    The apps were delicious but the pasta was absolutely flavorless.

    The apps were good but the pasta was absolutely flavorless. Probably won't try it again.

    Generic empty ketchup bottle

    8-17-24 Late Lunch Let's cut to the chase this place I had bookmarked and it had many reviews so I thought it would have been a winner. Sadly it was not and joins the group of one and done. We parked very close by and once inside waited for the hostess. She appeared in a matter of seconds and asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside. Since we could see from the outside it was screened in we chose outside. Unfortunately with lack of air movement it was warm and the smell of fried fish hung in the air. After we ordered our drinks I ordered a Moscow Mule as none of their specialty drinks sounded too interesting to get. Hubby got a Miller Lite in the bottle. After reviewing the menu he noticed a lack of non seafood items. I told hubby we could go after we get our drinks but he insisted we stay. So he chose fried pickles for us to share and a burger that said 8 ounces but was really 3 ounces after cooking which came over cooked without condiments requests ie mayonnaise. Due to the late hour he just grinned and beared it. The fried pickles were ok I have had them before at other restaurants. They give you a generous amount as we didn't finish them. I ordered the Fried Flounder platter. Note you can only get fried I asked, or grilled not broiled. It came two big pieces of fish on top of French fries and two hush puppies. Flounder has always been my favorite fish this dish was ok nothing memorable about it. I think if it was broiled in butter it would have enhanced the flavor more as I really didn't quite get the flavor this way nor did the hush puppies. My drink the Moscow Mule was meh and so was the flounder platter. Disappointingly so therefore we won't be back. It's not like they could have made it better other than air circulation, cleaner table, ketchup bottle full ours was empty but the fries looked lackluster so I skipped. One and done.

    Grilled Shrimp with Green Beans
    Melina B.

    What a great place to go to get awesome service and delicious food! We were greeted and seated very quickly. We came in for lunch and we were looking for some delicious seafood. Our waitress was kind, attentive and friendly! We ordered hushpuppies for appetizer and they were delicious and big! For our entree's we ordered grilled shrimp with green beans and fried shrimp with fries, coleslaw and hushpuppies. The grilled shrimp entree also came with red potatoes but I did not want potatoes, so she offered to give me extra green beans which was so great! The inside has many tables, the outside is covered and filled with many tables as well and they also have an upstairs! The bar area is small but I feel like that is not a problem at all. When we are around this area again, we will definitely be coming back!

    I was absolutely floored by Downtown Deli.

The manager was more than just nice - she was warm, friendly, patient, and kind. She was BUSY. Phone calls, long line, deliveries, and she handled them with ease and without a drop of sweat. She was kind to every person she spoke to, including her staff, and I love that leadership. The women who brought out our food and snagged our dishes were also kind, funny, and they just knew how to best make that restaurant sing. People smiled at them because they've come here 100 times, and each time they were treated with kindness and familiarity. The FOOD. The value for dollar is HIGH here. $10.99 for a monster meatball sub with delicious meatballs and plenty of tomato sauce and cheese just melting all over this delicious sandwich. Every cheesy melty bite was amazing, per my kiddo, and when he couldn't finish it, my husband happily finished the sandwich down to the last bite. We got the Philly sandwich on a great gluten free bun and the Power Bowl with shrimp. Both were WONDERFUL! The Philly y'all. ALL DAY. The peppers, the deliciously seasoned beef, the great bun, all fabulous! The Power Bowl was filling, fresh, and I loved all the plump shrimp! I also appreciated that they put the dressing on the side! Cappy's Allergen Friendly Bakery sells their cookies here, and do NOT sleep on the Iced Oatmeal cookie. Some may hesitate because it is soy, dairy, nut, and gluten free, but that may have been one of the best cookies I've eaten ever. Perfectly balanced and chewy, not overiced, and the cinnamon in there was perfect. I savored that cookie for as long as possible. Cap all this off with some unsweet mint tea, and perfection! We will absolutely come here again - I am so impressed by the people and the food, and I cannot wait to see their continued success!

