Seafood Restaurants in Outer Banks
North Banks
Oh my goodness, the North Banks is beyond-good and has been delivering supreme food for over twenty years. Everything is prepared in-house and the seafood is from local catch, so if you’re looking for fresh seafood, look no further. Some of the things we love are hushpuppies, fresh-oysters, and a relaxed local environment.
I Got Your Crabs
Oh goodness, don’t let the funny name fool you, this place is the real-deal. It’s a family owned hot-spot with tons of local history creating some of the finest foods in Outer Banks. Local catch, steamed, and fried for your enjoyment. If you’re craving seafood or more specifically blue crab, this is going to be your go-to-place to dine.
Awful Arthur’s Oyster Bar
This place is far from awful and the name is just historical considering their food is off-the-charts. This place has one of the best raw-bars we’ve ever been too and might be the best in Outer Banks. Awful Arthurs was actually opened almost 35 years ago and has withstood the test of time creating excellent dishes. Get the oysters if you plan to go to this restaurant.
