This is a great place to go that isn't your every day tourist trap. Highly recommend

I was disappointed to learn it got removed in favor of Manhattan style chowder, which I will say was NOT authentic. It was super spicy & tasty, but overwhelming to the clams. It was more a minestrone in terms of flavor. Loved the shrimp Po boy and the fried chicken Sammy. My friend had the BLT. It gets busy at lunch!

Chow Daddy's - the name would suggest an old school barbeque joint or maybe a diner; but it is…read moreneither. 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.

Highly recommended the snow pea martini, any fish dish and short ribs! We will 100% keep returning every year.

I had the Low country boil with shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes seasoned with Old Bay, and it was DELICIOUS! I asked for a little extra Old Bay on the side in a cup because I felt it needed a little more, but that's just a personal preference. The hush puppies with honey butter were also hot, fresh, and delicious. I had a margarita as well, and it was really good. The atmosphere is great, and sitting outside overlooking the water makes it even better. The manager also stopped by our table to check on us, which I really appreciated. He noticed my husband hadn't finished his food and wanted to make sure everything was okay. He enjoyed it, he was just full! Great food, beautiful views, good vibes, and attentive service. Definitely give them a try! You won't be disappointed!

We were lucky to get seated outside because the live music and views were immaculate. The oysters were super fresh.. so fresh in fact we found a little crab in one of them. We got it replaced promptly by our friendly waiter for a new one! I got the scallop risotto. It was good but not my favorite. The sauce was creamy but somewhat bland, which allowed for the perfectly cooked scallops to shine. My mom got the seafood pasta which was fantastic and flavorful. We met the manager who made the effort to talk to and get to know us! If we are back in Hilton Head, we will be back here!

Waited forever for waiter to come by and when he did he was not friendly and complaining about how long his day was (his name was Tweedy?). He got drink order wrong and was mostly absent during the entire meal. We asked the hostess if we could move booths to a larger booth due to a few in our party being larger people. There were two larger booths open (one was seated with four people). She told us that the larger booths were only for tables of 6 or more. I showed her that there were four people at one and she said that they were an early seating vit we couldn't move. The thing is this... the four top was seated AFTER we were seated. Other two tables sat empty until the last few minutes of our dinner. The food wasn't anything special either. One dish was bland. Another not cooked well. Crabcakes were delicious but 1/4 isn't all that good when you're paying that much. Anyways, we used to LOVE this play. Always had good service, good food and took care of customers. Something has changed in the last year. Nectar used to a "must eat" on our trips. Not any more.

A Truly Unforgettable Evening…read more Alexander's Restaurant made an already special night into a memory our family will cherish forever. From the moment we arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. The menu offers an outstanding variety of selections, making it easy for everyone to find something they'll enjoy. Every dish was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and expertly presented. The quality of the food matched the restaurant's outstanding reputation. What truly set Alexander's apart, however, was the incredible hospitality. Our adult son, who has special needs, had chosen Alexander's as the place to ask his girlfriend to marry him. The staff knew about the proposal in advance and couldn't have been more accommodating. They were ready when the moment arrived, helped record the entire proposal on video, and made sure everything went perfectly. To make the evening even more extraordinary, the kindness didn't stop with the staff. A wonderful couple dining nearby was so touched by the proposal that they quietly paid for our son and his fiancée's dinner. We were completely overwhelmed by such an unexpected act of generosity and will never forget it. Their kindness made an already unforgettable evening even more meaningful. The restaurant itself is surrounded by the beautiful Lowcountry scenery that makes Hilton Head so special. The peaceful setting, comfortable atmosphere, exceptional service, and outstanding cuisine all came together to create one of the most memorable dining experiences we've ever had. Thank you to everyone at Alexander's Restaurant--and to the incredibly generous couple who helped make this once-in-a-lifetime celebration even more special. This wasn't just dinner; it was a night our family will treasure forever. Five stars simply aren't enough.

It doesn't feel corporate or manufactured at all. More like you've stumbled into somebody's lovingly chaotic backyard dinner party where the food just happens to be genuinely top-tier. The mismatched charm, handwritten feel, and warm atmosphere are part of what makes it so special. There's this brilliant contrast between the laid-back hole-in-the-wall vibe and the seriously refined cooking coming out of the kitchen. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were incredibly tender, fried perfectly, and drizzled with a lovely house-made ranch. The sweet house pickles alongside were such a good touch. We also each had a cup of she crab soup which was beautifully seasoned and packed with tonnes of crab morsels. For mains, we shared the shrimp and grits and completely understood why the recipe has won awards, including being recognised as the 3rd best in the world. The recipe is rooted in traditional Lowcountry cooking but elevated with layers of flavour that somehow still feel comforting and homemade. The grits were unbelievably creamy, and the shrimp and sausage were perfectly cooked with fantastic flavour throughout. We also split the seafood purloo with blackened grouper, and it was equally impressive. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted incredibly fresh without trying too hard to be fancy. What really made the experience though was the staff. Everyone went above and beyond. They took time to chat with us about the area, paced the courses perfectly so nothing felt rushed, and by the end we were leaving with handshakes feeling more like guests than customers. Places like this are getting harder to find. We'll absolutely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Lowcountry food served by genuinely wonderful people.

Except for the fried green tomatoes- those were very good, dipped in blue cheese dressing (ranch was bad, tasted like plain mayonnaise with a parsley sprinkle) The pimento cheese appetizer was so disappointing! Tasted like cream cheese mixed with packaged shredded cheddar and 3 small pieces of raw red pepper; served with stale corn chips and uninspired pita. Was so looking forward to good homemade pimento cheese in the south! The grouper sandwich was sad, my friend only ate the fish and left the bun and tomatoes on the plate. The mac and cheese was even sadder, described as baked mac and cheese it was more like old leftovers, cold, separated noodles that were really dry. The shrimp blt salad- the aforementioned fried green tomatoes were the best part. The bacon was cold and floppy and kind of unchewable. It was served on wilted arugula. I'm so confused by all the rave reviews! Maybe this was a one off.
