Amazing food and great service! We will definitely be going back! Great atmosphere too!

Excellent food and great service in a casual atmosphere and great views of the sunset. Be aware that they do not take reservations but they have a bar area and a deck in the nice weather where you can wait. The menu has a good amount of variety and everything was fresh and prepared just as we ordered. Our server Morgan was very friendly and took great care of us. The Oregon inlet tuna was excellent blackened and prepared perfectly medium. My wife had the Trawl Boat combo and everything was great but, everything was swimming in butter. The shrimp and scallops are locally sourced. A little less butter and the dish would have been better. The special blackberry bourbon bread pudding with vanilla ice cream was killer. So delicious. Can't wait to go back. Oh and get the hush puppies!! read more

Absolutely loved this place. Extremely family friendly and service was great. Came here on Easter Sunday for an early lunch and we were seated right away. Food came out really quick, perfect when you have inpatient kids. My husband and I both ordered the combo fried basket and got the coconut shrimp, flounder, regular shrimp, and fried oysters. The seafood here is insanely good and was so fresh. We also shared calamari and spinach dip which was also a 10/10! Our server was great- made sure our waters were always filled, food was good, and gave us extra napkins without us asking! Would definitely recommend this to anyone coming to visit the area! Also helps there's a beautiful view of the water. read more

Wonderful views, good service, ok food. We went to this location after we tried the Dare Trail location, expecting it to be a step above. Other than the views of the bay, which are perfect, we enjoyed the other location better. The menu here seemed more limited, the hush puppies were an additional charge and they gave you fewer of them, and other than a nice beer selection it just didn't match the experience at the other Miller's for us. Still a great experience and worth a visit. read more

We liked our salads so much yesterday that after an incredibly windy beach hike we fed out appetites in the rooftop bar, which was sealed tightly against that crazy wind, but still offered a beautiful view of the kite surfers taking full advantage of the weather. The menu was similar to downstairs but more lunch appropriate, and still had specials and a lot of great choices. We had the tuna tacos and tuna in pesto in ciabatta with waffle fries (perfectly prepared, I might add-not greasy, overly salty or skimpy in portion-just perfect!). Wow! How could 2 meals in a row be so delicious? I'd eat here every day if I could! The service was quick and super friendly, down to the last person we spoke with. What a great vibe. Way to go, Miller's! read more

Such a cute restaurant with a great coastal, seafood vibe--perfect for the Outer Banks. I had the coconut shrimp and my husband ordered the scallops topped with crab meat, and both dishes were outstanding. Everything came out quickly, the temperature was perfect, and the quality was honestly a 10/10. Our waitress, Casey was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot we'd come back to! read more

Fresh and tasty. We stopped in at sunset and was told it would be a 45 minute wait, but we actually only waited 10. Sweet! We had an amazing sunset view over the water. I had the brussel sprouts and the blacked mahi-mahi gnocchi, goodness I licked the plates clean. We were taken care of by missy and she knew her stuff. I can't wait to get back. read more

My chicken fontina was really good, as was the potato and coleslaw. We had a window seat overlooking the bay. The menu was a bit limited for me, who doesn't like seafood. The service was very good, but the restaurant was quite loud. read more

Great location on the OBX for a sunset dinner. While we ate in the main restaurant, with so many great views, there is also a bar area with outside seating---when the weather is a bit nicer than it was for us, would have to be one of the best places to grab a cold beverage and enjoy a sunset. Tried their "world famous" hush puppies and they certainly were up there with some of the best we've had here. Also tried their she crab soup and you could tell this was legit homemade---large chunks of crab and a healthy serving. Absolutely NOT soup from a can! read more

Miller's Waterfront Restaurant - Large bowl of She Crab soup. - Seafood Near Me - Nags Head, North Carolina

