    Gumbo and blackened chicken nachos
    Mike G.

    Stopped in for a well needed happy hour since it was close by. My wife ordered a $6 HH glass of wine and I ordered an old-fashioned with well bourbon, which was old Forrester. There was a $3 up charge for the OF on top of the $6 well bourbon. We then ordered a few items off the happy hour menu, including the duck egg roll (good), shrimp dip (just ok) blackened chicken nachos (good) and a dozen oysters on a half shell (very good). The oysters were very nice and everything else was fine. I might pass on the shrimp dip next time as it was a cold dip and just OK served with some regular crackers. I also ordered a bowl of gumbo, which was hot and very tasty. Overall, we were satisfied and I recommend trying i this place. The happy hour is decent and it's situated at the Marina.

    First time in St Simon's Island and we had lots to choose from. Coastal Kitchen was a fine pick. Nicely done "coastal" ambiance. Service was very quick and friendly. My husband had the chicken dinner and was happy with it. I had Caesar salad and a half pound of leek and eat shrimp. The shrimp were quite large and tasty.

    Five of us went to what used to be Emaline &Hessies years ago. It seemed a bit smaller than remembered, though the bat area was substantial. We got a coveted table by the window with a view of the water, boats and the sunset. We started with an order of oysters, which looked amazing. I was definitely tempted, although I've recently sworn off oysters. Three of our group ordered redfish, two low country style and one Asian influenced. Another ordered a shrimp and scallop pasta that had andouille sausage and sounded New Orleans style. My own order was the scallops with sweet pea risotto over arugula. I absolutely moved mine. The risotto was so creamy and delicious. The scallops were perfectly seared and amazing. It was melt in your mouth great. Every single one of us was raving that it was the best seafood meal they'd had in ages. So I am jealous of my two friends who actually live in SSI and can come back again. LOL, I'll have to visit them again soon for some more Coastal Kitchen.

    Dirty oysters

    Me and a couple friends chose Coastal Kitchen to celebrate a birthday and had a 10/10 experience. Renesha took care of us giving friendly and attentive service ,and she even brought out the yummiest butter pecan pie with a lit candle for our birthday girl. The best view in town and the dirty oysters are a must try: raw oysters served with crema, caviar, shallots, and hot sauce. We had the best dinner thanks to Renesha!

    So delicious in a fresh atmosphere and excellent service. So many scrumptious seafood options from oysters to lobster and crab ravioli. One of our friends is allergic to seafood and they were super mindful to her needs. I highly recommend.

    The service was amazing and i want to start with that. They were quick and friendly and answered all our questions about the menu. we sat outside and it felt nice with a breeze from the water. i ordered the lobster ravioli and i was so excited. unfortunately i really disliked it and when the waitress noticed, she immediately asked if there was something else. I ended up ordering the blackened redfish and it was amazing!!

    THE VIEW

    So great to have Coastal Kitchen back in business. Great food, super bar and an amazing location. The service was excellent and we can't wait to go back again soon. Try it out and you love it.

    Nice place for a lunch. Easy access and lots of parking at this St. Simon's spot. Typical low country menu with an array of sandwiches, salads and entrees. Service was good, prompt and very friendly. $$

    Appetizer to share. Great lobster nachos. Never disappoints. The new outside seating adds options overlooking the Frederica River.

    Had a fantastic dinner at Georgia Sea Grill…read more Calloway was our server and she was absolutely amazing. She not only kept up with all of our shenanigans but gave it right back, which made the experience even more fun. Attentive, personable, and just a great vibe all around. We started with peach martinis (highly recommend) along with the fried okra, crab soup, wedge salad, and beet salad. Everything was fresh and full of flavor--great way to kick off the meal. For the main course we tried the flounder prepared a few different ways--one fried, one pan-seared, and one bronzed--and each one was fantastic. And then two orders of scallops which were incredibly buttery and cooked perfectly. We wrapped it all up with a slice of Georgia pecan pie that was the perfect sweet ending. Great food, great service, and a really fun night. We'll definitely be back.

We started with the crab soup and beet salad. Both were fresh and delicious. We got the half dozen oysters which were briny and sweet. My husband had the flounder special and I ordered the bacon poached salmon. Delightful. For dessert we had the chocolate coconut pie and I had the Italian coffee. That coffee? More amaretto than java--yum!! It was a great meal sprinkled with the charm of an excellent server.

This place is a great value for all the seafood you are getting. My party of 4 split two shrimp dinners and we were all stuffed at the end, struggling to finish it all. They give you some shrimp to try when you get there which is a nice touch. It helped us figure out what we wanted. We needed up getting 1 shrimp dinners with the shrimp fried, and 1 shrimp dinner with the shrimp broiled. The fried ones were eh, not bad but nothing special. However, the broiled with butter ones were spectacular. If you don't like a TON of butter, you can ask for it on the side. We didn't know about this hack until after and I wish we had done it. Whatever you get here, you have to try the hush puppies!! The best hush puppies I've ever had. They also give you a soap bath for your hands after which is a very nice touch, as your hands get really dirty from all the butter.
