Great food and accommodating for our large group, especially on a Friday night at prime time! Todd was an awesome server, took great care of us and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! Sounds like lots of fun activities during the week, wish we would have come sooner in the week to enjoy the trivia, exc. read more

Todd was a great server for us i've been to duck for years and always been to this spot always great service and food also nice view

This isn't a place that has "bar food," it has "bar seafood." My girlfriend and I ate here on two occasions. Kat was our first server and she was excellent on all levels. My Hendrick's Gin martini was perfect. However, the Brie and Bacon Oysters hid the oysters to the point where I could barely taste them. The She Crab Soup was so heavy with cream that I could barely taste the crab. My girlfriend did enjoy her Buffalo Chicken Dip. Our second trip came by her family's invitation. Again, I had an excellent martini. This time, I ordered the Mahi Grilled Sandwich, which was a Reuben without the corned beef and sauerkraut. That was really wonderful. The large piece of mahi mahi was tender and delicious. Other family members enjoyed their angus burgers. None of the food arrived at the same time for everyone, including the drinks. The exterior of the place is nice for dining. Although the interior is air conditioned, it has more of a dormitory dining hall feel. The bathrooms could be cleaner as well. read more

Sunset has a great sound side view and dock area in OBX. They have a lot of fun drinks with cups that you're able to keep. The food varied, the Brussels sprouts weren't as cooked as we would've liked but the cheese curds and sauce were very good. As for entrees, the pasta and mahi were a hit. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at the Sunset Grille! The drinks and entrees were fantastic, and my kids loved the kids menu options. The service was top notch - very polite and responsive. Don't sleep on the key lime pie - it was delicious! read more

We hit this place every year for our adult dinner w/o the kids. Had 9 people, very busy, food was a little slow coming out but worth the wait. Shout out to the staff busting their butts serving a lot of tables and still getting to food out warm. All of us ordered a lot of different things off the menu including a lot of apps, everything was fresh and hot, and tasted good. They sell a lot of mixed drinks in funky glasses, can be expensive but good taste. read more

This multi-level spot was on the bay with a tiki bar and lively views. The menu had a Caribbean fare to it for the most part. The service was appreciated, and the food came out promptly. For an appetizer, the Brussel sprouts ($11?) were ordered. They came with a sautéed brown butter, balsamic vinegar, garlic, toasted pine nuts, and parmesan. These were alright. I liked the mix of flavors, mostly the toasted pine nuts and balsamic, but they were not cooked enough. They needed to be a tad crispier. For an entrée, I had the Bayou Cajun redfish ($32?). It came with shrimp, Cajun cream sauce, Pico de Gallo, black beans, and rice. This was a hearty dish. There was a ton of rice and beans that had good flavor with a large red fish filet too. The seasoning and sauce were alright. I thought the sauce needed more of a Cajun flavor to it. I also tried a special that was being offered the night I attended. It was a seafood trio. It consisted of crab meat, scallops, and shrimp with broccolini. It was cooked in a light butter sauce. This was simple and done right. Will I go back? Probably. read more

Update: Coming back here after a couple of years and we had a party of 11. They sat us at a table with only 10 seats and to make room they added another table in front of the emergency exit. We asked if they could seat us somewhere else because one of our party preferred another table that was available and we were there early to have our choice of seats in a first come first served restaurant. They offered us another section with a 45 minute wait and when we asked about another section they said no because their policy was they had to spread out the customers. They prioritized their seating procedure over paying customers so we left. read more

We enjoyed a delicious dinner and dessert on the deck just before sunset, then walked down the dock to watch the sun slip away. It was lovely. Staff were friendly and accommodating. read more

food was absolutely astronomical i got the salmon lover bowl and let me tell you i sure was a salmon lover. the salmon melted in my mouth while the crunchy seaweed and the creamy avocado worked together to make my meal devine. 10/10 i recommend to everyone read more

Despite the reviews, we decided to try this restaurant and Wow! What great experience! The view was amazing! We arrived without reservations and yet we were given a great table with a view of the water. Our server Cyerra was so sweet, gave us great recommendations and the cocktails were fantastic, we had the Painkillers and Caribbean Koolaid and got to keep the fun glasses as souvenirs. We ordered the fire cracker shrimp, island mahi mahi, and coconut shrimp-- all were delicious! Even the fresh brewed coffee was wonderful! Highly recommend! Don't miss this place! Great food and great service!! read more