They use a cheese blend round bun. It really isn't a turkey club. It's more of a turkey sandwich with the fixings of a club. What I did not like at all was the bread. It totally killed the sandwich for me. It left a bad after taste. I can't really explain it. It just wasn't good. The turkey was ok. For the price of the sandwich though, I would have expected more turkey on it. There is a much better option across the street. Try Downtown Deli. It is superior to this establishment. Again, just my opinion. Try it for your self.

    Alvin Ord's of Bluffton is my favorite sandwich shop of all time, period. The sandwiches are…read moreconsistently, insanely good. The bread they use is similar to an airy pizza crust, and topped with their three blends of cheese that are melted onto the bread before the meats and toppings are added. I've had almost the entire menu over the years, but my favorite is the simple sliced turkey, with lettuce, tomato (which I opt out of sometimes just because I'm not a huge tomato on a sandwich guy, unless it's an actual tomato sandwich...), onion, and then I ask to add their garlic mayo and banana peppers, and sometimes jalapeños. Their turkey club is a second favorite if I'm craving bacon on my sandwich (they also have a jalapeño bacon!). Their other deli sandwiches are great, like the original with a mix of luncheon and other deli meats. I love their lesser known meatball sandwich and cheeseburger. My wife's favorite is the pastrami. The staff at Alvin Ord's are some of the nicest folks I've met in the restaurant industry, and they're always super helpful to new and old customers alike. The vibe of the shop is like a little beachside surf shop, super casual and comfy, with indoor seating at mismatched tables, along with two screened in porches--one that's dog friendly. I can't recommend this place enough. I'd eat here every other day if I could--and that's only because I usually turn my regular sized sandwich into two days of lunch.

We were informed there's no pancakes and no waffles. Strike 1. We ordered the crab cake bene, the original shrimp and grits and the French toast with scramble. The French toast was fine. Nothing special. The scramble however was a complete joke. They clearly have a vat of their "side eggs" just ready for the scoopin. They were cold and oh so dry. My sister's crab cake entree was absolutely disgusting. The crab cake was orange on the inside, it was mushy and no discernible taste of crab whatsoever. It looked like a dark brown salmon patty my mama would make with a Double Q. The shrimp and grits. Wow and not in a good way. 50 percent of the bowl was onions. Both raw (and almost raw) onions and green onions. There were FOUR shrimp that were absolutely TINY (about the size of a Wild West shrimp from Longhorn) and they had the poop STILL IN THEM. Did I mention that this cost us ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!?!?!? I want to stress again.... Our server was great. I always feel guilty writing bad reviews but I just had to be honest.

My wife ordered the macho salad and I ordered the shrimp & grits. Immediately after placing our order, my plate shows up. Wow, that was fast. Meanwhile we wait while they then deliver my salad. Seems a bit out of order but ok. Then we wait. And get a Caesar salad. And advise - not ours. While waiting we hear the server next to us announce the specials - which our server did NOT inform us of as we arrived. My wife would have ordered different. Finally her salad arrives and we eat. My shrimp and grits were sparse on shrimp and were made with mushrooms and reminded me of ingredients found in an omelet. Not a typical flavor. I finished most but not all of it. Just a bit weird. And that 1/2 a biscuits? A lump of flavorless starch. Our server was nice but seems she wasn't as seasoned as other servers nearby. She should inform everyone of the specials. Ask your server if there are specials. Our cocktails were the best part of our meal. And the prices? That bowl of shrimp and grits, along with my simple side salad were a whopping $23. My wife's salad was comparably priced. The dogs split their bowl, which was $10 just a bit much but they did bring us a bowl of water. All-in-all average food, a bit cramped for seating, over priced and a server that needed to up her game.

The muffins were a disappointment because we don't care for sweet leaning cornbread, but that's our taste preference. The fried squash was a home run with almost a tempura type batter over yellow squash spears. They were fried to crispy golden, the batter stayed on, and the buttermilk dressing was a wonderful accompaniment. I could have eaten the plate full for lunch and stopped at that! Their breakfast and brunch menu is extensive, but I settled on their 2 piece Fried Chicken with 3 sides and opted for mashed potatoes, stewed okra and tomatoes & fresh cucumber salad. Delish!
