About Ketch 55 Seafood Grill

Since its founding in 2004, Ketch 55 Seafood Grill & Raw Bar has grown into a Hatteras Island institution known for fresh local seafood and produce alongside hand-cut steaks. The restaurant continues to seek out fine, fresh ingredients for its guests.

Friends and families are invited to enjoy an island-casual dining experience. The beverage selection includes multiple micro brews on tap, a broad range of bottled beer, and a specialty wine list designed to complement dinner.

Chef Seth Foutz has developed a menu for a wide range of palates, from straightforward seafood dishes to composed plates. Wine and beer pairings are available to support beverage choices. A kids' menu helps accommodate younger diners, and the team welcomes special dietary requests when guests notify their server upon arrival.

Ketch 55 Seafood Grill aims to make dining on Hatteras Island an experience centered on the freshest ingredients possible.
