We ate at JK's on a Thursday evening in July with a party of 11. They were very accomodating with our large party. Most in the party enjoyed a steak or seafood or one of JK's combination specials with beef and seafood. We also had the fried green tomatoes appetizer which was delicious. Service was good from the start but... more

My husband and I recently returned from a trip to the Outer Banks, NC and we dined the first night at JK's. I did a thorough review of favored restaurants in the area on Trip Advisor before we left and I almost overlooked JK's because it somehow had 'barbecue joint' attached to it's name. While they do have ribs on... more

This is the best place we've eaten yet in the Outer Banks. The filet and the lamb chops were out of this world and cooked to perfection. The veggies and potoatos (either mashed or baked) were also great, and the tobacco onion rings were out of this world! The service was great, and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxing. And... more

Another fine restaurant in the KDH area. Wide selection of steaks but lots of local fish too. The atmosphere was as appetizing as the food. Not the place to bring the 5 year old that likes to run around the table. Quiet and romantic. Another one not to miss. more

My wife and I are from the Chicago area and have dined at some pretty good restaraunts over the years. I can honestly say that the meal we had tonight at JK's was one of the best we have ever had. I had the mixed grill and my wife had the salmon. The seasoning was exceptional and everything was cooked... more

I look forward to visiting JKs every time I am in the Outer Banks and have never been disappointed. They have the best and most extensive wine list I have seen anywhere in the Southeast. I have ordered steaks, ribs and seafood off of the menu and have loved every one! They have a great combination of classic favorites and... more

It's funny to see this characterized as a barbecue place because I'd never think of it that way from either driving by it or eating there. Overall, this seemed like much more of a steakhouse/seafood restaurant of an upscale variety rather than a barbecue joint (although I think that they have ribs on the menu). This is a nice restaurant,... more
