• Seafood • Hilton Head
Booked 47 times today
Skull Creek Dockside Restaurant, dropped its anchor in the Fall of 2017 and forever changed the culinary landscape of the Lowcountry. In early 2017 the partners of the restaurant began to transform it into their vision for Hilton Head's newest waterfront dining destination. This restaurant, which resembles an old-style river house, is full of authentic architecture, reclaimed wood, and nautical accents that leave you feeling like you've stepped into a Melville novel. The sweeping waterfront view is showcased by full pane glass windows throughout the restaurant which you can enjoy no matter where you dine. The covered patio dining area, and massive outdoor bar, the shark bar, allows patrons to enjoy the Lowcountry climate and serve to further highlight the amazing sunset views over skull creek. If you are concerned about long wait times, the good news is the restaurant accepts reservations and provides a family recreation area between dockside and boathouse. Kids and adults can enjoy a variety of games, the very popular shark bar and 'shrimp boat' playground. Kids can play while families are waiting for a table, or simply enjoying the amazing waterfront views.

    We'd been to Frankie Bones before. This was an excellent meal with excellent service as was our previous visit. Our waitress, Karen, was outstanding. We will likely return to Frankie Bones before leaving HHI. If we do, we will ask for the same waitress, Karen. She was as good as it gets. We didn't have to ask for anything. She anticipated everything.

    Always excellent. Great dinner choices. Seabass was well prepared and very good. Salmon also great. The halibut special was just a touch dry. Good salads and traditional desserts. We always enjoy coming the Red Fish.

    Our first experience at Wiseguys was Christmas Eve dinner and it was fabulous from start to finish. We were late making plans so our original reservation was for the enclosed patio but we received a phone call that they had a high top reservation open up so we were so happy to take it! The restaurant was nicely decorated for the holiday but would be very nice any time. We each ordered something different: shrimp scampi, blackened fish, scallops, and Brussel sprouts. Everything was well presented and delicious. Although the restaurant was extremely busy, our service was exceptional. Our server checked back with us often and our drinks stayed full. This is a place that we plan to return to!
