We are regulars of Bluffton's very popular restaurant, Nectar. Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience. I ordered a latte and first it took way too long to receive it and then when I did receive it, it was warm, not hot. I kindly asked for them if they could steam warm it up from the espresso machine, which they did. I was happy with it after they returned it. What was very disappointing was the fact that the manager rolled her eyes at the request, thinking we didn't see her do that. We own a local business and would never do such a thing. We are so disappointed that we haven't been back in 2 weeks... we usually eat there 2-3/week. Do better Nectar! read more

I come here often and each time I come in I'm greeted with beautiful smiling faces. The service is always amazing. Their chef comes up with creative fresh catch dinners that I always enjoy. I LOVE THIS PLACE. It always feels like home. Some of my favorite servers are.. Angel, Jessica, Ashton, Olivia, Niki, Reagan, Madison and Jordan. These ladies do a remarkable job. Thank you Nectar in Bluffton. You truly make dining out a special experience. read more

This is a Hilton Head restaurant which has a second location in Bluffton. It looked like a nice place to eat inside, but it was a holiday and I had places to be so I got an order to go. It was ready in a timely fashion. My local root beer was not a bottle but was in a cup with ice, so thankfully I was there quickly or I would have gotten a flat watery root beer. It was a good quality soda. My quinoa salad with mushrooms was not huge but delivered a range of flavors and a useful nutritional profile hard to find in this geographic area. Indeed, this is one of a finite number of options for the special dietary needs diner, and it is worth looking into if you need the vegan or gluten-free items of which they had several. read more

The Case of the Missing Crab (and the Overcooked Shrimp) My friend took me to Nectar to celebrate my birthday, and we wish we'd gone anywhere else. She ordered the crab, shrimp, and grits -- except the "crab and shrimp" were so scarce they could've been an urban legend. The grits were the only redeeming part of the dish, and even they couldn't save it. I ordered "sautéed" shrimp with rice and roasted vegetables. The vegetables were fine, but the rice was so dry I think it had a past life as yesterday's special. As for the shrimp -- they were rubbery, overcooked, and definitely not sautéed----more like boiled, broiled, and forgotten. It's rare to find a place where both diners leave disappointed -- and on a birthday, no less. If this was their best effort, I shudder to think what the "off" days look like. For what should've been a special meal, it was just plain disappointing. Plenty of better places in town that actually care about what they serve. read more

5-26-24 Dinner sat outside 4-21-24 Brunch sat at bar Nectar has proven to be my favorite restaurant in the area. Both visits they were extremely busy but accommodating to take me and my husband without a reservation. The first visit was a Sunday afternoon and we sat at the bar and had brunch. Being so close in proximity to the bartender the service was phenomenal. Started with a Grapefruit cooler which was made up of Grapefruit Vodka, fresh grapefruit and lemon juice and a splash of soda. Hubby had a Bloody Mary both drinks were above average and literally you could sit and drink all day. I had the salad duo of shrimp and chicken salad. It was fresh and delicious. Hubby had a traditional omelette. Needed something sweet so ordered an ice cream sandwich which consisted of two homemade cookies with freshly made ice cream. Unbelievable delicious and not too sweet, big enough to be shared. Next visit on a Sunday evening after 8 pm and they gave us a table outside in the back. We were forever grateful that we even got a table as they close at 9 pm. I had a Coke this time to drink and even got refills. Hubby had a Miller Lite beer. Surprisingly for him he ordered a beef bowl as he normally doesn't eat salads. I had everything from the first section deviled eggs,fried green tomatoes,hush puppies and a crab cake. If I had to pick a favorite I would pick them ALL! There was a lot of OMG as I was eating as everything tasted so delicious. I truly believe you would be hard pressed to find one item that they serve that isn't above and beyond your expectations. I can't wait until our next visit here. read more

We love dining with Nectar when we visit my parents in Bluffton. Beautifully cooked southern food - lots of local ingredients and seasonal specials! The drinks are absolutely lovely and service is very friendly. They always accommodate our allergies nicely (my son has a few). Huge portions and beautiful presentation. We are big fans! read more

Good food, even better service! Special shoutout to CeeJay, she is on top of it! Super kind, quick service and stopped by frequently to make sure we were taken care of! read more

Service was great, not very busy on a Monday for lunch, which was nice. I got the spicy chicken sandwich, which surprised me with spice, not crazy but I have a high tolerance and it made my tongue tingle. Great flavor, lots of pickles, fries were good too, in my opinion just too much bread. Also got a sour beer, solid. Grandma and mom got the fried pickles which they loved, they also recommend the deviled eggs. Sister got the chicken salad sandwich, it was alright. read more

