7 Best Italian Restaurants near Sea Island

“While staying at The Cloister resort Sea Island, we had dinner at Tavola. To start with, the bread served to our table was delicious. We followed the bread with a shared Caesar salad which was very good. The best part of the meal was the entrees. My wife had the chicken picatta which was deleicious. I had the veal picatta & it the best veal dish I have ever had. The veal was tender & had great flavor. The toppings were equally outstanding. The portion was ample, but I has to finish it because it was so good! Great meal.“

“Nestled in a quaint corner, CJ's Italian Restaurant offers an eclectic dining experience that tantalizes taste buds with its flavorful creations. Despite the culinary delights, the service experience leaves a bit to be desired.Upon entering the cozy establishment, it becomes apparent that CJ's packs a punch with its food offerings. The ambiance is inviting, and the aroma of Italian cuisine fills the air, setting the stage for a delightful dining experience.However, the service aspect falls short of perfection. During a bustling evening, we encountered a lone waitress valiantly managing the rush. Though the staff, including the waitress, exuded friendliness and dedication, the strain of understaffing was evident. It took a considerable 20 minutes for our drink order to be taken, followed by another 15-minute wait for our food order.Yet, despite the initial hiccup, perseverance paid off as we savored CJ's culinary delights. The cheesy bread, a delightful starter, teased our palates with its scrumptious blend of flavors. The main courses, the chicken pesto pasta, and the calzone, were nothing short of amazing. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients and expert preparation.In conclusion, while CJ's Italian Restaurant may fall short in the service department on busy nights, the culinary experience more than compensates for any inconvenience. With a bit of patience, diners are rewarded with a gastronomic journey that leaves a lasting impression. If the establishment addresses its staffing challenges, it could easily earn a five-star rating from satisfied patrons like myself.“

“Parking: Plenty of parking. It is in a small malKid-friendliness: Great grandson and great-granddaughter loved it. The 1 year old was provided with treats she could eat.Wheelchair accessibility: I am in a wheelchair and had plenty of room in the one story restaurant.“

“I have been here several times and the pizza is always great. They have a lovely covered porch which was wonderful as we were able to bring our dog. You order inside and they will bring your order out to you. I forget the name of our pizza we had but it had spicy sausage, peppers and cheese. It is wood fired and the crust was delicious. It was delicious and a perfect size for the two of us. Add a couple of house wines and it was a perfect dining experience. We will definitely be returning. Check it out - you will be glad you did. Oh and they have a lot of TVs inside so if you want to watch sports while eating you are set.“
