“We loved this place! We made a reservation ahead of time, then the two of us went with our toddler. It was very kid-friendly and had a kids' menu with lots of great options (my guy LOVED his alfredo pasta).The drinks were spectacular – beautifully made and unique! Kudos to the bartender.We shared the she crab soup and the coconut shrimp as appetizers, both of which were impeccable. I got the Margherita flatbread (yum!) and my husband got a basket with shrimp, flounder, and crab cakes. Everything was delicious.The view of the water was excellent and the environment was lovely. I highly recommend Morgan River Grill!Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. Great kids menu, not at all stuffy, and a playground right outside the restaurant.“

“Chef Bill has got it going on! The staff at Gullah Grub was simply amazing: attentive and welcoming. The menu is on the small side, but that is because everything is prepared fresh with in-season ingredients--a core aspect of Gullah Geechee life on the island. Our spread included shrimp gumbo, fish and shrimp, mac and cheese, and lima beans. Although we have no confirmed roots on the island, the food was like a love note from our dearly departed grandmothers. The flavors are simple but powerful, letting the food be the dominant voice. My shrimp was the sweetest and most tender I've had in years. The gumbo is not like your Louisiana gumbo. This one has a tomato stew base. The added shrimp was a nice ornament, but not needed. The chicken and veggies in the gumbo were the stars of that dish. Adding a few spoonfuls of red rice sent it over the top. The red rice, though! Smokey and tender. It is a great vehicle for gravy and sauces. Mine was gone too soon. Each dish is served with your choice of rice, a seasonal vegetable, and a hearty scoop of potato salad. The potato salad was tender and starchy, mildly seasoned. It was almost a palate cleanser. I found I took a taste after a bite of something spicy. Our veg was lima beans. We were served a generous bowl. Honestly that with the rice would have been a more than satisfying meal. The beans were so tender but still had bite. They were smokey with a thick gravy. The flavor is hard to describe, probably because I haven't had fresh lima beans before. It was a wonderful experience. Then there was the mac-n-cheese. You're served a hearty, peppery slice of baked macaroni. The noodles are were perfect, with a thick and cheesey top. We took a couple of slices of sweet potato pie home with us, but it is served warm and smelling of cinnamon and sugar. The sugar, though is natural. This is not a very sweet sweet potato pie. It is definitely one of the thickest slices of sweet potato pie I've ever had. Chunks of potatoes can be seen, in addition to the spices. The pie is fresh, simple, creamy, and so eatable. There isn't a lot of crust , but it is sturdy, like you could carry the slice in your hand and eat this on the go. It would make a nice snack because it isn't cloyingly sweet like a lot of desserts. We added a dollop of vanilla ice cream to ours when we were back at the hotel. That modification sent the pie over the top!Gullah Grub was a joyful dining experience from the brightly painted walls adorned with memorabilia from Chef Bill's life to the singing that drifted our way from the kitchen. It felt like home. We are so grateful. The staff gave us advice on sites to visit in the area while incorporating some personal family history into their tips. This has been a truly memorable experience. 10000000:10 will return.Parking: Parking is along the side and behind the building, no real signage but plentiful.“
