1587 Restaurant

This restaurant offers the best creative cuisine along the Outer Banks. Expect a sense of relaxed chic and elegant food in a subtly lit, nautically inspired setting, with expensive boats bobbing at anchor in the nearby marina. Preface your meal with a drink at the convivial bar, where a bar top sheathed in polished copper reflects the faces and voices of many of the town's amicable locals. Good food and service await you here, and the menu is more sophisticated than most in the area. The best examples include sesame-seared sea scallops with a soy-and-wasabi-flavored cream sauce and sautéed tiger shrimp in a charred tomato butter sauce with artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, prosciutto, and Fontina cheese, atop a crisp puff pastry. Main courses might include grilled tuna steak over Asian shrimp fried rice, surrounded by wasabi vinaigrette and topped with marinated hearts of palm and matchstick vegetables. A vegetarian menu is also available.
