Amazing food and better service. Highly recommend now that the weather is cooler. Outdoor seating only

Was in search of a good burger and heard about this spot. It was really good. The smash party burger I got as one party and it was plenty for me. I loved the sauce- kinda like an aioli and the fact the pickles were chopped made it even better for me, it made all the flavors combine perfectly. The bun was super fresh too. Which can make or break a burger- you know! The fries are like old school waffle fries from the famous chicken place we all know that has Cows for their mascot. But Better! Yes the Tallow makes them better, crispy and delicious. The only thing I was missing was mayo to dip them in. Super simple menu, but when you are doing it right that's all you need. Service at the counter was great and it was quickly delivered to our outdoor spot fast and HOT! If you are looking for a good simple burger in HH, this is your spot. Run!! read more

We know it's known for their burgers, but their breakfast is phenomenal too!! I got the big breakfast burrito and my friends got the hot honey and chicken sandwich. Everything was incredible.

Tin & Tallow - Breakfast burrito and iced mocha - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

4.5 stars My husband and I saw this place as we were driving to a different burger place, so we decided to turn over and try this place out instead. Bring bug spray! There is very limited indoor seating and the outside has a nice twinkle-light atmosphere with live music. There were so many cute dogs that joined their owners! If you've been north of the Broad River, into Port Royal, this reminded me a little of Shell Ring, without the waterfront view. My burger was wet, juicy, and very yummy. We wished we had some dipping aioli for the fries, which we had upgraded to truffle and parm. We both agreed that without this upgrade the fries might have been a bit too bland. The half order is enough for two people. Instead of a soda machine, they have fridges with bottled beverages. I'm very glad they offer Coke products as opposed to Pepsi. Good choice. The food comes wrapped in aluminum in a bag. No plates or trays. We were very pleased with dinner and will be back. read more

Tin & Tallow - Smash burger and truffle parm fries (half order) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

This is one of those places that has only a few things on the menu, but they do those things SO well. Their niche is smash burgers and waffle fries, and they did not disappoint. Starting with the burger, I like when a smash burger is ACTUALLY a smash burger. They include cheese and pickles on it and it was just the perfect burger. I think it's pretty high on my burger rankings. Might even beat Heavy's! I feel like it's rare to get waffle fries unless you're going to Chick Fil A, so it was nice to have them with our burger. We got a bag to share and there was plenty. They were salted and seasoned to perfection and perfectly crispy. We sat outside where they have a full bar, a TV for sports, and they had live music. read more

This place is absolutely fantastic. We are visiting from Arizona for my bday and I am always searching for restaurants that lean seed oil free, so the tallow was a huge win for me. This was one, if not the best smash burger I've had... the fries were amazing and the wings were phenomenal. The house-made sauces were delicious and the service from the women at the front was awesome. My fav food of the trip! read more

We've been coming to HHI for years and this was our first time eating at Tin and Tallow and it will not be our last...if you like 5 guys, then you'll love Tin and Tallow. Smash burgers and Spicy Chicken Roll was what we had and it was awesome!!! read more

I've been visiting Hilton Head Island every year for the past 10 years, and I don't remember seeing this place before--so I'm guessing it's a newer spot (but I could be wrong). Either way, I'm glad we found it! We came with another couple to grab a quick bite, and wow--I was impressed. I ordered "The Burger" double with onions and sauce on the side, plus a half order of waffle fries (perfect for sharing with one or two people). These are smashed burgers, and they do them right! The burger and fries were both packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned--which is rare for me to say, because I usually don't even care for burgers from restaurants. But this one? Totally different story. You can tell they put care into what they're serving. Food comes in a to-go bag, but there's plenty of seating inside and out if you want to chill and eat there. I'll definitely be back next time I'm on the island. If you're in Hilton Head and love a good burger, don't skip this place. You'll be glad you tried it! read more

There really was not any service to speak of, you order at a counter and they deliver your food to you in a bag, not even a tray. The burger was definitely average at best. The fries were good. Prices are high for a dive burger joint. If you go to their website do not be fooled, nothing like the vibe of their website. Wife had chicken fingers, again just average maybe a little below. The folks there were nice enough. Would be nice if they cleaned off the tables. I went and found cleaner and did it myself. I know the place has a great local following, and some just love it. But there are so many other options for burgers that I don't think we will go there again. read more

This is our first time trying Tin and Tallow as I think it is fairly new? We all got original smash burgers and waffle fries which were delicious! Bar tender was very friendly! Only thing that was a little confusing was the ordering as we went inside to order but didn't realize you could've ordered at the bar. read more

