Fried Bologna Sandwich, minus one bite, wow!
Don B.

Still a great place to go! You might want to avoid the Spinach Salad though. My wife had it last night and she was very disappointed. Make up your own mind, but it was just spinach ,a half an egg, and a couple slices of a radish. The dressing was supposed to have some bacon in it???, not. We appreciated their not charging us for it. All else was great.

From the Bar

Nectar was located across the street from our hotel decided try for dinner. We grabbed a seat at the inside bar and promptly greeted by a friendly bartender. I had a shrimp steak bowl and my husband had a blackened fish sandwich. Also tried the calamari all were exceptionally delicious. We met the owner who was very friendly. The restaurant itself has a relaxing vibe would not hesitate to return.

SOUTHERN CHICKEN N- WAFFLE , side of bacon
Mike M.

The chicken and waffles is so good here. I had them twice during this trip. Outdoor seating is nice and dogs are allowed in the outside area. Huge plus

I visited Nectar on 10/20/25 and it was a very pleasant experience. We sat at the bar and enjoyed brunch. The bar area is really cute, clean and aesthetically pleasing. The food was really delicious and so were the drinks. They offer ample parking and the wait was minimal on this day. They even had a nice selection of music playing. I will definitely return for the great vibes, food, drinks and customer service.

BLACK & RYE and SOUTHERN BRULEE
Katie L.

We LOVE both locations of Nectar. Food is farm fresh as they say, and the menu has options for everyone! Early dining deals are excellent, and the restaurant is chic but also kid friendly. Service always lovely. Both brunch and dinner offerings are top notch!

Kids pancake
Irina G.

Southern charm comes to mind when I recount this experience. We got huevos rancheros, duck hash, kids pancakes and a sticky bun. Recommended - the kid pancake was giant. My son loved it. It was the size of a pizza pie and he ate most of it (he is 4). We also got a sticky bun which was much bigger than expected. My daughter is a picky eater and this one she approved it. The huevos rancheros were ok. I didn't love them. There was too much salt and too much spice that didn't blend well and they used lentils that literally drowned any texture and flavor from the rest of the dish. Interesting concept but I didn't like it. They hubby got the duck hash which would have been better with regular instead of sweet potatoes. The place is charming. There is seating inside and outside. There are also TVs, where we watched some tennis. Service was good. Overall, they seem to do the sweet dishes well and aren't as greasy on others. The place has a nice space and warm southern vibes. I would come back for coffee and dessert but not for food.

Southern Chicken N Waffle
Ian N.

Country Fried Steak (5/5): The steak was nicely fried and not too salty. The gravy was delicious. The hashbrown was FANTASTIC--very dense, great flavor, and a crispy exterior. Southern Chicken N Waffle (4/5): The chicken was well-fried and juicy with A LOT of dill flavor (the dill clashed a little with the sweet syrup). The waffle was just a little too soft and got soggy quickly. I also think they forgot to add the sausage which I was looking forward to :( RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

It was almost closing time but the waiters was nice and didn't rush us, Chicken and Waffles was on point

Of all of the places to tryin in Hilton Head, I'm glad we gave Nectar a shot. The food was delicious and the portions were enormous. Its not all about quantity, its got to taste good too... They hit all the marks here. I ordered a pork schnitzel which was more of a southern version. I got it with mashed potato and collard greens. I honestly think I made a poor choice. The pork schnitzel was good, but not great- I think if I got something a little more traditional I would have enjoyed it more. That said, the portion was generous and the sides were great. As far as pork schnitzels go though, it was pretty average. However, my wife got a smothered pulled pork bowl and let me tell you, if you are looking for southern flavor without all the "fried", go for it. The pork was crisped up and it was smothered in a pepper gravy and it was very forward on the pepper. It was fantastic- wish I ordered it... We got a side (basically a mountain) of fried brussels sprouts and a tomato hand pie as an appetizer. Hand pie was decent, worth trying, but wouldn't get again. It was just okay. Nothing amazing to write home about. The brussels sprouts damn near killed us. The oil from them being fried and the hot pepper flakes turned into chili oil in the bowl and the bursts of flavor from the sprouts can hit the back of your throat, so be warned there.. It was a portion and a half though. Definitely a sharable size among 3-4 people. If you eat these with one other person you may have a little bit of an upset stomach, so much oil. All of that said, I would come back here. I thought overall it was very pleasant. The service could have been a little better and food choices could have been a little different but that part is on us.

SOUTHERN CHICKEN N- WAFFLE

Came for brunch and took the servers recommendation on the chicken and waffles. It was delicious! It said it came with spicy sausage and I didn't realize it was inside the waffle but even better. The chicken was really well fried and not greasy. Service was quick and friendly. I sat on the patio and enjoyed the May breeze.

The cutest restaurant w/outdoor seating.
Shanel B.

We enjoyed our brunch date at Nectar! We sat outside and received amazing service from both our waitress and the manger on duty. Everyone was kind, welcoming and attentive. Our food included the following: The deviled eggs 8/10 Fried green tomatoes 8/10 Cinnamon French toast 8.5/10 Duck hash 3/10

Kitchen Sink Bowl was great
Rachel C.

Had a great meal at Nectar, the server was very funny and the food was delicious. I suggest checking this place out!

NECTAR SALAD (like a deconstructed wedge)
Susan R.

