Thanks again Facebook friends for the many recommendations below on where to go for good food on Hilton Head Island!
So far, we’ve been to…
I had Greek salad and small cup of lentil soup–delish. I sampled Roberts Gyro plate and it too, was very good. The lamb was seasoned just right, the beans crisp and the potatoes served authentic Greek style. Marianna and Emma had just the right size pita pizzas. Fresh toppings. Sam had a Gyro wrap. He ate half at the restaurant, then scarfed the rest down yesterday for a snack. We sampled the baklava with shredded phyllo and it, too, was fantabulous. The service was genuine. Our waiter sounded like he was fresh off the boat from Santorini. Delightful.
Kenny B’s Cajun Seafood Hut
Seemed like we were headed into a Chinese take out place. Kenny B’s is small, but had enough room for the 8 of us. Saw two people from Augusta, so figured this must be a good place. I had crab cake with a generous salad. Robert had VooDoo pasta which I don’t think he could finish because the portion was so large. Sam had shrimp and grits. He said it was a bit spicy, but he lapped up that grits! Emma almost finished her grilled chicken po boy, and Marianna had a cajun grilled taco.Best thing? The bill was not too painful!
The Red Fish website is top notch. I made reservations here because we had 6 adults, and the impression from the website made it seem as if they would be crazy busy. The menu revealed some pricey menu items so we decided to make this an adult night out. We had reservations for 7:15p, arrived about 7:30 and there was no wait for our table. Trendy looking place and very friendly staff. I ordered the blue cheese salad and the shrimp spring rolls. Â Both very tasty. Robert had flounder which he said was OK. Our guests split the lobster and shrimp burger. Good call since it was huge. Another guest ordered the flounder which he finished. Â I don’t think this is a place to go for value, but if you are looking for a wow-zer wine list, local artisan jewelry, and some trendy menu items, then by all means give it a shot.
Tonight it’s Mellow Mushroom. We decided to let our friends pick their place tonight. The kids will enjoy a night out, and the parents a cheap date.
We have 3 nights left here. Can it be?? I still want to try Sante Fe and go to Skull Creek Boathouse for some finger swelling seafood. Back on track next week. Eating tiny pumpernickel sammiches for lunch accompanied by protein chips…YUM>
see you soon.