Gave this a try because it had what we wanted for a light dinner...burgers and beer. Had a table by the bar and we were able to catch some of the baseball game on TV. Great set up for a casual meal. You order by either going to the bar or going inside. Food is brought to your table. Can't say enough about how good the burger was. Egg roll was great also. Parm and truffle fries were a bit strong for me but my wife loved them. Will definitely be back. read more

Decided to try Tin & Tallow while our family was staying on HHI. When we arrived it was SLAMMED. We almost didn't stop, because we figured there would be a massive wait. Thankfully we didn't let the crowd deter us. The line was pretty long, but went very quickly. You order at the counter, then grab a seat & your food is brought out to you. Even with the crowd, service was fast and pleasant. Our party had the waffle fries (plain and truffle), the chicken sandwich, and three burgers. We also ordered the egg rolls which were Chicken Parm with marinara sauce. Everything was excellent. The vibe was laid back, there was live music & great people watching :) We will return! read more

Excellent counter service place with delicious burgers and fries, and a great selection of beers on tap. Incredibly friendly and fast service. The food is phenomenal and I'm glad we got to check it out while in town! read more

Sometimes, a burger isn't just food -- it's an experience. The fig goat cheese smash burger is exactly that: an unexpected marriage of sweet, savory, and indulgent brilliance. The moment you take a bite, you're hit with the crisp, buttery edge of the smashed patty, balanced by the creamy tang of goat cheese that melts like velvet across your tongue. Then comes the star of the show -- the maple fig -- sweet, earthy, and elegantly layered, tying everything together in a flavor symphony that could convert even the most traditional burger purist. The bun holds it all beautifully, slightly toasted and soft enough to soak up every hint of flavor. Best smash on the island . read more

Absolutely recommend this place from breakfast through dinner. The smash burgers are the best I have ever had. This is a must try because after you try it you will be hooked on frequenting this business. read more

Whew!! Tin & Tallow was hands down one of the best places I have ever enjoyed a smash burger at. The vibe is so cute and cozy. The parking is very tight, but there's a movie screen outside with lots of lawn seating available. There's a cozy lounge/work area inside and a few tables to enjoy tv or gather at. I also tried the fries and the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich. I didn't love the sauce or slaw for the chicken, but overall it was very crispy and fresh. I can't wait to return for a movie night! read more

Food was fast and excellent! Not the best atmosphere and not many tables. Parking was a little chaotic, but was fine Would come back for the food to go most likely and take it somewhere else read more

Came here on a whim. Good reviews. New place. Open since January. Little. Ok parking. Order at the counter then they bring it to you. We got the original chicken sandwich and the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich. We both liked them. They are generous. You can split one. The waffle fries we just got salt. They were good. The reviews on the garlic parmesan fries were that they were bad. Our cohorts got the smash burger and the eggrolls. Both good reviews. Said they were very good. 1 couple with us got the original chicken sandy and they thought it was mushy. So out of the 6 of us 4 liked it a lot. The place has outdoor patio and indoor space. Outdoor is cool. TV's and area with a bar. Indoor has some tables and couches, also with TV's. It's oddly shaped. But we fit. TV and bar area look cool. I'd go back. read more

There's are 2 types of people in this world: those who have eaten at Tin and tallow, and then those who haven't. The wings on Wednesday are something else. I can't pinpoint it but the flavor from frying in beef tallow is amazing. Only thick I would change is for the wings to come dressed versus sauce on side but there's probably a reason they do this z Amazing service as usual. Bravo Tim and tallow team. read more

Tin & Tallow - Double bacon burger - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

The Good: The Smashburgers are excellent -- cheese, pickles, and onions all on point. If you haven't been here, stop settling for chain burger joints. This is genuinely one of the best burgers around. The waffle fries deserve a special mention: fresh, nicely done, and you get a generous portion. Think Chick-fil-A fries, but the way they should be. The Truffle Fries are solid too -- just a bit rich for my taste, but that's purely personal preference. I also tried the Sweet & Spicy Chicken -- good and flavorful, though slightly heavy on the batter for me. Still worth a try. A Couple of Suggestions: A lower-carb side option would be a welcome addition -- I asked and it was a hard no. Hopefully Tin and Tallow considers adding some healthier alternatives down the road. Breakfast -- Proceed with Caution: The croissant with egg and cheese was, unfortunately, a miss for me. The egg and cheese were fine, but buttering an already butter-heavy croissant and griddling it turned it into a flat, gooey mess. I hear there's a biscuit option, which might be better -- but personally, I'd love to see an English muffin or bagel on the menu. Something with a little more structure would go a long way. Bottom Line: Come for the burgers and fries -- you won't be disappointed. Just maybe skip the croissant breakfast for now. read more