Per a locals recommendation I tried this breakfast place out and wasn't displeased. The restaurant itself was decorated so tastefully. I sat up at the bar and order a vanilla cold brew to start, which was pretty smooth and enjoyable. For my entree I ordered the Dr.Joe's Duck Hash, as this was something unique. I chose the sweet potato biscuit as my side, which was also unique and good. The eggs were overcooked, but still had good flavor. I didn't ask my server to remake them, but the dish would have been much better with some runny yolks. All in all I would like to come back and try some more of their menu items. They also had a nice looking dinner menu as well. read more

Stopped for lunch on our way into HH. I had the Country Cobb and my husband had the Shrimp Salad Melt. Both were superb. All ingredients were fresh and of excellent quality. Service was attentive without being obtrusive. Sweet Tea was delicious! read more

We were having too good of a time to take pictures but this place was so cool. Unique menu, lots of farm-to-table concept options, great cocktails, yummy food, friendly service, and a great vibe. Ashton was our server, and he did a fabulous job. He was so patient and accommodating with our inquisitive and high-maintenance group of five. He was enthusiastic and the pleasure he takes in his job was evident!! He had great meal recommendations, was efficient, and even though the place was jamming, he was so attentive. The "Bless Your Heat" drink was our go to. If you like tequila and heat with the perfect balance of spice and sweet, I highly recommend this drink! The deviled eggs were the overall favorite of the table, so much so that we had to get a second order, but every dish we tried was great and portions were perfect. After dinner we made our way to the outside bar for one more round, and Ceejay made us feel like we'd been there dozens of times before--she was so warm and welcoming and answered all of our questions about the restaurant and its history. She was awesome! Finally, we met Leksi on our way out, and just like Ashton and Ceejay and the rest of the gang, she made us feel so right at home. She talked with us about the new downtown architecture across the street and you could tell she appreciated the local art as much as we did! If you're in the area and looking for a casual, cozy, yet refined place to kickback and have a yummy meal and tasty cocktail, Nectar Bluffton is definitely a spot you don't want want to skip. Photo of the single remaining deviled egg that I was able to snap a quick pic of before we inhaled them within 10 seconds of being delivered to our table. Thanks again, fam! read more

This location is my favorite among the two. I like Old Town's vibe and I've never had a bad meal here. Today's challenge was that eating a late lunch (3:30pm) on a holiday meant that much of what we wanted was sold out: no regular biscuits (only sweet potato), no oysters, no tomato hand pies, and the BLT with fried green tomatoes is no longer offered. Instead, we ordered a chicken basket, shrimp & chicken basket, avocado toast, and a veggie omelette. All delicious and served by the kind and polite Alexa. read more

Taking over for the old Fat Patties, Nectar offer indoor and outdoor food and beverage environments. And a breakfast menu that is available all day. Drink options are a plenty, to include cold brew and freshly made espresso and coffee. (With over 21 options I should add.) My chicken finger basket was good, definitely fresh and my friends' plates (sandwiches) both looked well prepared. Plates went away with nothing left, so I have to say that confirmed it. Worth a try if you're in Bluffton! read more

I love this local restaurant in Old Town Bluffton. Cute decor, large menu, nice large patio. I got the Chicken and Waffles and the chicken was nice and moist with a nice light crunch, the sausage included in the waffle was a nice touch. The latte I had was well made and I don't add sugar so it has got to be good for me to eat it. I got a taste of their signature sweet potato biscuit and yummo! I will definitely come back to try their lunch or dinner items for sure. read more

We were excited try Thanksgiving dinner. Honestly, couldn't be more disappointed in the quality of food for the price. Turkey was dry, instant mashed potatoes served were not good. The surf and turf was a small piece of roast beef and the shrimp was unappetizing. Plus forgot the biscuits after we asked multiple times. Do yourself a favor and make a much better dinner at home. read more

This is my second visit to Nectar and it did not disappoint. The service was pleasant and professional. The space is cute and well decorated. The layout is conducive for groups or date night. The store up fornt offered unique and well priced novelties. I recommend this spot. Their biscuits are worth the entire visit! read more

