“I’m giving five stars because of Bailey! He was one of the best servers I’ve ever had! He took pictures for us was very attentive continuously refilling our glasses. He was the type of person you met and they love their job. Honestly a joy to meet him! The food was decent but I do feel the prices were a little high for the quality of the food. But the atmosphere and view definitely made up for it! We even saw dolphins while eating. I will be back!“
“I had to pull together a reservation last minute for a large group of people (20+) Victoria was so helpful over a series of phone calls and helped me ensure a space. The location is gorgeous and the food was delicious, but the customer service was the best! Thanks so much!“
“I don’t often leave reviews but we had a great meal at Hudson’s last night while on vacation here in Hilton Head and I wanted to share that. Our waiter (wish I could remember his name) was truly great. He was humble and quiet but straightforward and honest with a perfect command of the entire menu including exactly where all of the seafood options were harvested and when. I tried the softshell crab prepared two ways per his recommendation. Both were excellent. I then had Mahi over risotto which he talked me into over the shrimp and grits by explaining the risotto was made by hand. It was also excellent. The drinks were good. Deserts of key lime pie and peanut butter chocolate pie didn’t disappoint either. I didn’t look at the prices frankly but it seemed in range. Everyone else’s meal was great but they didn’t really make an effort to try anything different so I think the key might be to do just that, ask the server for some ideas and then give it a shot. Hopefully you won’t be disappointed and maybe you’ll be as satisfied as I was. Good job Hudson’s! (If you are looking to give the server an attaboy we were on the front river facing section and he was the short light haired man, the other server working with him seemed equally great btw as we interacted with him as well).“
“We had a great meal at the Crazy Crab. Our server Kim was excellent. In addition to being super friendly, she was very quick and attentive through the meal. The food was prepared quickly and perfectly. Our kids don't like seafood, so we really appreciated their diverse menu. This was the perfect spot to have a meal before we set out on a sunset cruise. We always visit the Crazy Crab when we are in town.“
“My family and I traveled to Hilton Head Island to vacation with friends. I made reservations for the Crazy Crab since it was listed as one of the recommended local kid-friendly restaurants by This Week on Hilton Head.Crazy Crab provides ample parking, stunning views with a fun playground for kids, and a vibrant ambiance. The menu consists of a diverse selection of local seafood and turf dishes. My fish tacos were delicious — perfectly battered with lots of flavor. I thought our server, Anya, provided good service throughout the meal for our large group. She was patient, friendly and organized.However, there were some notable drawbacks and disappointments. One of the chairs had ketchup smeared on it when we first arrived, which unfortunately got onto my friend's hands. Additionally, our other friend had shrimp with his broil which were not properly cleaned — thankfully, this was rectified by our server.To top it off, the demeanor of the hostess (possibly a manager) was less than pleasant; she came across as rude and condescending when we addressed our concerns on the placement of the baby sling for our baby’s car seat and our confusion regarding our reservation. A kind and respectful exchange and simple correction would have been more ideal and professional in our opinion, especially since various restaurants have different approaches to baby car seat placement and reservation numbers regarding infants.Despite these setbacks, the overall experience was still enjoyable, thanks to the picturesque setting and Anya's attentive service. However, due to our mixed experience, we are unlikely to return.“
“The seafood here is truly amazing. It’s obviously extremely fresh, and it’s very well prepared. You’re probably going to have a bit of a wait to get in, but it is well worth it, I promise.Parking: While there is a free parking lot, this place is so popular it can be hard to find a space.Kid-friendliness: It’s perfectly kid friendly, they even have crayons for the kids.“
“A marvelous gem of a restaurant that has some of the best Cajun food you could hope for. Walking through the door magically transports you 600 miles East to New Orleans, you feel like walking back out the door should place you on Bourbon Street or near Jackson Square.The food is all wonderful and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I highly recommend that no matter your meal, you save room for beignets as these alone are worth the stop.Parking: The restaurant is in a stand alone building adjacent to a strip center so there are plenty of spots along the side of the building and out front of the entrance. I've never had an issue getting a spot.Wheelchair accessibility: This is a single story building with a standard ADA manual door. All tables are free standing and chairs can be moved to accommodate any style chair. Staff is extremely friendly and willing to assist if desired.“