The food is AMAZING! We came on a Saturday at 6:30 and found a table, had a drink and food all within 10 minutes. Their smash burger is out of this world and the egg roll was delicious! read more

Tin & Tallow - Outside dining & band - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

Easy to find burger joint right off the main highway in Hilton Head. Parking is a gravel parking lot and on the day o visited it was crowded. We had to search for a spot and squeezed into a little spot next to a tree. The restaurant itself is small. You have to order at the counter and then there are four or five tables inside to eat, as well as some outside seating. There's a bar outside for those who indulge. The staff was friendly-ish. They didn't have to do much except take your order and call your number but I guess that could've made that unpleasant, they were fine. I had a bacon cheeseburger and fries. It was definitely a good burger. I'm not sure if I'd make the extra effort to make it to this place if one of the top rated national burger chain restaurants is closer. However, I'm not at all disappointed in my visit. There was a live band playing, who seemed to have a nice sound and good crowd. Overall, I'd go back if it's convenient. read more

This place is legit! The service is great, everyone is super friendly and will help you with your order if you need to customize it. The burgers are top quality, especially the weekly specials they do. Very juicy and full of flavor. Then the fries which are fried in beef tallow are amazing. I'll never come here and not get a full order of them lol. Place is about an hour away from me and it's been worth the trip every time. Can't wait to try other items on the menu, including their breakfast which looks really good. read more

So yummy! Delicious and creative burgers. Egg rolls were divine. Truffle and Parmesan fries were also delicious. Staff friendly and accommodating. We will return! read more

Outstanding is the only word that comes to mind. If it's your first time, go with the classic (original) and fries. Everything is perfectly executed. It's messy, dripping with sauce, and absolutely everything a smashburger should be. read more

I wish I had a photo of my burger. It just didn't live up to the hype of the 4 and 5 star reviews. Ultra thin smash burger bordering on non-existent meat. That's how thin it was. I've had plenty of smash burgers to compare this one to. I did have the sauteed onions and the sauce on the burger. It just became a saucy mess. Unfortunately, this didn't rank high on the scale for a great burger. The waffle fries were really good though! read more

My family and I loved this place! You have to get an order of fries. They were crispy and so flavorful! They have a full coffee menu with non-dairy milk options! So nice :) The place is small with only a few tables, it has a small town restaurant vibe. There was more seating outdoors than indoors, so even if it looks busy you should be able to grab a table. The staff was lovely! read more

Great burger and fries. I was glad to try this spot and I think the tallow is a great alternative to seed oils. I'm very glad to see this kind of establishment. Service was very friendly, food as quick and cooked fresh. read more

My brother, Father and I stopped here after a hot round of golf and were helped quick and got are food quickly. We each got a smash burger and split an order of fries and wings. All the food came out quick, hot, and delicious. Great place to grab a quick meal ! read more

The only reason it is not a 5 star is that I really think it's a negative when a burger place does not have Heinz Catsup. You can feature others but Heinz is a requirement. The burger is a smash burger and it was done well; the caramelized onions were great and I am not a fan of pickles or sauces on my burgers and they were happy to accomodate. The waffle fries with the truffle and parmesan were outstanding and I would definitely recommend going for these. We sat outside to eaet since it's a beautiful fall day. There is a small play area for children and a large TV screen outside. read more

HOT DOG REVIEW The famous Chicago Dog is now on the menu. It is very good and relates to the traditional dog from Chicago. $10 with all the toppings. The only concern is it was luke warm. It was still good enough which will make me come back for another one. Order it hot. Give it a try:)! read more

Stopped for brunch on our way out of town. I had a smash burger and truffle parm fried waffle fries. Absolutely fabulous. Can't wait to go back read more

Wonderful place! Service is excellent and food is superb! They have a variety of alcoholic beverages and regular beverages. They have knock knacks inside as well. The smash burgers are the best, thin and full of flavor. More outdoor seating than indoor so prepare for that if it's a hot/cold day. Stage for music and a huge tv display. Seems to have entertainment several nights a week. Cute little kids play area which we enjoyed for our little. The ladies at the counter and the one delivering food are exemplary. Food comes out fairly quick for how busy they were. A must try if you are wanting a great atmosphere and yummy burger!! read more
