Mama Kwan’s Tiki Bar and Grill Restaurant in Nags Head, NC

If you enjoy Pacific Northwest-inspired cuisine, you’ll love Mama Kwan’s in Kill Devil Hills. A longstanding local favorite, this eatery is always filled with Outer Banks residents, a sure sign that a restaurant is worthwhile.

Not an expansive dining room available at this restaurant by any means. Therefore, you’ll want to arrive early to avoid waiting 30 minutes for a table.
As far as the menu goes, you won’t want to share the fish tacos with anyone; or the coconut fried shrimp.

The pepper seared ahi tuna appetizer is drooling worthy, as are the blackened tuna nachos. Seafood isn’t the only thing on the menu either. Plenty of burgers, wraps, and salads on the menu, along with an assortment of vegetarian options.
The vibe at Mama Kwan’s is super chill. Owners, waiters, cooks, everyone is super friendly and very laid-back.

There is probably a restaurant somewhere in Hawaii like this eatery.

Open year-round for lunch and dinner, with reduced hours during the winter months.
