We had never heard of Zunzibar before despite having been to Hilton Head a few times and are thrilled we discovered it. We went for lunch, it was very slow, super chill, relaxed vibe. Perfect with a small child. I got the Johnny Chow sandwich. There's so much meat and the different meats really pair well together, the sausage and the chicken curry mix and it's absolutely delicious. Super creative sandwich too. Almost like an Indian cheese steak sandwich, but so elevated. Even the chips on the side are well seasoned and I don't normally like chips. Other great thing about Zunzibar is the sauces. They've got so many options and I loved that the Johnny Chow came with both the curry and the chutney. Had an amazing time, food was incredible, will definitely return next vacation. read more

I don't leave many 5 stars. This place deserves it and should be busier than they are. It's a little hidden gem on the island. The bartender Dawn was AMAZING!! I asked for her recommendation and went with it. Don't ask me to spell it or pronounce it. It's in the picture. And above the god father on the menu. It was well worth the price. The flavor profile was soooo good! The homemade chips with Vodoo seasoning was fire!!! I'll definitely be back again. Hope they get busier. Cause this place is lit! read more

The live music, neon aqua blue color scheme, swings and beach theme made this place feel quite festive and inviting. The staff members were welcoming and friendly. The host took the time to explain all the different sauces they offer for purchase. She also offered to take pictures of us on the swings photo spot op. We had some time to wait for our order to be ready and thought she was very kind to make conversation and take pictures for us. The food was great. The chicken wings were hearty sized. The sauces all had their unique flavor. Our favorites were the Chutney and Lemon Pepper. The Dank was good. It had a unique dill & mayonnaise flavor. I typically like "saucy" wings but this lemon pepper was good because it wasn't exorbitantly salty. Although we ordered the Johnny Chow as a lettuce wrap, it was quite robust and filling. The meat was flavorful and moist. We really enjoyed the fusion of all the unique flavors. read more

Quick and easy dinner at the Hilton Head location. Friendly service and while the food menu wasn't that big (seemed like a big drink menu emphasis), what we ate was great: Oysters Rockefeller and a salmon sandwich! The chips had some type of spicy seasoning that still retained its flavor the next day, and stayed crunchy. Appreciate that there was live music on the patio! read more

I visited for an early dinner with a friend. We got seated quickly and enjoyed the laid back vibe. Our server was helpful with the menu options. We even got to speak with the manager and learned about the wooden nickel voucher. I settled on the wings with chips and a lemony thicket drink. My friend got the falafel bites. The dank sauce was surprising good on the wings. We also learned the menu will be changing and I look forward to seeing what's new at my next visit. read more

I'm from Savannah and was taking my dog to HHI beach for her birthday! Last year, we were asked to leave a neighboring business who was not dog friendly (although completely outdoors), so I am thrilled to have a dog friendly bar and restaurant that I already know and love on HHI. For starters, I was shocked to see how large both the inside and outside dining areas are. I was thrilled to see the restrooms were indoors too! Savannah and Tybee restrooms are outside the bar. The outdoor patio was next to a small lagoon that was home to several alligators. This is typical for this area, so keep an eye on your small pets over there. The staff was so friendly and welcoming to my birthday girl (dog) and my friend's dog who were both with us. They provided an XL water bowl full to the top. We ordered a Lekkr spread and Slaap Chips to start. Slaap chips were on $5 special for 26 Club members, and hummus at Zunzibar is a must. For dinner, my friends ordered falafel bites, wings, and a godfather sandwich. I enjoyed the Oliver's lunch bowl with falafel, which pairs perfectly with the Shit Yeah sauce. I also enjoyed the cactus pear pomegranate margarita, which was $4 off for 26 Club happy hour. All of my friends are in the 26 Club (texting club, you need to sign up if you aren't in it!). We all received 10% off our checks for happy hour. We asked two servers for plates, napkins and utensils when the apps came out and never received them. We did get utensils with the entrees but we're on our own for sharing the apps. At the end, we asked for to go cups for our teas and waters and did not receive them. The bar was not busy at all, so the extra attention to details with this would have been great. This was not a deterrent from returning or losing a star on their review though! read more

The atmosphere was very casual and bright. Family place for sure. The server was attentive and nice. It was kind of quiet since the crazy season had not officially begun. I ordered the pound of crab legs, which were cooked very well and came with no sides, just clarified butter. For $26 there should be at least one side. My wife ordered the falafel roll. These balls of falafel came out on a sub roll. Kind of overkill for falafel. The hot chips were cold. She said they were tasty but didn't eat all of the bread. I got a side salad and it was fine. They ass 2.6% for their food guarantee. If you don't like the food they'll refund your money with a gift card? I would imagine it's for the same restaurant. A little weird. They had live music and he was pleasant and sang low key music. Nice touch. Fun place, but there's better food on the island. A little pricey for sure. Apps limited. Probably wouldn't go a second time. read more

