The fried shrimp appetizer.

Waiter/service was ok, food was ok and price was ok. Waiter did not tell us about the lunch specials. I ordered the fried shrimp (what Iguanas is known for) appetizer and onion rings which counted as a side. My biggest disappointment was that the portion size was underwhelming- 6 pieces of small to medium sized fried shrimp for $12.99. Given the size of shrimp 8-10 pieces would have been appropriate. Other meals ordered by my party were more generous but just average in taste. I would rate iguanas with 2.5 stars if the rating system allowedbest With all of the restaurant choices on the island I doubt I will be back to iguanas.

One of the few places open on Christmas Day for dinner. The restaurant was fully decorated for Christmas inside and out. They even make it snow every few minutes. The service was friendly and very good. The dinners all come hush puppies, and one side. I got the fired shrimp and fries. The shrimp were good size, and lightly coated. My wife had the clams and said they were good and well seasoned. My daughter had the mahi and the shrimp combo. Nice size piece of fish and cooked just right.

Complimentary ice cream

Enjoy a delicious flounder dinner today. It was seasoned to perfection, with the perfect crisp. Service was wonderful, the manage even came by our table to greet us. The ambiance was pleasant.

Absolutely a MUST when at St Simons! At the pier & SUPER quaint! Great prices, very friendly staff, DELICIOUS food & a great patio to watch the world go round. I believe I need to come back every day through the rest of our visit to the island.

While it's an interesting place and the staff is friendly the food was just so/so. The raw oysters were medium size and not shucked properly. The crab bisque soup very thick but somewhat tasteless. The shrimp platters were ok but the po boy was good. The onion rings while fresh were just warm and soggy. I think the best part is the feee soft serve ice cream at the end.

Shrimp scampi
Debbie M.

We ended up going here twice during our stay. The first time our server was Jade. She was great. They have a nice selection of beer and we tried a few. All were good but our favorite was the Harps UFO. Entrees were Calamari, Coconut Shrimp, shrimp scampi, shrimp dinner, BLT and Fish sandwich. All excellent. It's a cute place with colorful decor. The seats could be more comfortable but that's fine. Oh and for dessert- free ice cream.

We come here for lunch every Georgia Florida football weekend. Great fresh seafood and large menu including a separate gluten free menu. Friendly fast service. Nice outdoor seating. Yummy cocktails.

We were looking for a light lunch in St. Simon's before heading out to Jekyll and Florida. Iquanas fit the bill. Nice cold ice tea and the shrimp sampler with a side salad and coleslaw was delicious. The buffalo shrimp were just zippy enough. Friendly and efficient service. Enjoyable sitting out on the patio watching folks walk by. Plus the bonus of complimentary soft serve ice cream after the meal was perfect way to end lunch.

Probably some of the best brunch we've had during our visit in St.. Simons Island, GA! Their Philly…read morecheesesteaks are like no other! Also - their all you can eat breakfast and lunch deal is unbeatable for breakfast it's $12.99 and their lunch is $16.99 sodas and juices included with your entree of choice! Their other best brunch option was the honey butter chicken biscuit and this easily can feed 3 people! I was highly impressed and I'll definitely be back! The owners are just the sweetest thing! It's a mom and pop shop and I had the best customer service. This is definitely a diner vibe and lowkey relaxed. No dress code needed post beach! I cannot recommend this spot more!

Came here for dinner on a Sunday night. Chubs is a retro…read morediner that has a varied menu. They serve breakfast all day, have a daily special , sandwiches, salad and burgers. The tables were clean and were cleaned quickly when tables were empty. Very helpful, friendly staff here. Between the decor and the staff it's like stepping back in time to the good ole days. I decided on breakfast with eggs, bacon, grits and a biscuit. When I saw the huge biscuit I knew right away it was homemade. Wonderful. I could only eat half and brought the rest home. I asked for the bacon to be crispy and it was!! There is dessert menu on the table. I advise you to pay attention. I asked about the gooey bars.....they had some with chocolate chips but I asked if they made them plain. Ethan went in the back and got one for me! That's good old fashioned customer service! They make these bars in house and have different flavors....some fruit ones, a few with nuts, etc. I loved the plain one....very rich. I was so full I had to bring most of it home with me, but I am so glad I tried it. I advise checking out this family run diner. It's one of those hidden gems!
