Ocean Boulevard Bistro and Martini Bar
Our verdict
A strong Kitty Hawk choice for date night, adult groups, and celebrations when cocktails matter as much as dinner. Expect an upscale-casual American bistro format with seasonal seafood, beef, martinis, wine, private dining, and a lively low-lit room that feels more grown-up than a casual beach stop.

Ocean Boulevard Bistro and Martini Bar is a Kitty Hawk option for guests who want seasonal American bistro cooking, seafood, and martinis. At about $60 per person, with a smart casual dress code, it suits diners seeking a polished meal without formal framing.
Its core identity is seasonal American bistro cooking, seafood, and martinis. Signature dishes include Pan Roasted Duck Breast, Grilled Six Bone Rack of Lamb, Pan Seared Sea Scallops, Chef’s Fish Selection, Grilled Angus Beef Tenderloin or New York Strip, and Panko Crusted Jumbo Lump Crabcake. Together, they balance coastal choices with classic bistro-style entrées, giving the restaurant a broader profile than a seafood-only stop.
Book it when the group wants martinis, seafood, and seasonal American bistro cooking
The clearest reason to choose Ocean Boulevard Bistro and Martini Bar is its combination of seafood-focused bistro cooking and martinis. The menu profile points to substantial entrées, seafood, and bistro-style proteins. For travelers or local diners comparing Kitty Hawk meal options, that combination defines the restaurant’s lane clearly.
Food-wise, order from the documented signatures. Pan Seared Sea Scallops, Chef’s Fish Selection, and Panko Crusted Jumbo Lump Crabcake cover seafood, while Grilled Angus Beef Tenderloin or New York Strip, Pan Roasted Duck Breast, and Grilled Six Bone Rack of Lamb broaden the American bistro range. That makes it useful for mixed preferences when one diner wants seafood and another wants beef, duck, or lamb. The listed dishes read as complete, centerpiece entrées rather than casual snacks or a narrow bar menu.
Plan around the essentials
The profile confirms several full-entrée choices and smart casual positioning, suiting a more polished Kitty Hawk meal. Treat it as an option where food and martinis are the focus, especially for guests who already want seafood-forward ordering.
For a special meal, the strongest confirmed details are the $60-per-person price point, martinis, seafood dishes, and smart casual dress code. Plan attire accordingly within a neat smart casual frame. The price point sets expectations before booking or walking in, since the restaurant best matches diners planning a considered meal rather than an especially inexpensive one.
Who should choose it, and who should skip it
Choose Ocean Boulevard Bistro and Martini Bar if the priority is seasonal American bistro cooking in Kitty Hawk, especially seafood, martinis, and substantial entrées such as scallops, crabcake, fish, beef, duck, or lamb. It is logical for a group that wants one restaurant to cover coastal seafood and heartier land-based entrées within a smart casual frame. Skip it if the group wants a clearly low-cost meal or needs confirmed details on a specific seating format, event setup, or dietary program; the available profile does not provide enough confirmed detail to make it the strongest fit.
