    The best pizza on the beach without a doubt. Crisp and no flop under its own weight. Give them a try.

    White Pizza with bald black olives and red onion
    Aubrey F.

    Love this spot! Came here years ago on vacation and it was just as good several years later! We ordered for pickup. We got one large pizza with half pepperoni and half sausage. We got another large white pizza with bald black olives and red onion. Amazing! Very flavorful and perfect amount of toppings. So good! Would definitely recommend and come back!

    Vinny's Pizza Joint is located in Kitty Hawk at the Dune Shops at Milepost 4.5. My hotel recommended this place and said they had the best pizza on the island. They offer take out and they do deliver. Customer service was friendly. There are photos on the walls inside. I ordered the Big Island pizza with ham and pineapple; some garlic bread; and cinna sticks. The garlic bread was gone before I remembered to get some photos. The pizza was really good quality and delicious. The amount of toppings were generous. The cinna sticks were too sweet for me though so wouldn't order that again. I wish the garlic bread was cut into more pieces too. But this will be on the top of my list for pizza next time I am in the area!

    17" Sausage, Mushroom and Olive
    Jon T.

    We continue to look for great pizza on the Outer Banks and while we have not really, we found Vinny's to be as good as any and better than most. Vinny's opened in the location where Nag's Head Pizza was briefly. We still have not tried Nags Head because of the distance from where we stay while here. We ordered our usual in 17" size with Italian sausage, olives and mushrooms. The 17" was very generous in size. Some places have sauce that is too sweet but Vinny's was not that way and we liked that. We liked the New York Style crust which was not excessive with toppings all the way to the edge with a modest, delicious chewy rim. To improve the pizza we would like to see a few herbs sprinkled on. The sausage is sliced from link rather than bulk, which we prefer. We like some fennel in Italian sausage and we could not detect any here. It was slightly disappointing that the mushrooms were canned. I am going with four stars which is rounding up for the effort. We have been patronizing Max's since their new ownership and also liked Village in Nags Head. Vinny's gets a slight nod and the location happens to be great for us.

    The Supremo Originale Pizza

    Vinny's Pizza Joint was delicious for the area! We were tired from our drive to OBX and ordered pizza/ subs for dinner. Vinny's made it easy for us to order over the phone! They were super busy on a Saturday night. We could hear the commotions of how busy this joint was that we were glad to get our orders in. It was about a 40 minute wait for our pizzas to be ready for carry out. Staff on the phone were quick and friendly! We ordered 3 different large pizzas and 2 different subs. Pizzas: I would not say that this is a traditional New York style pizza however, it's good for the OBX area. The crust is crispy and chewy. The large pies are big enough to feed a group of people. We had 7 adults, 1 kid and had 6 slices left over for the next day! Treehugger- this pizza was surprisingly delicious! It had basil pesto, onion, spinach, mushroom, and tomatoes. It's a great vegetarian option that has a lot of flavor. Supremo Originale- this pizza is your typical deluxe pizza that you will see at a pizza shop. It had pepperoni, sausage, mushroom, green peppers, and onions. Everything was cooked perfectly! The Big Island- this is a Hawaiian Pizza! I felt like this pizza was a little over cooked compared to the other pies, but still good to eat. The cheese was a little burnt/stiff that maybe there oven was too hot for this pie?? Subs: We loved the bread that was used for these subs. They were thick and crispy without being soggy on the inside. Meatball Sub: this sub tasted like a regular meatball sub with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese. Glad that there was enough marinara sauce to coat the sandwich and dip into with each bite. Italian Sub: this sub also was standard with ham, salami, and pepperoni. I wish there was more meat stacked into the sub to make it hearty. This was also missing the oil and vinegar combo with Italian seasoning to make this more flavorful. The veggies complimented the sub to give it a balance with the meats. We also ordered Caesar and Greek salads. They were good portions for 1-2 people per order. Overall, my carry out experience was amazing for the Saturday night rush and big order. I didn't see any wings on the menu and my family was a little bummed. I would come back to Vinny's for pizza again!

It has always been good, and we definitely won't let this deter us from returning. Ms T had her usual Shrimp basket lunch. The issue was that the shrimp were not cooked through. They were still translucent. We totally understand not wanting to overcook shrimp, but these were not quite done. On the bright side she commented on how good the slaw was. I have been on a kick to try barbecue at restaurants that are not barbecue joints per se, to see if I can find some hidden gems. For example, both Sam & Omie's and Wanchese Marina serve a good barbecue sandwich. Black Pelican, at least on this day, does not. I must say, the serving was huge. This was more than enough for two meals for me. The barbecue was dry and not well flavored. The texture and flavor was more like dried out beef that has been over-roasted. This is not something I would order again here. All that being said, I am leaving the rating for Black Pelican as it is because we have always had good meals here. I accept that it can't be 100% perfect every time and sooner or later we will run into something that is less than stellar. We will continue to return. I just know this not where I will have barbecue and we are sure the shrimp thing was just a one timer.

I went in on a VERY BUSY day and received top notch service right from the get go! The hostess was super polite and respectful despite being obviously extremely busy, we were asking about take out as we are local and sometimes just wanna eat at the house. She said no problem and took our order and said 10-15 minutes. No problem we took a seat at the bar and ordered a couple drinks, the bartender was doing an outstanding job, every single seat was full and he was the only bartender as they were understaffed yet he was doing a phenomenal job getting everyone served in a timely manner can't ask for more from your server.. food was out in just about 10 minutes and we were off.. got home and the order was perfect and delicious. We went out of the way to leave a nice tip because they most certainly deserved it, I felt like I couldn't have tipped enough that particular day as the entire staff up to and including the bar back were just making it happen!! Will definitely be back phenomenal place both service wise and value and taste..!

First night- take out. Food was spectacular. I cannot believe how well the seafood lasagna packaged and tasted even after getting it home. Would do that again. The lady at the front wasn't necessarily the warmest person I've ever met. But she did make an effort as we stood there longer to help out. Second night- sit down on the roof. It was the only spot they allowed dogs, which was fine. We were the only people up there which was odd. Our waiter was an absolute champ going up and down those stairs all day. Deserved a large tip. The food was solid but holy smokes were the drinks bad. Like some of the worst mixed drinks I've ever had. If I went again I'd stick to the food. Or just a simple beer.

My friend went to the bar, got two drinks, and simply walked them five feet back over to me. When my friend later went back to the bar to grab napkins and straws, the blonde bartender started berating her and screaming, "I TOLD YOU NOT TO DO THAT!" She even grabbed my friend by the wrist to get her point across. Completely unacceptable. I went over calmly to try to smooth things over and asked her to clarify the rule. Instead, she erupted in my face and put her hand in my face. We were genuinely trying to understand because we were visiting and had never heard of this "2 drink rule." There was absolutely no reason for this level of hostility. Rules can be explained. Customers can be corrected. You do not scream in someone's face or put your hands on them. When we left, I told the guy at the front who collects money and stamps hands what had happened. His response was basically, "Oh yeah, the girl (bartender)? Yeah, sorry." Apparently, this behavior wasn't exactly a surprise. A simple explanation would have been enough. Instead, this bartender completely ruined the vibe and made us feel incredibly unwelcome. Disgusting, hostile, and profoundly unprofessional behavior.
