About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for happy hour
  • Great for outdoor dining
LagerHead is not your typical tavern; Chef Michael Toscano, a James Beard “Rising Star Chef” Semi-Finalist, inspires the dining experience at LagerHead Tavern. The name and décor for LagerHead were inspired by the indigenous Loggerhead Sea Turtle and the natural beauty of Hilton Head Island. Developed by Chef Toscano, the menu showcases southern comfort food with a twist, using fresh, regional ingredients and features signature items such as our House-Smoked Chicken Wings and the Low Country Reuben featuring in house pulled pork and smoked ham. The Grilled Salmon Salad is completely unique in that we use fresh grilled salmon that we prepare every morning. Fresh Grilled Oysters are also a Lagerhead Staple, shucked fresh per order and prepared using garlic butter and breadcrumbs for an oyster packed full of low country flavor!!

    Another wonderful dining experience. We were four ladies celebrity two birthdays. Three of us had the early dining baby back rib plate, and one had the shoulder steak. We were all very, very happy with our choices. Michele, our server, is a sweetheart. She brought out dessert plates for us for the cake when we were done, since we were allowed to bring our own cake in. She couldn’t have been more helpful. Absolutely my favorite restaurant on the island. And we will certainly be back many more times.

    We enjoyed the calm quiet atmosphere. Although it was perfect for our family to enjoy discussion and laughing. The waiter was friendly and engaging and food was delicious! Definitely recommend!

    Everyone in the neighborhood knows, but a hidden gem to most. Hang out after your round for sure. The service is the best on the island. Ricky runs his butt off, Sean hustles, they all really work to make your meal awesome. From the steak salad and fish dishes being great to what my kids think is the best hot dog and fries you can get, it's awesome.

    My wife and I met another couple here for lunch. This restaurant also doubles for golfers on the Oyster Reef course in Hilton Head Plantation. Service was a bit slow but we were in no hurry, so this wasn't an issue for us. I ordered the blackened shrimp tacos (you get two and no sides) and my wife had the Shaved Prime Rib Sandwich. My tacos were very tasty and loaded with shrimp and fixings. I like spicy food and the tacos had the right amount of kick with the sauce and seasonings. I would get these again. The PR sandwich wasn't a big hit, however. It comes on a brioche bun, not a traditional hoagie type roll. The Au jus dipping sauce was very watery and heavy in vinegar. We both had a draft beer. Her Miller Lite was cold, my Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, while good, was slightly colder than room temperature. Our friends had the same shrimp tacos and a 'Shroom Burger and were very pleased with their dishes. I give this an overall 4-star rating on most everything. It is a comfortable restaurant, has a lively bar, and offers patio seating.

    Wait staff is great. Meal was good. Fish was breaded lightly but was a little greasy. Not our first visit so we will be back.

    Lagerhead Tavern is the weekly after golf dining place for my neighborhood golf group. The food, wait staff, management, bartender and ambience are all fantastic. Love this neighborhood gem!
