Tipsy McSway's is open until 10 PM and the kitchen stops taking orders at 9 PM. After looking over the menu, I decided to try the Brunswick stack sandwich. I had hoped to try the tomato bisque soup as my side, but unfortunately, they only serve chili, not soup, on Mondays. So instead, I ordered the fried potato salad as my side, and it was surprisingly delicious. It comes with small diced potatoes in a warm savory mustard sauce. When I originally asked the bartender what he recommended, he mentioned the Brunswick stack sandwich as well as the smash burgers. While the sandwich was good, I would probably try one of the burgers next time. Nevertheless, I would definitely get the fried potato salad again. The next time I'm in the area, I would definitely consider returning to Tipsy McSway's and I would recommend it to others as well. Cheers

Loved the sauce. * Wings were solid good. * Service was nice, like genuinely nice. *The pickle chips had a perfect crisp to them * decent selection of beers and cocktails What could of been better: * The fries could have been crisp. A little soggy or limp. But they were good. Just had a fun visit and enjoyed the place. Will come back.

Pricing was good. Will stop back here again.

If I could only recommend one restaurant on St. Simon's, it would be Fiddler's. This place has it…read moreall. Stellar cocktails, friendly service, great views, modern design aesthetic, and incredible food. My only gripe is that they do not take reservations, though even on a Friday night, I've been able to get seated within 20-30 minutes, and you can always grab a drink from the bar and hang out on the lawn while you wait. This most recent visit, I started with the seafood chowder, one of my favorite soups on the island. Creamy, hearty, with plenty of fish, shrimp, crab, and potatoes. Shared a crabcake with my girlfriend--another solid choice, with plenty of crab, not too heavy on the filling, and with a lovely remoulade. For mains, we both had the grilled redfish, a baked potato for me, and mixed veggies for her. Perfectly cooked pieces of fish with a nice crust on the outside while still being moist and tender. Dessert this time was the chocolate pie, which was quite nice, not being too heavy nor excessively sweet. Did I mention the cocktails? I'm a big fan of the smokey mango Fiddlerita (a mezcal take on the classic marg), and the saladito a close second (again, mezcal, but with a little honey and cayenne). The girlfriend enjoys the basil smash (hold the simple syrup, please). Previously, we've tried the artichoke dip, which is also fantastic, shrimp and grits (solid, but Reid's does it better), blackened tripletail over creamy leek sauce (a special, and special indeed), and the key lime pie (excellent). You really can't go wrong here.

What a joy! Even when we were not excited about the tequila used in a drink, she offered to remove it or find us another drink. The ambiance is small and quaint but homey. A sit up bar with booths and tables inside and out are a nice choice. Prices are beach worthy ( a tad high but not bank breaking). We ordered the open face tuna tacos for appetizer: overall taste was phenomenal!!!' The pickled onion and cabbage was great- the sear on the tuna was perfect. However, the size of the tuna was more than bite size. It was stacked beautifully but a little large to pick up and bite. Having a knife to cut it might be useful but it did not take away from the yumminess! Lemon and garlic oysters followed- goodness gracious!!! So good!!! Light and yummy- no graininess or too high in salinity. Didn't taste like they were from the "ocean." Very clean! Lastly, we ordered the shrimp and grits. The grits were smooth and savory. The onions and peppers were well cooked. The sausage was good and cooked well. The bbq sauce was a bit sweet for my taste, but still good. The shrimp had a good taste but they were a bit overcooked. I do believe they continued to cook (residual cooking) in the grits. Drinks were Bloody Mary and a Paloma. Bloody Mary was fantastic!!! Paloma used a cheaper tequila that is not what we usually use, but it had a good taste to the drink. Overall, it was a good experience and would recommend.

But what struck me as very odd, was that there was no music or background noise whatsoever. It was like we were in a library that served beer. There were a few people at the bar and you could easily hear what everyone was saying. I was very aware of the noise level and it didn't feel comfortable speaking at a normal volume. At some point I have to imagine some sort of music gets played. It's just not in the mid afternoon. I will say the service was friendly and fast. The didn't have any beer on draft which was kind of a bummer. I might dip in again at night. But I don't see myself showing up again mid afternoon. It was super awkward and weird.

No sear, no flavor and not confident it was even beef. Have had better burgers in a middle school cafeteria. * Fries hot but basic crinkle cut with little to no seasoning. We will be back- it's a cool Place and vibe. Drinks yes burgers a definite no.