“Really great spot to come and hang with a group or just a few people. We were 12 so they split us to two tables, but our service didn’t suffer for it. The servers made excellent suggestions and were accommodating. I don’t personally eat shellfish, but I’ll give it a try every once in a while. Theirs was top notch and got good reviews from the others with me who were only eating shellfish. I had the steak and it was too-notch. I would definitely send my friends and family here. They also had live music which was fun but not overwhelming for the atmosphere.“
“The food was BOMB! The server (also a bartender) Derek was awesome. We got the sampler lobster (banging) Shrimp Scampi (banging), scallops (banging) lamb chops (to die for) Spinach and asparagus (amazing) scallop potatoes (bomb) mashed potatoes a little bland. Overall experience was 11 out of 10.“
“Celeste is one of our favorite restaurants when visiting from Los Angeles. The food is creative and beautifully presented while maintaining the Coastal flavors and features. The servers are professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. We love the upscale ambience which provides the palette for a memorable evening.“
“Top notch experience last night at Truffles Cafe. The interior of the restaurant is just gorgeous, with an upscale, sophisticated feel. In spite of that, we felt perfectly comfortable in our casual attire. Our server, while new in his role, got everything right. He was cheerful, attentive, offered great suggestions and made our experience overall a memorable one. Our drinks (Paloma and Martini) were a lovely way to start off the meal. Shortly after warm bread with garlic chive butter arrived at the table, our starter of Baked Brie followed. It was baked in a flaky, turnover-style pastry crust, dotted with Kahlua-soaked pecans, and served with toasted baguette slices. Our entrees (Crab Cake and Grilled Ahi Tuna) were delicious and cooked to perfection. We wrapped up our meal with a shared slice of Key Lime pie - a decadently scrumptious finish. All of the staff here were friendly and helpful. We could not be more pleased and would definitely visit again if we return to Hilton Head. One tip for anyone who wants to make a visit to Truffles Cafe and is NOT staying on the island. There is a $9 entrance fee at the gate to enter the island and you’ll need to be prepared to pay that to enter and visit the restaurant. Thanks so much for the lovely meal and service! Would highly recommend.“
“Best meal I have had down here yet. By a long shot…the shrimp and grits?!? Stupid good. The pimento cheese dip? Seriously. It’s just above anything else. Service was prompt. We sat outside under a large canopy/tent/umbrella. Fun vibe. Would absolutely come back again. Maybe even tomorrow…!Wheelchair accessibility: Not bad. They have a side gate to get in which is a bit gentler ramp than the one on the main entrance.“
“Ask yourself if a beautiful dining view is worth eating a less than exciting meal? If so, Benny’s is for you. Outside patio was very nice (again lovely view), server was lacking in attentiveness, menu offers a variety to accommodate fish and “meat” diners but nothing with cutting edge preparation. It was suggested to try the scallop dinner but $36 for 6 scallops on tiny mounds of farro is a bit rich for my wallet. My dining partner ordered the scallop appetizer and was less than impressed with the 3 tiny scallops on the plate. I selected the Swordfish dish but it was prepared with mahi because they didn’t have swordfish. The restaurant is new and will surely work out the kinks in the coming weeks.“
“Very scenic views of the water and marshy areas. Absolutely stunning place to eat dinner. The food was fantastic too. I got the calamari, a pork ribeye with Brussels sprouts and palmetto Mac and cheese. The food was hot and fresh!!!!! The dessert I got was soufflé but it was a version of soufflé not actually soufflé. None the less it was still all so darn good. Family oriented and date night kind of place. The servers went out of their way.Parking: Huge lot to park inKid-friendliness: Kids menu with a lot on it and things for kids to do at table.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp for wheelchairs.“
“We recently held our sons rehearsal dinner at the Boathouse Pavillion. it was amazing and couldn’t have gone any better. Tilden was our contact and as a former event coordinator I can tell you she knows her stuff! an absolute pleasure to deal with and I had no worries throughout the process. the food was delicious and a brownie dessert that was recommended was incredible. The service and the ambience was first class! We were so happy to have found this place. If you have an event and are not having it here, you are really missing the boat!“
