Mahi dinner
Ree T.

The service here was fantastic. I arrived here for a birthday celebration before the rest of the group. I was given a table in the area that I preferred with stellar service. The drinks are strong and tasty. The food was hot and good. Everything is made to order. There are no food warmers so your food comes straight to you once prepared. It's a family friendly environment that is lively.

1/2 Pound Snow Crab
Ali M.

Incredibly slow service, with no sense of urgency. Very bizarre night we had here. We sat at our table for 25 minutes before we were greeted. I felt sympathy for our server because she was the only server for the entire 8-table rooftop, and was also in charge of making all of her table's drinks, on a Saturday night, during the summer, in a restaurant in a very popular vacation area. To do this efficiently would be difficult for even the most seasoned of servers. Any sort of acknowledgement or apology would have gone a really long way, though. My 1/2 Pound Snow Crab barely contained any meat because the legs were so thin. Thankfully, I got to eat some of my friend's Crab Cake Sandwich, which was tasty and I enjoyed the creamy homemade dill sauce it came with. I also loved the Sting Shooter oyster shot. The oyster was huge (almost too big!) and you get a souvenir shot glass. Hopefully, this was just a one-off night. Wishing better for this restaurant in the future!

Sting Ray's Seafood completely blew my mind with their portion sizes. Dana was my server and she did a great job making sure everything came out smoothly. I ordered the Ramsey Snow Crab boil for one and had to double check that it wasn't for two because the platter was huge. It came with three snow crab legs, about a pound of shrimp, a pound of sausage, plus potato and corn. There was no way I could have finished it all by myself. I also tried the crab fritters as an appetizer, which were like mini crab cake balls, and they were really good. The only negative aspect of my visit was the bathroom located inside the restaurant. While using it I stepped on a tile in front of the toilet that popped up and threw me off balance. It may be a little TMI for a restaurant review, but it is definitely a safety hazard. I really hope the restaurant gets this addressed promptly because I often travel with my elderly grandmother, and I can only imagine how dangerous that could be for her or anyone else.

Inside /bar
Julie F.

More like 4 1/2 stars! This was our second favorite restaurant on island. The place is quite casual with an upper and outside deck. Inside there is a bar and several low and high tables. We chose to sit in the air conditioning. The bar was full of folks eating and drinking. And the restaurant was quite busy but we got good and friendly service. I started with their "famous" crab stew. It was creamy and packed with crab meat. Very, very good. After that i had their softshell crab sandwich. It came with fries but I switched to red potatoes. There were two meaty lightly breaded soft shells on the roll. Done of the best I've had in a long time. My husband had the peel n eat shrimp. Served warm and buttery, there was a lot of shrimp in his half pound portion. He said they were great. We'd definitely recommend this restaurant. And I would go back in a heart beat for those soft shell crabs....

Burger

Sadly I would stay shy of this place if you are visiting Tybee. We went here for dinner tonight on Tuesday and found out the rooftop dining is only open on Friday & Saturday. Oh well. We sat outside. The ambiance is... interesting, especially on the ground level where we sat directly adjacent to the sidewalk and busy road. Our server was nice, and got our drink and food order pretty quick. After our food was delivered, we did not see them until it was time for the check. Ok, onto the food. The food was disappointing at best. I got the cheeseburger (granted this is a seafood place) and expected better. It tasted like a boiled burger. Like one you get in high school at the cafeteria. They asked me how I wanted it cooked as well. The fries were those scrunched up ones you get frozen from the store. Not sure if they were frozen here, but they were alright. My partner got the snow crab and said it was alright. All in all, for the price (and if you're just dining and not sitting at the bar) - I would steer clear of this place. Many other places on the island where you can get much better food for a much better price.

Banana Jamma cocktail drink!

Service was fast, friendly and fantastic! Great recommendation on the Dungeness Crab ! 3 clusters for 1 serving. Delicious! Coconut shrimp was crispy and perfectly cooked. The upstairs bar was great. The tables are a little high and chairs we ere awkward to sit in. It was still okay, just needs a little tweaking .