We got there early to beat the crowd get a table indoors, around 445, we did not get one until 615 at that point we decided to grab a table outdoors. We had a great waitress, but we're incredibly disappointed by the overall service amazing location, but they have to get their act together. So we would not recommend. read more

service was amazing and drinks and food were very good, good vibes all around, the view was beautiful

Sunset Grille I've been to twice now, both times were incredible!! The view and scenery is amazing, the cocktails are awesome, so many unique ones to try. I had 3 appetizers and a dinner. Their Oysters are great, but their clam chowder is legendary. I recommend all seafood lovers give it a shot, I wish we had chowder like that at home. Perfect consistency and lots of big clams. One employee Onica, in the selfie attached, deserves a raise & should be the face of the business. She is incredibly dedicated to bringing good energy and happy customers back to eat. Taking pictures for people, laughing and making everyone smile. I think she was just a hostess, but wow she needs to be recognized. If you see her there please acknowledge her! read more

The reviews on this place are accurate. I wouldn't waste any of my money to come here. Food just wasn't good and also made one person in the party have immediate stomach pain. Ribs were dry, macaroni and cheese was concrete thick, grouper is what made someone feel sick, scallop appetizer was overpriced for 3 overcooked bbq drenched food, grouper was rubbery and not fresh. Food was overpriced for having awful quality and overcooked entrees. Bartender has no idea what he was doing and drinks came out disgusting. Water tasted bad and drinks were way too sugary. The server was kind and very on top of helping us. read more

My family and I walked over to this restaurant from our nearby Air BNB for a late dinner and we were pleasantly surprised! Todd was our server and he was hospitable, patient, and helped us with making our meal selections. The coconut shrimp was delicious! Each of us had a fish entree (salmon, grouper, mahi mahi, etc) and enjoyed every single of them. Highly recommend trying out! The view of the sunset is also worth it. read more

This beach bar is more of a destination for Jello shots and beer pong. With its plain decor, institutional feel and sugary drink menu, I knew this was just going to be a few drinks before dinner. They have great staff and a beautiful view of the water, but first impressions drove my dinner plans to a warmer and more intimate view of the water. Cheers! read more

We came here for dinner. Judging by other Yelp reviews, we tampered our expectations a bit which was helpful. People were probably trying hard, we just weren't impressed by the service. The food was good, I got the pictured special (lobster, shrimp, and scallops with a vodka sauce and cheese gnocchi) but nothing at our table was amazing. Take that back, the view at sunset was amazing, which is why we chose this place after all. Beautiful sunset! read more

Great sunset views (obviously). The inside looks like it is newly remodeled or refreshed. Service was excellent. Food was good. Cocktails were not the best. My "margarita " tasted like lime juice. Husband doesn't like it when places don't have whiskey ice cubes. read more

Dishonest bar manager and servers. I observed dishonest charges placed on the tab of the group next to me and they also over charged my card beyond the generous tip I left. They steal from their customers. read more

excellent, fresh food. the mahi mahi tacos were fantastic. Kyle was our server - very friendly and helpful.

Awesome views good food. So my mom and group of our OBX vacation friends and family decided to come here for a light dinner. I previously had fond memories of this place with my parents years ago but the conch fritters I loved were no longer there. My drink of choice was the Caribbean Kool-aid I ordered a cup of New England clam chowder, a dozen oysters garlic Parmesan lobster fries. My mom ordered the fried oysters with fries and slaw. The chowder broth was super thick and the taste was bland the temperature was not hot enough so I sent it back for the she crab soup which was good. The fries were flavorful but Warm my mom said her fried oysters were good but the slaw was sour other then that the food that I was supposed to hot needed to be hot but the view is beautiful! read more

The overall rating on YELP does not do this place justice nor accurately reflect the quality of food and service provided. Recently renovated and overlooking the Currituck sound, I really enjoy their seafood and service. The dishes are delicious and there's no pretentiousness involved with meals here, a characteristic that isn't often common for a lot of restaurants in the touristy parts of Duck. Even on a busy night the hostess will find a way to sneak you in. There are a few arcade games on the upper deck to allow for entertainment with kids. Local craft brew beers are available and the bar serves delicious. cocktails too. I ordered their mahi-mahi special with mango salsa, coupled with mashed potatoes, and broccoli rabe. The brussels sprouts as an appetizer were also delicious with lemon, sea salt, and olive oil. Overall one of my favorite restaurants on the Outer Banks and worth visiting, even if you just want a beer and view of the Currituck sound. read more

