Mimosa flights were super fun, enough for maybe four people. Benedicts were absolutely delicious and you can’t go wrong with the house potatoes or grits. Service was attentive, food came quickly, and we had a ton of fun using the crayons to draw on the table.
The four stars solely goes for the biscuits. I’m not sure if they messed the recipe up the day we were there but they were practically inedible. Super salty, crumbly, essentially like baking soda. And also because we had to remind the waitress of two drinks we ordered that they didn’t bring. Otherwise great service and good food!
We stopped here with our family on our last night in OBX and I'm glad we did.
The restaurant is tucked back in the shopping plaza out of the way of the main foot traffic.
The bar selection is good for cocktails. I wish there was a deeper beer selection, but the Old Fashioned I had was delicious.
The She-Crab soup was delicious. The ribeye steak was cooked perfectly. The sides were all great.
The tuna was seared nicely and very tasty.
The service was outstanding. The meal was paced just right.
We ate dessert too fast to take a picture, but trust that the Apple Crisp and Key Lime Pie are worth trying.
Highly recommended. We'll be back the next time we're in the area.

The food was fantastic!
Best Steak I've ever had!
The Tomato Pie was unbelievable.
And the Chocolate Bead Pudding....OMG!!!
Our server was Jose, pleasant and paid attention to detail.
Run don't walk to this restaurant. We will be back next year for sure!!!!
Listen, I'm a fan of Dianna's, but 3 weeks ago on Sunday morning our experience was very average. Prices were high for the food presented. Flavors didn't have punch. The servers were nice and professional. The restaurant was clean.
It's almost as if the excitement of the store left with the tourists.
Maybe they had an off day, we all have. I'll be back soon and give it a go again. Sorry for wrong date.
Delicious!! We made reservations on a Saturday afternoon for the same night using the easy google online system. We were seated right away and the service was awesome! Our server was super friendly and everything came out quickly. The food was very good. The portions were so generous we could not even think about dessert. Would definitely return!
I made a reservation here for my husband and I’s one year wedding anniversary. It was a nice, quiet atmosphere and the service was great. The crab and shrimp cakes were delicious! We each got surf and turf, and it was one of the best steaks my husband has ever had. Everything down to the fresh bread and oil were amazing. I’d definitely recommend!
Party of 10. Food and drinks came out quickly and were amazing. Steaks were cook as they should be, the only way. My wife’s shrimp and grits was great. Our server Lilly was fantastic, personable and never left anyone waiting, although we could tell they were busy. Great experience all around.
*please add a dessert cocktail list including a dessert martini and this place would be perfect.
This restaurant is a little hidden. Friendly staff. We had an appetizer of French Onion dip. It was different but tasty. The bread was very, very good. I ordered the swordfish and it was amazing even though the rice was undercooked. The kids meal was an enormous bowl of pasta with marinara. There are no options for sides. You are served what it comes with and I was fine with that. Everything was very good besides the rice.
The staff was amazing - they work together as a team to provide exceptional service! Our server Matt was prompt, personable, and spot on with our orders and requests.
The shareable appetizers were delightful.
The she-crab soup was outstanding as was the bread!
I would certainly suggest everyone make this a part of your OBX experience

This was our first time to OBX and eating here. The service was FAST, the food was DELICIOUS, and the staff was FRIENDLY! Marianna was our waitress and she was delightful. We had a party of 7 and we were seated immediately, got our drinks and appetizers within 5 mins of being seated, and got our meals shortly after that. Everything came out hot and fresh. I got the tuna entree which was fabulous. Do not wait to make a reservation here!!
A charming setting in a design to replicate an old house, it is a very pleasant place. Sam (short for Samantha) was our ebullient, entertaining server who expertly described the menu offerings and made the experience worthy. The tomato pie made fresh in their kitchen....superb. Fried oysters were delicious. And my Wild Mustang Gimlet was a perfect starter. Tuna was tender and rare as ordered.
The whole staff moved with precision in close quarters to expedite the orders to customer satisfaction. Great venue.
Wonderful food! Atmosphere was quiet and beautiful! Cant say enough about our server-she was efficient and very very awesomely friendly and informative about the area! (can’t remember her name but she is engaged to the chef) Highly recommend! Please 👍🏽my review.
Striker is the man. Wow what an amazing establishment and the food was chart topping. Wish I could give 10 🌟 stars. Steak crabcake or salad and soup you can't go wrong. The green beans and potatoes were to die for. 😋 Definitely worth and second and third visit. Thanks for all you did. You rock for Corolla. Big hit for the Banks.
We’ve been coming to Mike D’s off and on for the better part of a decade, mixing it up with other places. The quality of the food is excellent for its main staples - steaks, chicken - however their crab cakes, list of apps, and ability to re-envision the menu is still something to work on. The same mashed potatoes and green beans/carrots have been made for as long as I recall.
An honest sleeper hit is the Grill Salad with steak or chicken and a nice vingeratte. The chefs take pride in a salad means they take pride in their craft. Food is a close 4.5 stars.
Service is great, ask for Jose!
Stayed in Nags Head last week and drove up to meet our in-laws for dinner. The drive was longer than we had expected, but well worth it! I had the seafood pasta and my husband ordered the salmon. We shared an order of mussels and they were seriously the best I’ve eaten outside of the ones we had in Jamaica a few years ago. Our server, Matt, was super polite, very attentive to our needs, and made our dining experience even better. (Side note: He’s quite handsome, too!) :) Be sure to put this restaurant on you vacation to-do-list!
We had brunch here today and we will be back! Food was delicious and drinks on point! Only suggestion is to rethink the music playing, with such a great atmosphere a different Playlist would have made it so much more! But seriously, food was SO good!!!