I will say that the she crab soup might be the best soup I have ever had. Thick creamy meaty and flavorful. The fish sandwich was ok. Too much onion, not enough fish. Heard the calamari was good as were the brussel sprouts. Extremely busy and crowded. Be prepared to wait. Mixed reviews on the orange crush. I thought not as good as other places, some people thought it was better. Not sure where to go on that one. The waitstaff was very attentive even with a packed house read more

I 100% recommend this place. The food was fresh and delicious. Me and my mom came here and we had an amazing time. Our waitress Tina I believe is her name was actually so kind. She helped us figure out what beaches to go to and places to visit. She was so lovely. The atmosphere was very calm. We chose to sit outside and the sunset was as pretty as it can be with the clouds covering it but it was so peaceful and I would 100% come back! read more

Miller's Waterfront Restaurant - Fried seafood trio. So good! We took some of it to go as well and it was still fresh. - Seafood Near Me - Nags Head, North Carolina

I think if I wasn't a single taking a Four top so that I could enjoy the breeze coming off of the Harbor and taking pictures I might have been treated better I was pretty much ignored after my food was delivered until I had one scallop left that being said the food was fantastic the scallop appetizer was amazing loved the accompanying sauce and seaweed salad. The onion rings are definitely homemade. And as a single I usually eat appetizers so that I can taste more of one thing unfortunately my beer sat at the bar for about 10 minutes before it was delivered to me so it was yucky but anyway just the way it is. The place was definitely packed No Doubt but I really felt ignored by my server. read more

Went to the other Millers because it said Dogs allowed- no they are not. This one on the waterfront does allow them on the back porch. We put our name on the wait list and walked around back. We were told we could get drinks out there but the outside bar wasn't open. My husband went in and got drinks- I got a mint coconut mock mojito- it wasn't good- tasted only like coconut mix - it dis have 2 mint leaves thrown on top (not even crushed) We were seated at the top of the ramp (traffic of people was busy and sunny) Our server was very nice and cheerful. I ordered the salad with rare tuna and raspberry vinaigrette dressing. It was very good. My husband got the fried shrimp with cocktail sauce (she kept forgetting to bring the cocktail sauce) third time by she remembered (by then he was almost done with hi sides) Place has a great view. read more

Had lunch here Mother's Day 2025. She crab soup starter was good, and we got the fried flounder baskets. Fries were nice and crispy, cole slaw has just a hint of Old Bay which is great and the flounder was good - especially with malt vinegar. More of a classier dining place, with a great sunset view of the sound if you're there that time of day. read more

We arrive around 5 on a Wednesday evening. The parking is tricky and possibly a fire hazard there's only one way in and you have to do a 360 if their designated parking area is full. But theres parking in neighboring venues. It was busy and our wait time was 30 minutes. Which was probably the likely scenario for all restaurants around this time. The wait wasn't too bad there's a scenic waiting area out back with a view of the inner bay. We took a lot of photos and viewed the menu. Thats how we learned that There was another restaurant upstairs; sunset bar and grill, it was smaller and was 45 mins wait but our table was ready. Time passed pretty quickly. There was a special menu besides the regular menu and we ordered with ease. Our waitress did not keep us waiting throughout the night she was attentive even for how busy it was. We ordered 3 apps, 3 entrees and a kid meal. We played Uno as we waited.. the artichoke spinach dip was good tasted like fresh artichokes, the calamari was perfect none was overly fried, the Brussels was sooo good! honestly everything was good. No complaints at all except the veggies but to be fair my family don't do veggies but I liked the medley of veggies and mash potatoes. I would come here again. read more

Down in OBX for a few days staying at our favorite spot, First Colony Inn, and headed out to Miller's Waterfront for dinner. Such a classic setting, overlooking the sound. A menu with many options and seafood choices. Tonight, we both decided on the Trawl Boat which had scallops, a crab cake and shrimp. All were delicious. This place makes amazing hush puppies too! We had a brownie with ice cream for dessert and it was a perfect ending to an excellent meal!! Our server was so nice, knowledgeable and attentive! We got there at 5pm and were seated pretty quick, but there was a long line when we were leaving. I do recommend eating early in the OBX during vacation season, or just plan to wait. This is one of our favorites and they did not disappoint tonight! read more

