Placed a to-go order because it is close to a new office location, but $17 for 6 oz. of gumbo and 4 oz. of white rice as the lunch special, ummm...NO! I expect more for my money. Sorry, maybe a sit down meal would be better, but not inclined to try based on my experience. read more

Gets very busy during lunch as I do not believe there are a lot of selections around. Service is fast and friendly and food is okay - the fish tacos were good. Draft beer is pricey for a small mug. Restaurant offers nice views of Bluff Creek. read more

When I tell you this place has the best crab legs ever. I love that the atmosphere in this restaurant is so warming and inviting. My husband and I find ourselves going at least twice a week. Well worth the money. read more

Just recently moved to the area. Have been to Marsh Side twice. Love the food, the staff if great, and I found the best beer I've ever had. Piedmont Brewery, Satisfied. Best is the world. The grouper is exceptional. Fun place to eat. read more

Would have given -5 if possible. We arrived mid afternoon to an almost empty restaurant. We placed order and waitress was very appeasing. However when food arrived portions for an adult plate were more so for a toddler. We asked for it to be redone and waitress advise no problem. Meal was brought out 2nd time and looked like the same food was just manipulated on the plate - except that now the bread was burnt, lettuce was hot and tomatoes were missing. Over all this was a horrible experience for a very pricey bill. Manager was reluctant to speak with me despite knowing that there was an issue. when she did approach was all attitude and lacked basic communication skills to deal with public. Do NOT recommend this place to anyone. read more

Loved the grilled scallops and shrimp really fresh and juicy. The location is good. The staff was very good at making sure we were good. read more

Food is fine, service was great, atmosphere was comfortable and clean. Bar has your basics.

Had some family come to town to visit my Mother. Everyone's stressed because she's in CCU - so we wanted some place quick and close - this fit the bill. Among us - we had grouper baskets (5 pieces with 1 side - both elected beer battered spuds), catfish basket (server misunderstood and brought grouper), buffalo wings, and 'boneless' buffalo wings. The food was okay. The server was okay. The view of the marsh was nice and provided a lovely photo opportunity. Would I go back - yes - to try the drinks - but I'd probably stick with a burger or wings. Nothing really knocked my socks off - but while I certainly have experienced better - "2 stars / meh - I've experienced better" seems harsh . . . read more

One of the best dining experiences I have had down here, the service was amazing, so was the food, looking out onto the marsh was great, amazing overall 11/10 read more

Crab stew was fantastic and the fried seafood was very good too. Lightly fried. Very nice view. Server was not too friendly but certainly not rude. Food was delivered quickly and was hit. I would come back. read more

10-3-23. Server ignored us for 15 minutes. Me and the Mrs went in just after lunch time. Hostess sat us after just a few minutes and got us our drinks. Waitress saw us and looked at us a couple times but never came to the table to get our order. We waited just over 15 minutes after getting our drinks but she never came to our table. We got up and walked out. She could have at least acknowledged us, it wasn't that busy. read more

Do not come to this restaurant for food. Come For the drinks and view off the back deck that's it. If your hungry for seafood you can get better service and food at Red Lobster or Captain D's. 6:30pm: We called and put our name on the waitlist at. It was a 40min wait for seating. We arrived in at 7:15pm then proceeded to wait until 7:45 for our table. It was completely chaotic no one knew what the other was doing. 7:50pm: When we finely sat - our drinks and order was taken. . We sat and sat , waited saw people get seated after us; order their food; eat it; and leave. 8:15pm We got salad and soup appetizer. 8:20pm: We asked the waitress what the hold up was. She responded kitchen is very busy and everyones food is behind. 8:30: 2 kids meals finally came out. 8:45pm We waited longer. Asked for a manager , she apologized and said our food was going to be comped. 9:05pm Our food was out. We got the bill they "comped" $15. Our bill was $105. Frustrated and tired we just left manager was not in site anywhere. read more

Wow, having a great meal in the middle of a swamp in the Golden Isles area of Georgia. Who knew this was even possible? I love finding different places, and everything about Marshside was that and more. I had the cold shrimp and hot deep fried mushrooms followed by Key Lime deliciousness. Great fun place. read more

Was great food. Fresh seafood!! The fried and blackened shrimp were great. And a beautiful view as well. Great waitress.

