“We had a 100/10 dining experience at the Canoe Club for a friend's 45th birthday. The food, service and ambiance were all outstanding. The dining room is large but dimly lit so that it still feels cozy and the service was attentive without ever being overbearing. My favorite dishes were the cauliflower and sweet potato bisque that my husband ordered and the pan roasted duck breast, but I heard that the shrimp toast was also a banger. For dessert they brought out these absolutely incredibly crafted white chocolate oysters with coconut sorbet and gelee. They looked exactly like the real deal and tasted wonderful. Really couldn't recommend this spot more!“

“We stopped for a mid afternoon snack and beer and were so grateful we did! Azaria was our exceptional waitress, who was pleasant, sweet, answered questions, and gave recommendations. We had oysters and the crab/shrimp dip in the bread. My husband gets oysters whenever we visit a coastal area (we live on the coast in Delaware) and found the oysters from the May River to be the best he has had. The dip was perfect - thick, full of crab and shrimp, and not salty. We visit Bluffton every Spring and we will be back to Bluffton Family Seafood House! Also, we recommended this place to others already!“

“5 stars because what you get for what you pay is pretty good. Does not mean it's perfect. You should know that you cannot take carts into the parking lot and there are zero water stations on the course, which ought to be illegal in the low country. The greens had weeds in them, but the ball still rolled fine. With Low Country golf on the good side of $100 becoming harder to harder to find, I'd play here again.“
