakhouse- Kill Devil Hills
Miller's Seafood & Steakhouse is a long-time OBX favorite known for its consistently fresh, locally sourced seafood and generous portions.
Stripers Bar and Grill- Manteo
Stripers offers unbeatable waterfront views over the Roanoke Sound, making it one of the best spots on the OBX to catch a sunset. Pair the golden skies with fresh seafood and drinks on the deck for a laid-back, picture-perfect evening.
Jospehine's- Kitty Hawk
You cannot go wrong with anything you pick on this menu. The inside is dark and cozy- a perfect date night. Try the pear salad and don't forget dessert.
Basnight's Lone Cedar- Nags Head/ Manteo Causeway
Saltbox Cafe is a cozy, cottage-style hidden gem on Colington Island know for its fresh, locally sourced seafood and creative coastal dishes. Sunday brunch is not to be missed.
Colington Cafe- Kill Devil Hills
Tucked down Colington Rd, you'll find this gem of a spot. A quaint and cozy old house turned restaurant. It's been serving up delicious food for 40+ years. Reservations recommended.
John's Drive -In- Kitty Hawk
An Outer Banks staple since the 70's. Do yourself a favor and order a dolphin boat and a milkshake.
Black Pelican- Kitty Hawk
A classic oceanfront spot set in a historical lifesaving station, offering beach views, a lively atmosphere, and a menu that has something for everyone