“Ms Patti was such a delight she was our waitress the Aunt of the owner she told us some of their history they were born and raised not far from the restaurant. The owner was very nice the restaurant was beautiful the setup was elegant the music was nice the diversity was great. Very nice restaurant next time in Hilton we will be back to visit again. Also an amazing outside Patio!“
“We had a great time celebrating a birthday! Our group was large with kids and adults. We were able to make a reservation that day, and followed up with the phone call to change it from 6 to 8, no problem. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. There was a band playing covers of 80s music, I bet I’m allowed side, but added to a celebratory dinner.Parking: Full lot!“
“Talk about a rockstar owner. Team there is hilarious, friendly, and the food is incredible. Came in here with my sister and my to-be brother-in-law over the Christmas holiday. Our experience here was one of the top highlights of our vacation. I've got one piece of advice to future patrons: get. the. ramen.Go Birds!!!“
“We were staying in the area, and my partner Googled places to try near us. We ended up trying out the Sandbar, and our first visit was fantastic! The bartender, DB, took great care of us. He made us drinks, poured us shots, and recommended the blackened fish tacos, shrimp bagettes (don't remember the official name), and wings. Everything was delicious and perfect.We went back again the next day and the vibe was great again but the bartenders were not as attentive (DB was off) and the fish tacos were mediocre but I don't think we asked for them to be blackened ?. It's worth a try!“
“This was a memorable place in our vacation travels; from the club you can walk to the beach! The atmosphere was calming and fun. There was jazz and RB music from a one-man-band; he was delightful. The food was delicious and moderately priced.“
“The service was amazing and the food was even better. The portion sizes are more than enough. We had to get carry our containers. The hubby had the veal and I had the shrimp and pesto pasta. We will definitely eat here again. We were in town for a quick weekend getaway.“
“Let me start by saying it's a good place, the food is fair. Our issue was with the server that day. He brought the wrong order, forgot the silverware, nobody was outside for a while to take the order and then waited for him to come back so we could ask for the check. He was very friendly but his mind was not on it. That's the reason for the ⭐⭐⭐⭐Vegetarian options: They r not labeled but you can find some dishes that could work for you as vegetarian“
“This place has amazing smash burgers! Overall: excellent, quick, and friendly service, tasty food with good prices, and a nice location with outdoor seating available. They also have ice cream which is a big plus!I definitely recommend eating here for lunch or dinner!“
“Found this totally by accident... And it was filled with fun people, served Great bloody Marys and really good bar food along with a large menu. Apparently it is a Harley mtg place for special rides and raising money. Cute, clean, small, friendly, and delicious food.“
“A regular location for us. Sydney was knowledgeable and attentive without being overbearing. Also met Colin. Cared about our experience and we enjoyed meeting him. As always, food was excellent. We thought the salmon could have used a little bit of garnishing to improve the presentation. The potato leek soup was a nice starter. The bourbon bread pudding was outstanding.“
“Dined at lunch. Had the Asian influenced salad. Husband had fish and chips. Started with shrimp app at recommendation of server. It was delicious with 6 large shrimp. Broth it was in was like a delicious soup. Yummy to dip the bread in too. Most impressive atmosphere too. Beautiful instaworthy surroundings IMO. Try to get one of the 2 top tables along the right side with large leather armchairs if you are a party of 2! Loved it! Would go again and definitely recommend. See pictures attached for what we ordered.“
“One of our favorite places we dined for dinner while on our first trip to HHI. We both started with the delicious beet salad and I got crab cakes for entry and husband the roasted chicken. We enjoyed both. Would go again and would definitely recommend.“
“This was our second visit since the re-opening last week. The prices have changed dramatically and therefore I would have expected top notch food. My mahi-mahi tacos were very disappointing. They were very dry and needed sour cream, tomatillo sauce or something to add flavour. I was unable to change the accompanying tortilla chips for fruit. It’s redundant to have tortilla chips accompanying corn tortillas tacos. The chips were also soggy probably left out in the humid weather. Thankfully the margarita helped me get over the overpriced $17 taco dish.“
“Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere! Our server Dave was wonderful- thank you! Highly recommend the shrimp and calamari, she crab soup, and fried chicken if you are feeling some comfort food. Portions are great, fantastic and friendly wait staff. Beautiful location on the water, we so much enjoyed our experience!“
