   My wife and I ordered entrees from the winter menu. Both were excellently prepared and tasted wonderful. Service was great. The waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. The only shortcoming was a mixed drink that I ordered from the evening drink specials. I was told it was spicey but took the chance anyway. I could only manage a few sips. The atmosphere was an appealing contemporary coastal and the noise level allowed for easy conversation. Overall it was an excellent dining experience.

   This was our first visit to Steamers. Our server, Holly, was very nice, helpful, and informed. Everyone from the hostess station to the bar tender to the manager were delightful. On the food front, the steamer platters were spot on to what we were craving. We enjoyed the Grecian salad as welk, all fresh vegetables. The tuxedo cake with coffee was a great finish. We will be back the next time we're in town.

    Steamers has the best food and ambiance on the Outer Banks. The name Steamers suggests that all they serve is "steamed" food (that's what I used to think, but that's only how they started 20+ years ago). My favorite foods are their grilled shrimp, the crab cake over Mac and cheese, the black beans and rice, and fish du jour. And the seafood bisque. Oh, and the best French fries and hushpuppies. And Linda's mom's cheesecake recipe. And the best drink, in my opinion, is the vanilla sky martini. It's divine. But EVERYTHING is amazing. The servers and waitstaff and bartenders really care about your dining experience, and the owner, Linda, is always circulating and deeply concerned about how everyone is doing--if they're having a good experience. Steamers is the best place to eat without a doubt.

    Food was excellent, particularly the clam chowder and steamer platter. Server was attentive and food was well paced, with ample time to enjoy appetizers before our dinners were brought out. We have visited Steamers several times and will continue to come back as the ambience and food is always very good and the atmosphere is excellent.

    The food is amazing! The service is wonderful. We had a lovely meal in the bar area. It was a lively place to have a wonderfully delicious meal. There were a lot of locals there which pretty much says it all. Because I host there, I know that everything is made from scratch, and I went in specifically for the vanilla lavender martini and the crab cake over sharp cheddar Mac and cheese with asparagus. Wow, but it was better than anticipated. I'd heard it was amazing, but it was seriously incredible. My husband had the fried shrimp, and he said, "the best I've ever had." They were lightly breaded and golden, not overly fried. It was a wonderful meal. I really wanted to have the new dessert (I had a taste), but the kitchen had run out. I highly recommend the new apple shortbread. It's so yummy.

    Our family had a fantastic dinner at Steamers. The location was convenient. The ambiance and decor were very nice. The service was terrific. They sat our party of eight with no problem. We easily made a reservation on Open Table. We tried a lot of different menu items and everything was delicious. The seafood bisque was delicious. The steamed shellfish were excellent. My husband had the crab cake Mac and cheese and I had the special, a rockfish entree. Both were very delicious. I like that they had a kids menu so our daughter could get grilled chicken and vegetables in a smaller portion. We were very happy with our meal and would recommend Steamers.

    Really delicious fish special of the day- swordfish with green beans and Zuni slaw. Took a pint of the seafood bisque home for lunch today! Wonderful experience. I was a little uncomfortable with dining by myself and seated in the middle of many empty tables. I ate more quickly. I should hav asked for a more secluded seat so I think it was more my issue. However, they could have been more aware. That being said, this place a a definite stop when visiting the OBX!

    Always a delight to visit Steamers! Their chef insists on FRESH FOODS & never fails to provide superb dishes for our family of 'foodies'. Jacob is very attentive to our special MARTINI requests and gives STEAMERs a great bar to visit. Their servers are attentive and friendly. Linda, the owner, is a treat to visit with and provides STEAMERS with the warmth and hospitality of an excellent 'local' restaurant. You'll always feel welcomed with Linda and her staff. PS... the local fried shrimp, salmon and Linda's Mother's cheesecake shouldn't be missed.

    Nice, casual comfortable restaurant. We were able to enjoy a leisurely dinner (we hate feeling rushed) and experience food we can't get at home. Great menu choices, delicious food, and excellent service. Emily, our server, is a wonderful ambassador for both Steamers and the Outer Banks. We even met the owner! Highly recommend this restaurant.

    The steamed oysters were wonderful, and the steamed shrimp were nearly as good. Get the seafood bisque as a starter and the ale from 1718 Brewing - you’ll thank me! Service was great, and the food came in a timely manner.

    Pork chop was delicious, Limited seafood options, BBQ very dry, Fish/Chips mostly breading, tuna bites overcooked/dry. Waitress was perfect, knowledgeable. Over priced for quality of food but ambiance was good. Was told they plan to change their menu options soon.

    This is our favorite restaurant in the OBX. Best food, best staff, clean & upscale feel. We love the steamed seafood. Also best burger and steamed shrimp anywhere. There are hot towels and lemon to clean your hands after seafood- you’ll never want to go anywhere that does wet naps again. 10/10 every single time.

    Great meal & service. Some interruptions could be better timed. The split cost for cocktails on the bill is an appreciated approach, but the booze is too pricey knowing what the real cost & availability of each liquor brand is myself (ABC affiliation). If it were a upperclass nightclub I could understand the cost, but not here. I would readjust that if you want the locals to keep drinking happily in the off season. Local from Chicahauk… Thanks

    We drive 90 miles to visit Steamers for special occasions. We are never disappointed. On our recent visit, the blueberry mojito and star fruit martini specials were outstanding. The mahi mahi fisherman's special and the grilled salmon were both delicious. We finished the evening sharing the cheesecake and the tuxedo cake. All evening our waiter (Istvan) was very attentive without being intrusive.
