My husband and I went here for our 3rd anniversary dinner on the recommendation of a friend. It was a bit less formal than we had anticipated....we sat outside and there were plastic cups and paper napkins. It wasn't exactly what we thought we were getting into when we booked...but I can hardly blame them for my execrations. However, the food was to die for. My husband ordered fish (caught that day according to our waiter) and I ordered the chicken (probably not caught that day). Everything was good and the view was beautiful...we walked around a little bit before and after our meal. I would go there again! read more

I am assuming this is the same place as the Skill Creek Boathouse, and that Skull Creek is just recent addition to the title. Depending on who you talk to, or read I guess too, this place is either a lot better now, or used to be a lot better before, but everyone seems to have an opinion, and that says something. I have been coming here for the past few years, both as a destination and a place to go after fishing. It is easy to say that I am a fan. I don't see a time that I would go to Hilton Head and not go to the boathouse. I love the outside deck and bar. A fantastic way to enjoy the water and a sunset. I have found the food to be very solid as well; especially the sashimi that they have. The service is usually pretty good, and pretty friendly. The wait can be much at times, but putting your name on the list, getting a cocktail, and playing some cornhole out by the water passes the time nicely. read more

I come from a family that goes out to eat often and the manager of this restaurant gave us a dinner experience we have never encountered. We live on the Island and have been to this restaurant a few times with little complaint. Tonight however, cancels all of the other experiences out. My father ordered the scored flounder and after a few bites realized that the fish was spoiled. He politely told the waitress and ordered their special, Cobia. After he finished the tail of the fish he went to eat the middle of the fish and discovered it was raw. He told the waitress and she apologized. After our meal, when we asked for the check my dad was shocked to see that we had been charged for the Cobia. The waitress seemed very surprised that my dad wanted her to tell the manager what had happened. When the manager came over my dad explained how his meal was ruined and the manager replied "I actually tasted the fish and thought it was excellent." Shocked, my dad replied that he was pretty sure it was spoiled and his second meal was raw but that he would pay for the Cobia since he had eaten part of it (the cooked part). The manager then came back and announced that he had taken half of the fish off our check. My dad politely explained that we live here and have brought others to this establishment and will not be coming back due to the way they handled this situation. The rude manager had nothing to say except, "Im sorry you think Im not nice" and walked away. I will ignore the fact that the manager admitted to eating a patron's meal and go straight to the fact that this is not the way to treat a customer. Not only did this man ruin my father's dinner (twice!) he also called him a liar and made him feel as though this was somehow his fault. I will say that the other 4 members of my family did enjoy our food, but I have never in my life seen a manager and waitress treat their guests in such a rude and condescending way. If you are looking for a nice dinner in which the staff cares about your enjoyment and well being then this is not the place. ***** Update********** July 2010 After writing this review I was contacted by the General Manager, Chris Gregory, of this restaurant. He was extremely concerned about our experience and insisted on trying to rectify the situation even though my family was hesitant to accept. On July 4th weekend my family and I accepted his invitation and went back to the Boathouse for a complimentary meal. I am very glad that we did. Although, it was a little too late, we were treated as customers should be treated and had a very pleasant and DELICIOUS meal. Our waitress was quarky and silly as well as attentive and Chris came by our table twice on the busy evening to make sure we were satisfied. Our past experience left us feeling as thought this establishment did not care about their customers and this evening made us feel the opposite. It was very clear that Mr. Gregory was concerned and that he cared about the individual. On such a busy evening it was obvious that this is a restaurant that people will alway eat at despite a bad review, so it was very touching to see how dedicated Mr. Gregory was to 4 people's satisfaction. Despite our bad experience our feelings toward this establishment have changed and we will most likely dine here again, after all when the food is cooked correctly is really GOOD! read more

The shrimp & grits were terrific and the atmosphere was really low-country coastal (aka lazy afternoon at the beach). The downside was simply in the location, it can be hard to find & the parking lot is long and narrow. It was family friendly and even has an area for kids to make chalk drawings on the sidewalk. Overall a very good value at about $8-10 per person @ lunch read more

The first course was excellent. The steak was smoothered with too much crab sauce. We ate outside, and thoroughly enjoyed the setting.

Very loud, long waits, and the food is only ok. Waitstaff pretty good, parking limited, good views for the people that get seated in that room. I had shrimp and grits, certainly not the best I ever had. My wife had tilapia, and did not like her meal at all. Our guests were not impressed with their meals either. read more

I will never understand why this restaurant is always so crowded. My father and I have stopped by several times, but were told the wait would be close to an hour. Finally, several members of my family and I decided to wait for 45 minutes, or so the hostess told us. After waiting for almost an hour and a half, we were seated and or drink orders and appetizer orders were taken. The appetizers came out fairly quickly, but we were made to wait another hour on our entrees as our waitress apologized for the kitchen being "a bit backed up." Once our food finally came, we found that our food was cold, bland, and completely unsatisfying. As well as this, most of our orders were mixed up, or lacking something we had ordered on the side. Long story short, we will NEVER be dining here again. read more

After multiple efforts to reach a sales guy in an effort to purchase a boat, I finally gave up. The staff is more interested in taking trips to boat shows than they are actually selling boats. I did have a salesman (Jeffrey) call me about 6 hours later and describe some boats they had on the salesroom floor that might meet my needs. After letting him know I was on my way and would be there within the hour, I arrive to find he had left for lunch and I would have to wait. I used the time to look at the boats he described, to find that HHB was has a fetish for camouflage....every G3 boat they had on the lot with the exception of 2 ill equipped ones were camouflage painted. This may partially explain why they also have several 2016 boats in their showroom when it's 2018. Poor customer service....avoid this place....the other salesman just looked at me as I walked through the showroom. read more

Excellent food with a wide selection. Everything was well prepared and presented. Seafood medleys and Captain's Choice grill were especially enjoyed. We have been before and were not disappointed. The coconut shrimp was a special hit. read more
