    Crab cake dinner
    Tyrone T.

    We spent a winter staycay in Kitty Hawk. It was cold has an ice trolls feet! We decided at the last minute to get a bite to eat. I searched "best casual dining close to me" and this place was the first thing that came up, so off we go! The place was small and quaint. It was Christmas time so everyone was dressed in Christmas gear! It was packed too! I see why because the food was great and the service was even greater! I had the crab cakes and they were excellent! I wanted to get that key lime pie but I'm already fat so I let it go. Highly recommend

    Excellent food. Excellent service. Cannot believe that in the 20 plus years coming to Corolla this was my first time eating here!

    Steak burger
    Racquel T.

    We ate here for lunch. When we arrived, there was a sign on the door that said the hostess and to check in for your meal is on the side entrance. So you do have to walk around the side to tell them how many is in your party. The place does not have a waiting area so highly recommend just sending one of your party in to put in the reservation and waiting for the table to be ready. Our server was Taylor. Taylor was standing on business with one of my meals didn't have tomato, bacon jam, and she was on top of it. Awesome person. For the appetizer, we order cheesesteak egg rolls, and it had a red tomato basil dipping sauce on the side very delicious killed whole dish before our main meal came out. me, I had the steak burger very good flavor. They forgot the tomato bacon jam that was supposed to be on it. But even without it, it was such a good flavor profile. our waiter, Taylor got us an a dipping side of the tomato bacon jam so everything was fine. For our next meal, we had the fried shrimp with a side of fries and tartar sauce. Very good crisp taste on it. Good crunch Tartar sauce was absolutely delicious. Side of coleslaw came with the dish. Overall, the restaurant ambience was a bit tight, but that is why they have your party. Wait outside. The waitress was amazing. Made the experience very nice and smooth. And the food was five out of five. Would recommend. Highly.

    Absolutely worth the wait! Kill Devil Grill is a must-visit spot when you're in the Outer Banks. The food is consistently excellent--fresh, flavorful, and served with attention to detail that stands out from typical beach fare. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the retro diner vibe adds to the charm. From the blackened flatiron steak to the daily specials and their famous key lime pie, everything is done right. Just a heads-up for weekend diners: if you're coming on a Saturday during peak season, plan ahead. It's not uncommon for the wait to be over an hour--but trust me, it's worth every minute. Most people wait in their cars (text alerts), so bring a good playlist, crack the windows, and settle in for a bit. You'll be glad you stayed.

    Caesar salad

    A little pricey but the food is pretty good here, we came one evening at it was packed! It appears as a little trailer and I passed by it more than once before realizing what it was. We stopped in and the server was nice, and gave good recommendations, since we're from out of state. We wanted to return on our last day in town, but when we phoned to ask about a promotional offer we heard about, the manager was very short and said "we don't do this" and hung up. Left a bad taste for a previously good experience. Food for thought: good service is just as important as good food.

    Chicken Wings
    Sahib G.

    Kill Devil Grill is one of my favorite spots to eat in the Outerbanks. This place has been here a while now and is very popular with the locals. My favorite are their Chicken Wings. The wings are smoked and grilled then tossed in their signature buffalo sauce. I definitely recommend getting the wings here. The grilled Salmon salad is also one of my favorites. The Citrus Basil salad is so flavorful and really compliments the grilled salmon. If you are in OBX, then definitely check out Kill Devil Grill!

    Shrimp pasta
    LaTanya T.

    The food was amazing. The scallops dinner special was flavorful. The tomato base sauce was sweet with a little spicy aftertaste. The restaurant is smaller but it makes for a cozy atmosphere to connect with each other. We loved the details in the Christmas lights. The staff were attentive and friendly. Our little ones enjoyed writing their letters to Santa.

    Ribeye

    Truly best spot in OBX. The food was so good. My wife and split the sampler and we LOVED the wings and the Philly rolls. Wings def are in my top 5 of all time. I got the ribeye and it was great. My wife got the crab cakes and also was a huge fan. The service was truly amazing, our waitress was awesome. The manager stopped by our table and greeted us. The vibes where not what I was expecting at all though. It was a diner car vibe and we absolutely loved it. We tried food all over OBX this week and I say without a doubt this is a must have. Holy

    PBR Steamed Shrimp

    This little restaurant is AMAZING... don't be fooled by its exterior... This little restaurant is probably the best on the entire Outer Banks and I have been to almost all the restaurants around here. The staff is amazing and friendly. They treat you like they've known you all their life. Jack and Jen are the two superstars that never let us want for anything.. the worst thing about the evening was the we had to waddle home full and extremely satisfied. This will not be my last trip to this secret in Kill Devil's.

    Great food, very organized curbside pickup. They have some outside seating, too though we didn't take advantage of that. Recommend!

    We came here on our anniversary! Absolutely amazing food!!! Amazing service. Amazing vibes all…read morearound. Our waitress Michelle was the most helpful and thoughtful person we have had on our trip so far. We will be coming back here every time we come. Ps. Get the crab cakes Also ps. If you don't like crab get the pasta.

    This was not our first visit to Trio but was the most disappointing. My friend and I ordered the…read moresame thing, the soup of the day , fish stew, and Quinoa salad with greens, tomatoes and mozzarella balls. The soup was $9 a cup and the bowl$19! Neither one was worth the money. Everything is expensive anymore when you eat out, I don't mind paying if the food is good. The soup had no signs of fish or seafood in either serving. It tasted like a spicy vegetable soup. It was good but no fish and not worth $9. The Quinoa bowl was average, tomatoes were spongy and tasteless and 3-4 pearl mozzarella balls. How is that $19? Very disappointing. I gave 1 star for our wine and our waitress Emily did an awesome job. She was prompt and took care of all the tables in the dining room. She did a fantastic job ensuring we had everything we needed. It wasn't her fault for the food. We are both locals and wanted a girl lunch, and appreciate the challenges restaurants face. Trio is always busy So not sure why today's food was so poor. I still bought wine at the store, again great shop.
