The greeter was unfriendly. Food and service slow and mediocre. The waiter took our credit card and took forever to return it. A few days later, we found our card was used for unauthorized purchases. This was the only place we used this particular card. If you choose to eat here, only pay in cash. We won’t be back.
We returned to Nags Head for vacation after a 20 year hiatus. During the the 10 years we previously vacationed in the Outer Banks, the Rundown Cafe was always a favorite place to go. I loved their Hummus and many other menu items. We decided to try it out again, but on this visit we were very disappointed. The menu has changed, with many items not offered anymore, including Hummas. I ordered an appetizer (crab dip) for our table and specifically told the server we wanted...read full review

Rundown is a beachside restaurant known for its fresh fish options and friendly service. The staff, including a helpful waitress and a welcoming front desk, are praised for their friendliness and quick responses. Guests enjoy the fish and chips, which are described as excellent, along with hush puppies and a fish burrito that was good, though a bit pricey. The restaurant offers creative, fresh fish dishes, and in the past, was famous for its fried clam strips, though these have been replaced with a cheaper alternative. The top deck provides a nice setting when the weather is warm. Service can sometimes be slow, especially when the restaurant is busy, and the ambiance is affected by the temperature inside; one reviewer noted it was freezing, despite the outdoor warmth. Food quality varies slightly—some find the crab dip average, and the key lime pie unremarkable. Overall, Rundown is appreciated for its good location near the beach, friendly staff, and solid seafood options, making it a popular spot to return to.
