Quarterdeck Restaurant

The best food on Hatteras Island. The seafood was perfectly prepared and the best hushpuppies ever. They have perfected handling of short staffing. Ordering at the register allows the lone server the ability to get food out as fast as it's prepared. The cashier/bartender was wearing many hats and helping with drink refills. I highly recommend, it is worth any wait.

I don't know if this review is appropriate but I have to leave it anyway. For many years I vacationed in Frisco North Carolina. I would bring my parents ,God rest their souls ,children and first wife yes that has changed haha. I am planning another trip, with the love of my life to Frisco. We never did like the carnival atmosphere and I still don't. I love the natural beauty of the outer banks. We didn't eat out a lot we bought fresh seafood off the dock and cooked it. And we would always go at least catch some speckled trout with Rick Scarborough, an island native and lifelong fisherman.I hope Rick is still around and still fishing. This place used to be ran by two brothers and they inherited it from their parents I believe. They were very friendly very entertaining one of them would always do magic tricks for my children which now are in their 30s. I hope they are still around and doing well. This is the only place that we would go out and eat at. I've never had anything less than a superb meal here. I mean these guys grew up catching preparing cooking and eating seafood they knew what they were doing! They had a great Hatteras style clam chowder and they had a oyster stew that was to die for lunch. The one dish that sticks out in my mind and I have been fantasizing about this for years, is this flounder stuffed with crab imperial I have traveled and lived all over the world I have never had anything like it. I hope this review finds this family well I hope to see them soon I am 57 years old and really not in good health I don't know how much longer I'll be around. I hope long enough to make it back to Frisco and to eat at The quarterdeck restaurant peace be with everyone.

We were starving after a long day of sightseeing and skipping lunch. This restaurant was one of the few still open this time of year, so I’m sure they were booked up for later, but they provided a table for us. Wonderful friendly server, (who was covering the entire dining room) and absolutely delicious food. We did the seafood combo. Oysters, shrimp and fresh flounder ( not pictured). For a starter we had the crab stuffed mushrooms- SO good. Their hush puppies are also wonderful. And bonus- very good coffee! We’d definitely go back.

A wonderful dinning experience, my wife loved the seafood platter and my southern fried chicken & slaw was as good as my grandma's!! the key lime and pecan pies were the best we've ever had!! Our server Trafton was amazing, good job, we will dine there again