Somehow our reservation at a different restaurant got messed up so we were able to grab a high top for four pretty quickly at Nectar Farm. Nectar Farm, the space is very cute inside. After browsing through their front lobby of books and assorted soaps, We're called to our table. I ordered a cold local beer on tap as well as fried green tomatoes to get the party started. The FRG, is that goat cheese?? FGR tomatoes, while not our favorites, we all finished the dish. Now my meal comes to the table, Shrimp & Grits in spicy tomato sauce. Different but I'm willing to try a different spin on a classic dish. They were a little heavy handed with the spicy tomato sauce. Look at my picture, it looks like there is more sauce than grits. Now I am not a grit aficionado by any means. I do enjoy low country seafood but this overpowering sauce filled me with sadness. Just passing thru your beautiful town. read more

We drove in from ATL for Labor Day weekend with our friends and this was our first place we went to eat when we arrived. The atmosphere is nice, the food is amazing & the staff were nice. One of their appetizers that I would recommend is their fried green tomatoes. The sauce they put with it is amazing.. it was weeks ago when I was there and I still talk about those green tomatoes. For my entree I got their chicken salad sandwich and honestly it was really good too. Wish they had one of those restaurant closer to me because I would love to try everything on their menu. 100% recommend this place. read more

Food was very good. Maybe the night we went they were short staffed but service was very extremely slow and both hostess and waitress were rude. Giving them the benefit of the doubt but their stress should not have been taken out on the guests. read more

Right off the bat, the staff was super friendly and accommodating. Really cool vibe in this place - was just the right amount of light and dark. Farm to table, locally sourced for the majority of their items. Check out the interesting menu. We sat outside in the back patio which is huge. Four big screen TVs, outdoor bar, and lots and lots of seating with a covered area complete with fans and heat lamps for year round comfort This is our first time here, and while we didn't eat because we were on a walking tour of Bluffton, sweet tea is excellent. read more

Nectar is amazing! It's been on my list to try since it opened and it did not disappoint! My friends and I sat at the bar and had the best lunch! Even the couple at the seats next to us were raving about Nectar and their food, drinks and over all experience. It was their usually lunch spot and will become ours when we are back in the area! Very kid/family friendly! read more

Food and staff are incredible. We had the nicest server, Chrystal. My fiance and I decided to go for brunch and when you walk in, it is the cutest set up. Bees and yellow are my favorite things so it made my heart so happy walking in and seeing the cute things they had for sale. I got the spicy chicken and pickle sandwich and my fiance got the Daves Sandwich. We ended up switching halfway because we both loved both meals, we wanted a swig at both of them. My not spicy loving queens, the spicy pickle sandwich is HOT! My lips actually swelled up from the heat but I was fine and if you ask if me I would eat it again, I would 100% deal with swollen lips to eat the goodness again. Service was a little slower than we are used to but nothing a delicious meal cant fix! read more

Goodness! Been here three times and absolutely love Nectar. We've only been to the Bluffton location but know they have another spot, too. When you walk in there is a cute area up front to shop goods. We've purchased honey and a cool smoked olive oil. You can sit inside or outside, and a lot of times there is live music! We've sat outside once and inside twice--in different areas. There is a good buzz of chatter going on but nothing too loud. There is a ladies night special one night a week which sounds FUN! When I ordered a Bloody Mary, which was exceptional, I was also given a sample of their beer. Too awesome! My favorite savory thing has to be their grits. Goodness! One must also try the Belgian waffle. My husband loves the "Southern Breakfast" because he sticks to the basics. Do yourself a favor and stop into Nectar! PS, parking can be limited so don't hesitate to park in a lot across the way and walk over. read more

Very clean restaurant, food was excellent and service from Ms. Kimberly was even better. I will definitely go back.

Lexi and the kitchen handled our large, last minute party fantastically. we thought we were a party of 10 that quickly grew to a party of 24. Lexi and the team got us drinks and food without missing a beat. Our party was celebrating after an awards ceremony and every person agreed we couldn't have picked a better restaurant to celebrate at. Thank you, Lexi and Nectar for taking such good care of us! We will always recommend you to our friends and family. read more

Food is always good and the service is top notch. We have been going there regularly for months and it never gets old.

Food was delicious. Service was friendly and prompt. Portions were a good size. Music was good outside. I would come back again .

Always a nice meal here. Farm to table & seasonal type establishment Interesting menu, polite service. A mainstay for the area..

Service was great. Ambience nice. Food average. Good fried chicken . Casual dining. A bit noisy. Outside dining also available and nice.

We were looking for a late dinner spot near our hotel in Hardeevillr and a friend of mine recommended Nectar, I am so glad she did. Food was great, ambience and service also great. I ordered the chicken pot pie soup and tomato pie both were really good, although the tomato pie could have been crispier. My husband really enjoyed his hamburger with roasted sweet potatoes. So glad we checked it out! read more