Delicious. Our first restaurant stop at Hilton Head. Delicious. We got the salmon sandwich with lettuce wrap. The mega sandwich with 2 sausages and chicken and some wings. Everything was great. All the sauces and dips were great. Everything was well seasoned and the homemade chips were fabulous. Service / waiters were really nice and inviting. We ate outside on the patio which was very pleasant as well. read more

I loved the Savannah location so I was excited to try the Hilton Head location! I love the size of this location and the amount of tables they have! I love that the bar is in the middle and they have outdoor seating. They also have a cornhole set up outside as well. Our waiter Kenny was nice, attentive and friendly. The other waitress, bartender and hostess were all friendly as well. Our food came out quickly and it was delicious! They are known for their sauces and they are delicious! We signed up for the 26 club and were given free koozie's. There is plenty of parking and the bathrooms are clean! I recommend trying this location if you are in the area! read more

12/10. Came to Zunzibar on a Monday evening and was immediately so happy we did. There was incredible live music (that had the perfect volume - I we were sitting closest to him and never felt like we were yelling to talk or that it was overwhelming), the drinks were amazing, and the service was top notch. If you want somewhere that has great drinks, a laid-back atmosphere, and Instagram-worthy decor, definitely check them out! We will absolutely be back. read more

Zunzibar - The Banana Hammock. Absolutely delicious. - Bars Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

Went here with a large group on a family vacation and it was a good family friendly option with options for all dietary needs. It was also decorated pretty cutely - especially love the swings at the entrance. Drinks were kind of pricey but all were solid, tropical fruity options. I opted for the falafel roll but on pita and enjoyed it and everyone else seemed to enjoy their food as well. The house made chips were great and I definitely recommend getting the sauce sampler for lots of options. Overall, most of the food was nothing super special but still solid and appreciate that they could get our large group in at the last minute. My main complaint here was the live music. The performer himself was really good but the speakers were absolutely terrible and so loud. Please replace your speakers! read more

This is a cool new spot in HHI. We enjoyed frozen spicy mango margaritas, wings, and their sauce flight with chips, as well as the Conquistador sandwich. Their menu is a mix of American, Greek, and Indian flavors. The chips are dark, crispy, and appear house made. Served naked, the wings were meaty, and my husband enjoyed the spicier sauces on the sauce flight along with them. I enjoyed dipping the chips into the chutney, which was a sweet and salty experience! The Conquistador sandwich was served on fresh and soft French bread, and the chicken was marinated/seasoned with the most delicious flavors. Topped with lettuce, tomato, parmesan cheese, and dressing, each bite was heavenly! Service was fast and friendly. Recently opened, they are in their infancy and not getting the crowds they should. The food is exceptional, so I predict that soon there will be a wait. There was great music on the patio, and there's cornhole, picnic tables and Adirondack chairs out front. I did think the inside dining and bar was too brightly lit, but it could also be interpreted as clean and bright. It's all subjective. Either way, it's a must try for a meal in Hilton Head. read more

Found this gem on our visit to HHI. Great place, great service, amazing food. We ordered the peri peri wings, falafel bites and kids' meals. Service was quick. All our food was delicious. I wish I had got the larger size of wings because 10 weren't enough after our 7-year old decided to dig in too The falafel with tzatziki sauce was delicious too. The mango tango drink was delicious. It's pre-made so they can bring you a sample to try before you order. Can't wait to be back on our next visit! read more

We love Zunzi's and have visited the flagship location in Savannah several times. We were excited to check out the new Hilton Head location and we could've have had a better experience! Everything was delicious--The Conquistador is hands down our favorite chicken sandwich. The ingredients are fresh and full of flavor. Dawn went above and beyond and we can't wait to eat here again! read more

My wife and I ate here while we spent a week in HH. We ate out every night we were there. This was not originally on our list of must try restaurants but we stumbled across this one after deciding not to drive far for dinner one night. First impression when we got there (empty parking lot) was "wow this place is either closed or the food is awful". We waited at least 30 minutes at every other restaurant we went to in HH, but we walked right in and were seated immediately. There was one table taken and like 3 people at the bar. We basically already knew we wanted the seafood feast but the waitress talked us into the chips (which were a cool appetizer, some of the sauces I bet are great on wings BTW). The crab, shrimp, and sides were great. We had crab legs a few times that week and these may have been the best! A plus was that the service was great! Our waitress was very attentive but not annoying considering we were probably her only table for at least the first 30 minutes we were there. With all of that said: -food was great (especially for the quantity and price) and I highly recommend this spot if you're visiting. I think even after the chips, the feast, and a few beers we spent like $110 with tip. I am still so shocked at how dead this place was. Try it out if you're in Hilton head!! read more

