All of it was quite lackluster but the scallops were good. I also expected the shrimp burger to be a patty similar to a crab cake, but instead it was individual fried shrimp on a bun.

We dined here for lunch and there was a line almost out the front door at 12:45pm. You place your order and pay at the counter then get your beverage and then find a seat and someone will bring out your order. The order number is on the receipt so hang onto it at least until your order arrives. In spite of how busy the restaurant was, we managed to find an open table inside. There are also some tables outside in back. It was a bit chilly when we were there so we stayed in. One of the daily specials was the club which I ordered on rye with potato salad. My wife got the chicken Caesar wrap with macaroni salad. Both were very good and a good value.

BLUF: Quality sandwiches, full service bar and excellent service…read more Poor Richard's Sandwich Shop is a classic Manteo business that has been there as long as I can remember. Poor Richard's is located on the water and offers scenic views of the Elizabeth II and people milling around Manteo. The sandwiches are always tasty as are their sides. Poor Richard's offer a full menu of both cold and hot sandwiches including some southern favorites like Pimento cheese and coastal classics like a crab cake sandwich. Not to be overlooked are their sides like their pasta salad and cucumber salad. Poor Richard's is open for lunch and then closes to reset before reopening for dinner. Whether dining on the back patio or in the front bar or getting it to go, their hearty sandwiches are fulfilling and quality.

This was our first and most certainly not our last time eating at Fish Heads. We got our food to go…read morebut had to go inside to pick it up, and wow! This place has an incredible vibe and even better view of the water. It was very busy and you could tell it is loved by both tourists and locals. Despite how busy they were, the staff were very friendly and attentive. We got an order of coconut shrimp, fish tacos, shrimp basket (with sweet potato fries), and fish basket (with sweet potato fries). It was all delicious!!! Firstly, they do not skimp on portion size. The fish and shrimp were all fresh and full of flavor. The coconut shrimp was the best I've had, and I love that they have sweet potato fries as an option. The tartar sauce and remoulade were very flavorful, and complimented the seafood perfectly. I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a place to eat in Nags Head!

Blue Water Grill has never let us down. This seemed like a good place for lunch on Valentine's Day…read more It was sunny and bright, and the restaurant's windows provide a great view. We shared a cup of Shrimp and Roasted Red Pepper soup from the daily specials. It was delicious, with a little tartness that gave it backbone. Perhaps from sour cream. It was perhaps a little bit overthickened but was short of pasty and we enjoyed it. I would have been happy with a bowl of this for my lunch, but I had other plans. The decision is easy for Ms T. I know before we leave the house that she is ordering fried shrimp and they are excellent here. They are large, plump, tender, flavorful and cooked just right. They don't have a silly heavy batter. Lately we have had at least three instances of undercooked shrimp. These were perfect. They were accompanied by a mound of very good French fries and some acceptable slaw. The sauce for the shrimp is a very good, mustardy sauce. I ordered Baja tacos, blackened and did not regret it. They are served in nicely toasted flour tortillas with cabbage for crunch and a creamy sauce. The mahi was seasoned and blackened well. It is served with a good roasted tomato sauce and some beans over rice. My only regret is that I should have asked them to omit the onion laced pico de gallo. Two large tacos were too much so one came home with me. This was a great lunch for Valentines's day.

Service at the bar was excellent drinks were fresh and superb but let me tell you about the food we had!! Honey Sriracha tuna bites as an appetizer I asked for more sauce which they probably provided they melted in your mouth. My friend ordered the shrimp and grits I have to tell you they are better than any that I've ever had including the ones I've eaten in Charleston South Carolina. I ordered the fried combo which consisted of flounder, shrimp,a small crab cake, scallops, fries and coleslaw the batter was so light it was like they dipped it in the batter and pulled it out immediately. I was totally amazed at the quality of food and the quantity of food I have enough left over for probably two meals.
