We were visiting St Simon's and a friend recommended that we stop here. Well, I couldn't be happier…read morethat we took her advice as we stopped once for lunch and got takeout for dinner two days later. The sliced brisket sandwich was piled high with tender delicious brisket. Loved the spicy sauce and the side of mac and cheese was also delicious. We got takeout of smoked turkey, baked beans and potato salad. What a dinner! The turkey was phenomenal as were the sides. I only wish they weren't 1000 miles away.

Wow! This was the highlight of my trip. Well worth the drive…read more First the pricing seems very fair for what you get. Ok ok, ribs are not suppose to fall off the bone when you pick them up. That is over cooked. These were perfect! They stayed on the bone all the way up to the bite. The brisket was spot on. I loved that the sauces were on the side as you could try it with just the seasoning on the meat and then with the sauce. Their mustard sauce was amazing. We don't have bbq like this in cali. We don't. Just like we don't have NY pizza, true NY pizza. I bought a bottle of sauce.... And it's gone already. Thank goodness they have a store online and I'm just waiting for my shipment to arrive. You have to try this place! Ohhhh and I never had Brunswick stew!!!! Omg delicious

The wait time is not long at all and you can enjoy all of the fun people there enjoying themselves also it's an experience.

So I come back a month later, sat at the bar just like last time. This time I ordered the she crab…read moresoup absolutely delicious wow is all I can say. But unlike last time the dude at the bar charges me for the freaking bread, WTF. Last time I was there they didn't charge for the bread so I had to redo my score to a 3 just so it hurts you a little bit. Look man I don't make a lot of money I'm not on vacation 15 bucks for lunch is a lot for me, and you charged me for the fricking bread. Oh yeah and on your website says the soup is $10.95 and you charged me $11.95 and $1 for the bread that's why you got a lousy 15% tip. I would've tipped you 30% I get it, if I would ask for extra bread you could charge but what if I didn't even like that pumpkin bread man if you're gonna charge for the bread then say hey what would you like in your basket since I'm gonna charge you. Well I won't be coming back again either forget the shrimp and grits I'm over it. G

There seems to be a more spacious feeling to the restaurant and the brick work is now a bit lighter in color. As always, the scallops were cooked to perfection as well as the salmon! This place always has a great vibe! I have written a couple of other reviews on Yelp or maybe it was Open Table for Crabdaddy's in the past and always 5 stars. I've been coming here for 30 years and never have had a negative experience! If visiting or new to the island put this on the list you won't leave disappointed. Strongly encourage making reservations as they're always busy! That's a good thing!

I've eaten here probably five times over the past year and a half and it rarely disappoints…read more Definitely an island stalwart. You can't go wrong with the crab soup as a starter. Any fish over angel hair pasta is exceptional. Their blackened fish can be hit or miss... had the blackened grouper last week and it was good, but a little heavy on the seasoning, at the expense of being able to taste the fish. And the bread pudding, my god, the bread pudding. This is one of my all-time favorite desserts and I would put Crabdaddy's bread pudding up against any other restaurant on the island. Service is usually excellent, too. Easily in my top five restaurants on SSI.

This place is one of St.Simons Island's hidden gems! Featuring a mix of seafood and American-style…read morecuisine with some southern flair, the food is quite delicious! I highly recommend their buffalo crab dip, a concoction that is a buffalo cheese dip served with fresh lump crab. You can really taste the crab in this dish. They don't skimp on it at all. The most clever thing that they did here, though, is to serve it with wonton chips. It's something that's truly unique, as most restaurants would serve a dish like this with regular chips. The wonton chips are a treat unto themselves, having great wonton flavor. However, when you combine it with the dip, it really takes it over the top. Highly recommend. For my entree, I had their Cajun Alfredo pasta. It is linguine served in a "Cajun-spiced Alfredo sauce". It is "served with tasso and smoked sausage", and you can choose to have it with either chicken or wild GA shrimp. In either case, once again, they do not skimp . You get a heaping portion of either chicken or shrimp, and the sauce is very tasty. It is just as described, an Alfredo sauce with a little Cajun flavor, though it is not spicy. It is served with no sides, but no sides are necessary as it is a hearty portion all by itself. Very delicious. The most impressive thing that I saw is that the owner is very hands-on. They have these new-fangled mobile electronic lamps, and the owner came by and noticed that ours wasn't quite working. He replaced it immediately himself. He was very friendly and chatted us up. He also went around and was serving and clearing tables himself. It seems that if you eat here, there's a strong possibility that you could end up meeting the owner! Meeting him was a very nice touch. The only thing that I had a hard time with here was choosing a dish because everything looked so good on the menu! Delicious food and great service. I strongly recommend this place!

We checked out Palmer's Cafe shortly after their recent renovation and on one of their first nights…read moreopen for dinner--so glad we did! The space looks great, and it was exciting to see them expanding into dinner service. I went in craving a good burger and ordered the Smashburger, upgrading to the truffle fries... and wow. Sooo good. The burger was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and everything you want from a smash-style burger. The truffle fries were absolutely worth the upgrade--crispy, indulgent, and hard to stop eating. Overall, a great first dinner experience post-renovation. We're excited to come back and try more of the dinner menu. Highly recommend checking it out!

I am givng 3 stars because we were seated without a reservation but I have to add that I checked…read moretheir website to make a reservation and reservations were not mentioned anywhere so I assumed that meant they did not take them. Maybe they only take reservations by phone, even though it is 2026, but it should say something to that effect on their website. It was evident they preferred reservations and said they were packed but there were plenty of tables unseated. The table we were seated at, was very wobbly. Which is an annoying thing that is easily fixed. I will say that the bread and the marinated saladswere both very good and our baked potatoes were perfect but that's where it ends. My son got the filet and my husband got the ribeye. They both ordered medium rare but both were well done and chewy. We did not say anything to our waitress or complain bc we are just not those kind people but it was disappointing to say the least. A steak place that has been in business for as long a they have should have perfected their steaks, I got the grilled chicken and when it came, I thought they had brought me fried chicken by mistake. I was expecting a grilled chicken breast (my mistake for assuming) but it was 4 pieces of what appeared to be smoked chicken on the bone. They were pretty tasty but felt like something I would get at a bbq restaurant, not a steak house. Needless to say, we will not be back.
