Short ribs are a must. Adam the bartender was attentive and very friendly! Will be returning

Food was delicious! My family and I are vacationing from Southern California and my 8 year old nephew had his bday while we here. We found this spot online and my nephew got excited when he saw the pics. It was worth the wait; Angel was a nice waitress and made sure we were great read more

Ambiance is excellent. We are outside under the covered patio and it was very comfortable with the fans. Our server was excellent, very attentive, cheerful, and helpful. There was 6 of us (2 children) and everyone found something they enjoyed. Hubby's fried chicken was very moist. I had the vegetable rice bowl which was very fresh and tasty. I love that they source their food from local farms! read more

Ambiance 4/5 - We sat indoors which was very nice. They have a cool bat and lots of outdoor seating under sun shades Service 5/5 Goddess (The Indian translation) was our server. She was great. Our drinks, apps and entrees came out quickly and correctly Food: 4/5 I had a beer, oysters and Jambalaya. The oysters were delicious and jambalaya was great. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. So tender!!! read more

Amazing brunch 2pm on a Thursday. Broad menu, many enticing options but when I saw chicken and waffles, I knew I had to have it. So good! I only ate half, along with a bacon Bloody Mary. My hubby had an olly omelet, and our friend had Sheba soup and shrimp salad combo. Really fun server, relaxed environment- I wish these were local to me! read more

I appreciated their lunch special of soup and salad and biscuit, especially once the waitress said they could do any soup. I chose the chicken soup, which I didn't realize was a creamy chicken soup rather than clear broth. It was still pretty tasty. The salad had an interesting tomato vinaigrette and killer crispy black eyed peas as a topping (so unique I've never had that before). The biscuit was mass produced (sliced from a slab) so it could have been flakier but it was still tasty. Also introduced myself to half sweet and half unsweet tea - very refreshing!

Casual restaurant in beautiful old town Bluffton. I love the indoor/outdoor spaces, the staff couldn't be any better, and the food is delicious.

First time here for lunch with friends. Glad we did--it was worth it! Service was good on a busy day. Parking a little tight. Dining room large with plenty of tables with no noise. The main event was the menu. It is large with many good offerings-makes it hard to select what you want. Have to go back to try different items on the menu. They have a nice specials menu. Fried green tomatoes were the hit. Fried green tomato appetizer very good. Fried green tomato & bacon sandwich was outstanding with a side of large specialty fries. Price for lunch was fair & competitive. read more

Regan was an amazing server! The food was great and the servings very generous. The scoop of the day is a must do. read more

We were recommended this place by our concierge for the farm to table and biscuit basket The biscuits were awesome half plain biscuits, half sweet potato biscuits, fluffy and so good. The outdoor courtyard patio had lots of fans also had an outdoor bar No flies bothered us. Everyone liked their food. The collard greens were a little bitter. The hush puppies were spot on and the she crab soup was a little too thick with cornstarch and not enough sherry for my liking but I would still recommend going. read more

We went to Nectar for brunch on Sunday after church. My wife had the southern poutine fries which were delicious. I had the crab cake Benedict which was really good, it had a bit of a spicy kick to it. The place was super busy, but we were seared fairly quickly and our server offered menu suggestions about her favorites which helped me select the Benedict. read more

Had a very nice dinner at Nectar Farm. We decided to order a few appetizers first and then share one of their bowls. We started with the she crab soup and the tomato hand pie. Both were tasty. The hand pie had a nice flaky crust that my wife enjoyed. Next we ordered a crab cake and the poutine. I thought these two dishes were the highlight of the meal. The crab cake had tons of crab and wasn't overpowered by other unnecessary fillers or flavors. Perfect. The poutine was also incredible. The pork had so much flavor! We finished the night out by sharing the butcher's bowl. Unfortunately, this one fell a little flat. The steak was cooked perfectly and was delicious. But the whole dish seemed to lack flavor. Maybe some sort of sauce to go with it would have helped. But we still had a great experience. Love the outdoor seating, the waitress was friendly and attentive, and the food was very good. read more

Incredible food, fantastic service, beautiful space, and on-brand merch and goodies available for purchase! My friends and I each ordered a glass of white wine. We split the hush puppies (perfection) and I ordered their soup special (sausage and pea, so cozy) and then got the butcher bowl which had A+ filet, fresh greens and veggies, and rice (phenomenal). Truly zero complaints. Our server was delightful, the food was amazing, and I wish there was a Nectar back in Tampa where I live! read more

I was slightly disappointed in this restaurant. Looking online, the menu looks fabulous, and the pictures of the restaurant looked, darling. But when we got there, I felt like the restaurant had seen its heyday and was a little bit tired. The servers seemed tired as well. Our food could've been amazing, but just didn'tmeet the Mark. Not sure if I would return. read more

