Excellent balance of fine dining, service, and atmosphere. Had dinner with the fam Friday nite. Food was absolutely delicious and service was over the top. Ask for Blake O. She was a pro and a pleasure to be served by.

Great views and a fun little bar/waiting area. Definitely recommend reservation. Food was good, but not outstanding! My husband loved the tuna special. We started with the she crab soup, which was really delicious. We also got the gnocchi, which was okay. I didn't love that it was made with cornmeal... gave it a weird texture but the taste was good.

Fantastic backdrop for a instagrammable sunset pic. Great service and the food is rock solid as well. We came here following a wild horse tour and I loved that I could plug in my Tesla while we ate. There are 4 spots for charging for free in the parking lot. Although they are slow, it's free and you might as well! Now to the food. I got the pork chop and it was as spectacular. I prefer pork over all other meats and will often order a pork chop if it's on the menu. I know that sounds odd, but honestly the pork chop is unforgiving and has to be a great choice or no one would ever order it. I definitely recommend that pork chop. Our drinks stayed full and it was overall a lovely experience.

We walked in around 7pm on a Wednesday and added our name to a waitlist for an outdoor seat. We grabbed a drink at their back bar and enjoyed the incredible atmosphere: live music and sunset views. Our server was friendly and attentive, she made great recommendations all evening. Around :20 later our table was ready. We got straight into entrees and went with the pork chop and the special: yellowfin tuna steak. Both were excellent. The tuna accoutrements (pineapple, bacon, and soy infused rice) stole the show and were incredibly decadent. The pork chop came with a thick crusty sear that was super flavorful. The thick cut was juicy and a large enough portion that I barely ate half before passing the remainder to my husband to polish off. For dessert we had the pecan pie. More of a tart than a pie, the pecan flavor was exactly what you'd expect with a bourbon ice cream that was a great compliment. The tart (crust?) was hard and a little difficult to cut. The pork chop came with a cheese bread pudding side that was amazing in its own right. Overall we had an amazing experience with a wonderful atmosphere. The perfect place to relax and enjoy a night in Duck.

Best fine dining restaurant in Outer Banks. Service - A We were seated promptly at 4:30pm. Our waitress was warm and knowledgeable. She anticipated our needs, and for dishes that we were sharing, she brought a second plate. Ambiance - A This restaurant doesn't feel touristy. It's dark, moody and stylish. It was a welcome escape from the sun, heat and humidity right outside. Food - A I can't stop thinking of how good the food was here. I had lowered expectations, because usually food in vacation locations isn't quite up to par with big cities. But everything we had was unique, delicious, and extremely high quality. Much of it is seasonal, so I'm unsure that these items will always be available. Highly recommend the strawberry salad. The Caesar was delicious as well but not as unique. The pork chop with blueberry sauce was so good. As were the jumbo lump crab cakes. My daughters had the steak and it looked perfectly cooked. I love how the sides were a bit untraditional, but even more delicious than expected. Highly highly recommend this place. Try to get a reservation ahead of time.

The Blue Point has a uniquely interesting menu, this is not your average boardwalk restaurant. it is much more sophisticated than I had expected. With a menu that incorporates a significant amount of vegetables into every dish, it is a gamble for me to rely heavily on one entree, I tend to fear the unknown of too much greenery. The fresh burrata & spiced butternut squash puree was an enlightening small plate, the rustic croutons and even the seared apples complimented the squash puree very well. Either way you can't go wrong with squash, it's an equally universal vegetable as the carrot. If you like salad and Gnocchi, you may just adore the house made cornmeal gnocchi. But if you're like me and prefer to keep the salad separate from the main attraction, this entree was too heavy on the baby kale shiitakes for me. I am sure you will find the comfortable and casual environment right on the water and easy place to sit back and enjoy an intimate conversation regardless. Cheers!

This place is absolutely fantastic! And a big heads up: IT IS OPEN DURING THE OFF SEASON. I wanted to get that out at the top! It's a great special occasion restaurant, we were celebrating my birthday, but I could tell there were a lot of locals sitting up at the bar. The food is mix of Southern Comfort and seafood. My oyster stew was INCREDIBLE. I could have had two bowls!! The shrimp and grits were moan inducing. The crab cakes were so delicious. The crème brûlée was so decadent and rich! The drinks were lovely compliments to our meals. The only thing not to write home about is the bread. Kind of reminded me of store bought potato rolls. Not really worth the extra purchase. But that's honestly nothing to worry about. Everything was 10/10 and I wish I had an extra day so I could go back for another round of delicious food! The staff is observant, friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Reservations are strongly recommended. I also suggest you leave time to get a little lost/enjoy the journey as you locate the restaurant along the beautiful boardwalk area. The setting is lovely, and I'm quite sure it offers breathtaking views of the sound at sunset. Make sure to include this on your next trip!
