We came in the off season so there wasn't a wait, but we actually tried to come last summer and couldn't get in because there was a 2 hour wait, so if you're visiting in summer you may want to arrive early to get on the list and then explore downtown Manteo while you wait!

I was exploring the downtown of Manteo and stopped in for a quick lunch. The food was tasty and…read moreservice was awesome, definitly a place to check out. Food: I got the fish sandwich. Not your traditional hoagie style roll, the Lost Colony version is served on grilled bread (even has the grill char lines). The fish is white fish, battered and fried, served with the usual accoutrements. The real show on this sandwich is the house made tartar sauce! It was so good I even used it to dip my fries in. Atmosphere: I sat at the bar due to it being busy and a decent wait for a table. Madison was working the bar and killing it! the decor is a nod to Roanoke Islands roots with a British pub vibe. The menu is a mix of old world and new. Public parking nearby is available.

The menu is amazing and the staff friendly, professional and knowledgeable!…read more Located in the quaint town of Manteo on the water front.

They didn't ask how we wanted it cooked so we figured that well done was just a default. The potato wedges that came with it have a really good seasoning as well.

Overall, solid place for dinner.

I had the grilled tuna and it was cooked perfectly. The only issue was with the service. Hear me out, it wasn't bad service. In fact the young man that took care of us worked his butt off. He just needed someone else in there with him as he had way too much going on at once. He did good, it just definitely took a bit longer...but he clearly did all he could do. Will return here next year. And love that they are open on Mondays!

Let's start with the positives:…read more Love that it's in Manteo and the place has a nice vibe to it. Would've like to try the Weeping Radish Beers but kids were with me so I passed. The Pretzel was good, no doubt about that. All of the breads were very fresh. Unfortunately, everything got worse after the appetizer pretzel at our table. The hot honey on the New Yorker Down South functioned more like a sticky grease. But if not for the honey, I don't think I would've tasted anything at all. The service wasn't good either. Our waitress appeared to be getting frustrated just by those at our table asking questions. The only time she lit up was when she bragged about the two smash burger ideas she came up with that made the menu. She wasn't terrible, but maybe I'm just being nice considering I felt us being there was an inconvenience to her. When someone at our table asked to add lettuce and tomato to their burger, she replied that this isn't a build your own burger place and that she works at the Lost Colony where you can do that...but not here. It was odd. My family has gluten allergies which sucks...but when we asked if any desserts were gluten free she said the tart was the only one she was aware of. It might have been, but saying "aware of" led me to believe there could possibly be others but she didn't know and wasn't asking. Ok, I convinced myself, the service was bad. In fact, the place was practically empty and they stuck all 7 of us in a booth. My daughter who is extremely gluten sensitive has to cut off a piece of her pizza because the waitress bumped it against mine when she put it on the table. In her defense, we had no room for it. When the waitress brought back my youngest daughters Smash Burger (because they didn't put cheese or mayo on it) she could only fit half the plate on the table. So my 8 year old ate off a plate with half the plate dangling off the side...bizarre. I'm giving 2 stars because I believe the meal could've been better. Living in a family with gluten allergies and having none...I get how it can be frustrating (apologies to those gluten free...I get that it's way more frustrating for you). I'd probably stick with a pretzel, order a standard smash burger & do the beer sampler. If you're driving over 15 minutes to get here, probably safest to try somewhere else.

We visited Firetender for the first time about 3 weeks ago...I'd say a solid 3 stars with…read morepotential. A very nice outside area for when its warmer, and inside feels very comfortable, slightly upscale. Overall, very nice and could easily become a all season hang out. Service was...well, lets say a work in progress. When asked about beers on draft, the server did not know (and did not have a list). Also, one of our orders was forgotten (more on that below). That said, service was friendly, quickly corrected the mistake. We started with the cheese curds; served hot they were good but...need something, some kind of kick/spice. The main event, the pizza's. We ordered two, one with pepperoni and mushroom and one plain. The pepperoni and mushroom was overall good, but not great. It was warm not hot, and really could have used a bit more time in the oven to get that nice undercarriage you want in a pizza - especially a stone oven pizza. The plain pizza, the server forgot to put that order in. By comparison to the first one, when it did arrive it was hot, much better undercarriage, etc. As I started with, a solid 3 with potential if they correct the service gaffs. To be fair, since our visit they (FIretender) have announced several service changes such as a new manager to there is hope it can live up to the promise.

This place has an incredible vibe and even better view of the water. It was very busy and you could tell it is loved by both tourists and locals. Despite how busy they were, the staff were very friendly and attentive. We got an order of coconut shrimp, fish tacos, shrimp basket (with sweet potato fries), and fish basket (with sweet potato fries). It was all delicious!!! Firstly, they do not skimp on portion size. The fish and shrimp were all fresh and full of flavor. The coconut shrimp was the best I've had, and I love that they have sweet potato fries as an option. The tartar sauce and remoulade were very flavorful, and complimented the seafood perfectly. I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a place to eat in Nags Head!

First off, google said the pier house restaurant was open and good for kids, but as it turns out,…read moreit's only open for breakfast. We were very confused. We weren't sure if kids were allowed at captain andys but the host said it was fine. The male host was the nicest person there and he should've been the one running the place because our waitress wasn't good at her job at all. The calamari was just ok but not very tender. It was very windy in the restaurant so stuff was blowing everywhere. We had two grilled cheeses, fries, a bbq sandwich and a shrimp po boy and it took over an hour to get our food. Service was very slow, it was not a warm or friendly environment. They're more dedicated to getting people drunk. A guy near our table was loudly talking on the phone and using profanity. The restaurants here can be hit or miss.
