Restaurants near Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island

Food and service were excellent...... But noisy and we were in the corner

This was our third visit to Frankie Bones. It's a busy restaurant and a reservation is recommended. The menu is extensive with lots of choice.

We were seated promptly at a very small table for two. I could not push back my chair because there was a partial wall behind me….it was too confining. The restaurant is quite dim and the music playing was not unpleasant but odd. Considering this is a somewhat upscale restaurant I wasn’t expecting to be listening to Rick James and other disco favorites at a considerable volume. Our server was very nice and took care of us very well during our visit. The food was quite good and presented well. I had the blackened dorado and my husband had the shrimp and grits. We really enjoyed the arancini appetizer but there was only 3 so I let the husband have seconds. For dessert I had the crème brûlée and it was tasty but no actual evidence of a vanilla bean could be found in it. The carmelized sugar on top was done to perfection. Husband had the chocolate mousse with shortbread cookies for dipping.We loved the mousse and the cookies were divine. This review would have been 5 stars except for the seating, the music and the lighting. I think some easy tweaks are in order!

Great experience. Went for a friend’s birthday and a great sunset. Nothing disappointed. The food was wonderful and our server Paulina went out of her way to make it a memorable evening.

We had a great early bird special meal along with appetizer and dessert. Wife had filet and crab cake while I had short rib. Both were outstanding. Lobster & Crab wontons to start. Excellent. Wedge was great for me and tomato bisque for her. Capped it off with an incredible Apple crisp. Sat on patio with dog under heaters. Only ones out there. Chad was our waiter he was spectacular. Treated us so well. Took great care of him. He’s an incredible asset. Can’t wait to come back when we are back in town next year. Our first time and we loved it.
