    Party of 4 taste tested as much as we could and everything was phenomenal. Pretty sure the owner was walking around with an apron and a dish towel in his pocket, making sure his business stays on point. That’s why the pace was humming. Food was amazing, we will be back!

    We had a nice dinner at Georgia Sea Grill to celebrate our anniversary. While staying at Sea Island, we were looking for a locally owned restaurant, specializing in sea food. We found the right place. Service was excellent and prices were reasonable. My husband had one issue with his cocktail, but they gladly remade it. We both had the fresh fish, which is offered in 3 different preparation methods, with different sides. Because we were celebrating, we also had desserts. Both were yummy. Previous reviewers recommended reservations. We had to change our original reservations because of our golf tee time & were lucky to get one, on a Thursday, before 8 pm.

    Wonderful waitress and delicious food. The only disappointment was the Cesar Salad which was bland. I had the loin of pork and my wife had the local red fish, both were delicious.

    Excellent choices. My favorite is the crab soup. Spices on everything are subtle with a tiny kick. Grouper was very good as well as the veggie choices it was paired with. And of course, loved the piano man

    During a low-season dinner, we were one of 3 tables occupied. Service was friendly and (understandably) quick, and the food was excellent! The smoked fish spread was terrific as an app, and the seafood entrees (Georgia shrimp and Fish and Chips) were very good too!
