Art's Place - Kitty Hawk, Outer Banks Restaurant
Serving good, basic meals for more than 20 years, this tiny eatery across from the ocean is a Kitty Hawk standby well-known among locals. The food here isn't fancy, but it's inexpensive, filling, and all-American.

Sausage gravy is the most popular breakfast entree, although Art's also serves eggs, pancakes, and biscuits. The same entrees are available for lunch and dinner, along with daily specials such as fish, steaks, fried chicken, shrimp, clam strips, and cheeseburgers-all served with french fries, coleslaw, and a cucumber and onion salad.

Jalapeno poppers are a hot bet for an appetizer, and calamari is available most of the time. Art's is open seven days a week year-round. Reservations are accepted but not necessary.

Out of town visit 9/10/2011

I went down to OBX for mine and my friends birthday. We decided to stop here because it looked cozy and fun. We had a great time. The people there were very friendly and the food was great.

We had eaten there a couple of years back and it was great. Ate there last month and the service and food was horrible and it was filthy. Will definitely cross it off our list.
Well-deserved reputation 10/5/2010

It's an Outer Banks institution, yet I must admit I have only been there once. But in that one visit, the staff was extremely friendly, the breakfast was excellent, and the atmosphere was pure, happy beach. I particularly enjoyed the home fries - they were small diced potatoes, well cooked, not mushy at all. It's a personal preference, but they were exactly how I like them. You can enjoy the ocean breezes if there is room at the tiny outside bar. After you eat, check out the view from the top deck. Will definitely be back!
Great place to eat and get a cold one 6/24/2010

This was a nice place before the fire that gutted it and they had a huge burger back then. The last time I was there it had gone up in price, down in quality. At least they don't smoke in there anymore.
Great Place! 3/24/2009

Every time I go to the Outer Banks, I make a point to stop to eat at Art's Place. I find the burgers to be extremely abundant for one person to eat and the home made fries are great. The restaurant was good to start with but with the new management, it is wonderful. I tell all my friends in Virginia about it and they stop in when they are there. Great place.
Great Food! 3/10/2007

My family and I stumbled onto Art's Place by chance and it's the luckiest find we've had on the beach. Art's Place is THE place for a reasonable priced menu (at least before the fire) and fantastic food to go with it. The breakfast and hamburgers aren't to be beat on the beach... and the dinners are quite good! A definite must-eat place when on the Outer Banks.

This is an old local hangout that had a kitchen fire last year and has since been all redone. Nice, bright and NON-SMOKING. The later will make me go back. The place is known for it's huge burger, but sadly the burger has suffered from the times and is not much bigger than most $5 burgers in size. The food is good but expensive for what you get.
