We went on vacation to Hilton Head Beach in South Carolina and we found some really great food establishments there and along the way. Here’s just a few of them,enjoy!
This place bills itself as a seafood and sushi restaurant. We were skeptical of the sushi at first,but we went ahead and ordered the Alligator roll and the Lobster roll:the Alligator meat was a bit chewy,but we really enjoyed the Lobster which tasted very fresh. Good,but we’ve had better sushi. The entrees won us over! The Swordfish special of the day was pretty good,great presentation. We would’ve taken pictures but we forgot our camera =( But believe it or not,the best dish we had was a non-seafood one –Braised Pork Osso Buco. Enormous,tender fall-off-the-bone meat which was absolutely delicious (meat-lovers ftw!),and also comes with a hearty side of eggplant parmesan and garlic potatoes. I was secretly thrilled that there was some (decent) italian food served in said asian-fusion atmosphere =)

A true dive place,if it weren’t for all the buzz about it being featured on Rachel Ray’s “$40 a Day.”The line for this was looong but it’s got some of the best seafood around,for a great price! If you like spicy,they’ve got some great cajun-style blackened seafood. You can get just about anything blackened,fried or grilled here:scallops,tilapia,grouper,oysters,etc. Their sides are pretty varied:mac n’cheese (gooey,cheesy,had 3+ types of cheeses),okra and sundried tomato (yummy!), coleslaw (eh,it was o.k.),hushpuppies (small fried balls of goodness),and more (which weren’t worth remembering).
This was our last and best restaurant we went to on our vacation! We had a gift certificate to this place and decided hit up their happy hour for their specials. The bartender Diego concocted some of the best hurricanes I’ve had – Bacardi 151,Malibu passionfruit rum,pineapple juice,orange juice…what could be better? Crab legs were big,juicy,and freshfreshfresh. The sushi nachos,crispy pita bread with slices of raw tuna,were recommended on Yelp but were heavy on the teriyaki sauce. Entrees were ginourmous! The Broiled Seafood Medley was pretty good,had a ton of lima beans in their rice side. The Lobster bake special was great:clams and mussels were so-so but the Lobster was delicious. Drink count for our party:4 Hurricanes,2 Mojitos,1 Margarita,and 2 Cherry Cokes

That Sea Shack and hurricane sound *amazing*.
