Sugar Creek Seafood - Nags Head

Spectacular all around! As a OBX frequenter I am sad I didn't know about this place sooner! The beautiful location, amazing food, and over the top service make this place a need to try. Our waitress Carly was fun, attentive, and super knowledgeable about the menu! We tried the hush puppies and cheese curds for appetizers both amazing (the hush puppies are obligatory fyi). For entrees we had the Oregon Inlet Tuna and the Gorgonzola Ribeye. Though we did not get to try any this time, the dessert menu looks fantastic. We will be back!

Was looking forward to it based on the reviews but they fell short. They were super busy but we got seated quick. Our waitress seemed stressed. Nothing memorable. It was overpriced for what you're getting. I don't think it was fresh. Wouldn't go back.

My husband and I tried this place for the first time and we both loved it. When we went in, we were told that the wait would be over an hour, but there were some available spots at the bar and the communal table. We ended up sitting at the communal table and our waitress was wonderful. She was very attentive and friendly. Both of our meals, our drinks, and our dessert were all delicious. We will definitely be back next time we are in the Outer Banks.

Wow! This spot was a home run on all fronts. Starting with the food: The seafood was so fresh and tender. Ordered the fried oysters, broiled scallops, and the soft shell crabs. The batters on the crabs were super light and did not detract from the flavors of each individually. The batter on the friend oysters were a bit heavier but the oysters themselves were very fresh and cleaned so well. The scallops were perfectly broiled and buttered I got a couple with sand and harder bits but the rest were cleaned perfectly. Each dish came with mashed potatoes, a zucchini based mixed vegetable side, and the portions for each type of seafood were generous. The sauvignon blanc wine was also smooth and paired well with the dishes. Also split a lemon mascarpone cake slice which was moist, bouncy, bursting with fresh lemon flavor, and layered with light layers of mascarpone icing. Delicious! Outside of the food, the venue itself is gorgeous. Right by the water and perfect for sunset. The dock is great for waiting with a drink in hand. Didn't have any issues with mosquitoes despite being on the sound side. The service was exceptionally kind and smooth. Our waitress, Cassie, was terrific! Very quick, sweet, and multitasking very efficiently. We were seated with at least 4 other parties in the room and she was bringing bills and menus while carrying drinks and entrees on a platter all at once. The young boys cleaning the tables too after parties left also were very thorough yet efficient. Parking wasn't too bad when we came but the lot was full when we left. We arrived around 7p on a Sunday, was told we would have upwards of an hour wait, but were seated in 25 minutes, so not too bad! Pricing for the amount of seafood on dishes was really fair. There is a 3% credit card fee so consider brining cash! Overall, this place hit the mark on everything and was superb. Would highly recommend!

The food is delicious and appropriately priced for what you are getting. The view is beautiful and it is great for lunch, with smaller crowds and an easy ability to get a table. The drinks were strong and the staff was pleasant! The Philly chicken sandwich needs to be renamed or removed from the menu, as it is a poor representation of what is eaten in the city of brotherly love
