New American Restaurants near Saint Simons Island, GA

“Great night, great food, Harrison our waiter, and all his coworkers were exceptional! We had a great seat by the beautiful fireplace, and the beer is fabulous! The Blueberry was my favorite! The potatoe ship skillet, Brussels sprouts, beet hummus and veggies, stuffed pretzel , and Caesar salad were awesome! Can’t wait to go back !“

“Our second trip to GSG was not as pleasant as the first. Our table was plagued with several flies that harassed us our entire meal, I actually dispatched an ant crawling on the table too. Our smoked fish dip appetizer was extremely “fishy” like it was made with mullet or something. It was not good. We each tried one taste and left it alone. The crab stew was great. My triple tail special was great. My daughter’s bacon poached salmon was supposed to be prepared medium, but it was rare…very. So, I wound up trading her a portion of my dinner so she would not have to eat almost raw fish. Overall, I expected much more consistent greatness given the difficulty we have had obtaining a reservation. Disappointed“

“We just had an amazing meal and Jason the manager was amazing! They were so friendly, food was quality, and not only fresh but delicious! All around a great restaurant and I recommend as a must visit if you’re in the area.“

“Delicious filet and fresh vegetables!“

“Best breakfast/Brunch on the island, the food is always on point.. Service is always great… Maybe a wait because of the demand and limited seating“

“Finally went to The Ocean Lodge last night with my great friend, and we were both so pleasantly surprised. The views are simply spectacular, and to be honest the food,music, and drinks were totally amazing! I was expecting very little with the food and the service, but it was phenomenal. I was very impressed and can’t wait to go back.“

“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.?“

“Pool bar is awesome! Check when open in off season. Olivia was great this fall! Made the time pass with fun bar life. Wish it was open more than Fri-Sun in late Oct & maybe close at 6, but we continued to go each year for the last 17 years in late Oct! Love the memories. Food good too!“

“I’m a very opinionated person and I’m tough to be completely impressed with a restaurant, but this place was awesome. I was at first concerned as my family was would we like the food. Well just to let everyone know if you like trying new stuff or like to experience different food this is the place to go. I’ve never gave a restaurant a 5 thumbs up 👍🏼, but I was so impressed and my 12 year old granddaughter was also as much as my cousin and her 17 year old daughter. The vibe was awesome the waitress and manager made us feel so welcome even the hostess was really friendly. We sat outside and it was so relaxing and cozy. I can’t even brag enough on the food, workers, and the atmosphere there. We are already planning birthday trips and having family join us for the experience. Go try for yourself and have an open mind about the food. We were like ummm not so sure, but the blends were out of this world. ❤️🙌🙌“

“My green beans and sweet tea were delicious. My beef brisket sandwich was all fat. I threw most of it away. I ordered the BBQ pork egg rolls and did not receive them but paid for them. This was a drive thru order. I should have made sure everything was there before popping back on 95.“

“Although we have been regulars at Reids for the past few years (with a strong attempt at never missing a Sunday dinner!) they really outdid themselves during my 40th birthday! you can always count on their great food, amazing atmosphere, and awesome staff that works on ensuring your whole party finds the experience memorable and that the staff is part of our family. We are moving down to Jacksonville at the end of the month, yet have already made plans to come back routinely for the Reids experience! If you haven't been there yet, it's a must go!“

“I live out of town & go to Brunswick at least once every week & eat at Maggie Mae’s. They are so nice, very fast service, always checking on you & the food is Amazing! I definitely recommend them!! They even serve breakfast all day. I just wish they were open later. Sometimes my appointments are after 2 pm & they’re closed so I miss out but I always eat here whenever I can! Lovely people & great atmosphere!“

“We had the Korean tacos and they were amazing! Chef Quimet does a great job on everything he makes and creates.“

“Moved to Brunswick a couple of months ago and I’ve had a couple of different people tell me about this place. Ate there today for the first time. Had a kraut dog and was delicious! Good fries, too! I will be a repeat offender here.“

“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!“
