After getting into town, we were starving and Seacow had good reviews. The place is small but has ample seating in various parts of the restaurant. We avoided the patio because the pollen was crazy and triggered my allergies. The staff was busy but took our drink orders quickly. I had been craving a BLT so I ordered one. My daughter had a Caesar salad with grilled shrimp and my husband had the grilled chicken sandwich. All the items were good portions and fresh. Recommend for fresh food and hometown feel place. read more

While visiting Edisto Beach, SC, we stumbled upon SeaCow Eatery by during a quick Google search for a good diner--and I'm so glad we did! When we arrived, we immediately noticed how quaint and homey the spot felt. It definitely has that locally owned charm (not franchised), which I absolutely love when I'm traveling. It just feels more personal and authentic. We were greeted by a hostess with the warmest smile--her name escapes me, but she was incredibly kind and welcoming. She gave us a helpful heads-up that since it was Sunday and we arrived a little after 11:30 AM, breakfast would only be served until noon. She also explained that once noon hits, they finish all breakfast orders before starting lunch--so lunch doesn't really begin until closer to 1:00 PM. Just a little pro tip if you're planning your visit (and this only applies on Sundays)! Now let's talk service--our server, Julius, was awesome! Friendly, attentive, and just overall great energy. I also loved seeing the owner present and working just as hard as her staff--she was out there helping serve food, which really speaks to the care and pride behind the business. The only downside was the wait time for our food--it took a bit longer than expected, especially for breakfast items. BUT... once that food hit the table? Totally worth it. Everything was delicious! I had the home fries sautéed with onions and peppers, topped with cheese, along with grilled shrimp and boiled eggs (which are surprisingly hard to find when eating breakfast out, so I was excited!). My friends enjoyed their meals just as much. The pricing was very reasonable, and the portion sizes were solid--definitely felt like we got great value for our money. Overall, we had a great experience. Good food, great service, fair pricing, and that cozy, local vibe you hope to find on vacation. I'd definitely recommend checking out SeaCow Eatery if you're in the area! 4/5 stars (just knocking off a point for the wait time) read more

We recently tried out SeaCow when we went to Edisto Island. They had some seriously delicious grits! Very creamy and good flavor - I added shredded cheese on top. Their biscuits were soft and fluffy. Their sausage gravy was on the thick and creamy side - and I added some salt and pepper for a little more flavor. read more

We placed a breakfast order over the phone and were thoroughly impressed! The French Toast looked incredible, and my wife raved about how delicious it was. The bacon was perfectly crispy with outstanding flavor--I'm not sure what brand they use, but it was truly top-notch. I ordered the Moo Mania and really enjoyed it, while my son had the pancakes, which looked just as tasty. The coffee was also excellent. Our waitress wasn't overly chatty, but she was attentive and took great care of us. The restaurant itself has a charming, cozy vibe. I imagine it could get a bit noisy and bustling during peak hours, but the food is definitely worth it. Unfortunately, I didn't get any photos because we couldn't wait to dig in while everything was hot and fresh. We highly recommend this spot and are already looking forward to more breakfasts here during our stay at Edisto Beach! read more

Our server at another restaurant recommended this restaurant for homemade crab cakes, so we tried it for brunch. They were excellent and very large. I also ordered scrambled eggs, grits and raisin bread toast that were also very good. The coffee was the right strength and flavorful as well. My husband enjoyed his bagel and cream cheese, along with corn beef hash. read more

A casual local eatery with southern charm! There is a small dining room and a screened in porch area. Our server was friendly and accommodating. We all got fried shrimp with crisp beer battered french fries and creamy coleslaw. They have a good variety of beers and wines. And oh my, the pies! I enjoyed the peanut butter pie and we shared a piece of carrot cake. I heard they had a coconut cream pie and a chocolate pie but those were already sold out. We'll definitely be back! read more

Laid back island breakfast favorite. Good solid service and food. Their logo is just too cute and I ended up getting one of their hats. Nice memories from Edisto. My husband really liked the biscuit & gravy & pancakes. I just had a side of crispy corn beef hash with a coffee. Recommend this place! read more

Love this place, the vibe, the food. So laid back and fun and EASY... You know the food is great when the dinner rolls are PERFECT.

