We have been serving the Outer Banks for the many years, with our very own twist on food from around the world – and around the block. Our menu is designed to cover all types of tastes, so even the pickiest member of your party will find something they enjoy.
We are laid back, and fun offering a casual dining experience for the entire family. Eat outside, at the bar, or in our dining area. Our offerings include splashy & festive eats with Pacific Rim flavors & renowned mahi mahi tacos, plus tropical drinks.
Come to Mama’s and have a time in Kill Devil Hills the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
This was our first visit, but we'd had many friends recommend this place. They were right. The food was excellent & plentiful. Our server was very good... friendly & attentive. We will definitely be back!! If you stop in soon, check out all the great Halloween decorations... especially the animated Frankenstein statue!!

**Absolutely incredible experience at Mama Kwan’s in OBX!**
If you’re anywhere near the Outer Banks, this spot is a *must-visit*. The atmosphere is laid-back and fun, the service is friendly and quick, and the food… wow. The **fish tacos** were out of this world — perfectly seasoned, fresh, and bursting with flavor. Easily the best I’ve ever had! Everything from the first bite to the last was amazing.
We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Mama Kwan’s totally lives up to the hype! 🌮🔥👏

We've heard rave reviews of this place, but there was always a wait. Finally visited twice earlier this month, and we understand the raves (and why there's usually a wait). Great food, creative menu choices.

If you want a fun atmosphere, this is an interesting vibe.
If you want quality food, go elsewhere. Most or maybe all of the ingredients were generic, low grade and plopped onto a plate. The fish tacos were meh at best, not close to “world renowned.”
The kids meals were a slight step about cafeteria grade at a Five Guys price tag.
As someone that cares way more about taste and quality, we’ll skip eating here next time.
