“After exploring the town of duck via the boardwalk it was refreshing to be greeted with such a courteous staff that allowed me to sit at the bar for some time waiting on the dinner menu to become available. It was a unrushed, inviting experience that was made even better by one of the best steaks with fresh vegetables that I have had the privilege to consume. Great upscale environment, courteous staff and topped off with amazing food made for a time that I will be back soon to duplicate.“

“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!!“

“5/5 — Honestly one of the best dinners I’ve had in a long time

I wasn’t expecting anything crazy when we walked in, but this meal ended up being a top 10 dinner for us. Everything we ordered was spot-on.

The lamb meatballs were incredible — tender, full of flavor, and the romesco/pickled cauliflower combo was perfect. The delicata squash surprised me the most; it was one of those dishes you keep thinking about after you’re done. And the strip steak was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing.

We wrapped it up with an ice cream sandwich, and it was the perfect ending to the meal.

Service was friendly, food came out at a great pace, and the whole night was just way way better than I expected. Super impressed and definitely coming back. Only wish we had visited sooner!“

“Great burgers! Wait staff was fantastic. They were also very accommodating for a shellfish allergy and used a pan on the grill and changed gloves, as to not cross contaminate.(kitchen is open, so I watched the process) Also the waiter immediately told me I wouldn’t be able to eat the fries due to cross contamination and subbed a salad for the same price. We will return on our next visit.“

“we went in the winter, so our experience may be different from the summer peak crowd, but service was friendly, food fell short (my husband liked his meal, but none of us liked the nachos— we ended up throwing away more than half of them which we NEVER do, and the shrimp tacos were fine but maybe the least tasty I’ve ever had (edible but basic, it was just shrimp with lettuce, cheese, and salsa) , and the lettuce in the Caesar salad was warm and limp, not cold and crisp, which was a bummer for $8 or whatever it cost for a little salad).

That said— restaurants are extremely limited in the off season so it was busy and they did a good job keeping up with the crowds and the food was edible but disappointing for everyone except my husband. It was $100 for 1 salad, 1 appetizer, 2 meals, and a soda and we’ve had much better food for a lot less— this was the only meal we ate out and we left feeling disappointed.“

“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.“
