Gluten-Free Restaurants near Nags Head, NC

“South Beach Grill is a staple during our annual OBX vacation. We order from there 2-3 times during the week. They are fast, friendly, and ordering is easy online. Dinner for our group of 9 was ready for pick-up in less than 20 minutes. Everyone has tried multiple things from the menu and everyone was extremely pleased with everything they’ve tried. My favorites are the southwest wrap, burgers, and Buffalo chicken Philly. Their fries are delicious… especially with their fry sauce or BBQ ranch. South Beach Grill is a must have on your OBX vacation!“

“Cousins loved everything ordered. Amazing Coffee and Staff. Have a blessed Easter!“

“BEST GF/DF pizza I have ever had, amazing and now I want to move here just for the pizza!“

“Just had one of the best meals I’ve ever had. There were 6 adults and 2 children in our party. The appetizers were fantastic and the entrees were delicious and beautifully plated. Live music was an added bonus! Very happy to have found The Saltbox Cafe!“

“Had lunch the other day! Nice vibe and super friendly staff! Ordered the Bang Bang shrimp and it was perfect. Crispy and just the right amount of heat. Shared the crispy chicken salad because it was such a large portion, and it was plenty for 2 at lunch. Very delicious“

“Johanna’s Catering is absolutely incredible. Easy 5 stars all around. We booked them for both our rehearsal dinner and our brunch the morning after our wedding, and they exceeded expectations at both events. The staff is amazing, the customer service is top-notch, and the food… absolutely outstanding. Every detail was handled with such care, and their team went above and beyond. Everyone was SO nice!! Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was! If you’re looking for a catering team that is talented, professional, and a joy to work with, Johanna’s Catering is the one.“

“Straight from the pizza palaces of yesteryear is Garden Deli & Pizzaria. Delicious pizza, great wings, and perfect mozzarella sticks are a plenty here. There is also a sweet black cat outside; a sign of the kind and skilled people who operate the establishment.“

“🚨 🚨 ‼️ ‼️ Long Post Alert so just a heads up if you want a read ahead of your stay or if you’re a local and just want to know what the inlanders feel about this local gem on the shores of the Outer Banks. My wife and I spent our honeymoon last week in KH and all we can say about this place is, our bank probably thinks we moved in there. But for Good reason. From the time you walk in the door and are greeted by the hosts, to taking a peak in the gift shop. There is everything for everyone in this convenient beachside bar and restaurant. We made our way to the back side of the bar and were immediately greeted by Ryan who explained what the daily specials were and offered us a cocktail, all the while with a smile on his face. We chose the 1/2 lb shrimp, and as much shrimp as we ate at some other locations (over 20) this right here…hands down best on the coast. The ambiance is inviting and rewarding with just the step up from your seat and you have a beautiful view of the famous dunes and the Atlantic. The conscience of this place is unmatched. Once your belly’s are good and full, you’re just a few steps away from your toes in the sand and what better way to walk of some great food than with your toes in the water. We also dabbled in other specials of the day, unique beachside cocktails and I promise you, some of the BEST conversations with locals and bartenders alike. Not to mention the upstairs open air bar and seating where we met Jacob. One of the other bartenders who told us his in time the day prior. As we were planning our evening the next morning we said “wait Jacob’s upstairs tomorrow. it’s a pretty evening tonight, let’s go to the top Bar.” Needless to say, away we went. Consistency. Consistency. Consistency. Everywhere you look. Every food item you see. Every conversation you have. Everything about it is what makes this place so very special and truly only 1/1 in my opinion! To the Management, Staff and Owners of this wonderful restaurant…please keep up what you’re doing. It works and it’s made the most positive of impressions on me and my Wife. Thank you all for having us and oh by the way, we will see you guys for our 1 year Anniversary in 2026!!! Cheers to each and every one of you! 🍻 🍸 🥃“

“Ortega'z - what a GREAT gem! Heard about this restaurant on Guys Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives; and boy, it not disappoint! The pulled pork nachos appetizer was absolutely HUGE and AMAZING! YES, all caps is necessary. We also ordered two entrees - fish tacos and also Buffalo chicken tacos. Both came with 3 tacos, and rice and beans. Everything was so delicious and the portion sizes were great! Great prices for the amount of food you receive. Oh, and the service was great also! Will be returning very soon!“
