    Deviled eggs
    Katherine B.

    My family and I came here for lunch while staying at The Cloister. A beautiful restaurant with friendly staff and good food. Our server was super attentive and accommodating. The deviled eggs were delicious, a must. On the pricy side, but all the restaurant on Sea Island are. Lunch for 3 people was approx $100. Typical for this resort. If you're looking for good food in a more upscale environment this is the place for you!

    Turkey Burger

    Perfectly fine resort lunch. I had the flavorful, moist Turkey burger while my wife enjoyed the merguez. Kids menu burgers were fine with a huge portion of fries.

    Seared Chicken Breast Sandwich, pepper relish, Vidalia onions, cheddar, and sesame bun with waffle potato chips

    Great food and service! Would have been 5 stars except for the flies congregating around tables by the windows.

    Delicious and quality food! Not pictured is the biscuit breakfast sandwich I ate before thinking to…read moreleave a review. These aren't your ordinary biscuits either; they have cheese, breakfast sausage, chorizo, and more loaded into this biscuit that adds layers of flavor. (You have the option to get the plain biscuit if you don't want to experience this amazing flavor combo). My partner got a breakfast hotdog. This was more than a gimmick item and absolutely is worth every bite. Both breakfast items came with crispy, well-seasoned tater-tots. Then we get to the Cinnamon Bun. Warm and flakey with delicious filling and sweet icing. They have different flavors available which Im sure are all amazing. The service is fast and super friendly, and I love the booth ambiance. Definitely a must eat location during your visit!!!

    Went to Ace Hardware today and decided to go back to Ripper'z and have lunch. I had the special…read morewhich was 2 hot dogs on a foot long bun with sauerkraut, grilled onions & spicy mustard with a side of fries. My wife had the other special which was grilled cheese and a cup of chicken noodle soup. Both were fantastic! The service was spot on and very friendly as both the folks working (I believe husband & wife) take, cook & deliver your order after ordering at the register. As I mentioned in my earlier review this was the old Chubs which was a breakfast/lunch spot with probably 8-10 Formica style booths. Place is very clean with great service & ample parking. If you're going to the Post Office, Ace Hardware, St Simons Pharmacy etc... time it where you can try Ripper'z.

    Very nice place. My wife and I stopped for dinner at Halyards since it was on our list of places…read morethat we wanted to try. We arrived for an early dinner and we're greeted by the hostess and bartender. Everyone was very welcoming and they offered us seating anywhere in the bar area. Even though we didn't have a reservation, we were offered seating in the dining room. Once we were seated, we ordered wine and the Apple, Pecan, and goat cheese salad (split in two plates). The server brought us both a very nice portion and we thoroughly enjoyed the salad as it was fresh and very tasty. My wife ordered the Shrimp and Grits which they are known for as being notable and I ordered the Seafood Pot Pie. The shrimp and grits were excellent with a heap of blackened shrimp over a flavorful Gouda course grits. The shrimp were cooked just right. The seafood pot pie had the blue crab bisque as the base and loaded with shrimp, white fish, salmon, and small scallops. It was topped with a puffed pastry square. The pot pie was also an excellent dish that I would definitely recommend. Next time I may come back for the crab bisque as an appetizer. This is a very nice place, with great atmosphere, and very friendly service. I would give it a 5.0 and recommend you try it.

    I found this spot when we weee staying nearby and looking for some biscuits and gravy…read more We were quickly seated and started looking over the menu. There were some great options which made choosing difficult, but we tried the biscuits and gravy (go ahead - get 2 biscuits!) and the fried chicken and biscuit. Both were great! The sandwich wasn't huge so it was a perfect amount for breakfast. We sat inside - it's very cute - with a market and to go as well as the tables. Food comes up fast and is really reasonably priced! The chicken was perfectly fried - not greasy - and the hot honey was a nice touch (and thankfully, not too hot). Good bathrooms and lots of tasty looking items in the refrigerated cases (including various types of seafood to cook).

    This is a combination restaurant, store, bakery and premade takeout place. Amazing…read more I came for a late breakfast/ lunch. I was seated right away and my order was taken quickly. I decided on a grits bowl . I was shocked at ghe size of the bowl when it was delivered a short while later. Huge is an understatement. The grits were well done, the bacon plentiful and lots of cheese. I could only finish about half of it. Really nice dish I will get again. There's not a lot of tables, and it would be hard for a large group but even if you have to wait for a table, it is worth the wait! I will return!