Lunch was great! The bartender was working her tail off. The homemade dressing were amazing. I'd recommend this place over and over

Disappointed. Ordered the fish basket. Little pieces of fish with absolutely no flavor. Also had to wait for the waitress to pass by to get tarter sauce. The whole table was done eating and my daughter didn't even get her salad. When we asked the waitress she was just like oh ok. The only thing good was the spuds. Poor service poor food. read more

Located on the marsh, cool view, interior is sorta dark. Start by saying everyone was super friendly and our service was great although they were slammed. We had fish sandwiches. One fried and one blackened, both had lettuce and tomato and a handful of melted cheese on top. No sauce but given tartar and ketchup. Cocktail sauce was actually really good, not typical bottled. The fried was better than the blackened, it held up better with the bun. I had beer battered chips that I think were called spuds. They had a family style type menu offering with traditional southern sides. read more

Delicious take out fried seafood. Definitely fills the craving for fried oysters, scallops and shrimp. Family got all three. Sides are great as well. Highly recommend. read more

I am not sure if we caught this restaurant at a bad time or what but the food was not good! My fish was greasy and the catfish tasted like the had soaked in mud! A person at the table got a steak and it was very stringy! The service was fair and an extremely long wait for a table! I doubt we will give it another chance! read more

Our server was excellent and the food was very good. We sat outside on a rainy day and still had a great time.

The view out the back was nice but the food was mediocre. I ended up getting food to go. I ordered a salmon salad for $15, which had 1 slice of cucumber and 1 slice of tomato, and a bed of mixed lettuce. The salmon was a good size and pretty filling for dinner. But still, for $15? Meh. Also while I was at the bar, I noticed the crowd was all over 60. Don't go there looking for a date. Ha ha! read more

What a gigantic rip-off. The drinks were tiny and mediocre. The food was beyond horrible. My daughter and I each ordered the crab soup. It was like a thick pasty roux with a little bit of crab. Inedible. The salads were basically bagged iceberg lettuce with one cherry tomato and one cucumber slice. My tomato was black on the inside. (It also clearly states on the menu that there is an upcharge for extra sauces, dressing, and refills-wow.) We orded the boiled shrimp, which was okay, but not great. Over $100.00 with tip for crappy, mediocre food that, except for the shrimp, was Inedible. Don't bother. read more

I wasn't real hungry but I had a craving for a Bloody Mary and a shrimp cocktail, so Marshside it was! The shrimp was outstanding, cooked to perfection with a little cocktail sauce on the side (although it was a little hotter (too much Horseradish for my taste) than I like. The Bloody Mary was great, stronger than expected, but very good. I came expecting to be underwhelmed and left overwhelmed. The waitresses, Amanda and Tori, were very pleasant and service oriented! read more

It was very clear from the moment I walked in that this is where the locals of Brunswick go, and it was not hard to see why! Our waitress had worked for the restaurant for over 20 years, which tells you a lot about the pride they put into their business and their employees. The food was absolutely spectacular. I wish I was in town for longer so I could have gone back! read more

Quick stop on our way north. Easy comfortable place. Brunswick stew was yummy and a bit spicy for my taste. Ate it all anyway. Fish sandwich was great and I would get without cheese next time. The spuds were good with the shrimp bowl sauce. Shrimp bowl we delish. Lots of plump shrimp. Overall a great experience. read more

Busy place and can expect a wait most times. That being said, there is a reason it is busy. Food was great and service was awesome. Will be back. read more

This is a great place, it has a pub kind of feel to it. There was a long wait so we found a place at the bar. The service and food was very good. read more

Spot on! Try the Grouper Basket! Great atmosphere for meeting friends or dining with family. And they have Mt. Gay Rum, for the sailors out there! Can't wait to go again! read more

Rain falling, fresh magnolia blooming. Weekday afternoon, just finished zooming. I check delivery options from door dash to post mates. Nothing sounds as good as a fresh hot plate. Off 17 I know where I'm going. So much excitement and my hunger growing. I sit at the bar everything seems just right, hey Sam I say, I'll take a Miller lite. As my app is put in I find what I love. A tall cold one with hen fingers and spuds. With the perfect meal down, I say my goodbyes. Until next time Marshside happy tears down my eyes. read more

Not a weak link! We had a late lunch on a Monday. I ordered shrimp tacos with spuds and my husband a Mahi sandwich with cole slaw. The food was fabulous! It arrived hot with everything as we asked - on the side etc. Our opinion is the Marshside Grill is going a great job! read more

We went to Jekyl for a weekend and looked everywhere for a good seafood place to eat. We drove by Marshside Grill on way to St Simons and didnt stop because it looked a lil shady on the outside. St Simons was crowded so we left and was so hungry we stopped at the Grill. It was delicious! And they were conscience of covid and staff was wonderful. Best seafood my husband and i ever had and i lived in Va Beach for 4 years. We going back to Brunswick just to go wat at Marshside Grill. Well worth the trip. read more

