19 Best Cocktail Bars near Bluffton

“Food was innovative & overall a 5. The fried chicken kare kare was a favorite. Tip: Don't eat outside until they add fans or something to discourage the unbelievably aggressive flies! My wife & I spent the entire brunch trying in vain to keep them off our food & drinks .“

“Our waitress Melissa was very kind and courteous! We also had Riley, Clair and Amy wait on us as well as Gavin bringing us our food! The tomato dill soup and the pasta New Orleans are my go-to when I come here! They are both sooo delicious and the bread is fresh served with an herb butter! Absolutely divine! They even have cute match books to take home with you! I love a good match book! The ambiance is great!!“

“Our server was extremely accommodating. I had been here once before and loved a sandwich that was no longer on the menu. After explaining why I came back, he quickly went to the kitchen to see if they could make that sandwich… and they did! The margarita pizza is the best in Bluffton. Great atmosphere and even better service and food“

“Went for lunch today and will definitely be back. The owner Pete was working the bar, the indoor dining area and the outdoor dining area by himself. He was friendly, gracious and apologetic to our group of 4 for our wait. We had zero complaints. The food was great, the drinks on point and great atmosphere. He gave us a discount on our bill for the wait even though he was the only one whoever mentioned it! Recommend stopping in for the food, drinks and vibe. I’m sure Pete will be working and hope he serves you.“

“Tonight was our 2nd time eating at Crudo and once again everything was amazing. We started with the crispy octopus which was flavorful and tender. It was recommended to us by the server and another couple we ended up talking to seated next to us, and it was truly a fantastic recommendation. My husband had the Wagyu steak which was better than any local steakhouse in the area and I had the Lobster Roll which was sweet, tender, and juicy. The service was impeccable and Crudo offers a quant, quiet atmosphere. If you haven’t been, you are missing out on the best restaurant Bluffton has to offer.“

“The brisket tostadas have become my favorite!! I love the atmosphere, the food is really fresh, service is phenomenal“

“Beautiful place to discover We had a very nice evening. Everyone was welcoming and attentive to the guests. We had a drink at the bar (their house infused pineapple jalapeno tequila is really good) Then we were showed to our table and Autumn was our server. She was amazing with her knowledge of the menu and wine pairing! The overall attention to details from the staff was worthy of 5* hotels like the Four Seasons etc.. The food was really good! The oysters are worth the visit! Their pimento hush puppies were a stand out as the shrimp and grits. My tuna appetizer was a bit underwhelming. I would rethink that one. Price wise is as expected in this kind of environment and experience“

“This is a beautiful black owned business. I was impressed with the decor, the outside is so inviting. The overall vibe was delightful. However, the service was extremely slow. After sitting for several minutes without being greeted, I flagged the closest server to ask about our server. There was no management on the floor at all. Once our order was taken the service didn't improve. The meal I ordered was ok.. I have the highest hope for this incredible eatery but it is obvious extensive training is needed.“

“I had an amazing dinner experience for taco Tuesday recently all of the food and drinks were excellent and the service was some of the best I’ve had in the area in a long time. It was my first time at the Bluffton location so I didn’t know what to expect and was blown away. I love the Hilton head location can’t come back to enjoy taco Tuesday in Bluffton.“

“Wow! Great place to eat and they have a boardwalk to the beach, 3 swimming pools, wonderful place to hang out.We met one of the owners, Russ, who was very kind & a great host. Highly recommend this place!“

“Had a after dinner drink at the bar. Great location right next to the beach lots if seating. There us a walkway to get to the beach if you want a stroll after dinner. Staff was very friendly and a wide variety of food and beverages. Lots if outdoor seating and there was a music playing when we arrived around 7pm“

“Absolutely amazing food and service! We're celebrating our 11th anniversary, and it was made extra special by the staff. Thank you! ❤️“

“Great atmosphere only to be enhanced by attentive staff. All of our entrees were cooked to perfection!“

“Love Bowdies! Amazing steaks and service.“

“My family and I had the pleasure to visit this place last weekend and we had the most amazing time. The food was great and the drinks and entertainment excellent. I wanna thank the bartender Erin who made some delicious drinks. 2 thumbs up to her. The Band was great both nights. I will recommend this place to all my friends heading to Hilton head.“

“Shout out to Will the late night bartender! He's attentive even in the hectic busy moments. He's caring and concerened. Bamboo has amazing food, and even better staff! Love you guys, and we'll make itout again the next chance we have.“

“😀 Great hamburger! Fries hot and crispy!! Pleasant staff. Affordable.“

“We had a few nice meals here while staying at the Omni. The food is nothing too special but it works if you don’t want to leave the resort. Pretty much any drink you get is $15-18 which is wild for just a mojito or standard daiquiri.

The one time we sat there and ate, a really nice gentleman served us and when he brought our check let us know it said Hannah because she was supposed to be our server. We literally never even saw her so we just tipped him cash. It didn’t seem right.“

“Skillets is absolutely amazing! From the food to the beautiful ambience. Our waitress Marilyn was so kind and attentive. I had the Mahi tacos. They were the best I've ever had. There chef Keman cooked everything to perfection. All of the toppings were homemade. Love that place!“
