Menu is significantly pared down from previous model. Pricier, but the quality and presentation make it worth it. Half the mahi-mahi fish tacos and my daughter had black bean burger and fries. Both were vastly better than past years. Keggy was our server and I asked if they made shots, she said what were you thinking? I replied we were in Duck so I'd like a Duck fart, she said no, you're in Kitty Hawk, so I ordered the Kitty Hawk Rooster, and she explained to me where the name originated. Friendly staff, personable service. Only complaint, the AC upstairs was blowing right on us, so it was a little chilly. Would recommend to anyone. $60 for appetizer, two handheld meals and one cocktail. Two thumbs up!!!

This was my first time here and will be my last. I arrived at 4:30 today (Thursday). A woman opened…read morethe door and said they were closed for cleaning and they would open at 5. So I waited a half hour for them to open. I asked for a booth where I could have room to work and eat and the hostess walked me over to a 4 top, which would've been perfect. The 2 tops are tiny. She said she would have to ask if could sit there, which was odd because it just opened and not many people were there. She talked to the gentleman at the bar-- who I assume was in charge. Based on the words exchanged, it seemed problematic from his perspective for me to sit there, despite the mostly empty restaurant. Since I'm a lawyer, I work where I dine much of the time and never experienced such a problem trying to get seated. The hostess asked me if upstairs was okay and suggested it would be quieter. Assuming she was taking me to a 4 top upstairs, I went up with her only to find there were a bunch of 2-tops. At that point, it felt as if I was not heard or cared about--as if I were unwelcome--despite being pleasant with the staff from the moment I walked in. So I was about to go back down the stairs and said it's okay I'll just go somewhere else. Then a woman on the staff overheard me and it was suggested I could sit at the bar. I explained that's not a good space because the bar area can become loud. And this is especially so when people become intoxicated. So basically my options were a little two-top or the bar. I ended up leaving. I worked very hard in the restaurant industry before I enlisted in the Coast Guard and eventually became an attorney, which is why I always make it a point to be polite to service staff. And I would've never treated people the way I was treated here. I could understand them not wanting me to take up the space of a 4 top if it were a Friday, a weekend, or later in the day, but this is Thursday right at opening time at 5pm when the restaurant isn't even busy. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant.

The portion is huge, enough to share. Always a favorite of ours.

The location is very convenient to a variety of shops and a great way to kill some time before a 4PM rental check-in.

The staff is always quick to help fix any issues that arise and they are kind and knowledgeable. The sound side dining is nice and perfect with a breeze. The only negative is that it can get quite hot, which is obviously no fault of the restaurant. Always a great to-go option if the heat is too much to dine in. Also to note is that they have a great selection of beers. This is a family tradition we love coming back to each year and will continue to for years to come!

We started with cocktails which were amazing and the coconut shrimp. Some of the best we've had. For entrees I did the crab cakes which again were amazing and my husband did a chicken dish.

They definitely have gotten this right!

This truck used to be stationed further down the outer banks but has recently moved to Kitty Hawk. Food is made fresh to order. You can call ahead and pickup and pay or you can order at the truck and wait. We waited since it was our first time. The food is delicious. Their meals come with a side of their homemade Pico and fresh chips. I got the Buxton Burger, a 6 oz Patty and added cheese. Comes on a nice roll with all the condiment sauces on the side. I also got onions, pickles and lettuce. Wife got the Wanchese steak sandwich. That was HUGE, she only has had and I enjoyed the rest. Plenty of steak on a nice long bun. I'd probably ask for mustard and Mayo next time. Waffle fries were super fresh and delicious. They will definitely get my vote next time we are looking for a meal or burgers and steak subs.

We were greeted and sat right away, they brought us the standard chips and salsa and even brought out a spicier salsa for me when I asked. Our food was done very quickly, almost too quickly, and that's probably why it wasn't 5 stars. It wasn't bad at all, the food was good, but something was missing- freshness, maybe? From order to table it was probably 7 minutes. I assume things are premade and that makes sense for things that take a while like the birria my daughter got but I was slightly disappointed with the flavor. The place is good, the environment was welcoming and we would definitely go back

Antojitos serves up some seriously delicious food and is the place for Mexican food in the OBX area…read morein my opinion. Here's the deal: Antojitos restaurant features both traditional and Mexican-American with a more traditional leaning in ingredients and most importantly, flavor! One thing that makes this restaurant stand out is that the meat here is marinated and cooked in a traditional style including its Al Pastor option. Something many Mexican restaurants don't do or don't do well. This is then mixed with other ingredients that make the food vibrant, including pickled jalapeños with carrots, custom hot sauces, and Antojitos own crema among others. We tried fajitas which were some of the best I've had, Al Pastor gordita, chicken chile relleno, and a torta cubana. All amazing and made every person in my party want to come back during our trip. Portions are large, you will not go hungry. Prices are very reasonable and definitely less than restaurants "on the strip". The restaurant is medium sized with plenty of seating, including tables that can be used for large parties. Service was fantastic and with a smile. Drinks never went dry. If eating in the restaurant look for specials on the boards which don't appear on the menu. Highly recommend, I will definitely be back. We ate at the Powells Point location and it is absolutely worth the little drive if you are staying on the islands. Happy eating and see you there!
