About

Sam & Omie's sits right on the Beach Road (S Virginia Dare Trail) in Nags Head, close enough to the water that the salt air follows you in the door. It's a straightforward, no-frills spot built around getting people fed — starting with breakfast at 7:30 in the morning and running through dinner most nights, with a menu built on classic diner fare and local seafood.

What to Expect

The $$ price range puts it solidly in casual, everyday-meal territory rather than a special-occasion splurge. It's the kind of place regulars build a routine around: early coffee and eggs before a day on the beach, fresh seafood for lunch, or a low-key dinner without needing a reservation.

Hours: Open 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday through Saturday
Closed Wednesdays — plan around the midweek closure
Sundays: Shorter hours, 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM, breakfast and lunch only
Location: On the Beach Road in Nags Head, a short walk from the Atlantic

Call ahead at (252) 441-7366 or check samandomies.net before making the trip, especially midweek or late in the evening.

Been coming here every year we vacation. This time was off. I got the maple sausage special with two eggs sunny side up and gravy over the biscuit. The sausage was raw and the maple tasted chemical. The eggs came raw! Bottoms were cooked but the top off the eggs was raw, and im not talking about the yolks. I get them not being cooked. When I learned to cook eggs I used a spatula that was hot to cook the top of the egg or basted it, but never raw. Im sorry this time was off.

I did not like this restaurant at all. The fried fish was so bland, my calamari was cold and greasy and the waitress kept getting in our faces to talk. We were seated quickly but there was flies everywhere.... Even on the condiments that are left out and open. The place looks so unclean. The staff seemed very friendly and welcoming. I believe this had to be a locals favorite.
