“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!“

“We were staying on the island five days and discovered this restaurant the last night. It was the best food we tasted, the service was great, and the prices and quantity! Oh - and a great view! There were four of us and we all order something different along with appetizers!!! Everything was delicious!!!!! The only negative was it was our last night and we couldn’t go back the next day!!! We will definitely go again when visiting the island!!!“

“Hidden in the back of a very crowded Jekyll Market, you’ll find this hidden gem with some of the best Brunswick stew we have ever had. Would recommend the 1/2 rotisserie chicken and pulled pork. Mac and cheese was also a good choice! Comes with bread and cornbread if you order the Brunswick stew. Employees were very nice! No seating inside but outside, there are some tables and chairs that you can use.“

“We decided on this restaurant before seeing it was inside a hotel.
I was a little leery, as sometimes the food or service isn't as good.
We decided to give it a go anyway.
Group of 7.
The restaurant had just opened and wasn't busy. We enjoyed everything that we ordered. Drinks were refilled in a timely fashion.
Quiet atmosphere, peaceful ocean views.
Clean tables and quick service.
A very enjoyable experience.“

“We simply had a great Thursday night dinner. Our wait staff member explained she was an intern and English was clearly a second language but she was incredibly friendly and attentive so we enjoyed her company. It was half price wine night so we had a great bottle of wine at half the price. Our cauliflower appetizer was very well cooked and the seasoning was just right. My scallops were tasty though a little more done than necessary. My husband enjoyed his truffle fries and meatballs. A nice evening!“

“I stopped in on my way out of Jekyll Island while I was here on vacation. Absolutely amazing. My server Anna was fantastic - so friendly and attentive! I had my two small dogs with me and they were immediately so welcoming. By far the best part is that they have a screened in outdoor shaded porch and you can see the ocean. It made everything just so much more enjoyable for me and my pups. I got oysters, which are some of the best I’ve ever had and I’m from New England. And I also had the crab legs which were phenomenal. Genuinely very kind staff and so accommodating for my pups. Made sure they had water and even gave them some little pup cups to enjoy! Highly recommend stopping here if you’re ever on Jekyll Island“
