South of KDG

South of KDG in Nags Head is a vibrant, chef-driven eatery that brings bold American and Latin flavors and creative coastal cuisine to the Outer Banks. A stylish spinoff of the beloved Kill Devil Grill (KDG), this fresh new spot offers a playful, upscale dining experience rooted in high-quality ingredients and adventurous tastes.

The menu at South of KDG is inspired by the rich, diverse flavors of Central and South America—think smoky street corn, house-made tacos, and expertly grilled seafood with zesty sauces and bold spices.
