Ocean Boulevard Bistro & Martini Bar - Experience Sophistication and Delicious Cuisine in Kitty Hawk, NC

The service was exceptional. They allowed us to come in over an hour early. Upon greeting us they took our coats and wished us a happy anniversary since I noted that when making our reservation. The server was so sweet and gave great recommendations. I had the roasted chicken and my husband had lamb but before that we had two appetizers... mushroom soup and fried green tomatoes ... WOW! Yum. Then we shared a goat cheese salad that was incredible as well. The entres were so good!!! All the plating was beautiful. Atmosphere sophisticated and warm. Even though we were full we had the berry bread pudding with home made homemade ice cream ... again, incredible. We can't wait to bring some friends to come back. Thank you for a beautiful way to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary.

Not yet today by time near dinner time going there with my couples or worker for easy etc or there then would ppost this when done!!

Great food in a great atmosphere. Highly trained and professional waitstaff. This is a gem.

Being from Hawaii we didn't order any seafood. We started with Gibson Martinis. That's a Gin martini with onions, our favorite. Then had Green Fried Tomatoes! So yummy! I had the Tenderloin and my hubby had the NY strip steak. Cooked to perfection with fresh vegetables and rosemary potatoes. Absolutely perfect. Wonderful meal on the OBX!

My wife and I went yesterday. The food was excellent. The service was top notch . The ambiance is classy. We loved the entire experience and the macadamia dessert was amazing .

Dined here this evening for Mother's Day. We arrived shortly after they opened and were greeted and seated right away by very friendly staff. We ordered an olive tray, soup, salad, appetizer, Walleye and NY strip, along with wine and a Bloody Mary. Our server Oksana was absolutely perfect in every way. Our items came out perfectly timed and in order. She was very pleasant and informative. The food was amazing. Great presentation and flavor. We will definitely return and we highly recommend you give it a try. We had a great view also from our table upstairs overlooking the ocean.

Visiting for the weekend and decided to dine here tonight. Aviator cocktail - boozy and flavorful Fried green tomatoes - Delicious! The blue cheese crumbles and Goddess dressing added a very nice flavor contrast. Gobbled it up Baked chicken and kale - lukewarm but really tender. Mac and cheese - wowsers! Very flavorful. I'm not sure if blue cheese and parmesan was included in the sauce but it definitely tasted like it. The portion was gigantic - much more than I had anticipated. The bar is beautiful, has a classic tavern feel. There was a wait just to sir at the bar, so I'd recommend arriving early or making reservations.

It has been a few years since I've been to the Outer Banks so when I read about this place obviously I had to try it. When we walked in we had reservations (make sure you do that) the lady who greeted us was less than delightful but that's whatever. Our server was great! Everything from the drinks to the desserts were delicious. I'm pretty sure you can order anything and it will be good. We sat right in front of the kitchen so we got to watch the meals being prepared and let me tell you, these people are professionals. Everything is fresh and made to order. I don't even think there's a microwave in that place. Highly recommend!!

There are so many great places to eat between Kitty Hawk and Nags Head and a little beyond, that it has taken us years to finally get around to trying Ocean Boulevard. Now I want to take guests. We went for Ms T's birthday with son AT and SD. This was a Sunday evening and we had a great meal. If you are looking for a little more upscale dining and an alternate to the always busy Kill Devil Grill and Colington Café, this is highly recommended. You will add it to your list. We had reservations, but being well off-season it was not crowded. I think on this night you could have walked in and a table, but I would not recommend it. Ocean Boulevard is not a large place. It is very nice and the service was excellent. They have a fairly decent wine menu but we passed after having already killed a couple of bottles in the afternoon. We started with an appetizer of nicely done chicken livers that we were able to share amongst the four of us. They were fried perfectly and not dried out. They were mild and not bitter like they can be. SD ordered a delicious plate of seared scallops AT and I both ordered that were served on vegetable risotto with mushrooms and broccoli. They looked beautiful and AT stole one from her and declared that he should have ordered them. I almost ordered the scallops, but instead went for the special Rockfish seared and served over homemade noodles with merguez sausage, asparagus and pan sauce. The birthday girl ordered the Chef's Fish Selection served over jasmine rice with some shrimp and a very good pan sauce. The fish of the day was grouper. All these dishes were excellent, well-conceived and well executed. You are going to spend a little more than in most places in the area, but sometimes you want to break out of fried seafood mode (although delicious) and have something that a chef prepares. As I said, I do look forward to bringing future guests that stay with us while we are here.
