11 Best Seafood Restaurants in Jekyll Island

“Beautiful view within walking distance from Jeckyl Island Resort - good food, great service! (especially Kat!!) Great choice for lunch for the family - they are great with kids!!“

“Eating breakfast here was a glorious experience, echoing grandeur of the Gilded Age through the opulent Roaring Twenties.

My family and I had breakfast reservations for four at 8:30am on a weekday. The dining room was set to perfection as we were greeted with a welcoming smile and offered to pick any table we preferred. We selected a table by the window. It was wonderful to see a dining room set with fine China again. It seems rare nowadays.

Once settled, we were promptly offered tea, coffee, or a collection of juices before embarking on the breakfast buffet and omelet station. There were no lines yet being so early on a weekday, but my oh my, what a beautiful feast! I was apprehensive that the food would be generic given the continental selection, but I was pleasantly impressed by the tastes, presentations, and twists to the menu. The French toast and overnight oats were my favorite, with a close third place by the bacon.

In addition to the delicious food, the wait staff was attentive and happy. The tables were nicely spaced to keep the dining room at a quiet noise level. And the coffee and pots of tea kept flowing. A big plus!

The only negative I can find with my dining experience is that I was mistaken that the extra fruit juices I ordered a la carte were part of the breakfast buffet. I wish I had known that only the juices on the buffet tables were included. However, when you are dining at such a fine dining establishment, you do not mind the extra price.

I encourage dining here and will be a repeat customer! Thank you to the staff of the JIC for a splendid morning!“

“Both of the beat and arugula challenge were very good, I thought the full size could have been improved upon it was pretty small but the salad was very good. My wife had the beef tips with noodles she said it was very good. I had the curry with basmati rice it was very good it was spiced perfectly it was a little rich for my liking but it was very good.“

“We had a wonderful dinner at 80 Ocean. The gluten-free menu is excellent, and they’re very accommodating—happy to modify dishes if needed. I had a side salad and the redfish, which came with creamed corn and mushrooms. Everything was flavorful and beautifully prepared. We also shared the gluten-free meatballs and GF rolls—both were fantastic!

My husband ordered the crab cakes (not gluten-free) and the cream cheese mashed potatoes, which he really enjoyed.

The ambiance was lovely, especially with the outdoor seating near the pool area we were just inside the doors in a small nook that was quaint. A special shoutout to the kind young man opening the front door—he was a delight. We ended up having a great conversation with him while waiting for our hotel shuttle, and it meant a lot, especially since he was working on the 4th of July.

Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and dietary needs, though he seemed a bit rushed and not overly friendly. It was a busy holiday, so we completely understand and appreciate the service regardless.

Highly recommend 80 Ocean for a relaxing and accommodating dining experience on Jekyll Island.“

“I had a great experience at Coastal Grill, it is kind of hard to find, hidden behind Holiday Inn. We ordered the crab cake, fish and spicy chicken tacos, pretzel, and pizza. The crab cake burger was good, and the spicy chicken taco was also pretty good but the fish taco was lacking some flavor and was kind of dry. The pretzel was also good, it comes with 2 cheese dips, and the pizza was very cheesy.?“

“I enjoy eating here when we’re at Jekyll good food reasonably priced. Low country boil and the fresh Georgia shrimp are my favorites“

“well they have me bed bugs. so they could definitely bug bomb the building.“

“Absolutely gem of a place in Jekyll island. Tucked away in Jekyll Market, this small unsuspecting place produces some high quality food. Evelyn and Dawson were working that day and showed us nothing but kindness and generosity! We got the pulled pork and yard bird with some mozzarella sticks and everything was spectacular. Definitely worth the stop while on the island.“

“Love this restaurant! The food is always great and the staff is very friendly. Our son has several food allergies too, and they are so accommodating to prepare safe meals for him that he enjoys!“

“Food and service were excellent, Misty took great care of our group. Will always make sure a trip to Jekyll includes Tribuzio.“

“During a low-season dinner, we were one of 3 tables occupied. Service was friendly and (understandably) quick, and the food was excellent! The smoked fish spread was terrific as an app, and the seafood entrees (Georgia shrimp and Fish and Chips) were very good too!“
