    Our server Jodi made the evening special. The scallops were the best of the apps and the Branzini was excellent. The chocolate dessert was average as was the bread. The wines were great.

    It is our go to restaurant for Christmas Eve. Jody did a great job. We had the special feast of the seven fishes. It was a lot of food and done well. I am Sicilian and my grandparents made the feast of the seven fishes every Christmas Eve. It was our family tradition. We have come for the last 3 years since we moved to Bluffton.

    We have been to this restaurant several times over the years and have never been disappointed. However, last night‘s experience was less than we expected. Drinks and appetizers were fine. However, our entrées, halibut and venison, came out just warm. Even the sides, the spinach and potatoes were just barely warm. We sent them back and they were replaced again with just warm food. I’ve never had this experience there before. It was a special occasion, but less than what we were expecting.

    OMBRA is our favorite Italian restaurant in the Low Country. The food selections are amazing and all are delicious so choosing is difficult. The wine offerings are great with some wines even being affordable. The service is impeccable. Our server was Gaston who made a point of learning and using our names. Conversation with him was a highlight of our visit.