So glad that we could have our dog with us while we ate lunch on the patio. The food was large portions and delicious. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back. read more

If you are reading this, you are probably looking for a place to grab some food. Do yourself a favor and skip Coots. SeaCow will deliver. Great atmosphere, great service and great food, total opposite of Coots.... I went with the Fried Steak. Lightly battered and chicken fried steak in excellent mushroom brown gravy. The batter fries are to die for, I ordered a double side of them. Wifey went with the Fisherman's Platter - oyster and shrimp. Both meals came with a very tasty hot roll, yummy...... Collard greens and Fried Okra. Excellent! I hate greens, but her sides were awesome. Shrimp and oysters did not disappoint, but honestly, they are typical of the area. Toss up what is better for seafood and both equally great - Whaley's vs. SeaCow, both A++++. read more

The wife and I really enjoyed the spot. Compared to McConkey's, this place is much better. The food was better and the cost was lower. The service at those places were really good and I think I like the ambience better at sea compared to McConkey's. A must place to eat. read more

Ate here while on vacation for lunch. Friendly staff, great menu options, had a great meal and great service.

Notoriously, this is an Edisto Staple. It's always packed, which is normally a great sign. I love their breakfast and brunch, but a family of 4 can expect to spend a little over $100 to eat here. read more

The Fries Shrimp and Flounder were Great! Good atmosphere! Nice folks with good prices ! Thank

A local small location for lunch. Staff is friendly and food is good. A good place to go if casually dressed for a quick lunch.

Great food and customer service. Nice and cozy on the inside or open up on the outside

We live at Edisto and try to support the local restaurants but we find it is difficult with the high prices and quality of the food. Went to SeaCow recently and decided to try their grilled grouper. We were so disappointed. The piece was very small and thin and it didn't have much flavor. For $23 I would have expected a little more. The mango salsa was tasty though and saved the dish. On the plus side their pies never disappoint. The staff is always friendly and remember the locals. read more

They were busy when we arrived. Was seated and it took a few minutes before we saw a waitress. Restaurant was atmosphere was trendy with colorful Seacow hats and shirts on the walls. The order came out pretty fast, overall good service. I had the fried flounder platter with beer fries and cole slaw. The platter was full. I had 4 - 5 nice size filets of flounder that was lightly breaded and very fresh, just delicious. Cole slaw was very good too. It had an unusual dressing, poppy seed maybe. The fries were also very good. My husband had the shrimp sandwich that he said was very good and the fish fresh. We'd Highly recommend this spot. The staff was very attentive and my husband even lost his new hearing aid case and they even went looking for it outside for us and found it! We were very grateful. We look forward to going back.

The SeaCow Eatery is VERY much in the spirit of Edisto. SeaCow is a chill, beachside restaurant that stays well within its price point, feel, and expectations. You go to SeaCow for sandwiches, beers, and to enjoy the outside. Everyone is in a good mood, happy to be in Edisto, and basking in the sun. Even the little treehouse style strip it's in is adorable; there are a few easily walkable shops. We ordered a few beers, sandwiches, and the shrimp salad. We REALLY enjoyed the dill in the shrimp salad. Very unique. The chicken sandwich and fries were hot, fresh, and needed after a long day of moving boxes and cleaning. Portions are small. Again, at this price point, they're accurate and hey, you can always order more. Our only constructive feedback would be to have the server confirm each order 1-2 minutes after delivery. Both our salad (extra items asked to remove) and sandwich (without bacon and cheese we asked to add) were delivered wrong. Unfortunately, we were unable to tell our server for 5 minutes and moved forward. There were only three other tables while we were there so it wasn't because the kitchen or staff was busy. Yes, we'll absolutely give the SeaCow another try and double check our order immediately after it's delivered. read more

This is a local dinner. The breakfast was basic nothing really stood out. The omelette was bland, the home fries and grits were disappointing. Service was friendly and located just a few blocks from the beach. read more