We took the whole family (12) for the last meal on our spring break vacation. The view of the sunset was amazing and worth the trip. The service both at the bar and our waiter were very attentive, friendly, and on point. Everyone enjoyed their meals - I had oysters on a half-shell with the Cajun Redfish for my entree, my wife had the oyster Rockefeller with the salmon for her entree. Our grandkids all had the barbecue ribs which were extraordinary for a seafood place. This was a great ending to a great trip! read more

What a fun restaurant! The restaurant boasts seating both inside and out (with umbrellas and shade). In the evening there are fun patio lights! We went around lunch on Saturday (May 31st) and easily got a table. That may not be the case in late June/July/August. My husband and I ordered fun cocktails and we got to keep the souvenir cups. These aren't just plastic cups with their logo. They're cool ceramic glasses and my husband's was made out of a coconut! For our appetizer we ordered the crab dip which was pretty good. My husband ordered the blackened Mahi which he thought was good (his exact words). I ordered a bowl of sherry lobster soup which was divine. It came with a bunch of crackers. I couldn't finish the soup as everything was super filling. I would definitely go back to this restaurant for lunch! read more

Amazing transformation. We have been here numerous times over the last 10 years and have been underwhelmed and dissatisfied in the food and service. However, we just went and the management has changed. The food was delicious, the best we've had in the OBX and that's saying something. We reluctantly went with our large group even warning them about our mediocre past experiences and we were pleasantly proved wrong. They still have the drink menu with fun souvenir cups but the menu has changed and the service has improved! I would definitely recommend giving them another chance and I'm glad we did. read more

Recently renovated and beautiful setting overlooking the Currituck Sound. There is a reason it is called the Subset Grille, because it has one of the most beautiful views of the sunset in Duck. The food was fresh and tasty, BUT the appetizers (cheese curds, buffalo chicken shrimp dip, calamari fries) and drinks are worth writing home about. Did I mention the drinks?!?! The menu declares "world famous cocktails" and we will not disagree. With a large group we partook in many of the offerings: Sunset's Famous Titanic, Tsunami, Painkiller and King King's Revenge. Yum! Just make sure you eat something, because these drinks are so good and will sneak up on you. read more

Sunset Grille & Raw Bar - Tuna Aloha Bowl - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

This is a review of the outdoor area only. We had a great time, a large group of 12. It's always nice to sit outside, by the water with friends, and have some food/drink. The service we had was outstanding. Our waitress was fantastic, very attentive. Couldn't ask for better service. The lobster fries were fantastic and the rest of the food was good too. Not great, but good. SO... if you want to sit outside, enjoy the nice weather, sit by the water, just relax and have a nice time with family and/or friends, and have excellent service, I would say this is a great place to go. If you're looking for 5 star dining, perhaps this isn't the place for you. But our group had a great time, they were very accommodating, and we would go back next time we are there. read more

Stopped here for dinner with good friends and were immediately greeted by very friendly staff and the Manager, Rohan. Being a Sunday in off season, it wasn't crowded but we had great service, and delicious food. I had the Mediterranean Salmon which was delicious and diet friendly, a friend had the tuna poke bowl which she raved about and ended up sharing some key lime pie. Rohan came by and we had a lovely conversation which made the evening have a special personal touch. And the view is spectacular at sunset. read more

Service was pleasant and fairly prompt. Drinks were pretty good. The sunset was great and I think that's what you are paying for. The food overall was nothing extraordinary. One diner devoured the crab legs however. The clam chowder was also good. My tuna poke was average, my wife was unimpressed by the lobster and shrimp agnoletti. Two unadventurous eaters had Mac n cheese and chicken fingers which they liked. read more

The good: the coconut shrimp, she crab soup (10/10), ribs, painkiller, ceasar salad and prime rib. The not bad but wouldn't recommend: the crabby fries and margaritas. This restaurant was chaotic. The drinks were fun and the souvenir cups were pretty cool, if they had them. The view from our table was perfect during sunset. read more
