Huevos Mexicanos
Jon T.

We have been fans of Los Antojitos location in Powell's Point. It is a bit of a drive there, so we did not go a lot. We were pleased to see a new location opening in Nags Head. We stopped in for lunch at the new location recently. The menu is essentially the same. They feature street tacos. You can get lengua, carne asada, barbacoa, birria, carnitas and campechanos. I think the taco menu is their strength, but they have a nice menu of other items. This is definitely more home-style cooking than the other Mexican restaurants around. We went for lunch and I am forever ordering huevos. They offer huevos al gusto. Mi gusto was huevos rancheros but apparently that is not a gusto that is allowed. So, you can have your choice as long as it is their choice too; that is Huevos Mexicanos. That is what I had, and they were fine. On the menu, they warn you that they are "Hot!" (due to the inclusion of chiles Jalapenos), but they were not hot at all, at least not on this day. Ms T always just wants one or two ground beef tacos and orders them a-la-cart. This also was not allowed, so she had an order of three, called Jason's Tacos. This was OK because the tacos were small. The food was fine. They are a little bit inflexible, or at least the server that we had was. Nevertheless, I am giving four stars for the good offering of taco meats. You can't get lengua many places around here. If you are looking for street tacos, this is your place, locally. Do not under any circumstances go to OBX Taqueria y Panaderia. That would be a big mistake.

Tried this new OBX Mexican place for supper tonight, and a few things stand out in my memory: The staff was outstanding - my server was friendly, helpful, and genuinely wanted me to have the best experience possible. The horchata was deliciously flavored and came in a huge mug - oh so refreshing on this crazy-hot day! My enchilada was a bit above average for "Carolina-Mex" restaurants. The esquite, basically street corn in a bowl, ate like a rich chowder, with more liquid than I expected; it was satisfying and I'd get it again. I wondered about the Toreado Jalapeño and was told it was hot. "Gringo hot?" I asked. "No, more like Mexican hot." was the reply. I tried it and the description was apt - my mouth was on fire but it was a good fire, pungently flavored and just shy of pain.

The owner was extremely pleasant and the service was great! Both my dinner partner, and myself enjoyed every bite of our food. Prices were lower than at other restaurants. I highly recommend LOS Antojitos! Their other location across the bridge has lovely tequilas and other assorted adult beverages! You will not be disappointed!

The Miguel burrito steak is always a really good choice great food and authentic atmosphere

Shrimp tacos

Small, cozy little place tucked in a shopping center. We love our Mexican food and couldn't wait to try this new place. Delicious, home cooked food brought out hot and fresh! Beans and rice was on point. Birria was so tender! My husband said the shrimp tacos were yummy. There's a lot on the menu that you don't see at the other places down here. We will be back!!

Piña & Horchata Agua Fresca (Large portions!)

Seems like a new establishment. We decided to go here for dinner given the low reviews of other nearby Mexican restaurants. Very clean and kind staff. The prices were very reasonable and the portion sizes very generous. The aguas frescas were delicious! I would come back to try more food items.

Nachos

Driving into the OBX on Sunday evening, we wanted Mexican and found Los Antojitos Nag's Head celebrating their grand opening. Small, bright, and clean, with typical Mexican restaurant style and fare. We enjoyed the elote in a cup (esquite?). The nachos, and rice & beans were pretty standard fare. The birria tacos were tasty and the dipping concomme was very good flavor. The chicken tamal was also good flavor, and the masa was moist, not too overcooked, so yay! We didn't have enough room for dessert, but will happily return again for more menu options.

We came just before the snowstorm. The food was very delicious. We started out with guacamole and chips. We had the chori steak and elote, which came with handmade tortillas. We also had the Carne Asada dinner, fried whole fish dinner, and carnitas dinner. All the dinners came with beans and rice. And freshly made tortillas. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was comfortable. The restaurant is rather small. We also had a tamale, which was so delicious we ordered 6 more togo. The hot sauces on the table were very good (great flavors, not a lot of heat). We will have to order some online. The green habenero was my favorite.

Coca Cola from Mexico. No artificial ingredients like the United States.

We ordered the fried green tomato special of the day, which came with burrata and salad. It was incredible. My partner ordered the catch of the day, which was blackened swordfish with risotto. He loved it! I ordered the mahi mahi BLT. They were extremely generous with their portion size for the fish, bacon, and especially the fries. The ambiance is very nice! Inside had plenty of space for folks to be seated without being crowded, but it was never too loud. They have bar seating, tables, and outdoor dining. The art is locally sourced. I signed up for their waitlist to get a reservation, and it worked! I was able to snag one. Thankfully I did, since they were busy and had a wait for over an hour for walk ins. Highly recommend planning ahead! If you end up waiting, they have several places for you to wait including outside in the shade with some games and seating area.

The parking lot was packed, and we were told the wait would be 30-45 minutes ... but we were seated in less than 10 minutes! The restaurant is beautiful and classy, and the menu had so many things that sounded phenomenal. Prices were a little higher than we wanted to spend that evening, so we opted for sandwiches. A cheeseburger for my husband and a chicken sandwich for me. His came with fries, while I chose the rice and beans. Our food took at least 30 minutes, and we were told the kitchen was having trouble keeping up. The presentation wasn't particularly photo-worthy, but those rice and beans were off the charts! I could eat them every day. They had such a unique flavor. I couldn't quite figure out what was in them, but I suspect there may have been a hint of nutmeg. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive until we were nearly finished. It did take quite a while to get our check and payment processed. I'd definitely return. There were so many appetizers, drinks, and desserts I wanted to try. Next time, I'd be prepared to spend a little more!

I've been here with a party of 12 before, and we definitely waited a while, but I was impressed that they were able to accommodate a group that size. This time, I was with a party of two and we were seated pretty quickly. My one complaint about the wait system is that they announce when your table is ready, but if you're out of earshot, you'll miss it. It would be nice if they used a text, call, or buzzer system so you could walk down to the beach while you wait. Part of the pier seating is covered, but the farther you go out, the more exposed you are. We were seated near the end, so it was hot in the direct sun and very windy. But that comes with the territory, and the views make it worth it. There are also plenty of birds hoping you'll share your fries with them, which is both expected and pretty funny. We each ordered a Pain Killer. It was good at first, but it quickly became watered down, and I didn't think it was worth $10. We also got the nachos, but the price adds up quickly once you start adding toppings. Most of the menu is very à la carte. The prices seem reasonable at first, but sides and toppings can add up fast. The burgers don't come with fries, for example. We both got the West Coast Burger. It was good, but nothing particularly memorable. Service was attentive and generally friendly. Overall, Fish Heads is one of the better dining options in the area. The pier setting and views really make the experience unique. I enjoy coming here and will likely be back.
