Restaurants near Saint Helena Island

“This local restaurant has the absolute best Shrimp and Grits on their Sunday menu. Their fried shrimp is the best I've ever had and their Beedos burger is amazing. With a great variety of sides and homemade desserts, you won't be disappointed with anything you order here. It's on the way to Hunting Island State Park. Doesn't look like much but it's the best restaurant in in my Beaufort by my far. Any of day is a good to day to eat at Beedos and their Sunday menu is extra special.”

“I had the warm chocolate chip cookie coffee that they had for their winter specials and it was delicious, the ladies working today were as sweet as can be! what a great experience!”

“Great food! Always very friendly and very attentive waitress. Enjoy eating there every trip we make to Hunting Island.”

“New owner who was great! She came over and made sure everything was good multiple times Food was great quality and service was good !”

“Fantastic pizza”

“Been eating here since 1973 on my first trip to Hunting Island State Park. Food has always tasted fresh and delicious.”

“Small store but not too much selection, the customer service was great. It has a restaurant in the back, but we did not dine. It is off a road that has heavy traffic and usually gets congested, it can be a hassle getting in and out.”

“This place is amazing. We have ate here 2 times this week. The bartender makes this place. He is so out going !!!! The food. Omg. The crab dip. The steak. The chicken with cheese and bacon and the Wings are out of this world. And the drinks. The drinks was amazing. Keep it up guys and keep the bartender.”

“I've had the pleasure of photographing many beautiful weddings, family sessions and surprise engagements on Fripp Island, and I've also been commissioned by Fripp Island Golf & Beach Resort to capture the energy and excitement of their island events—what a blast it's been! Fripp truly offers something for everyone. Whether it’s family-friendly fun, cocktails at the Sandbar by the adults-only pool, a round of golf, or a relaxing beach day, they’ve got it all covered. I’m grateful to be part of it and can’t wait to see y’all at the next event!”

“I'll say I was really surprised by the quality of the food. Usually the captive diners by the pool don't get the best service or food. Even my very (VERY!!!) picky son enjoyed his first burger.”

“Megan and each fabulous person, Nate & Luke too, so make our dinners @ Beach Club Restaurant spectacular each and every time! My table I love is always waiting where from the moment we sit down, my husband and I together or when I pop in unexpectedly on a Saturday when I come to our Fripp ocean honey are just so thankful.. The fresh food makes me feel like we are home in Southern California and the deserts well, let's just say, I skip the salad after the entree each time as Megan always makes fresh coffee as I sip the last of my chardonnay and Alden enjoys the last of his cabernet.. Can't say enough good things about The Beach Club! Thank you all!!”

“Great food and service. Best in this area for sure.”

“William Green; the owner of this small home-style "Gullah Cooking cuisine" restaurant, let us (party of 8) in after closing early due to poor weather. The hospitality he greeted us with was as if he had never closed the restaurant. This kind, generous man welcomed us into his local-art-stocked room. Mr. Green was the only worker in the place at this time. He took our order with impeccable accuracy, went back to the kitchen, and prepared the comfort food himself. Surprisingly, he arrived with the food 20 minutes after the order was placed. The stories he told us of his fishing and hunting excursions are spiritual connections I will carry for a lifetime. This man is truly God-sent, and if you're ever in South Carolina, I recommend this place "Gullah Grub", to anyone in the area. He will treat you with upmost respect and courtesy and he will give you his best! God Bless this man and his family!!”

When we return to Beaufort we certainly will return! Service, great timing in bring out absolutely delicious food. We highly recommend!”

“My husband and I had the very best experience at Ribaut Social Club for my birthday date night!! We started with rooftop cocktails (made to order) before heading down to dinner in the beautiful dining room. My filet mignon was the best I have ever had! I grew up in the restaurant business - my parents were founders, owners, operators of their high-end steakhouse; my dad trained his chefs and served only the finest of everything. Chef Rob is truly a master chef - my filet was outstanding!!! I highly recommend Chef Rob and Ribaut Social Club for your very best dining experience!! You will definitely enjoy the service, atmosphere, and most delicious menu choices created by Chef Rob!!”

“It was my absolute pleasure to help Y'all get started in a small way ! I finally had a chance to come in and experience the place and we were floored ! Totally amazed !”

“Wonderful place with amazing, friendly staff. The food was fresh and incredible. Will definitely recommend to friends visiting Beaufort. (I live in Charleston but visit family often) again, I can’t say enough about how wonderful the service was. Love the house-made English muffins 👨‍🍳”

“Exceptional ambiance, food, and service. Looking forward to next time!”

“This should be a regular stop for me. Coffee and breakfast are amazing!”

“My fiancé is has an ice cream obsession. We like to try out new ice cream shops whenever we travel. Fabulous ice cream, unique flavors and fantastic service! We will be back next time we’re in Beaufort!”

“We love Chef Frank and the amazing intimate experience he and the servers create inside the restaurant. I have been several times and every time I have eaten here the food has been unique, delicious and presented perfectly. My favorite place in Beaufort County.”

“If you want the best pizza in Beaufort look no further. We stopped by and had a choice of seating in either the hip store to the left or more traditional place to the right. Same great food. We chose the left and had spectacular service from Sean. A great local resource he went out of his way with service you only find in expensive venues. The pizza is true brick oven and the ingredients were fresh. They have a sofa sitting area near the fireplace that caps your evening. We had bourbons. Perfect evening.”

“Pretty good food but not my favorite presentation or seating arrangements. Expect to be sat within arma reach of other tables and only a single restroom for the whole restaurant.

Food was good but 90% of their menu is tacos and booze which is fine for us taco lovers! They are served with the filling for 2 tacos on top of two tortillas. It is quite difficult to get the second tortilla out from under the other and there is too much filling to go at it as one taco. I just decided to eat it down with a fork and eat a double tortilla single taco.”

“I read reviews that looked like this was a law we should try and so glad we did. I love the ambience, the views and the people are great here . They really treat you kind here . Our food was awesome! I had the catfish and my husband had the flounder , both were awesome and we both had fried shrimp. The cornbread is a nice touch when you sit down. You won’t be disappointed in this place.”

“Food was delicious had the nachos, shrimp, burgers and dessert. Service was exceptional. We had Brooklyn R as our waitress and she was wonderful. She is definitely great at what she does!!”

“it's one of the few places in town I'll spend my money at!!! Emily does amazing work!!! ps. get the breakfast burrito”

“Great atmosphere, kind staff, great beer, fabulous name! Don't miss it!”
