It’s a really nice spot next to the water. They have indoor and out door seating. And the food is delicious! They also have their own merchandise/souvenir store, a t shirt factory, and an ice cream factory. Worth the visit. Recommend not missing this place when visiting Hilton Head Island.

Beautiful location on the water in Sea Pines, an exclusive area of Hilton Head Island. Although she was new, our server was very kind and helpful. The food was good but not great, but we really enjoyed the drinks.

Out door area was very nice. Seated quickly. All of our food was stellar. The new-to-the-menu shrimp was fried with an amazing sauce. Some if the best we’ve eaten. The view was magnificent. Parrots around the corner are a plus. Our waitress was amazing.

I’m in love! This place was wonderful. The food was amazing and you get a hearty portion with all the dishes. It was also fresh tasting and my shrimp was cooked to perfection. Lastly the staff was AMAZING. It’s worth the money of a $9 parking pass. I will be back!

If you don’t visit here while on Hilton Head Island, you’re making a mistake. A wide variety of dinner/lunch options for everyone in the family. The best hushpuppies you’ll ever enjoy on this planet. Great dining atmosphere with outside seating as well as some beautiful views.

Visited in early May the weather was perfect, the server was very nice and the food was great and reasonably priced. It was a perfect relaxing lunch. Bwe finished and the server did not rush us, let us longer for a bit and relax. Beautiful setting next to a little marina and the water.

Really cute spot on the pier. A little pricy but for the location I get it. Had live music which was nice, food was great. Classic seafood spot. They even have bug spray which smelled shockingly good. Would definitely come back!

Salty Dog Cafe is a staple of Hilton Head Island (as evidenced by the countless souvenirs found everywhere with this restaurant’s logo) and the food and scenery definitely live up to the hype. We had the shrimp toast appetizer, the fish and chips, and the shrimp and grits. All were great and came recommended by the very friendly and helpful waitress. I also had one of their 4 locally made craft beers – the Pale Ale – which was delicious. I was on the fence between that and the Pilsner and the waitress brought out a tasting of both to help me decide 🙂
