Off the beaten path, Dockside Grille is a hidden hangout on Colington Road that locals love and tourists are quickly discovering.

It’s a friendly, laid-back sort of place where you can enjoy a delicious casual meal and also relax with drinks on the creek side deck - or have a game of pool, a smoke and a cool beer on their screened gazebo.

Best known for its fresh local-caught seafood and on-site smoked BBQ with Dockside‘s special sauce recipe, the restaurant’s other favorite dishes include crabcakes, shrimp & grits and prime rib. Sides like baked beans, slaw and potato salad are homemade, and among popular appetizers are crab dip, jalapeno poppers and onion straws.

Open year round, Dockside is one of the few venues on the Outer Banks hosting live acoustic music throughout the year and nightly during the season. Other nights you can watch NFL Football on eight TVs, or try your luck at the casino games.

It’s also a great place for your favorite weekend breakfast of omelets, eggs or wraps with choice of meat. Or you can grab a stuffed biscuit and coffee to go.

Hours and entertainment days vary off-season, so call for details during fall and winter. You’ll find Dockside Grille  just a few miles off the Bypass on the left, a short distance from Colington Café.

American Pie

American Pie

Discover the best homemade ice cream and authentic made-from-scratch New York Style pizza the Outer Banks has to offer at American Pie in Kill Devil Hills. An Outer Banks favorite for lunch, dinner or a delicious scoop of scrumptious ice cream after a day at the beach.

 

It was 1978 when Eddie and Lou Miller first opened Miller’s Seafood and Steakhouse. As a teenager, their son Brian spent his summers working in the restaurant, getting familiar with the family business. After college, Brian and his wife Beth came back to Kill Devil Hills and began working together at Miller’s. Brian and Beth officially purchased the restaurant from Eddie and Lou in 2007. A few years later they opened American Pie together, and both restaurants now carry on the Miller family tradition of quality, excellence and hospitality.

 

“I learned everything about the restaurant business from my parents,” Miller says. “They ran the business together for all those years, and now my wife and I are doing the same. “Throughout the summer, we’re feeding around 2,000 people a day in our two restaurants. It’s a challenge we embrace every season, and we get a lot of fulfillment from making it all work.”

 

The Millers focus on two main specialties: high quality foods and unparalleled service. Seafood at Miller’s is fresh and locally caught, and they serve high-quality Angus beef, fresh pastas and homemade desserts. At American Pie, guests enjoy hand-tossed pizzas and homemade ice cream.

 

“We put a lot of time and effort into ensuring the products we bring in are top-notch,” Miller says. “Our customers know that when they visit our restaurants, they’ll be getting the quality and consistency they’ve come to know and love.”
