Very busy but our food arrived fast and hot. I had the fish and chips which was FRESH flounder filets very lightly breaded served with fries and homemade Cole slaw. Hubby had mixed grill of FRESH yellow fin tuna, shrimp, and scallops in a light butter lemon sauce with mixed veggies. He opted for double veggies and no starch. All was prepared to perfection. Our waitress was attentive and efficient and friendly. We would come back.

After settling into our house we needed food! We walked to the tavern and placed a to-go order at the bar for pizzas. The staff was friendly and able to accommodate getting us mozzarella sticks for the kids too. Later in the week we return to get pizzas again.

Wife had scallops. For the same amount can get them $3 cheaper elsewhere. my was ok nothing special. Had to try try the crab pretzel, best item for the day.Ate on the deck for a little view of the ocean. be prepared for dogs. Had one one each side seated after us. Luckily they were well behaved. Would of liked to be warned ahead , we were in a dog zone. ShogunMarine, I have to first wonder how you made it all the way to the Tiki Deck without seeing any of the numerous signs that say "Pets are Welcome". Had you asked to sit where we don't allow dogs we have a lovely covered deck with the same views of Historic Nags Head and with views of Jockey's Ridge State Park that we don't allow dogs on if this was such a problem. I will say that you are literally the first person to complain about this. As for the Scallops, I happen to know that our pricing is Market Price. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the crab pretzel!

This is a fun little place, colorfully decorated with beach themed paintings on the walls, hundreds of old license plates on the low ceiling beams, and a fish tank serving as partial wall divider with at least one large gold fish. The front window side has a few booth seats, beyond that a long wrap around bar counter on one side, and half dozen wooden tables on the other. There is also a larger less busily decorated back dining room but didn't seem to be open this evening. Service a bit of a slow start, might be just opened for the evening, since once they took our orders food came super quickly. We had burger and fish tacos. Both excellent - although the tacos had the most plain tortilla, the contents were just about the best, with an abundance of fish chunks, more substantial than any other fish tacos I'd ever had. And both the burger and fish were very spicy - I read some reviews that complained about the excessive cumin used, but since I like cumin I thought it was tasty. My partner however did feel the burger was over seasoned, as he generally prefers minimally seasoned patties - so I guess you gotta love spicy food to love this place. But if you do, definitely check this place out.

Came here for dinner on our first evening in OBX - chose this place as it's convenient, almost right across the highway from our hotel. Restaurant is quite large, with colorful ocean themed paintings, well spaced tables, several dining sections with partial dividers, and bar counter in a separate room. Many tables by the windows, no doubt provide good views during the day. On a Sunday night it was about half full around 6 pm. We had mixed seafood and salad with grilled shrimps, both delicious - the shrimp add-on at $5 was the most reasonable and perfect for a light dinner. The comp hush puppies were really yummy. For dessert had the pecan pie, which regrettably was not as good - very lacking on the pecans, mostly bland filling and for what it was a bit pricey at $8. Overall a good restaurant but based on the pecan pie I wouldn't skip the desserts.

Last week was our third return visit since finding this restaurant and its Shrimp and Grits! Continues to NOT disappoint!Rebecca, a North Carolina/Georgia girl (my license plate states "Grits" on it - Girl Raised in the South) who is "marooned" in Ohio!Our sympathies to the Georgia girl stuck in Ohio. Grits are Southern for sure, and when you add a really great sauce, and some shrimp.........well, the Ohio blues fade away. Glad you like us and our shrimp and grits. Cheers and bon appetit!!

We tried Avenue for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. The service was impeccable (too bad our waiter was returning to Appalachian State). The salads were super delicious. I loved the shala shala. The onion rings were crunchy with a yummy sauce. I had the crabcakes and they were tasty. All around great restaurant.
