Address: The Waterfront Shops

Description: Overlooking Shallowbag Bay and the state ship Elizabeth II, this is a favorite Manteo eatery for watching boats on the water or a romantic summer moon. It’s a picturesque and relaxing restaurant with good service and equally admirable food. Formerly the Waterfront Trellis, this restaurant has been completely redesigned. Intended primarily as a wedding reception site complete with a waterfront view, this also makes a romantic reservations-only dining experience. Locals and visitors reserve Adrianna’s for wedding receptions, family parties, or reunions. Since this restaurant is less than a 10-minute drive from The Lost Colony, it’s a good place to take in an early meal before the outdoor drama begins. Beer, wine, and champagne are available. Lunch and dinner are served seven days a week from Mar through Dec.
