    This is one of the most popular restaurant in the Outer Banks. Tbats because it is famous for being one of the premier locations to catch the sunset over the sound. The outdoor seating area is dog-friendly too.

    Menu - I opted for the Catch of the Day
    Jennifer D.

    Amazing food and super fast service! The Catch of the Day was delicious! Highly recommend.

    Outside bar area.

    The food was very good with large portions. Our server was so friendly and attentive. The food came out quickly and was exactly as we had requested. We definitely enjoyed our meal. The outside setting was perfect for pictures before our dinner!!

    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.

    Man, this place is loud. It was so noisy inside that it was hard to even hear the people at our table. You'll also want to get here early because this place fills up fast and the wait can get pretty long. The food was good, but it wasn't anything I'd scream and shout about. It's really more of a laid back, social restaurant where people are hanging out and having a good time. I'd come back if I was with a group, but I'd probably avoid the busiest times.

    The best food we've had at OBX, service was also attentive and quick even though they were understaffed for labor day weekend. The scallops were amazing. Hush puppies were sooooo good. Sitting right by the water too was beautiful.

    The view is the best, we sat upstairs for lunch. The green beans were crisp and fresh from the first bite to the last. The lobster roll could have had a little more seasoning. I didn't try the soft shell crab but was told it was good. Service overall was good.

    Outdoor seating over the water

    Waited about 45 minutes in a weeknight for the outdoor seating- definitely worth the wait! The view is beautiful and they have a bar and scenic views while you wait. The food was delicious, we got the calamari app that was great and the entrees were both some of our favorites we had during our week on the OBX. We will be back!

    The windows were closed today-like big garage doors, with a beautiful view while the wind howled out there!

    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!

    Another terrific meal at Miller's Waterfront Restaurant. Food was excellent even the hush puppies were done right. Will say portions could have been bigger. Our waitress was polite, friendly and handled things in a a timely fashion. Atmosphere is pleasant but not exciting. The views are terrific being right on the water. The lemon mascarpone cake is amazing. We have been to this restaurant many times and have not been disappointed. Definitely recommend

    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.

    Large bowl of She Crab soup.

    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!

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.

It has a gritty paste texture to me, which I really didn't care for. My Bf got the tuna noodle and said it was really good. I got the cheesesteak which was pretty big! But unfortunately lacking in the flavor department. Totally not the worst cheesesteak; but nothing to rave about either. But kinda my bad anyways, looking online I thought I was going to enjoy the menu more but I think it's alittle too 'upscale' or unique for my taste. However our waiter was great.

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.

We decided that we would finally try it out with a friend who was visiting for his birthday. The food was not only amazing, the menu was transparent, the customer service was top notch, and the view speaks for itself! We ordered Tuna Tartare (very local tuna), calamari, shrimp burger sliders (so glad the shrimp location not being OBX didn't scare us away), house salad, tuna steak dinner, and the chef Mac burger. No one at our table had a single complaint- not even the 7-year-old who ate half the burger and bites of everyone else's food. Further, there was a hiccup, and the restaurant more than made it up by comping desserts that we otherwise would have never ordered (we're just not dessert people). WHOA were we grateful for that because their desserts are 'write home about it' worthy. As stuffed as I am writing this review, I can't wait to go back to explore the menu further.

I woke up...and had a delicious time! The reviews here tell you how great this place is, and well...believe them! I thought for sure it would be over-hyped and not live up to what people write and say, but I will admit to being wrong. First, our server, Krickett, was agreed upon (by my partner and I) to be the best server we have ever had. She was friendly, outgoing, had good recommendations, and an all-around joy. Second, the food! Wow! My partner had a salad...simple enough, right? But no, she was amazed by it. And she is a vegetarian, so she has had a lot of salads over the years. This one blew her away. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. Was it life-changing? No. But it was way better than what a grilled chicken sandwich normally is. It was tender, juicy, with just the right seasoning.

The restaurant has two distinct dining areas: the front section is first-come first-served bar seating that offers the full menu. The back section, which would be ideal for families, holds about 30 tables, mostly booths, with the hostess stand. We chose to sit at the bar and had a great experience. We started with bruschetta topped with burrata cheese. I ordered the angel hair pasta in a white garlic butter, cream sauce with marinated chicken and grilled vegetables. My husband ordered the special hamburger with Swiss cheese bacon, spinach and mayo with a side of fries. We ended with slices of the key lime pie that didn't disappoint! The food, service, staff and environment were exceptional! We overheard the Server mention that veterans receive complementary meals on Veterans Day, which speaks volumes about how this restaurant supports those who have served.
