Restaurants near Nags Head Woods Ecological Preserve

We have lived in Duck for over 4 years and just haven’t had a chance to make it to Aqua. I know, crazy! We just have our favorites and automatically gravitate to them. However, it was my wife’s birthday and she wanted to try something new so Aqua it was! We went early to avoid the crowds, but with the weather, it was pretty empty anyway. For starters, the bread was excellent! The butter was soft and easily spreadable! Don’t you hate that chilled butter that breaks the bread in pieces?! Anyway, I ordered the Filet and my wife ordered the Roasted Chicken. My Filet was excellent! Perfectly cooked inside and out! It was so delicious I almost cried! Yea, it was that good! I Loved the cubed potatoes as well! The broccolini was awful! Don’t eat that! Well, unless you like green vegetables! My wife enjoyed her meal as well and the chicken was also cooked to perfection. She liked the broccolini so I gave her mine! ;) The service was also amazing. Brian was our waiter and he helped with our selections and he was very friendly. Hopefully, we get him next time! Honestly, we’ve been missing out! Especially since it’s so close to home! Now, the prices are high, but not unreasonable. We couldn’t afford to go there all the time but definitely for special occasions and when guests come to visit! Anyway, I highly recommend! *****

Fat Tuesday with amazing food, a fabulous band and very nice employees. We loved every minute!

My favorite on the beach. Great ambience, drinks, flavors, and people, alike.

Lots of nice menu options. Enjoyed the roasted garlic bisque. Focaccia was equally lovely. Unique bourbon selections (they have Blanton’s)!

We enjoyed our meal. The service was great. A bit pricey, though.
