About this restaurant

Charming
Good for special occasions
Great for outdoor dining

Ribaut Social Club is a restaurant and social space for Beaufort locals and visitors to mingle over cocktails and impeccable regional cuisine.
Our aim is to capture the incorrigible spirit and convivial atmosphere of the original Ribaut Club, established at the Anchorage in 1891. In its heyday, the Club hosted performances, grand parties, dances and even gambling—a raucous getaway from buttoned-up social strictures of the time. Today, guests can cocktails and dinner with unrivaled water views or a sophisticated brunch surrounded by 300 years of Beaufort history.

Our favorite upscale restaurant in Beaufort. Dinner takes a little longer than what you are used to too but we love that. We can take time to enjoy. Jay took care of us and he is made sure we had everything we needed. He is definitely an asset to your business.

Great atmosphere. Good food (my steak was slightly overcooked). Good service (wait staff attire could be improved) Please offer a dessert other than the tiresome crème brûlée :)

This was our second anniversary dinner here, and we have decided this will be our special anniversary dinner every year. Everything from start to finish was above and beyond.

The overall experience was outstanding. The only thing that could have been better was to acknowledge my wife's birthday with at least a complimentary dessert. I added this to our reservation, so the restaurant clearly knew. I have never been to a premium restaurant and this did not happen. Big miss. We still will go back.

Romantic front porch dining, definitely worth doing. Enjoyable. Food really good for us. Service crawlingly slow. The staff were fantastic, there just were not enough of them. It seemed to be the kitchen, not the wait staff dragging it down though.