This was the easiest 5 I have given out in a while. The atmosphere is a 10. There is both inside and outside seating. The feel is beach casual, but I feel like it is a little nicer than other beach spots. There is a long deck that you can walk out on with a drink if there is a wait. Wes was our server. He did a great job waiting on us and was friendly, efficient, and our order was put in and delivered to our table with perfection. I didn't even get to the food! Awesome! I had the sample tray. It had scallops, shrimp, and a crab cake. My son had crab legs. My daughter had calamari. Lastly, my wife had the She Crab Soup. Everything was awesome. We generally stay further north in Corolla, but if you get close to the Nagshead area, this is a must lunch or dinner! read more

My girlfriend ordered a salad with fish and made sure to let our waitress know that she has a gluten allergy. Despite this, she was served a salad with a wheat wafer in it. When she expressed concern to our server, she told her to just "feed it to your husband." And that if she sent it back that they would probably just remove it and send the same salad back. So the kitchen and waitstaff have zero understanding of allergies and the implications of serving someone with an allergy, food that will cause an allergic reaction. This is why I am giving this place two stars. On top of that, the service was under par for the cost of dinner. All that said, the she crab soup was really good. Very thick with a decent amount of crab. I got the sunset flounder and it was pretty good. It wasn't good by itself, but with the crab hollandaise sauce on top and a little bit of lemon it was good. The mashed potatoes were delicious. My veggies were cold but good. Despite the gluten added to her gluten-free salad, my girlfriend enjoyed her Millers Signature Salad with seared Tuna on the side. We picked this restaurant for the view and for the fact t hey have gluten-free options called out on their menu as GF...but we were completely disappointed with the service and how her allergy was handled. I was going to get dessert but since our server became a ghost after our dinner was dropped off we decided to get it elsewhere. read more

Not going to lie. We had high hopes, but they were dashed to bits. When we walked in, the place smelled like stale banquet food. The service was lackluster; our server seemed quite flighty. When our food came out, mashed potatoes were ice cold and solid. The "fresh" vegetables were ice cold. Two of us ordered flounder which was bland with broken hollandaise sauce. One of us ordered a steak mid-rare, not only were his sides ice cold, his steak was marked by the grill and raw to the point that even the serrated knife couldn't even cut it. The manager made sure it was recooked and we got the hot sides we were due, but their mashed potatoes had even less flavor than the fish. We were offered four free desserts which we accepted, but the server forgot to bring them to us, so we missed watching the sunset outside. Overall, I'd never go back again. read more

The food is delicious and appropriately priced for what you are getting. The view is beautiful and it is great for lunch, with smaller crowds and an easy ability to get a table. The drinks were strong and the staff was pleasant! The Philly chicken sandwich needs to be renamed or removed from the menu, as it is a poor representation of what is eaten in the city of brotherly love read more

Food was hit or miss for our party. My son got the fish tacos and said they were some of the best he ever had. I had the shrimp and grits and thought they were just ok. My daughter got a burger and was not impressed (but I think she requested it to be overcooked well done). The waitress was very nice and prompt but seemed to get a little frazzled with our large party. Not too big of a deal but certainly noticeable. The location is excellent. read more

This restaurant is a must visit in Nags head, firstly for the views! We opted to sit outside and it was gorgeous. I would recommend maybe a fan to move the air a bit but great for a mild summer day. Started the meal with cheese curds. So good, you must get them! My mahi mahi was good, needed more seasoning but the mango salsa on top was great! Cooked perfectly. My husband said the tuna was good but also needed more seasoning. My lemon drop martini was great and strong! The girls enjoyed chicken tenders and fries. They also loved the views as well. We arrived around 4:15 and did not have a wait but would recommend arriving earlier as there seemed to be a longer wait after 5pm. Service was good, with an attentive waitress! read more