First time at the new HHI location, which is more open and airy. Our server, George, was very friendly and attentive he stopped by several times to refresh drinks and check on us. The table shared fried green tomatoes. Not the worst we've had, but just meh. My she crab soup was filled with crab and took the chill off a cloudy day. My shrimp burger was pretty good, but it had too much sauce on it--the kitchen should go lighter on that! My friend enjoyed her chicken pot pie soup with biscuit crumbles. My other friend had The Cuban, which was pretty substantial. We had no room for dessert. The Bluffton menu remains my favorite.

A Lowcountry Backyard - SHRIMP AND GRITS

Family favorite every time we visit! A hidden gem with a unique menu…read more Just went last night and had with the sweetest, friendly waitress, Mickey. Had the grilled shrimp BLT salad for the first time and it was amazing! So were the fried green tomatoes and even the lima beans! A very unhurried, relaxing backyard eating experience.

It doesn't feel corporate or manufactured at all. More like you've stumbled into somebody's lovingly chaotic backyard dinner party where the food just happens to be genuinely top-tier. The mismatched charm, handwritten feel, and warm atmosphere are part of what makes it so special. There's this brilliant contrast between the laid-back hole-in-the-wall vibe and the seriously refined cooking coming out of the kitchen. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were incredibly tender, fried perfectly, and drizzled with a lovely house-made ranch. The sweet house pickles alongside were such a good touch. We also each had a cup of she crab soup which was beautifully seasoned and packed with tonnes of crab morsels. For mains, we shared the shrimp and grits and completely understood why the recipe has won awards, including being recognised as the 3rd best in the world. The recipe is rooted in traditional Lowcountry cooking but elevated with layers of flavour that somehow still feel comforting and homemade. The grits were unbelievably creamy, and the shrimp and sausage were perfectly cooked with fantastic flavour throughout. We also split the seafood purloo with blackened grouper, and it was equally impressive. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted incredibly fresh without trying too hard to be fancy. What really made the experience though was the staff. Everyone went above and beyond. They took time to chat with us about the area, paced the courses perfectly so nothing felt rushed, and by the end we were leaving with handshakes feeling more like guests than customers. Places like this are getting harder to find. We'll absolutely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Lowcountry food served by genuinely wonderful people.

Just had one of those "how is this place not packed every night?" experiences at Annie O's…read moreKitchen... and wow, I'm still thinking about it. Debbie and I stopped in about an hour before closing, not expecting much--just a quick bite. What we got instead was hands down one of the best seafood meals I've had in a long time. First off, we met the owner, Jim Scully--absolute legend. Friendly, genuine, and actually takes the time to sit and chat. You just don't see that anymore. Great conversation, great energy... set the tone right away. Now let's talk FOOD... * Fried oysters & shrimp - ridiculously good. Light, crispy, not greasy at all. You can tell everything is top quality. * Coleslaw - vinegar-based, shredded, and honestly reminded me of proper German kraut salad. Perfect balance with the seafood. * Soft shell crab... alright, this is where things got serious. "It was like a circus in my mouth... just an explosion of flavors." I'm not exaggerating. The texture was creamy, not oily, and the batter was just perfect. One of those bites where you just stop and look at each other like... yep, this is special. On top of that: * Everything is made with high-quality ingredients * Prices are very reasonable for what you're getting (honestly, some places charge double for worse) * BYOB (bring your own wine/beer = big win ) * Huge menu--seafood, ribs, BBQ, pulled pork, chicken, desserts... you name it Final verdict: (three thumbs up from Debbie & me) If you're in Hilton Head and even thinking about seafood--this is a hidden gem you don't want to miss. We'll 100% be back.

A group of friends and I had a late breakfast here one Saturday. One of the group is a local so he…read moresuggested it. He said it was generally more of a local than a tourist place, though everyone is welcome. They share a large parking lot with a shopping plaza. It appears that there is a Publix going in soon. Also, some areas had signs about using a QR code to validate parking, but apparently those were not activated yet (and seemed unpopular with the staff). It was fairly crowded when we arrived (probably 9:30 a.m.). However, they apparently just expanded and took over the adjoining space (formerly a t-shirt shop). So though the 'original' booths and counter stools were mostly taken, there appeared to be open tables in the new space. Service was sort of tag-team; whoever walked by and noticed that you needed something tried to take care of it. That is in no way a complaint - it was an efficient system. We all ordered and had a short wait for the food, given the volume of customers. When it arrived, everyone liked their platters. I had a cheese omelet, bacon, and hash browns. All were quite tasty. The coffee was good too. Prices were reasonable. I'm not much of a 'breakfast out' person at home, but if I were on HHI for any period of time, I'd definitely go back here.

I came here with a bunch of friends from my undergraduate research lab while we were in Hilton Head presenting at a conference. We had rented a condo to all stay together and this place was in walking distance, so we headed over. I don't remember what all everyone else got to eat, or much about the service, but I do remember it was a total vibe. Beachy decorations that were fun but still classy and not too kitschy, warm lighting, good music. I ordered an item probably not even on their menu anymore: pulled barbeque chicken on a hunk of spicy cornbread with a side salad. I checked online and it's nowhere to be found, but it slapped at the time, and from pictures it seems like you can still maybe order their spicy cornbread at least, which was the best part! It had a great cakey texture and some legit heat. The chicken was succulent and tender and the smokiness paired well with the salad. It seems Chow Daddy's enjoyed a decade of success after my visit so long ago. I hope the temporary closure listed on the Yelp page doesn't turn into a permanent one. It was a pleasant surprise to be reminded of this visit and my time with friends.
