Steamers

Our experience last year was not great but we wanted to try is again. It was far and away so much better. We sat inside and the interior was more inviting and didn't have the outside distractions from our last visit. We were able to be seated quickly and were met by an awesome server Reece. She went over all the options for the specials and I was very happy to learn I could get raw oysters with the Yellowfin and Oysters.My wife and I got the same item except her oysters were fried. She loved them. My raw oysters were shucked well with not sand or shell pieces. The oysters were delicious and came with different options to dip. The oysters were better in their own. My tuna was cooked to the perfect medium rare I ordered. It was accompanied by a mustard sauce that complimented the tuna well. The sides were good but the star was the tuna and oysters. I was happy to learn the oysters came for the Chesapeake and as a Marylander it was great.Steamers is a great place for seafood and I'm looking forward to coming back next year year.

Margaritas were outstanding! Oysters were fresh and delicious! The mussels were good, a little bland, and nothing special.Service was good and it's a nice place for a date night.

I returned for another meal and dined inside this time, where the space was open and airy.I tried one of the specials being offered on the night I attended which was blackened halibut with fingerling potatoes, broccolini, and a curry sauce. The dish was expertly crafted, with the fish cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. The curry sauce complemented the flavors of the halibut, enhancing the overall experience. I also sampled another special which was tilefish with bok choy and coconut sticky rice. While it was well-prepared, the dish had a pronounced teriyaki flavor that was not to my taste. Nevertheless, all the components of the plate worked well together.

Went here for dinner on a rainy night in the off season. Amazing first class experience! The best place for seafood dinner on the Outer Banks by far. Excellent service. Amazing food with almost everything seasoned just perfect with the exception of the Spanish rice which was surprisingly bland. Ambiance is that of an upscale restaurant. Prices were reasonable for what you are getting. Highly recommended.

Good was delicious and portions plentiful. Crystal is a lovely waitress and knew all about the menu.It is kind of noisy so if you are looking for a quiet intimate place, this isn't it. Also, if you are charging so much for the food, should you really be charging customers a credit card processing fee? We spent $127 + tip and have to pay extra to charge it.

We had an excellent meal here last night. Our server was prompt and courteous and always made sure we had everything we needed. I ordered the Fish n Chips. The fries were great, but the fish was even better. It was light, flaky, and cooked perfectly. Everyone loved what they ordered. We sat upstairs and had a table in front of a window. An excellent meal and I'm so glad we took the time to come here!

Myself and two friends had the most amazing experience, dinner, and drinks together at Steamers in Kitty Hawk. From the ownership to every sever & bartender, we had the most perfect evening. Drinks were creative & strong. Apps and entrees were delish. Every time I go to OBX I will be stopping in to see my friends at Steamers! Congrats on 30 years of success!

Excellent! Came here so hungry and left full and satisfied. I had the market special, which was rockfish with fingerling potatoes in a light curry sauce and a side of the rice and beans. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce it came in was super yummy. The rice and beans were awesome and even had a side of salsa and sautéed veggies. I loved that the menu had atypical menu items for the area like black bean soup, rice and beans, and Spanish rice to name a few. I also tried the hush puppies which were excellent, and a bite of the salmon. The service couldn't have been nicer and it looked like they had beautiful outdoor seating as well. It felt like an upscale restaurant minus the pretense. Highly recommend!

Back to a favorite in the OBX. To be honest, this is a go to place anytime we are in the Outer Banks. Conveniently located in Southern Shores with ample parking and great service and food. Did I mention great service? Well two years ago, I reviewed Steamers and wrote about a great dining experience. It was that trip that keeps us coming back. We sit down and are greeted by the friendliest waitress we encountered during this vacation week (Sept 29, 2023). She offered great suggestions and was very attentive to our group even though she was covering multiple tables and large parties. The key was she communicated extremely well and is the difference maker in our dining experience. To our surprise, we all start realizing that our waitress (Marina T.) was the same impressive waitress we had two years ago! So not only does Steamers employ great staff, but they retain them! This is good business and an awesome place to eat on OBX!

I am so pleased to be visiting Steamers again. I come perhaps 3 times per year. The food is terrific and the service is outstanding! I'm looking to see what specials are on the menu today.
