Black Marlin Bayside Grill Reviews
This was my first time at Black Marlin and it was truly outstanding! My best friend and I get mussels at restaurants all over town, and these are some of the best ones we've had so far in the Hilton Head and Bluffton area!! Bryce was our server and took such great care of us!! (Thank you Bryce for making us bread! 🥹) Overall a great experience and would highly recommend! Will be back for sure!
I had a fantastic dining experience at Black Marlin Baysude Grill Restaurant! The food was remarkable, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The service was equally impressive—attentive and friendly, making our visit truly enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal in Hilton Head!
Outdoor area is a disaster. Ground and tables and chairs covered with tree debris. Caterpillars walking all over the tables and chairs and onto your clothing. We asked to move inside which they did. Our server Ethan was terrific and handled our move perfectly. Food was average.
