David, our waiter was very good and we love eating while overlooking the water but on this trip the food did not match its price. The entree portions were very small. The overpriced oysters on the half shell were minute and poorly shucked. They were still attached to shell and in disconnecting them you had virtually nothing edible left. Plus ketchup and horseradish you mix yourself is like fast food. Desserts and coffee overpriced as well. Our second trip there and probably our last. Much better food on the island.

I always love the view at Ela's but, their food is fine just not fantastic for the price. I had the red fish special which was not so special. Not bad, just not special. I brought a houseguest from the frozen north so I wanted the view. With entrees over $30 I just think the food should be as great as the view. I should also mention that one person in our party had the mussels appetizer which they said was fabulous.

We unfortunately had a server that seems to not care about our needs or anything for that matter. The food was ok - would not recommend to anyone.

So hospitable! Hostess and waiter were very accommodating, the food was well prepared “low country” dishes, and sitting outside with a nice glass of wine was sublime. Great wine list.

Flounder was outstanding. Great water views of the marina with outside dining. Good service!

We enjoyed our dinner for my husband’s birthday. Everyone in our group raved about their food from our appetizers to our dessert everything was delicious. Our server and the rest of the staff were experts in their business. It has now become a favorite of ours at Hilton Head Island.

1.)We were asked if we were going for a special occasion which it was our anniversary, but when there, no acknowledgement was ever made, so why ask? 2.) I ordered the Flounder which was delicious but watch out for the bones. It comes whole so you have to eat around the bones. I have had Flounder on many occasions and NEVER have I had such a problem, it has always been deboned. My fingers were in my mouth more than my fork. When mentioned to our server she said "everybody loves it that way". Well, not everybody. Don't get me ... read more

We had a corner patio overlooking the harbor on a beautiful but breezy evening. They turned on the heat lamps for us and it was really cozy. Dinner was slow, we didn't mnd the slow pace but our waiter was not attentive or apologetic. We had to ask for bread since there was a long wait. The food was very good. Filet, shrimp, scallops, asparagus, lobster risotto and salad were great. Next time we will ask for a different waiter. The location and good food will bring us back for sure.
