A mile north of Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Diamond Shoals is a traditional family-style restaurant that has been a favorite among Hatteras Island locals and visitors for more than 30 years. Owners Keith and Angela Gray are proud to serve a variety of fresh, local, carefully sourced seafood and sushi alongside a diverse menu of steaks, vegan options, chef's specials and the popular salad bar.

They are open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Their brand-new event room is a great place to host special occasions and celebrations.
