Hurricane Mo’s, a local favorite, is a perfect place to grab some grub after hitting the beach. Serving lunch, dinner, and even happy hour, Hurricane Mo’s will satisfy your hunger pangs anytime of the day.  

Everyday from 3pm-5pm, Hurricane Mo’s serves its infamous happy hour specials including 10 cent steamed shrimp, 35 cent wings, and 1 dollar tacos. Prices like these are hard to beat: a tab for one is rarely over 10 dollars. Wait time for a table is usually short, and you can always ask one of the friendly bartenders for a beachy cocktail while you await your table. 

The drink menu includes many signature Mo’s cocktails that include a souvenir glass to remember your happiest hour experience. From frozen daiquiris to margaritas to a cold beer in a frosted pint glass, the bar will satisfy even the thirstiest of patrons.

Happy hour isn’t the only thing Mo’s has to offer, however. The restaurant offers a full lunch and dinner and children’s menu including daily specials. Come in and try the fish tacos, crab dip, or very popular She Crab soup homemade everyday using Mo’s own recipe. Most everything is homemade using Mo, the owner’s, very own recipes. You won’t be disappointed by her savory and sweet dishes.

The restaurant offers a family friendly atmosphere, a welcoming staff, and a convenient location for any hungry vacationer. The restaurant also offers t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and souvenir pub glasses to remember your experience at Hurricane Mo’s.

Jimmy's Seafood Buffet

Home of the Crab Leg & Lobster Buffet for over 24 years! Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a great stop for an all you can eat affordable dinner extravaganza. The buffet offers over 100 different items. It even serves Jumbo Alaskan crab legs and Jumbo steamed shrimp, something you will not find on any other buffet in the OBX. The buffet offers a variety of seafood and non seafood options. Try some of Jimmy’s seafood options and load your plate with blackened tuna, Louisiana crawfish, steamed scallops and mussels, fried oysters and deviled crabs. Not in the mood for seafood? Fill your plate with steak, pineapple glazed ham, fried chicken, BBQ ribs, and fettuccini Alfredo to name a few. The buffet also offers a kid section. Let your kids load their plates with chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and corn dog nuggets. Don’t forget dessert! The buffet also offers soft serve ice cream and a plethora of baked goods. 

 

It’s been 22 years since Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet opened its doors for the first time. Since that inaugural summer, the goal has remained the same: provide customers with a tasty, fresh array of seafood full of Caribbean flavor.

 

Elizabeth Dowless and her husband Jerry had always worked in restaurants in the Outer Banks, so when the opportunity to open Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet with a couple of friends arose, it was an easy yes. The Dowlesses bought out the business in 2003, excited to turn Jimmy’s into an Outer Banks staple. When Jerry passed away later that year, Dowless knew she wanted to continue pursuing their dream on her own.

 

Dowless went all in on the concept of a fresh, flavorful seafood buffet and her hard work paid off. Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a beloved fixture of Outer Banks dining, with customers returning year after year for the fresh fare.

 

“Customers keep in contact with me throughout the winter. I get people every day asking me when we’re opening for the season, and customers book their vacations around our opening,” Dowless says. “I absolutely love getting to see familiar faces come back to see us each year. I love seeing them lose their minds over the buffet! Their excitement is what I love most about my job.”
