Met an old friend of mine here for dinner. We made a reservation online with no issues. It surprisingly was not very busy which was good - we sat outside in the porch area with one other set of guests. There were more people inside, which had a nice fun vibe. The outside seating area was very nice and cozy. They had cute stringed lights set up, some fans for when it is hot, and heat flames - not sure if the flames were heaters or decor only, but my guess would be they actually work (we sat on the side closer to the building so not next to them, thankfully as I actually got a little hot). We had a nice young woman for our server who was very attentive and sweet. She answered our questions, specifically the difference between the "Tacos" and "Grilled Tacos" - for the record, it has nothing to do with the meat (like grilled chicken vs fried) and everything to do with the taco style - meaning corn or flour, and grilled like a panini or regular style. We had some drinks - margarita, sangria, and a moscow mule; all great! We ordered the cornbread for the table. It was a little different from your typical cornbread - it had jalapeños in it but wasn't too spicy and was more like grilled pieces than baked. And they were cut up into triangular shapes. Not as sweet as some other cornbreads and had like a chipotle dipping sauce. For our meals, we had the Trippy Taco bowl, mix and match regular tacos chicken and steak, and a burger. The entrees came out quickly, great presentation, and as expected. The tacos and burger came with fries (shoe-string) and they were quite delicious - and the salad had a nice amount of tortilla chip strips on top. It's an interesting mix of american and mexican, done tastefully. The menu had enough options without being too overwhelming. read more

Came here for the first time for late lunch. Menu was extensive with burgers and tacos. Opted for a fish taco, shrimp taco, and side of rice. Was really good and would recommend this place again for a tasty and reasonable meal. Service was very pleasant. read more

We really enjoyed our meal at Chow Daddy's. Our party of three had the guacamole to start, which was great, nice and fresh. I had the rice bowl with fish, which was great, blackened mahi mahi with rice, black beans, slaw, and corn relish, and really, it was delicious. The slaw of the day was cabbage and kale with a little mint, and it was great, a real treat. My husband had a burger that was perfectly cooked, exactly what he asked for (medium rare). Our friend had a shrimp taco and sweet potato fries, and she said it was good - she ate it all, so it must have been pretty decent :). We all agreed we'd come back sometime! It was an excellent meal. Also our server was lovely, polite and friendly. read more

I made a review a year ago, and have returned to update! We got the chips and queso again and it was still delicious. This time I got the avocado bowl and added pulled chicken. These flavors go so well together! I think that will be my order from now on. Also the servers were so nice. I mentioned to one that I loved his bracelet and he pulled off a silly band and gave it to me!! Made my entire day. read more

So for quite a few years I've passed this place while driving down 278 and a couple of weeks ago Kat & I went there for church lunch. It wasn't bad! The staff were friendly and helpful, and our orders came out quite quickly. I heard mixed reviews on their tacos, so we both opted for bowls, as we are kinda trying to eat a little better these days. The price point was a little stiff, but man, our dishes were fresh, well portioned and very tasty. This won't be a regular stop for us, but we will definitely be back again. read more

Well, a little bit expensive, but everybody is very nice. The server was very attentive as well. They do however no longer serve lunch so a heads up there. The burgers and salads were very good. Chow daddys is good place to unwind and take a break. Will be coming back. Love the ambiance. read more

This was an amazing find on our way home from Hilton head. We ordered the corn dip as an appetizer and it was some of the best that we've had. But it's just a very small portion not much to share for a table of three. I also had the fried chicken bun, which was delicious, but there really was a lot going on with it, pimento cheese, slaw, pickles, etc. I ended up taking most of it off the bun. By the time we left, every table was full. read more

Food is good. Service is good too. The menu is unique they have bowls, and you can make these bows anyway you like. I had the avacodo bowl. This came with arugula, avocados, with mango and corn salsa. It was very refreshing light and healthy. I would order this again. The ranch dressing was OK. Next time I'll order it with Italian dressing or something less viscous. They have a nice outdoor patio and a full bar. read more

They have an amazing burger that's juicy and worth trying but don't upgrade to the sweet potato fries, they are an extra charge and the restaurant doesn't have any special cinnamon butter to complement them. One in our party had the chicken sandwich which looked amazing and they said it tasted really good. My husband was going to order a burger, but changed his mind when they said they don't have any sliced tomato for the hamburger. read more

Food is way overpriced. It cost me $23 plus tip for lunch the burger was $18 should have been $14 or $15. Service was great food was hot, burger was mediocre fries weren't the greatest. A taste for older people who don't care for flavor." Like most of Bluffton ". I won't be back. read more

On 8/18/25 my wife and I went to Chow Daddy's at about 4 PM. We were greeted by the receptionist as she opened the door for us. We were quickly seated and served drinks very fast. The music was a bit high and they turned it down on our request. The waiter was very nice and kept our drinks full all the time. Service was amazing and the whole experience wonderful. Food was terrific and timing between appetizers and the meal was perfect. We went here two yews ago and everything was horrible. The service did not exist and the food was bad. I was reluctant to go again, but my wife said give them another chance. It was Monday and places open were limited. Glad we took the chance we will be back soon. read more

New to area. Stopped by chow daddy's a couple times, but they are only open for dinner. Was able to go earlier this week after work and we all had burgers. The burgers were delicious! Perfectly seasoned and cooked and interesting flavor combos. Will definitely be back to try the bowls and tacos! read more

Burgers were great. We tried the chow daddy burger & the bacon cheeseburger. Excellent service. I would def return.