Leftover low country boil.

We had been here for lunch previously and it was good so we thought we would try dinner. After a short walk through the neighborhood we got right in. Outside table by the kitchen and entrance so a lot of traffic. Our waitress came up and introduced herself and ask if she could take her order we weren't ready but you went back and got us some water. About 2 minutes later a different waiter comes over introduces himself and asks us if he can take our order. Kind of confusing of who was helping us but eventually ended up with the waiter. If you want to go cocktails and a half dozen oysters which came out pretty quickly. The oysters were small that seem to be fresh. I ordered the low country boil which came with sausage shrimp potatoes and corn. My wife ordered the mahi mahi which she loved. I have had better Low Country boils the potatoes were undercooked and the shrimp was overcooked and rubbery the sausage is usually andouille sausage this just seemed like regular non-seasoned sausage we both have the same issue with our corn which was awful I don't even know if it was under or over but it was hot and really! We told our waiter and he brought back 2 others which were better but still off somehow! The service was good outside the confusion over waiter/ waitress. The atmosphere was fun A lot of energy and we got a great view of March Madness game. Maybe it was an off night for the cook but it was pretty busy. For the two of us and tip is about $120 which seems a little pricey for our low country boil $39. May try for lunch again but probably not dinner.

Love this place always. This is my 2nd time going here. I got the 1/2 lb snow crab and 1/2 lb Dungeness crab. This is the best crab I've had on the island. They season it like no other. I mean hands covered. It's amazing. The crab meat itself is super fresh and good. Service is always great and they have a nice outdoor patio but the inside is also just as nice.

Fish tacos

Great service and good atmosphere, we were seated and order taken within 20 minutes. I will be back soon.

Mahi Mahi tacos were really good. Sitting out on the front deck was nice. A little pricey, will cost family of four at least $100.

Excellent service, food and cocktails!…read more Parking is adequate but not ample. (Don't try to park your Super C in the lot :) The bar and dining area are in a sort of ramada with curtains. If you're there in cold weather, position yourself in front of one of the blasting electric space heaters. I was there in January and didn't pay much attention to the outdoor seating, but did notice some fun-looking transparent geodesic dome tent-like thingies you can sit in. I had raw local oysters, falafel bites, and nachos. The oysters were fresh, chilled and served with interesting condiments. The falafel was sizzling hot and served with delicious tzatziki. I opted for South African sausage on the nachos and they were an interesting dining experience: made with sturdy potato chips instead of tortilla chips. The best part? The margaritas! I've been traveling around the Deep South for a month now and they are by far the best I've found.

I know this place has a very high rating but I'm sorry we didn't get that during our latest visit…read moreon 5-8-26. Yes, latest visit since we also visited June 2025, and gave that visit a 4 star. Let me say there were several issues during this visit. First, they didn't have a common beer available, claiming they ran out of Corona. Now it is a Friday night and you're going into the weekend without one of the most popular beers - just crazy. Next I ordered the Low Country Boil, well after a few minutes another person comes to me as says they have no potatoes for the meal and offered extra sausage to make up the meal. I accepted that. When my meal came out, the server now tells me they owe me 2 more pieces of corn and they would quickly bring that to me. Guess what - never got them. The two pieces I did get were cold - I mean not fully boiled/cooked. Icy cold inside. Now we were with several other couples and one couple had to ask for their drinks a second time. Fact is their meal came out before their first drinks. I have to also mention the men's rooms. I was clearly hadn't been checked or cleaned in a while. Now let's face it, it got screwed up due to nasty guests, but staff really need to check it every so often. Folks I visit Tybee twice a year and there are plenty of options on the island. I think the Zunibar has lost my future business, as well as the 3 other couples we were with. If you choose here you have been warned. I hope you have a better visit.
