Southern Restaurants near Saint Helena Island

“My wife and I have eaten at the Beach Club a few times in the last few months and the food has always been very good. We have had the Oyster Stew, the Spring Salad, the Filet Mignon, the Seafood Risotto and the Blackened Mahi Mahi. All were delicious and were decent sized portions. Our server was very nice and prompt with our order.We do think that the resort should put some money into the ambiance because there is very little. When it is dark out you would barely know you were at a beach restaurant. It also does not feel very fancy considering the prices of the entrees. Some wall decorations and a more beachy theme would help a lot. We are very glad there is a second option for a good dinner on the island but it can be improved.“

“Food was very good. We would probably rate a 4.5 if we could. I had duck, my partner had Mahi. Flavors were interesting and cooked to perfection. We rarely give a 5 so this is a great rating. Portion size was perfect. Glad we tried the place during our stay here. Acoustics make the restaurant a bit loud. Nicely we were seated at a table that was a bit quieter. Decorating, colors are very esthetically pleasing and calming. It is worth you visiting.“

““Hidden” gem in Beaufort. Chef takes the time to make every dish beyond expectations. The raw beef is the best tartare I’ve had and the spicy gnocchi should be illegal it’s so addictive. Who knew chocolate and olive oil were a match made in heaven.“

“Lovely little restaurant with truly well cooked chicken. I have tried the tenders, a chicken sandwich, and the Thai fried rice with grilled chicken, and it is a wonder to be had in your mouth as the flavor dances across your taste goblets. Highly recommend to locals and passerby alike!“

“This is a very mixed review.My wife and I had lunch at this restaurant Friday, February 16th ( our 22nd wedding anniversary),I had the shrimp Poboy. My wife had the fried fish Poboy. We both had a mixed greens salad.The fish and the shrimp in both dishes were very good, however. The crispy fish in my wife's poboy was drowned in condiment and quickly became soggy. The baguettes were not done very well.They were cold and looked and tasted uncooked. The two dishes would have been nearly perfect if the kitchen staff had taken the time to toast the baguettes( we were seated at 11am and were one of the first tables to order)First...the women's restroom had not been cleaned ( sink wet, paper towel on floor, toilet paper still in toilet) per my wife. Our server, though friendly was forgetful and inattentive, passing by our table several times and ignoring us right after checking with th table immediately behind ours, also forgetting items in our order. We have dined here previously the food and service were excellent during those visits. I did not penalize our server (tip) for the poor service and spotty food quality, that said.... the view from our table was still very beautiful.“
