When you are motoring on Highway 12 South, through the Frisco Village area on Hatteras Island, you will come to a white cinderblock structure on the right-hand side. If you are looking for somewhere to eat, your first impulse may be to keep driving to find a place with a fancier exterior; but that would be a mistake, because this restaurant is known for its Island cuisine.

History
Russ Ochs, Gina’s husband, was stationed at the Navy Base on Hatteras Island. Following his tour of duty, he decided to make the island home. In January 1963, he started operating the Lighthouse Restaurant in Buxton, and in 1978, he exercised an offer to purchase a vacant building in Frisco, which had previously been a bar, motel, seafood market, private club, and restaurant. The rest is history. Russ, Gina, and their children have worked hard to create the reputation that the Quarterdeck Restaurant now enjoys.

Quarterdeck Restaurant
- Miss it
When we lived in Virginia we always took a week in the fall to stay in Frisco. By chance on our first visit we stopped by the Quarterdeck one evening and ended up eating there four nights out of seven. Eddie and the staff were always delightful and friendly. The food was beyond words.....in particular the stuffed flounder. In 2005 we moved to the Northern Oregon coast and while the area has many good restaurants, no one, and I mean no one, can come close to matching the food the Quarterdeck. Eddie you really set the gold standard for seafood. Carla still has her discount card. Best wishes, Phil and Carla DeLongchamps

- Great, reasonable food
Great food. It's our first, and last stop every time in the outer banks. We didn't go to the beach for a decade, and the food was as good as before. Can't wait to have our first lunch at the quarterdeck in June 2012!!!! And TRY THE SCALLOPS!