Wow! This spot was a home run on all fronts. Starting with the food: The seafood was so fresh and tender. Ordered the fried oysters, broiled scallops, and the soft shell crabs. The batters on the crabs were super light and did not detract from the flavors of each individually. The batter on the friend oysters were a bit heavier but the oysters themselves were very fresh and cleaned so well. The scallops were perfectly broiled and buttered - I got a couple with sand and harder bits but the rest were cleaned perfectly. Each dish came with mashed potatoes, a zucchini based mixed vegetable side, and the portions for each type of seafood were generous. The sauvignon blanc wine was also smooth and paired well with the dishes. Also split a lemon mascarpone cake slice which was moist, bouncy, bursting with fresh lemon flavor, and layered with light layers of mascarpone icing. Delicious! Outside of the food, the venue itself is gorgeous. Right by the water and perfect for sunset. The dock is great for waiting with a drink in hand. Didn't have any issues with mosquitoes despite being on the sound side. The service was exceptionally kind and smooth. Our waitress, Cassie, was terrific! Very quick, sweet, and multitasking very efficiently. We were seated with at least 4 other parties in the room and she was bringing bills and menus while carrying drinks and entrees on a platter all at once. The young boys cleaning the tables too after parties left also were very thorough yet efficient. Parking wasn't too bad when we came but the lot was full when we left. We arrived around 7p on a Sunday, was told we would have upwards of an hour wait, but were seated in 25 minutes, so not too bad! Pricing for the amount of seafood on dishes was really fair. There is a 3% credit card fee so consider brining cash! Overall, this place hit the mark on everything and was superb. Would highly recommend! read more

Great seafood choices, prompt service. We arrived this rainy evening around 5pm, did not have to wait and we were a party of 2. A.J. was our server, he was busy, but attentive.

The family and I had dinner here. We chose to eat here based on the recommendation from the hotel for a good seafood restaurant that is family-friendly. The service was very quick, and the food was good for the price we paid. Heads up: There is a coupon book that is pretty common in Nags Head, which has a coupon for Miller's Seafood & Steak House. That's a completely different restaurant, don't try to use coupons here. read more

Beautiful views of the water from a comfortable air-conditioned dining room. We stopped here for lunch on a Sunday as a party of 2 and were seated right away. Our waitress was attentive, patient, and friendly. Our meal started off with hushpuppies, spinach and artichoke crab dip, and a coconut margarita. The margarita was delicious and strong. I enjoyed sipping on it while gazing out over the water. For our main course we had the mahi tacos and crab legs. The crab legs were cooked perfectly and the tacos were flavorful and filling. Although full, we wanted to try the homemade desserts and ordered the chocolate torte and key lime pie to go (both were delicious). Only thing we didn't like about our visit (which is in no way the restaurant's fault) was the very loud and obnoxious table beside us. Any conversation we had was drowned out by their loud discussion and their child playing on his iPad. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our visit and recommend this restaurant to others! read more

After driving down to Salvo, we decided to have a late lunch/early supper. Not many places open this time of year on the Outer Banks. Miller's Waterfront, open 11-9, was open. Walked straight in, and straight to a table. The restaurant has a waterfront feel without being too beachy. Server took our drink order and gave us ample time to check out the menu. We ordered fried shrimp and Po' boy sandwich. Our hush puppy basket (you have to order separately, $6 for a dozen) does not come with the meal) were hot and light tasting with a slight sweet taste. Fried shrimp was hot and lightly battered. Tasted very good but you have to dig for that last bite tucked in the end of the shell. Would not pull out on its own. . Po'boy with oysters was great. I requested small oysters and the cook did their best to grant the request. With lettuce, tomato dices, banana peppers, I topped with cocktail sauce and a little tartar sauce. French fries were cooked perfectly, hot and crispy. We enjoyed our meal and will recommend it to others. read more