Historically a favorite, but a series of service lapses this visit I have always loved Nectar Farm and have consistently had great food and experiences here in the past. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was a significant letdown across the board. Despite having a confirmed reservation for a 4-top table indoors, the host was unable to honor it. We were first offered a table outside directly next to a loud band in the hot sun. When I declined, the only other option offered was upstairs. This was quite difficult as two members of my party have mobility issues and struggle with stairs. Once seated, the atmosphere was chaotic due to a large private party sharing the space. The service timing was also off; our main courses arrived less than two minutes after our appetizers. While the food tasted good, the portions were surprisingly small. My fried shrimp entree was a very meager serving--I actually had to eat again shortly after arriving home. To top it off, there was significant confusion with the billing at the end, requiring the server to redo the tickets. I truly hope this was just an "off" night, as the quality of service did not match the reputation I've come to expect from Nectar. read more

The food was very authentic southern cuisine. It was great, from the coffee to the donuts, to the lunch we ate. Every meal was delicious! There was no wait time on a Saturday morning for brunch! The staff were very friendly and kind. No complaints! Everything was DELICIOUS Will come back when in the area! read more

Nectar Farm Kitchen is a lovely casual restaurant. The indoor and outdoor space can accommodate an individual to a large group. The restaurant has its own parking lot. It is a decent size. Depending upon how busy they are it can become difficult to get a spot. There is designated golf cart parking too. Folks will park their cars in awkward spots sometimes. Just be aware you may have to do some creative three to five point turns to get out of your spot if the lot is full and someone parked behind you. The menu is priced appropriately. The ambiance and seating inside and outside is well thought out. We sat inside next to the bar on a high top. The seats were comfortable. The restrooms were to our left. We arrived in time to still be seated for brunch on Saturday. The menu is expansive. We ordered the fried green tomatoes as the starter. It comes with bacon jam, goat feta, and a remoulade. The dish was lacking salt. And the bacon jam was unfortunately more like the consistency of bacon jelly with tiny bits of bacon. My husband ordered the duck hash and a side of mac and cheese. Again salt was needed to all, once added he enjoyed his meal. He especially enjoyed the sweet potato biscuit that came with it. He said the mac and cheese was ok. I ordered the bacon tomato sandwich. It was not built well. I had to take it upon myself to rebuild part of the sandwich. The bread which was toasted to perfection, was too big for the sandwich. I ended up ripping off a good bit of it so I would not eat straight bread. The fry chips were delicious, once I added salt. Those were honestly my favorite part of the entire meal! I could eat an entire basket of those fry chips with honey mustard or ranch! They are scrumptious! The service was ok. Our server was polite. She should have checked on us more. And the hostess when we first came in seemed to be having a rough day. But we have all had bad days. Overall I feel that maybe we could have come on an off day is what I am hoping. read more

Both the food and the service were excellent. The ambience was good, however, the table was a little cramped.

Perfect lunch stop! We were in between breakfast and lunch so most of our group leaned into egg-based dishes. My Mother Earth omelette was almost spot on, though the eggs were a bit over cooked, but the veggies were plentiful and a sweet potato biscuit felt like the perfect complement. The food is fresh and locally sourced and the coffee on offer is good too-- plus, make sure you get the house-made compote (which pairs perfectly with the biscuit, fyi). Service was fun but attentive, and we had a great rapport with Reagan, so all in all a great meal from start to finish. The interior is casual with slightly a funky vibe, though the space is fairly small inside with a few tables and booths and a separate bar at the back with stools. There' plenty of room outside though with an expansive covered outdoor patio area though that seems to be weather dependent. Open for dinner too. read more

Their sausage was freshly made and not a frozen patties, hash browns and bacon cooked perfectly, and the gravy used in the Kitchen Sink Bowl was savory and full of flavor.

We sat at the bar for Brunch- bartender was very friendly and attentive. Lots of drink choices, coffee was delicious though! and we had the eggs Benedict and chilaquiles bowl. Both were great! Thought the bowl needed some meat but other than that would def go back, great outside area with live music and would be fun to sit outside if weather was better. There is outside bar area too. read more

Tried this place for breakfast and it didn't disappoint. The food is awesome I haven't tried a dish I didn't like yet. The service is great they are super friendly and have a little toy box for kids when they leave. They have an outside patio with music or you can sit inside. Parking is a hit or miss because it's in the back but it gets filled very quickly, there is extra parking across the street and you can just walk over. Tons of little shops in the area for when you're done eating. This is a must try spot. read more

Great experience, busy on a Monday at lunch but they were able to seat us right away. Huge drink and food menu, we loved everything we ordered especially the southern poutine, this may be the least overwhelming poutine I have ever tried, great ratio of chips, gravy and meat. The seafood was great tasting too. We definitely want to come back and try more dishes. Why have I not been here before, love this place! read more

On a busy Saturday night, we made reservations and we're promptly seated. Our server was very friendly and suggested a couple of cocktails which we've got and then the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer was delicious. All the meals were very good. The shrimp crab and grits was the stand out in my favorite. Prices were very reasonable and portions were very good size. Well done nectar staff. read more

Only had one night in Old Town Bluffton and was told this was the place to go. I wasn't super hungry, so I stuck to a variety of appetizers. Hush Puppies were good, quite large and very crispy. The peel and eat shrimp were excellent! They were so tender, not overcooked by even a minute and seasoned perfectly. The tomato hand pie, which I was most excited to try, is the one that disappointed the most. Could be bc tomatoes aren't quite in season yet, and I think they'd be easier to eat if the tomato was sliced, and not diced. But none-the-less a clever and unique add to the menu. Bar service was fine, pleasant servers. read more

