    Wood Fired Vegetable Lasagna
    Julia M.

    This was our second visit for dinner, and both times had a very good experience. When we arrived at around 7:30 on Friday we were seated immediately and our server was attentive and helpful. I had a cup of she crab soup to start and decided on the wood fired vegetable lasagna. The soup was good, but not the best she crab soup I've ever had. I'd give it 3 out of 5 stars But I was thrilled with the veggie lasagna. It was so flavorful & delicious. The veggies were minced and included carrots, zucchini, onion, mushrooms, and I believe tomato. The sauce was a traditional bechamel and the lasagna also had a good amount of mozzarella. The lasagna noodles were very fresh. This was a 5 star dish for me. I would order it again. Hubs started with French Onion Soup and was thrilled with it. 5 stars. His ceaser salad was huge and the lettuce was fresh. The only downside was it over dressed as it was dripping with dressing. 3.5 stars. He also had the prime rib and it was cooked as he requested but he said it was a bit on the fatty side. 4 stars. We also had a bottle of wine and they had a nice selection of reds and whites. The restaurant was lively, but not too crowded and not too loud. We will definitely go back.

    Smash Burger

    We enjoyed the best meal all week in Hilton Head Island at Wise Guys. I had the smash burger, that is made of NY strip, short rib, and ribeye all ground together. It was amazing. One of the best burgers I've eaten in a long time. My wife had the meatloaf, this is also made from ribeye and NY strip. She love it. My daughter had the Margherita Pizza, which looked to be cooked in a wood fired pizza oven. She said it was perfect and reminder her of our time in Italy. I indulged in one of the cheapest pours of 20yr Pappy Van Winkle I've come across in years. Service was fantastic. Overall amazing experience and will certainly return.

    Our 11th anniversary was this weekend and decided to spend it in the HH area. Made late reservations to WG restaurant and it was fantastic. My wife loved the setup and ambiance. Especially the long lighted hallway, it had a vintage Mod century feel to it. Service was impeccable, Chris was very helpful. My wife had the seafood wontons and Bang Bang Shrimp and was delicious. I had the fresh and much needed Beet salad and the combination of arugula, pistachios and beets were amazing with the sweet balsamic sauce. Next was the prime 16oz Delmonico steak and it was the 1st time I tried that particular cut and it was juicy (medium) well charred and succulently tender. One of the best steaks I've had in my life. Highly recommend this establishment. Well done.

    Comfortable upscale and elegant seating. Nice cozy ambiance. Great service. We loved our steaks, sides, desserts and Port.

    4 of us had a reservation for dinner to celebrate a birthday. We all loved our steaks( Ribeye, NY strip, and prime Ribeye. The sides were excellent. Bread pudding and the crème brûlée were both delicious. We enjoyed a bottle of Pinot Noir and port at dessert. Excellent service!

    Creme brûlée flight.  Awesome

    Great meal. Sliders, salad , pizza. Seems simple but they were all elevated and very very good. Upscale ambiance. Portions generous. Service exemplary with Shawn. Will be back.

    New York Strip Steak (14 oz)
    Jack S.

    New York strip I got last time we went. Absolutely incredible. Also their calamari, stuffed mushrooms and sautéed mushrooms are highly recommended.

    Is the early bird menu item significantly different size than the regular menu or are they the same?

    It's the same portions size as the dinner service size on the regular menu.

    Do you still have a happy hour?

    We sure do, all drinks are served with a dollar off chip redeemable at time of purchase or can be saved for a later date. We also offer 25% off all bottle wines. Happy hour is offered in the bar and high top lounge tables from 4-7pm daily.

We were seated in one of the dining rooms with moderate lighting and interesting but subtle decor. The perfect combination for a romantic evening with my wife. No phones, just conversation! Our server, Will, was well-versed on the special bar drinks available. We started with a Bee's Knees and an Old Fashioned. Both were very good. The appetizer's listed on the menu include one of our all-time favorites; escargot. The snails were well cooked, the butter was warm, and the bread served with it was wonderful. For our entrees, we ordered the filet with blue cheese crumbles along with the Cowboy Ribeye. Both steaks were well-cooked....as ordered! The filet was medium rare and the ribeye was medium. The seasoning on both steaks was perfect. The right combination of salt and pepper such that both steaks disappeared. Really good tasting beef. What you hope for in a steak house. We had a side of mushrooms with our steaks. Will said that a half order would be plenty and he was right. We ordered a bottle of St Supery Eli (a red blend) and it was great with beef. For dessert, we ordered the carrot cake. It was delicious, not too sweet....and an enormous piece. There was more than enough for two people. We had the leftovers for breakfast the next day. If you are looking for a great steak AND a great dining experience on Hilton Head, we highly recommend Bowdie's!

Hilton Head Island has seen some changes in food offerings in the last decade, but fresh and new American fusion isn't common. Enter Chow Daddy's. With two locations (the other in Bluffton) we hit this one on Hilton Head. It's a risky place to put a restaurant, buried in the back plaza of a nondescript but high-end shopping center deeeep in the wooded neighborhoods of the island's Southern tip. If you're staying elsewhere on the island, you'll find you have to pay a small fee to access Sea Pines but many people do to get to the Salty Dog Cafe as well. While it may not get a lot of visibility, it is definitely worth seeking out for the very good Latin American cuisine being offered. Out party of five arrived on an August Friday evening after making reservations and were impressed with the cleanliness and upscale minimalist vibe. Dark booths and Edison-style lighting are offset by the daylight let in by picture windows. There is outside seating in the patio (very pleasant in the shade) and a small bar open off the host area. Inside seating is large enough for bigger parties of 6-8. Definitely not a post-beach day place, but perfect for date night, or more dressy family dinner out. Service was quick and talkative; we enjoy chatting beyond food with out severs which makes the experience even better. Apps and mains were delivered quickly with good presentation. We started with the fine fresh corn dip - extra tortillas were helpful to get the last bits. Mains included a fresh and well pattied cheesburger, mix-n-match tacos and two specialty bowls - cajun shrimp with spicy fine fat prawns and an Ahi-tuna poke style bowl. The rice in both was excellent and the portions were perfect. I'll try to un-hide this hidden star with this review and encourage you to seek it out if you live on "HHi" or make your next visit. Rare 5 star from us.

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.
