“First time trying this establishment and we were very pleased. Enjoyed our goat cheese appetizer. Main dishes of chicken and ribeye. All prepared very well. We were too full to partake in dessert. Atmosphere was very classy. Great place for "date night" or a special occasion. We will definitely return!“

“We ate here on Friday Oct. 20. Bartender was super friendly. Highly recommend the clam chowder, best we've ever had. I had the Grouper special and it great. My wife had the Tuna, was super pleased, cooked perfect and not many places get it right. They did. Chef was great to talk to. She explained a lot as we sat at the bar waiting for our food. Backyard bar was our kind of place. The band had to cancel because of rain but It would have been a great place to see one. Will go back next time we are in Duck. Thanks for a great experience.“

“Capt'n Franks - always a favorite when visiting the OBX! The service is great and the hot dogs are even better!“

“Off the Wall was our first stop when we arrived in town and we made it our last stop on our way out! I wish I would’ve gotten the name of the guy who works in the front because he was great. He was so nice and helpful that I thought he was the owner. All of the food we tried was really good, I highly recommend the burger and fries. Also, being able to try any of the beers was a lot of fun. We are looking forward to visiting again soon!!“

“Great staff, good food, seating options.“

“We are out of town visitors who enjoyed our first dinner at Urban Kitchen so much, we went back the following night. The menu is not super big, so we got to try most of the small plates, and at least 2 of the entrees. A couple of our favorites were the avocado crab toast and catfish (small plates). The catfish is actually entree sized, in my opinion, and the avocado crab toast was really tasty and unique. And don’t give dessert a miss - we tried 2 and they were both super good. My husband and I liked the passion fruit pie and our daughter liked the chocolate panna cotta (which is like S’mores) Good service and great food - this place is worth a stop if you’re in town.“

“Good food would recommend and I am officially a Viking 🤭“

“What a great experience!! We were a party of 9 including 2 kids and each of us had different meals and they all were great!!! All the food came out hot and all our orders were correct! Marissa, our waitress, was awesome!! She didn’t skip a beat with her service!! Every year when we come we stop and eat at a different restaurant before our check in and we all decided this is our new stop every year!“

“Great atmosphere and the food was amazing!“

“This is a don’t judge a book by its cover kind of place. The service was amazing…very friendly and Welcoming atmosphere. The food was amazing, hot, and fresh. Now the wait for the food was a little long but when you taste the food you will know why. I did not get the cooks name, but he made this food with so much love and care. The customer service from the person who greeted us to our waitress that served us was great…..This is a place to stop if you ever traveling in the Carolina’s. Thanks guys for the amazing experience😊“

“Ordered breakfast sandwiches, smoothie and donuts from Kill Devil Hills location today. Asked for ketchup for the sandwiches and they said they had none and do not plan on providing ketchup in the future. I am a local. May not come back if they do not provide ketchup. Large double storefront just opened here in KDH and plenty of room for inside tables but no tables. Hopefully these issues will be corrected so I can take my granddaughter to this store again.“

“Great menu. Would like to go back several times to try most of their offerings. We had very nice salads, and the whipped goat cheese with fig spread. Unbelievably delicious.“

“Hurricane Mo's - my new favorite tiki bar! The outdoor tiki bar located upstairs is absolutely fabulous! Live music, great drinks, amazing food, and stellar views - what more could you ask for? The live guitarist on Sunday was superb! He really took us back to the tropics! Bobbi at the bar was fantastic, friendly, and very accommodating! Started with a key lime margarita - WOW, so amazing - even my beer drinkin mate loved it! Best of all, the food was amazing! The food used to be good, but now it's great! Miss Anne's Chicken Sandwich - WOW -a huge meaty piece of chicken and french fries. If the waiter asks if you want the special cheese topper - the answer should always be YES! It was amazing! We also got the fresh salsa, queso, and chips! WOW! Homemade chips and salsa, what could be better! To end this culinary delight, we chose to get a Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie! My, oh my! Just fantastic! I beg you not to come here - only because then we can enjoy it more! ;)“

“The tuna bites and blackened tuna sandwich were excellent, delicious and our Server, Kim, was friendly and efficient 😎“

“they are amazing big and delicious!“

“Easter breakfast was our first time at Henry's. It was by far one of the best breakfast experiences we've had. From the moment we walked in the door we were made to feel like family. Christina couldn't have been more accommodating...making sure everything was to our liking, without being overbearing. And it was the little things that mattered. May sound silly to most, but having syrup on the table for your flapjacks...when ordering hot tea, they bring you a cup of hot water, a tea bag, PLUS a silver container of hot water to place your "used" tea bag in, should you desire another cup of tea. Also, creamer was right on the table. The menu even made sense...build your own omelet.....you pay for what you want! It seemed like all the Employees chipped in. I never saw anyone just standing around. We will certainly be back, and refer folks we know to Henry's. Thank you.“

“Good food and service but kitchen closed at 4 pm on Fri!“

“This wasn't our first time, nor will it be the last. We love this restaurant. The food is great, the servers are fast, the atmosphere is amazing. The clam chowder is the absolute best.

Parking: If the front is full, use the side next to the outside area.“

“Dog friendly deck seating makes Shipwrecks a great option. Oh, the food is delicious too! The staff is great and friendly.“
