Love this place! Food was delicious. The chef and waitress were very friendly and service was excellent. We loved visiting with them. I would definitely go back if in the area again. We had gumbo, red rice, collards, mac and cheese, sweet potato pie, and peach cobbler. The food was different and better than I expected.

Don't miss out on this local gem outside Beaufort on the way to Hunting Island! Gullah Grub Restaurant features lowcountry cooking at its finest prepared in the traditions of the Gullah people living along Atlantic coastal regions. The building is super charming and filled with articles, photographs, and artwork related to the owners, Bill & Sara Green, and their mission to serve locally sourced organic foods. Bill was actually there and prepared our meals. I tried the chicken gumbo with a side of rice - she got the BBQ chicken lunch with potato salad and an extra side of mac-n-cheese. Of all these items, my favorite, by far, was the chicken gumbo - super thick and flavorful with a hint of smokiness - EXCELLENT! I mixed the rice with it and it was perfection. Next time I'll try the shrimp gumbo. My second favorite item was the potato salad - seriously, the best I've ever had. Drinks were very good (I preferred the lemonade over the sweet tea). Corn bread is complimentary at the start - very tasty! We had room for a little dessert, so we asked our server for her recommendation - sweet potato pie or peach cobbler. The pie was her favorite, and it did not disappoint! We really felt like family in this restaurant, and the food was great. You must try this place if you're in the Beaufort area!

The host was wonderful, the atmosphere was wonderful but.... I ordered the fried shrimp with potato salad and the shrimp was the size of my little finger like 9 of them, very small and overcooked and 2 tablespoons of potato salad for 14.99... I was still hungry when I left.. very disappointed in the portions for that price..👎 and we always try to support local. This was a wastee of time to eat there.

We really enjoyed our lunch here. The fried shark with potato salad was excellent. My wife had the vegetable plate that was also very good.
We were able to talk with our waitress and chef. Both were very kind and knowledgeable. We learned that vegetables were from organic farm of owner. Also the restaurant is active in the community with cultural activities for children.
Also I must mention the peach cobbler that was delicious.

I went here a week ago with my son and his family. It was a bad experience. The waitress took our orders and seemed bothered by us being there. We got our food with no silverware to eat. We asked two different staff. Our food was good but very small portions. They never came to see if we needed drink refills. The people around us were being served properly. We were the only white people in there so it made us feel like it was because we where white. We where excited to try this restaurant, and left sad and disappointed 😞
