    Low Country Boil, my husband couldn't eat this fast enough. Pure heaven on a plate!
    Dawn P.

    Clearly one of the best kept secrets in the low country. I have traveled throughout the US and in Europe and fell in love with this place the minute I walked in the door. The atmosphere draws you in. The welcoming vibe makes you want to stay. We ordered crab cakes and low country boil and they exceeded all expectations. The owners were also exceptional in meeting and greeting their customers, wonderful conversation and so very welcoming. We couldn't help but smile throughout our whole experience there. They are leaders in their field and absolutely the reason for their success. Food, customer service, and overall ambience is what everyone should hope to achieve if they have a business. I absolutely love Govan's and will definitely be a repeat customer!

    Cocktails are flowing again!!!

    yes, govan's is now open for business!!!! I suggest you call ahead for hours of operation. We have been hermits during Covid because of health risks that we have. Now that we are vaccinated, we are beginning to venture out again. When we went to Govan's last night, we appreciated their focus on health safety, without making things feel repressive. It felt like coming home again being able to see our friends there, having a fantastic meal and a few laughs. One of the things I like best about Govan's is the friendly crowd that comes here.

    First off I want to start by saying this is a good ole "down home" kind of bar / restaurant. That…read morebeing said if you know, you know. I stay next door pretty often, and I've never came in. Although I have been to waffle House, which I'm sure I reviewed prior. I came in around supper time, 6:00 p.m. or so, and it was probably at 75% capacity. I sat at the bar, after being welcomed by a local fully equipped with his own Skynyrd beer koozie!! Hahaha! They have karaoke, and they karaoke DJ spinning all the good country hits, literally emulating exactly what I play at home. Anyhow, the local that pulled my chair out essentially, told me that the "bartender sucked" But in good ole down home local fashion, she clapped right back, and obviously he was joking cuz she is phenomenal. Despite having a completely full bar, and waiting tables, she acknowledged me almost immediately. Even sat down in the bar stool next to me to take my order and chit chat and go over the menu with me. I think her name was Alicia, but regardless she was outstanding! I ordered hot wings and lemon pepper wings. They came out really fast, really hot, and really good. I kind of wish I had room to order another entree, but it filled me up. As I waited for my food, I was suddenly engulfed by an entire group of locals. Now this place, is the mature crowd, and they were so nice they sort of took me under their wing! This is the epitome of down south hospitality. I've been holding out on coming to this place for a few years now, and looking back, I wish I would have came a lot sooner. I hate using the term "vibe", But this is totally my vibe. Great food, great service, great locals, laid back atmosphere with music playing and karaoke? You just can't beat it. I have responsibilities, so I had to leave really early, but rest assured, I will definitely be back. I mean who else is going to sing Jason Aldean on the karaoke machine? Thank you skynyrd's, thank you Alicia (I hope I remembered your name right), such a great experience and I'm sorry I had to cut it short!

Live music on occasion too just not this afternoon. It's a little tricky to find as you have to make an immediate right when turning onto Motel Dr. It's on the other side of the Waffle House. Generous portion of piping hot food and chicken wrap.

All kinds of seating for all sizes of groups. Bathroom was clean! Waiter was incredibly good, competent, friendly. He made us feel like we were old friends. We had chef salads & fried mushrooms. Both were fresh, temperature appropriate. Requests for plenty of dressing was fulfilled. Food service was quicker than expected. Pricing? Very reasonable allowing for a great, well earned, tip. WE WILL BE BACK AS MEMORABLE.

We were seated quickly and the staff was nice. Our table was sticky, but I just threw on some hand sanitizer and wiped it with a napkin. Maybe the stickiness is what initially attracted the gnats that were bothering us the whole stinking time. I literally managed to kill 6 but there were still more around. They kept landing in the food which was a bit off putting. The waitress said they were bothering everyone not just our table. We ordered drinks while we decided what to eat. It took a little while to get our drinks which were very weak. It was a Tuesday night and not crowded. We ordered our food then waited much longer than you would expect for it. I ordered the Nashville chicken sandwich. It was ok, but nothing to write home about. My husband got the Ultimate Fries and Ultimate Nachos (yeah not a very health conscious guy lol). He said they were ok, but again, nothing to rave about. Overall the place wasn't super clean, had annoying gnats, weak drinks slow and underwhelming food. The waitress was nice though, so there is that.

Today I liked the service of my chef who covered for the waiter. Burger cooked nice and medium juicy. Also order"half n half" onion rings and fries. With unsweetened tea. The burger was nice except wish the bun was toasted as it was cold. The fries were nice hot crispy. However the onion rings were soggy and greasy today. Sigh. Wasn't busy either. Hmm. Total with $18 with tip $22. Nice try e server helped me out with getting cash. Yes- defiant still CAsH ONLY business. Sigh today.

Someone mentioned to me that The Sports Center here has fried chicken that tastes very close to Dairyland which has a distinctive taste. I visited and was a little disappointed that there's no fried chicken as stated however the burgers are just as amazing as Dairyland's in my hometown. If you want laidback, chill peaceful setting with great food, this place is it. My burger was not only huge but very tasty. The service was great and the server connected with everyone that walked through the door as if she knew them. I loved that part. I enjoyed my time there and will return.
