19 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Pawleys Island

“Our favorite dining experience this trip! The atmosphere is stunning- warm and inviting, beautiful,with lush plants and lighting everywhere. The food was amazing I had the steak and my daughter had the Halibut. What truly set the experience apart was Myke our server, the most helpful and genuine personable person, very attentive and offered great recommendations. He made us feel right at home. Great food, friendly service, and beautiful atmosphere.“

“Bistro 217 sat my little family last minute with no reservation on a busy Monday night instead of turning us down. And when I asked for an extra fruit cup for my 2yo, they not only grabbed one for me they cut the grapes too! Huge win for momma trying to eat with a child on her lap. Thank you so much for being so kind. And as always food was delicious.“

“Landolphi's is by far the best restaurant/bakery in the area. Our compliments to the owners and staff. We come often and are never disappointed. The panninis, pasta fagioli, pizzas and desserts are quite satisfying to your taste buds. Deliziosa!!!!“

“We had dinner at Perrone's Restaurant last night and every aspect of our meal was great. From friendly bartenders to attentive servers, we enjoyed our dinner thoroughly. We tried an octopus and a mussel appetizer, and both were flavorful and delicious. The mussel sauce in particular was so good, I could have sopped it up with an entire loaf of bread. Entrees were generous portions, and the chocolate cake for dessert was really good. If you are within an hour of this restaurant and have not tried it, you're missing one of the two or three best on the entire Grand Strand.“

“Love this place! Love the food, atmosphere, and all the news friends I have made on Trivia Thursdays.“

“We had a fantastic dinner on a Monday evening. Not a lot of places are open on Monday In Pawleys Island. We had the Cesar salad and the house with the Gorgonzola dressing 😋. Then we had the meatball appetizer, the Chicken Piccata and the Chicken with the pepperonci’s and sausage (can’t recall the name). Perfect amount of spice. Each chicken dish was over linguine with 2 pieces of pounded chicken. The chicken was not overcooked. Every entree comes with either their tomato basil soup or one of the salads and bread with oil. Portions were generous, we took a little of everything home. I saw some people complaining about prices and potions but I disagree. Most dishes about $30 that includes the soup or salad and bread but anything with seafood or veal or steak of course more. I’d definitely go back the next visit and I encourage you try it.“

“Have wanted to try Hanser House for years and finally got the opportunity tonight. My husband and I agree, this has been one of the best meals we have ever had! Will definitely be back again and again.“

“We visited in August of 2025 and the staff were very friendly and welcoming and it reminded me of true Carolina spirit. Had a simple Bacon cheeseburger with tater tots and did enjoy my carryout order. Will visit again!“

“Food is great
Service is wonderful
But this place needs a deep clean. Menus have black spots, high chairs are so sticky, the floor is black & the tables feel gross. I don’t want to give this place a bad review bc I love them so much but I want this to be addressed“

“If you’re riding down Highway 17 through Pawleys Island and haven’t stopped at Pawleys Island Bakery yet, go ahead and fix that.

I’ve been meaning to swing by for a while and finally made it happen this morning. I called my order in ahead of time so it would be ready for pickup, and everything was smooth from the start. They’ve got plenty of parking — a nice, big, clean lot that makes it easy to get in and out without fighting traffic.

When you walk inside, it’s a cute, welcoming space with a counter full of beautiful desserts and baked goods. Even though I had already ordered, it was hard not to stand there and admire everything in the case.

I went with a bacon, egg, and cheese on a hard roll — and it was better than I expected. Large, fresh, and clearly made with top-notch ingredients. One of those breakfast sandwiches that feels like it was done right, not rushed. You can taste the quality.

The staff member on duty was polite and genuinely hospitality-minded. It didn’t feel like a quick transaction. After handing over my order, there was a mention that cakes were being baked in the back and that normally there would be more cakes in the case — just letting me know more items were coming out. That kind of small detail says a lot about customer service. It felt thoughtful and welcoming.

They had three coffee options today: cinnamon bun, pecan, and Kona. I went with the plain Kona, and it was a great cup of coffee — smooth and flavorful. My only “complaint”? I wish the cup was just a little bigger.

All in all, Pawleys Island Bakery delivered a solid breakfast experience — good food, good coffee, and good hospitality. I’ll definitely be back to try some of those cakes next time.“

“I had the She Crab soup and the Shrimp and Scallop dish. It was absolutely delicious! My husband had a generous filet mignon that was a perfect medium rare with a to die for mushroom cream sauce. Our server was fantastic and the vibe was perfect for those looking for something rustic and costal while still elevated. Recommend highly!“

“Five Star Breakfast & Lunchs at Applewood! We highly recommend them.“
