By far one of the most delicious meals I've had in a good while. The food was fresh and super delicious, the staff was extremely friendly and courteous! The dessert was to die for. We live locally and after tonight, this will be one of our spots to eat at from now on. My husband and I are very happy we decided to eat here!Vegetarian options: You can choose what you do and don't get in your meals and the veggie options to add to your taco or quesadillas are plentiful.Kid-friendliness: We don't have kids but id bring them with me if I did.Wheelchair accessibility: There were numerous ramps in and out of the restaurant. I recommend to anyone who wants a great dining experience and are looking for access to the dining area via wheelchair accessible ramps.

It was a nice restaurant. We had the mahi tacos and the Cuban sandwich which were really good. The sides were kinda subpar and I wasn't really fond of the fried food. The place was very beachy and quaint, and the staff was really nice.

Great service and nice variety, but the food is really expensive for what you get. We were super hungry, had onion rings and pickles deep fried, they were great and came out quickly—-but servings were small. 2 fish tacos, $15 and they charge you for salsa. They don’t give you one to begin with. $160- for 5 people with 3 drinks and 2 cocktails.

Service was attentive, patio atmosphere was nice, food was pretty standard fare. Nothing to write home about, but we were not disappointed either. Dog friendly patio.Parking: Shares a big parking lot with the Food Lion

Delicious onion rings, good beer, OK flounder, and friendly staff. I'd eat here again.Parking: Their parking lot is easily three times larger than they would ever need for patrons with tables, so I guess it's for the wait line during rush in peak season.

Good service and Food selection with Full Bar. Plenty of Parking even with my RV. Sandwiches were good. A bit expensive, but all food on the Island is overpriced.

Be aware this place doesn’t provide free tap water and your only option is to purchase a $1.50 bottle of water. I thought regulations required liquor-serving venues to provide free tap water. Our waitress didn’t really speak to us, so we were not notified of this supposed policy beforehand.Very nice atmosphere though! I would definitely go back for the food but just bring my own water bottle next time!

The food was delicious and good service atmosphere.
The food was great, Came out hot and extremely fresh! The staff was awesome! There was a table that had some '5 not so nice' people sitting at it extremely rude, loud, and obnoxious and the staff didn't let it bother them in front of us other guest they remained very patient and polite with the people at the table. The restaurant it self was awesome, the walls all had funny signs and pictures, the outside seating had a great set up. Would be a super fun place to visit again in the warmer months.

Last Feb the food was much tastier than this year. Must have a new cook or kitchen staff. Our server wasn't very attentive, and was only interested in getting our party out at the end of the meal. When you order water, you are given bottled water. Would have been nice to know that. An average experience.

Ambiance - Typical beach restaurant Food - limited menu, frozen food reheated - bland burgers Service - Repulsive - When paying for overpriced food in a dirty atmosphere, you would at least expect a fun experience. Having children be subjected to the vulgar language and sexual conversations of the staff is not my definition of fun. Having the manager feel as though the f-bomb and discussions of oral performance are okay just proves this is not the place for families with children. Perhaps a couple out for overpriced beverages would even prefer a better environment. There are plenty of other options on the Island - any of them would appreciate your patronage more.

We've been to McConkey's hundreds of times, and only disappointed a couple of times when they were out of a favorite. But we always enjoy the laid back atmosphere. Beers are cold. Service is amazing. The fried fish sammy is a favorite of mine, raw fries are great. Wings are good. We always go when at Edisto.

If you are new to Edisto Beach, you need to eat at McConkey's. Most would never pick it, or even find it, without a recommendation. It sits in an old grocery store parking lot. The wood framed structure looks a bit out of square, probably from one too many hurricanes. The front door is on the opposite side from where you will park.But, the food is great, and the staff friendly. The decor is, well, "islandy." Imagine a collection of oddities washed up on the beach, or discarded by old boaters, then cleverly repurposed. No expense has been taken to make this place look like an ordinary restaurant. I really like it.I've never been on a weekend during high season. I'm sure it would be crowded then. But, try lunch on a weekday, or anytime in the off-season. when you go, you must try the homemade onion rings. Excellent.
Great food great people!!!