Great vibe inside. I appreciate the disco ball and swings! The wings were cooked to perfection and so moist but the dank sauce was a little mild for me. The conquistador was huge and pretty good too. I liked the chips but thought they could have more seasoning. read more

Zunzibar - The chip and dip appetizer! - Bars Near Me - Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

Well. Where to start. New spot, quirky menu, let's do this! First and foremost, food is very good. Everything across the board was fresh, unique and had great flavor. Now the rest. We requested to sit outside. The two man band they had were talented musicians. But, it was way too loud for a place that three tables in it. And they only played originals. Again, more power to them, they were good musicians, but we made the fourth table and no one knew a single song and we had to yell to hear each other at the table. Ryan was a good guy, but the service was dreadful. A side of sauce...15 mins, and that's after we walked in to use the restroom and remind him. Mind you, there's only two tables now. Food was very good and if someone wants to try this sometime, we would come back, otherwise I'm not sure. read more

Saw the reviews on Yelp and thought we would give this a try. This is a newer restaurant that is so cool. Very clean and spacious, great outdoor seating - covered and uncovered. The servers were so nice and attentive. Shout out to our server- Marceli!! The food, they have something for everyone from kids on up. We shared the falafel roll with the OMG homemade chips and the Dank dip. So fun and yummy. We will be back! I have to say that there was another server for the tables around us and she was just as kind as our server. I mention this as it is just that kind of vibe....good people. read more

We had a pleasant experience and every accommodation was made for our large party. Our waitress was great. I loved the live music. The chips are delicious and I loved trying all of the various types of sauces. The curry wings are wet and spicy. They were so delicious. I loved the way the salmon was cooked on my Fisherman's Deck sandwich I got with the pita bread. This is a very casual, sports bar type location. Parking is free and ample. We had a memorable, pleasant experience and dined outside due to our larger party. I recommend them for a lunch, dinner, or while watching a game. read more

First of all, I gotta say that the service was awesome. Our little server, and I can't remember her name. I'm sorry, she had all sorts of suggestions on what to try and what is good what she liked what we might like. I got them some sort of a sandwich that had like all the meat on it, including a meat from Africa. So that's what I wanted to try is an African meat. I'm not sure if it was maybe a zebra or what it was. Actually I'm gonna get a description of that sandwich and send it to somebody. The atmosphere was awesome. Now with a sandwich came it was Really spicy for me. But my friend he ate all his and I saved half of mine. The drinks were odd, but good. I had some sort of a margarita that was tasty. read more

Loved it ! On a very rainy day on our way down to Hilton Head beach, we stopped here with our fur baby (dogs welcome unlike the other new brewery down the road - stupid is stupid does). Our server was amazing and lit the fireplace even though we were the only table on the deck at first. Moments after she turned on the fireplace, several other tables joined us. Food was to die food. Seriously, don't judge a book by its cover. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. IPA options could be better, but that won't stop my from 5 STAR review and coming back as much as I can. read more

If you're looking to try something different after a day on the beach then come here. We've never a Had South African food but this was top notch. The food was well seasoned. The service was great.

Wow ... we were surprised that our experience was not more positive based upon other reviews ... We were a party of 8 with 3 of us having positive experiences (2 yummy Conquistador (chicken) sandwiches & boil) and the other 5 not so much ... The wings were "eh" at best, the Godfather (sausage) was super spicy & the peel & eat shrimp was "ok" (a disappointment for being so close to the beach) The service was great! The sauces are really unusual- taste before putting on your food! The ambiance was seriously lacking! We liked the tea & were pleased with our cocktails ... With so many GREAT places to dine at in HHI I'd expect better ... sorry, won't be back read more

Played tourist for the day and went to Coligny followed by a late lunch at Zunzibar. Had the opportunity to wait and play cornhole, but decided to be seated immediately. Greeted by island music and optimism, we decided on drinks, which consisted of an ocean water and a mango frozen drink, both were accompanied by tropical umbrellas and garnished with fresh fruit. Started with the sauce sampler. Worth it to try all the sauces. Our meals consisted of a curry chicken sandwich, wings, and two kids meals. We loved it all. Service was the best service I've had while on the island. Bathrooms are extremely clean and well kept. We will definitely be back. read more