“The food was delicious. Started with the mushroom soup, which was very tasty.The entry was fish and also included vegetables. The flavors of all the ingredients worked well together. Two thumbs-up to the chef.The wait staff was very attentive and professional. Worth tracking down this wonderful restaurant. I will be back.“
“Slapfish is always a treat to have. I always get the lobster taquitos and the grilled fish bowl for the most part, but their lobster roll is also delicious. The people that work here are the best and very accommodating with your order. It's a cool spot to sit and eat and not stuffy on the inside. If you prefer to do take out, it's always nice too. Same great taste. Will always enjoy coming here.“
“This is my favorite restaurant in Hilton Head. Live music just about every night. Great outdoor seating with a view of the harbor. The food was great and the Hurricane drinks were delicious. After you eat you can take a walk on the boardwalk and get some photos with your family of the yachts in the background then check out all the little shops. Overall just a great dining experience. I will definitely be back.“
“We haven't been here before, but we're glad we discovered this restaurant! The service was kind and all the food we chose was really delicious and a huge portion. There was no disappointment, there was a free table, even at this busy time. We have added this place to our favorites list. THANK YOU!“
“You should stop reading this review immediately and tell Google maps to take you to Sage Room. Everyone at our table agreed our meal was fantastic. We had snow peas, fried ravioli, shrimp cocktail, crabcakes, pork chops, tuna, keylime martinis, bread pudding and a peanut butter chocolate situation. I’ve seen a few negative reviews mentioned not having bread—why would you fill yourself up with bread when all this other food is so delicious? Our entire conversation was about how good the food was. Our waiter took great care of us and the rest of the room. He was hospitable, and took care of each table in a friendly manner. The restaurant seems to take great care of their staff and they, in turn, take great care of the customers. Don’t miss this if you’re on Hilton Head.“
“Came in on a Thursday afternoon around the holidays. Able to easily grab a table outside with a pleasant water view. Server was kind but not overly attentive (we waited awhile for them to realize we were done and needed the check). I had a pulled pork sandwich, which was easily one of the best meals on HHI. My friends also enjoyed their meals. Overall, would totally go back -- no major "wow" factor but a super solid 4 stars.“
“What a great place to share my sons 35th birthday. The service was outstanding, the food was amazingly fast and delicious. There were four of us and we tried a wide range of dishes. Crab quiche, shrimp and grits, chicken and the shrimp salad. All were very good, the portions were perfect. For dessert we tried the red velvet cake and the caramelized apple cheesecake. I am sad that I cannot remember our waitresses name. She was absolutely fabulous. Highly recommended“
“The food was amazing - but I really came on here to compliment our server. Probably the most amazing service my boyfriend and I have had while visiting Hilton Head. I didn't catch his name, but he was a black gentleman with a bit of an accent. Even though they were very busy, he made sure we had everything we needed and was very sweet and kind the entire time. He definitely made our last night at Hilton Head a memorable one. Many blessings to him! ❤️“
“It’s a great spot to spend an afternoon. Food is solid and they have all the usual bar food. I had the pork tacos and they were packed. My only criticism is at the staff behind the bar. I stood there for a good five minutes as the young ladies just kept finding something else to other than make my drinks. I was the only one at the bar! But, I got over it and had a great time laying at the pool sipping on my piña colada.“
“First off been I have been wanting to try the place as it appeared to look awesome driving by. That did not disappoint it was a fantastic clean restaurant and bar with an awesome unique floor plan and open door area. I wouldn’t call it the best lobster roll on the island however. Service was mostly good still have a couple kinks to work out before the spring break and summer rush. Overall worth the try to get your own opinion.“
“We were looking for good seafood at a decent price. Seems HHI has been seriously affected by inflation. Everywhere was 30 to 50 dollars more for a dinner for 2. Not only was Woody well priced the food was delicious. We had a dozen raw oysters, pound of peel n eat shrimp and the combo platter fried with flounder scallops and shrimp. Highly recommend all of the above. Wish I knew of Woodys sooner and saved alot of money going to Skull Creek Boathouse.“
“I definitely recommend stopping by here and trying out them for lunch or dinner! I went at dinner time and they had live music and it was just so much fun! The atmosphere was so incredible! Everyone was having such a great time and everyone is soooo friendly there. The owner even stopped by my table to check in on our dinner! I absolutely loved that! The positive vibes and energy is always a plus when looking for a restaurant to eat at! Keep up the good work!! ❤️ Can't wait to go back!“