May I just take a moment and give SeaCow Eatery a chef's kiss?! The food here was so good and they're dog friendly. My family and I ordered: clam chowder, mini crab cakes, shrimp po boy, fried oysters/ shrimp/flounder/scallops, grilled scallops and a salad. Everything was seasoned to perfection. Service was great and it is a really laid back restaurant. If I was having a bad day, I would come here and all my problems would go away. I would literally come back to Edisto Island just to eat the food here. This is the type of food where everyone at the table is quiet; because, it's that good! I wish I would've taken pictures; but, I was so hungry that I couldn't stop eating. Really worth trying! read more

We visited Edisto Island with three other couples and went here for lunch on Sunday. Seated at a table for eight after about a ten minute wait or so, which wasn't bad considering there were quite a few people there. I ordered the Shrimp Po Boy sandwich with fries. I must say it was the worst Po Boy sandwich I've ever had. The bun almost tasted as if it had been toasted too much, although it was not dark at all. There was absolutely no sauce of any kind on the sandwich, just fried shrimp, a nice red tomato and a piece of lettuce. Very very dry. They should have put some kind of sauce or at least mayo on the bun. My wife and one other person ordered the hamburger. She ate half of it and said it was terrible. It was very hard and when you looked at the meat it was very compacted....not like normal ground beef or chuck.She said it may have been her fault as she asked for it to be well done. However, our friend also order the same and said his hamburger was the same way. He had visited Edisto a year ago and had the same experience last year with a hamburger. He didn't care for the fries but several of us thought the fries were good. One couple had the chicken salad and liked it. Another couple had the fried oysters and said they were good. Service was not too bad....but the food definitely could have been better. I was so surprised to see so many great reviews especially for the Po Boy Shrimp Sandwich. Either I had a bad day or everyone else had a different sandwich than I did. I don't think we'll be going back. We at at another restaurant the next day and their Po Boy's were great. read more

We've visited Edisto for the last 20 years and I can't believe I don't have a review here yet. We make it a point to come here. Only 6 of the 14 of us, went to eat this night which made getting a table much easier. The waitress recommended we sit outside to feel the breeze as inside was packed and the covered porch was hot. I got the Hawaiian Chicken. I always get the Hawaiian Chicken. One time, they took it off the menu and I still asked for Hawaiian Chicken and they made it for me. Chicken, Teriyaki sauce and pineapple. Side of Cole slaw and bread that tastes like a doughnut. The only negative thing I'll mention and it's fixable is my father had the field peas and said they were too salty to eat. read more

This place is one of our choice eateries while on the Island...and well, we hit an unlucky time to visit. We got there prime time, almost 7 pm on Sunday...and the wait was nearly an hour. We wanted to be seated on the patio, but given that the restaurant closed at 8 pm, and the sun was waning, we decided to get the first available...and ended up getting the partial patio seating. Anyway, I must mention that on Edisto Island, many restaurants aren't even operational...for various reasons. Closed WAY too early, not at all or whatever, and this was a huge, recurring disappointment. Maybe since May is still off season, maybe due to the pandemics, maybe due to being on Sunday...whatever the case, the dining options were very limited! I DO give props to SeaCow for being one of very few restaurants that remained diligent, and stayed open (though it took customers only 'til 8 pm). Second bit of disappointment. They were out of Clam Chowder, THE one thing I wanted from this restaurant. This is the other thing...not just this, but many/most places throughout this island...they're just out of things, no matter what time you get there. ANYWAY, I ended up getting their Fried Flounder/Scallops combo...and as usual, they were good. Fried Calamari was surprisingly good too. Honestly, I just wasn't in the mood for this type of food (Fried on Fried?!?), but again, the choices on the island was limited. There are zero ethnic foods on this island (minus the Tacos and the Pizzas). Still, I've always thought the foods were solid here. My husband and son seemed to enjoy their foods too. The only reason I'm going down one star is due to my disappointment of them not having Clam Chowder. I was also quite frustrated with the long wait...and NOT getting the desired patio seating. I DO realize that the long wait and the seating issue wasn't necessarily their fault...but can't say that I enjoyed the dining experience due to all these glitches. read more

Very strange and awkward service but great food. Loved that we could eat the porch with our pups. We will be back.

