Seeeking Nags Head Restaurant
Our group of 14 adults will be arriving on May 1 to spend the week. Since we all live in different cities (and states) we usually meet for lunch somewhere in Nags Head. We generally like to have a leisurely lunch and a couple of cocktails before going to the cottage to unload and get settled in.

Our requirements are:
* a diverse menu.
* located in Nags Head or Kill Devil Hills
* cold beer and wine, cocktails are a plus
* a HUGE bonus would be outdoor dining/service since we have a few smokers in the group

Does such a place exist? Please help, since it looks like I have been put in charge of arranging this part of the trip. Read Replies...

Somone did a post last summer where you could submit who you thought had the best burgers, pizza, buffet, etc. and it was SO helpful. We ate at places that were recommended and didn't get surprised by "YUCK - well we learned not to go there next year." So how about it?
