Some vacation traditions are worth keeping. 🦀

Maybe it’s the same beach house every year, the same spot on the sand, or that one dinner everybody starts talking about before you even get to the Outer Banks.

We’d be pretty dang honored if Dirty Dick’s was part of yours. ❤️

Bring the family, grab a table, crack some crabs, make a mess, and make us part of the tradition.

Now THIS is what we call a table full of trouble. 🦀🔥

Snow crab legs piled high, fried seafood coming in hot, fries underneath it all… somebody better grab the butter and get to crackin’.

Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t wear anything you’re scared to get a little messy. 😂

That’s how we do seafood at Dirty Dick’s.

Pull up, crack one open, and let the good times roll.

Homemade chips so good they honestly deserve their own fan club. 🥔🔥

Crispy. Salty. Golden. Made right here in-house and dangerously easy to keep reaching for.

If you’ve been to Dirty Dick’s and haven’t tried the homemade chips yet, well, we really don’t know what to tell ya. 😂

Do yourself a favor and fix that next time you’re in.

A little Dirty Dick’s I Spy for ya. 👀🦀

How many of our questionable words of wisdom can you spot around the restaurant? 😂

Topless oysters. Practice safe seafood. Use condiments. And trust us, those ain’t the only ones hiding around here.

Next time you’re at Dirty Dick’s in Avon, keep your eyes peeled and tell us your favorite Dirty Dick-ism. 😏

Table for one? Yeahhhh, good luck with that. 😂🦀

This is the kind of spread that has everybody reachin’ across the table saying, “lemme try just ONE bite.” Next thing you know, half your plate’s gone.

Crab cakes, shrimp, pasta, burgers and plenty more where that came from. Come hungry, order too much, and fight over the last bite like family. 😏

That’s how we do dinner at Dirty Dick’s in Avon.

All crab. All cheese. Absolutely no self-control. 🦀🧀

Our Louisiana Crab Dip is hot, cheesy, loaded with crab, and served with fried pita chips made for scoopin’ up every last bite.

Sharing is technically allowed, but we ain’t saying you should. 😏

Come get crabby with us!

09/05/2026

Crabs get top billing around here, but don’t sleep on the steak. 🥩🔥

Our Steak of the Day gets brushed with DDX BBQ butter and served up with Brabant potatoes and the vegetable of the day.

Ask your server what cut we’re slingin’ tonight, then prepare to make everybody else at the table jealous. 😏
