About

Red Sky Casual Dining & Cocktails sits right on Duck Road, the main route through this walkable soundside town, serving up casual American fare and a solid cocktail list in a laid-back dining room. It's the kind of place that fits Duck's low-key, upscale-casual character — no pretension, just a comfortable spot to sit down after a day on the beach or wandering the boutique shops along the boardwalk.

The menu leans toward approachable, crowd-pleasing dishes with a full bar and cocktail program alongside it, priced in the moderate range typical of Duck's dining scene. Open six days a week, Red Sky closes on Sundays, so plan accordingly when mapping out a week of Outer Banks dining.

Duck itself rewards a slow visit — park once and walk to the sound, the shops, and dinner. Red Sky's spot on Duck Road puts it within easy reach of the town's compact commercial stretch, making it a straightforward add to an evening that also includes a walk along the Currituck Sound boardwalk.

Our 10th year in OBX but our first time at Red Sky and it was amazing! Dru was the best server and Kim’s cocktails are fabulous! A good time was had by all.

We’ve tried different restaurants each night of our trip to Duck, Red Sky is hands down the best of them all! Go! It was so delicious that I’d be willing to go there every night and never try another place….. 10/10 recommend!

Absolutely horrible, horrible service, food was unseasoned and bland, asked specifically for no dairy twice and then got fries with PARM on them