Super cute restaurant in Bluffton! Great location in their quaint downtown area and we were seated immediately in the patio bar at high tables. If you want an actual table and you're coming at dinner time you'll likely have to wait. Our waitress was friendly but did not do a good job with service. The patio was not very crowded and she kept disappearing and not taking our order. We finally flag her down to put it in, and our food took almost an hour to come out. She also just kept saying "it's coming and ready in the kitchen" every time she walked by even though we still waited another 15,30,45 minutes. The live music was nice and my bowl was great! Super healthy and lite. Not really enough to be a meal unless you add the additional meats. read more

I went to Nectar with my lady friend and another couple the other night. I ordered the Surf & Turf Trio. The crab cake was good. The shrimp were OK. My filet mignon which I ordered medium rare was over cooked to the point of being almost well done. I asked for butter for my mashed potatoes, but they were so cold that they did not melt the butter. The vegetable side was over cooked and mushy. Our server was OK. The ambiance is nice. read more

Time and Date; March 28 at 6:57pm Staff: Friendly and welcoming Ambiance: Nice environment Prices: Average or above average depending on the food you get off the menu Starter: Crab Cake Entree: Half Fried Chicken Side: Bradford Sweet Fries Dessert: Triple Layer Chocolate Cake Starter: Crab Cake was delicious. The salad it came with was decent, not to my taste buds but could be for yours. All of the food was fresh. The hollandaise was pretty good, first time trying hollandaise as well. Entree: Half Fried Chicken was okay. The creamy Mac and Cheese and Bacon Collard were delicious. Side: Bradford Sweet Fries was basically sweet potato fries. They were okay, I had better ones from other restaurants. Maybe, they will do their best to give me a redo. Dessert: The Triple Layer Chocolate cake was very delicious. Although, they weren't a variety of desserts: the chocolate cake was good. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. Follow me on TikTok @ladyisreal23 and on IG @ladyisreal read more

We've only been twice in the last couple years but it was great both times. Sunday was the second time and we had a party of 10. We were sat quickly inside and kids had their own table next to us. The waitress ( wish I could remember her name), was charismatic, friendly and very attentive. Everyone's food was very good. From omelettes to waffles to crab dip, nothing but good reviews. It's a charming place with indoor seating and a bar you can also eat at. The outside area is large with umbrella tables, live music (not too loud) and a larger bar area. It gets packed and the parking is limited in the back so park on the street or across the restaurant. Great place and Old Town is very charming. read more

I was visiting Bluffton for a family reunion and a lot of us met up here for dinner for the first night being in town. We had a big group, and sat outside. Service was great. It was accurate, good timing, and our server was friendly. There was a singer with a guitar performing too and he was great- our kiddo loved dancing to him. The food itself, wow. I bought a bunch of apps to share with my husband and kid, and all was so delicious . The crab bisque was incredible. Even the simple chocolate cake was SO yummy! The food was so good we decided to go back here again the last morning we were in town- we had brunch. Everything again tasted very fresh and tasty! read more

Tucked into downtown Bluffton, this is a charming restaurant surrounded by beautiful old buildings. We sat outside in the shade on a late August evening. The fans and shade were able to keep up making it comfortable enough to stay for dinner. We started with the crab dip. I would not recommend this dish. The portion was small for the money with very little crab to be found. Also as you can see from the photo it was greasy which was a first for me in my crab dip escapades. The tortilla chips they serve with it were too thick making them very hard (think break a tooth) and they had no flavor. When our waitress checked in with us we told her about the chips and she offered a baguette. 10 minutes later she came back with 4 slices of toasted bread that we were charged $3 for. For dinner we got the spicy chicken and pickles sandwich and the farm bowl. The farm stand bowl was ok if you were like us and looking for a healthy counterbalance to the fried chicken. I thought the chicken sandwich was tasty though the bottom slice came soaked making it difficult to eat. read more

5 Stars for ambiance and venue 5 stars for food selections for omnivores 4 stars for the 2 vegan options but zero stars for food taste. The vegan bowl had amazing ingredients but oil is not seasoning. Next time try roasting those wonderful veggies in a nice balsamic instead of oil and add seasonings like oregano, garlic, a fresh squeezed orange and a few dried cranberries stirred in before serving. Your clientele must include a few plant based eaters. Final tip, when young children are there to dine start them with a tiny plate of fresh fruit and veggies, a couple of crackers and water. Their waiting is stressful for them, their families and other patrons. All the omnivores looked very happy read more

We decided to eat here while walking around Old Town Bluffton. The site is newly remodeled and very stylish. The building used to house a brewery and hamburger restaurant when we last visited the area. We had fried green tomatoes for a starter. Our entrees were the country Cobb salad and shrimp, crab, and grits. All were very good. Our server, Madison, was excellent. We likely will return on our next visit to the area. read more