Read the reviews and don't understand why it was rated 3.5 stars. I think it deserves a 4. My mom and I wanted to try local seafood after a day at the beach (Jekyll Island). I read about this place and really liked their menu selection. Located outside of Jekyll Island close to the Sidney Lanier Bridge (approximately 2 miles). We had a late lunch so we were seated right away. Love the view on the deck which overlooks the marshy wildlife land. Too bad it was too hot to dine outdoors (95 degrees and humid). Our server got our drink order right away. She asked if we needed any help with the menu which I thought was nice and helpful. I got Sweetwater on tap and Bass in a bottle. I also noticed that they are certified "Wild Georgia Shrimp". I started off with the House Salad with Parmesan Peppercorn dressing (and my mom did the same). My mom also got the crab stew (soup). For dinner I got the Grilled Fish Tacos which had a spicy sauce in a 6 inch tortilla with wasabi coleslaw (you get two tacos) and my side was the spuds (sliced potatoes which is coated and fried, very tasty). My mom got the Shrimp Quesadilla (included grilled shrimp, cheese with a side of sour cream and salsa). We got our food and really enjoyed all of it!! My mom raved about her shrimp quesadilla and soup. She mentioned that the seafood was fresh and cooked just right. I enjoyed my fish tacos. Has great flavor and love the spicy kick of the wasabi sauce. Food was hot and did not have to wait long. Service was excellent, restaurant is very open/clean, and bathrooms clean. Pricing is reasonable for seafood. I read that they also do a Japanese Hibachi Grill nightly and have live bands. I had a great experience and would return read more

I am conflicted trying to decide if this is a 3 or a 4. I came in with a group of 14 people on a Friday night, expecting to wait for a good hour or so but ended up waiting so much longer even though we were initially told about 30 minutes. Luckily, the patio area provided a gorgeous view and a live band helped fill the air with a pretty awesome playlist. In total, we probably waited nearly 2 hours for a table. Once we sat down it took another 20 mins just to get water and another 30 mins for our food. But I overheard a couple complaining near us that they waited 2.5 hours as well so it does seem to be a normal thing.The Brunswick stew was probably the best thing I had. It almost tasted like a pulled pork stew and had tons of fresh vegetables and a few dashes of tabasco made it taste even better. The crab stew, on the other hand, didn't live up to its name. It was thicker than a New England clam chowder and was gloopy without a whole lot of taste. My fish for my fish of the day sandwich was incredibly fresh but I was disappointed in the bun. It tasted like a bun you would get from Wal-mart and just didn't hold up to the awesome filet. Overall, the food was pretty good and the atmosphere was really nice but the wait was just outrageous. I would definitely recommend this spot if you aren't in any type of rush. read more

So I just called (yes....called... I didn't even get a chance to make it in the door) at 9:20 p.m. and was told that the kitchen was closed. However the closing time listed is 10:00 p.m. I asked to speak with the manager and he tried to justify the reason why the kitchen is closed and customers aren't able to order food when they are open.... Basically stating that they do not want to pay the kitchen staff if they are slow and that typically on their slow days (Sunday & Monday) they will close the kitchen around 8-8:30 so that the kitchen staff can clean up and get out of there..... I cannot be the only person who thinks something is wrong with this. I informed the manager of the closing time listed on Yelp & he seemed surprised & stated that he will take that down, but I'm confused because why would you not know what is listed regarding your place of employment and you are a manager?? I'm very disappointed how this was handled. Needless to say, I will not patronize with this business. Maybe someone should do a better job in how they are portrayed and advertised. It is now 9:42 p.m. and I could have ordered my food and picked it up by now. This is very misleading and once again very disappointing! I'm beginning to think customers are second and that great customer service is becoming extinct. read more

Coworkers decided to get lunch from here. I wanted some seafood but nothing heavy. I had the Po' Boy fried shrimp...plenty of shrimp and also tasty. The fries could have been better. I should have rolled with a coworkers suggestion and got the spuds. read more

I'll start by saying our waitress and any other staff we interacted with was fantastic! The food however was not. Also went to the bathroom and there was water dripping on my head from a ceiling leak. It just didn't feel very clean. read more

My husband and I sat outside last Wednesday for a late lunch on our way to Jeykll Island. There was no wait and just a few other occupied tables at 2:30PM. We got the blackened shrimp cocktail as an app and I ordered grilled chicken fingers. Husband ordered alfredo pasta with blackened scallops and blackened shrimp. All was very good and no fishy taste. Homemade cocktail sauce is excellent. If we go through the area again, we will definitely stop! read more

I love this place! My best friends and I have lunch at the bar quite a bit but it's great for dinner dates as well. Beautiful deck literally sitting on the marsh. The food is always fresh and tasty. I would recommend the "eat and peel shrimp" if you just want an appetizer. read more

This is our third time over three years visiting the Grill. Both the service and the food did not disappoint. We love the vintage decor and welcoming atmosphere is a stable for locals and attraction for visitors. The crab stew tastes like something from your family kitchen. Great value and service. The dolphins didn't disappoint either. read more
