New Restaurant to Stony Point

RTD is reporting that a new seafood restaurant, the Outer Banks Seafood Co will be moving into the vacant Uncle Julio’s Rio Grande Café and expects to be open in December. Hiring will begin on Monday.

The current menu for the Outer Banks Seafood Co. includes shrimp and grits with apple-smoked bacon; sliced bistro steak with a flat iron grilled lobster tail; crab-stuffed flounder and shrimp; and Crabmeat Remick with Swiss cheese au gratin.

Heading the culinary side of the restaurant is Chef Wes Stepp, who previously owned the Red Sky Café in Duck and worked as the executive chef at Kelly’s Outer Banks Restaurant & Tavern in Nags Head.

The Red Sky Café is a favorite of ours when we go to the Outer Banks and makes some killer sandwiches.