$17 for a gambit that is anything but juicy is ridiculous , burger falls apart from being dry and they never get medium rare correct

Corn and chip appetizer and cornbread kicked off the meal really well. We got mahi, steak, mushroom and shrimp tacos. The red sauce on them was delicious. Will definitely come back. We hear the burgers are amazing but we leave that for next time. read more

Chow Daddy's - Mahi taco - Tacos Near Me - Bluffton, South Carolina

Stopped here on our way into HHI from out of town after a long drive with lots of traffic. Kids were starving, and this place had great reviews. Had a good meal, good experience overall. However, on our way out we noticed the American flag with the thin blue line flying on the side of the restaurant. Now some people might not notice this, or know what it means. But this flag has ties to white nationalism and racism. It was popularized as a retort to the Black Lives Matter movement, basically excusing police violence against black people. So while their food was quite good, flying this flag outside their establishment sends a symbol to patrons that black people or people of color *may* not be as welcome. And in my opinion, no meal is so good that I'm willing to patronize a place that doesn't welcome "all." read more

Place is awesome!! Greeted first minute we came in. Then the general manager walked us to our table outside on the patio. Very friendly and happy man. We had two dogs, had a great waitress Sam and everything was perfect. Being here for Christmas week is a bonus. Having a dog friendly, extra friendly staff is fabulous!! Manager hooked up the heater for my cold teen boys, we had chips and guacamole which was yummy. Service was fast, place was clean and every person who worked there had a smile on their face!! I had the cheeseburger, son had the fish tacos, and everything was awesome. Full bar, great service, great prices and great service. 2 thumbs up!! Will for surely be back in the summer time to visit. read more

The so-called owner of this restaurant replied to my comment on Google stated that I had lied about my experience. Pictures are worth 1000 words, I will let the people be the judge and jury do these look like $10.00 & $12.00 tacos to you? Guess what? You only get 1 read more

Went to Chow Daddy's for a late lunch around 4 pm yesterday. First time trying it out. I had a smoked chicken and spicy shrimp taco with fries and sweet tea. My wife had an avocado salad. Salad was quite large with lots of different veggies. Tacos came with some great sauces and cole slaw on them. Refills on sweet tea came without asking. Waiter was pleasant and attentive. We ate outside because we had our little dog with us on a leash. He even brought a bowl of water for the dog. Only downside was traffic noise from Route 278 and patio is pretty basic. Food and service were great. read more

I am still tasting all the flavors from our dinner here! We had the nachos as an appetizer! Absolutely delicious! Then my mom and I shared the fish bowl, which was packed with so many different items! The trigger fish, the slaw, the rice, black beans and corn! My dad had the chopped salad with chicken. I can only imagine what the other menu items taste like! I very much recommend coming here! read more

Great service and great food! Emma was a great server. Definitely recommend the burgers. Love the decor!

We always enjoy this restaurant at lunch time. Unfortunately it's not open for lunch anymore.

We had Seth and Brittany as our servers! They were both amazing and always made sure we were set! We are somewhat new to the area, but this place by far has been the best restaurant we've been to out here. Everything was delicious! We had the nacho starter and we each got burgers. They were soo good and the fries were perfectly cooked! Well definitely be back! read more

Had an amazing dinner out with girlfriends sitting on the patio. London is an amazing server very kind and attentive. 10/10 would recommend.

Great upbeat music ! Loved the corn appetizer ( chips were light and fresh). Delicious grilled shrimp and steak tacos. The tortilla shells on the tacos were crispy and buttery at the same time. We will be back! read more

We have passed this place many times without stopping. We tried it today and will definitely be back! We had grilled chicken tacos and the BBQ mushroom tacos. Both were phenomenal! The chicken tacos were in grilled tortillas which were nicely crisp. The mushroom tacos had a sweet heat - not too spicy but just the right amount of heat. Both tacos had delicious slaw. The french fries were hot and seasoned well. The service were really good - Jordan k was our server. She was sweet, attentive, and made good recommendations. The iced tea tasted good and was very refreshing. The general manager was there helping to train a new employee. He was continually checking on the patrons ensuring everyone had what they needed. We had a great experience. read more

The food choices and quality are wonderful! Mom was so pleased with her burger, she couldn't stop after she'd already filled up. (Big compliments to the chef!) My (gluten-free, dairy-free, & vegan) mushroom tacos were incredibly delicious! Thank you, Emma, for your fantastic service & smiling face!!! read more

Meghann did a great job with our order and the tacos, shrimp hot bowl and corn bread was delicious. Put Chow Daddy's on your list to get good food and service!! read more

Went in for a drink at the bar. Kat was there behind the counter and she was great. Got me a drink she saw online and i wasn't disappointed. Also will add I am celiac and they had gluten free buns for their burgers and it was delicious. The bread however would fall apart due to it being gluten free and flimsy as all gluten free bread is. All in all i will definitely be going back read more

Good food and great service. Really enjoyed the Cajun shrimp taco and the mahi taco. Two local craft brews were on tap and both were excellent. read more