“The food and service were so fantastic we went back again! Forget to take pics, sorry. I had pancakes, sausage, and scrambled eggs; and, my partner had the Southern omleette and grits. The owner, Amy, was extremely personable and accommodating. The staff were friendly and their customer service was great. Please go to Skillets if you're looking for good food and you want to support the local economy.“
“My family and I are from out of town, here on vacation, and decided to have a night out for dinner and some drinks, food was amazing, server was equally as amazing and we felt well taken care of the entire time. One thing that really stood out was, i believe she was a server’s assistant because she brought our food out, her name was Myranda. She was so polite and kind and even let us take a picture with her bunny ears. Overall a great atmosphere and thank you for employing such down to earth, kind people.“

“Friend driving from south Florida back home to New Jersey stopped to visit and select Poseidon for dinner.I have celiac, so always searching for restaurants with options. Poseidon has an extensive gluten free menu and will take multiple visits for me to try everything.We each ordered a wedge salad. Unfortunately, they failed to deliver one to my friend. Had to flag down server. He said a second wedge salad was not ordered, but will take care of and delivered within a minute or so. The strange part is when we initially placed our order, the server read our order back to us for confirmation.The wedge salad was presented on a nicely chilled plate, which is key. Salad is well prepared and more going on than the standard wedge salad. The wedge includes tomatoes, bacon, boiled egg, cucumbers, onions and bleu cheese dressing. Well prepared and looking forward to having again soon.Friend ordered the mixed grill. Steak cooked perfectly rare as ordered. Meal was very good and crab cake was excellent.I selected the jambalaya, which is filled with plenty of items and not just a bowl of rice. The portion is on the larger side, and currently I am a tad overweight, so perfect for big boned old guy. A touch of heat at the end of each bite making it even better.A little carrot cake and gluten free chocolate cake to finish it off. Both very good.A little takeaway order of grilled chicken and baked sweet potato for my boy Handsome Sammy. Three point five paws up.Definitely plan to return and begin my little journey through the remainder of the gluten free menu.To round it out, great views as well.Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian selections including vegetarian short ribs.Dietary restrictions: Separate gluten free menu with plenty of options.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu including the all time favorite, noodles, butter & cheese“
“We love Alexander's, great atmosphere, the view of the stream passing by, the ambiance, and the staff are all great. The prime rib was a bit tough which is unusual as I have had it several times previously. We'll certainly be back!“
“I have been passing the Drydock several times each week while walking Handsome Sammy. Decided to stop ny today for a quick pop. Being celiac, I inquired about their red wine. House wine is Woodbridge, no tanks, Danny. Next level. Josh cab, not offensive.and at $7 a glass, it gets better.Bartender is very nice and personable. I do not want to mention her name for fear of others going in and begin yelling it foe attention.Have no idea about food and anything related.Maybe, the incorrect impression, but seems like a good local bar. Definitely, not stating there is anything wrong. Hell, I had my local bar / restaurant for almost 25 years while living in NJ.Every person at the bar extremely nice and friendly. Seems like a good crew of people. I plan to stop by again.“
“Went here with my family for my fathers birthday. I messed up my reservation and without hesitation they accommodated us. Our server Ryan was awesome she was very attentive and her personality was great. She made our visit a great experience.Kid-friendliness: We had our 3 year old with us and the wait staff interacted with him great.“
“We were at the restaurant for a special occasion and the staff there made sure that we had a memorable experience! Everything about our dinner was excellent - the food was perfectly prepared and delicious, the young woman from Chile who waited on our table was very professional and charming and even the young man who greeted us when we arrived was already aware of our special occasion and told us that he was planning to give us a memorable evening. My compliments to all of the HH Prime staff - well done!“
“We just had another outstanding dinner at Charlie’sWe came early to secure a seat at the bar. The two gentlemen who man the bar are wonderful, professional and kind. They make the experience even better. I ordered the soft shell crab that was prepared fried. I asked if the chef could sauté it and it was no problem. Absolutely delicious!! Can’t wait to return!“