My husband and I swung by here for a date night last night. The crab cakes are delicious, no filler mostly crab! The broccoli casserole was a special and delicious. The atmosphere is just what you would want in a beach eatery. Our waitress, Addison, was great and such a joy! My husband got the seacow super platter and all was delicious! The fried oysters were my favorite! We will be back next beach trip! read more

Haven't been here for maybe 5 years but we gave it another chance and pleasantly surprised. Ate here for breakfast on our way home from a week at the beach. Service and food was excellent.

We both had the shrimp po boy. DELICIOUS generous portion with fries. Good coleslaw slaw. Service was quick and pleasant. We were there at 3 pm and were the only ones there for a while.

It's wet and nasty out and the air is on here. It's good I put a jacket on to come here then. We got our water, took a bit of time to get in our order. The staff are all wearing masks here. Tiffany wasn't warm but she got in our order and got our food out too. There's 6 tables total inside, 3 outside and 3 seats at the counter. Only one table seem to be social distanced away from the other tables, but they are by the walkway where everyone comes into the place. Is it me or isn't $2.50 a steep charge to add sliced tomatoes to your 2 eggs, seriously? This is a deal compared to getting a side order of tomatoes, which is $3.95, that's crazy to me. We ordered a John's omelet with biscuits and home fries, since making your own with the same ingredients a la carte is more expensive, no surprise here. I know someone who will be in a food coma for our tour of the island today. Their plastic cups have all been chewed up, probably best to get a straw or don't drink any water or beverages here. I think it's time to retire the plastic cup they gave to me. My husband got a newer one. Food takes a bit to come out, but their advantage is there's not much open on a Monday. Wishing we had picked up some eggs and breakfast or brunch items at the Hi-Low last night now. The chef seems upset or he's clumsy, hearing things banging and crashing in the back kitchen. The John's omelet is huge. They do use fresh veggies and ingredients. The biscuit is beyond bone dry. It's hard to get down even. The home fries are simple potato cubes, nothing special. The crab cake is blah and has mostly pulverized crab meat in it, no chunks at all. It looks like canned tuna fish and it's clear the crab comes from a can, it's filled with a lot of tiny shredded crab meat. I covered the grits, crab cake and eggs on my plate with hot sauce to get it down, it's all so bland and tasteless to me. The crab cake is the size of a large hamburger pattie. I would rather a smaller more chunky crab cake than what they gave me. I do have to mention the crab cake smells not so fresh and fishy to me. I get the grits tend to be bland down here, so if you don't hope for grits with a bit of flare, you will be happy with them here. The best part of my meal was the not fresh raisin toast and the subpar apple butter jam from Smuckers. Safe to say stick to the omelets here and get a bagged toasty instead of their dried out biscuits. read more

We ate here for breakfast on Sunday after hearing it was a great breakfast spot, and it exceeded our expectations. All 6 of us got something different and shared a few bites from each other and loved it all. Everyone agreed it was the best breakfast we'd had at a restaurant that we could remember. Especially the French toast and biscuits and gravy. It's small, so expect a wait, but we sat outside and it was very nice! We will definitely be back! read more

My wife ordered the Crab Cakes. Six hours later she was vomiting violently. She took one crab cake home and ate it two days later with the same result. Definitely food poisoning. Makes me wonder what else is bad at SeaCow. read more

Tried the SeaCow for the first time today. It was a beautiful day, so we took our dog knowing that their porch was dog friendly. Our server was a nice young guy, but he seemed a little wary of our dog who happens to be about a hundred pounds. But our dog is very well behaved, and the server was a little more chill as the visit continued. I had the oyster po boy, which was so loaded that I had to eat some oysters before attempting to bite into my sandwich. Fries were perfectly cooked, and the slaw was a good blend of cabbage, mayo and spices and very little sugar, which was great. I don't like that overly sweet stuff. Hubby had the Philly and had no complaints. Our server never let our drinks get empty, and was kind without being overly attentive. We liked it. Good food. Good service. read more
