Best places to eat in HHI

[Kimmysmom]

Can anyone give suggestions where to eat in and around HHI. We will be there the end of March and it is our first time.

Thanks

it's going to depend on your budget and what you like: fancy or family oriented. many, many great options, though. here are some threads to start with to give you some ideas:

Some of our favorites include Skull Creek Boathouse, The Chart House, and Dye's Gullah Fixins. We have not been pleased with Kingfisher (right across from the resort) and Alligator Grill.

Stacks! LOVE their breakfast, and can't wait to try lunch (heard they have great burgers and delicious bread pudding)..

My family likes Skull Creek Boathouse a lot. I'm planning a trip to Chart House this April. We had one when I lived in Florida, but there isn't one in Charleston.

We often order pizza from the place across the street..ummm..Guisseppi's maybe?

We did not eat out much during our first stay in HHI but DH and I went to the British Open Pub and it was fantastic......in same shopping plaza as EAT!.

We also went to the Salty Dog for lunch with our boys and it was very good, nice setting outdoors by the water.

When we went to HHI we realllllly enjoyed One Hot Mama's (cheap & and very casual BBQ) and Truffles Cafe (nice, slightly upscale casual dining). We also liked Roastfish & Cornbread for the local flare (couldn't get Dye's to call us back even after leaving like 3 messages). Just OK for us was the Alligator Grille (had a coupon from Restaurants.com so that was a help since it was a tad pricey and the portions were small) and Guiseppe's Pizza (wished we'd tried the Mellow Mushroom for pizza instead). Both of these places were OK, really, they just didn't meet the expectations as we'd heard rave reviews for the pizza at Guiseppe's and who could get full on the tiny portions at the Alligator Grille (although the food was good there just wasn't ENOUGH of it). We did NOT like the Mexican place that was right there at the harbor across from the resort (within walking distance). Not sure of the name (San Miguel's maybe)? It was one step above awful for us. Nickel & dimed us for extra sour cream and looked at us like we had 2 heads when we asked for more tortilla chips etc. (Get a grip people - it's chips and sour cream not gold!!)

If we ever go back to HHI we would definitely go back to One Hot Mamas, Truffles Cafe and likely to Roastfish & Cornbread but would skip the others in favor of trying new places.
