Chef Julio never lets us down. The scallops were delicious as were the shrimp and crab ravioli. Thanks for another wonderful dinner.

Six of us ate here. 3 of us had the eggplant parm which was delish. One had the special of seafood and pasta special, the others had chicken dishes. All of which were very good. Its byob with a $5 corkage charge.

Servings are generous and tasty. If you want wine, BYOB. When it's very busy, the sound level can be challenging for a conversation.

The food was great, although we had looked at the menu online which wasn’t updated so what we wanted wasn’t there. We were informed by phone call a few hours before the reservation that there was an entertainment charge of $3 per person that was going to be added. We weren’t going to get a reservation elsewhere that late nor was this charge mentioned online anywhere prior.

Thank you for the review. We are glad you enjoyed your dinner with us. That is correct, we always confirm reservations because every once in a while, someone will make a reservation on Open Table without reading the description or the confirmation email. It is clearly listed that we are a BYOB restaurant, and we charge a $3 cover for live entertainment on Friday and Saturday. We find this fair considering the pizza joint up the street charges $5 and the island changes $10.

Date night for me and my wife. We knew it was BYOB and while we were initially surprised, we ended up really liking the concept since we could take a top notch wine at a fraction of the retail price, let alone what restaurants charge for same wine (no less than 2x retail!!). We made a reservation and they followed up indicating a the fee for live music and the BYOB policy, so no less than four means of communicating the BYOB policy and what we could expect, so excellent communication! Food was very good. While the restaurant was full and it was also clear they were understaffed, we were never ignored and one of the owners stepped in, handled our various orders since we couldn’t quite decide what we wanted, and we had very nice discussions with staff, owners, and thoroughly enjoyed our meal and experience! Overall, great experience. Very good food. Busy but still quite good service and we never waited an unreasonable amount of time for anything. The people that have complained, in our opinion, either failed to actually read what is VERY WELL communicated, or simply cannot be pleased under any reasonable scenario. We will return as 20+ year LOCALS. If you are a tourist and wish to complain without very real justification, odds are no one in this area wishes you to return.

Thank you for such a wonderful review! We are glad you enjoyed your special evening out. People love the BYOB. It certainly makes it affordable to go out and splurge on the food while enjoying what you like to drink! We appreciate the time you took to leave us a review and we hope to see you again soon!

Don’t let the unassuming entrance fool you. Behind the door is a delightful little restaurant. The food was fantastic! A party of three that ordered 3 different entrees and all were delicious. Staff was very friendly but seemed a little overwhelmed as they were a team of only 2. We would definitely return to this hidden gem.

We enjoyed our dining experience. Our waiter was excellent, but we couldn’t help noticing how short staffed they seemed to be , he was so busy !

Excellent meal. Excellent Italian food while visiting Hilton Head. The stacked eggplant and meatballs were perfect. Linguini n Clams in white sauce was fresh n delicious. Very friendly staff which made dining experience nice. BYOB was great as we brought our favorite NAPA red .

I appreciated the call to confirm reservation and remind me that the restaurant is BYO. My friends brought wine and I brought some mini bottles. I was disappointed that they had such a small mixers selection (it wouldn't take much to stock a few juices and the server was quick to tell us that they only have lemon, no lime). I had the pear and Gorgonzola salad which was very nice but the pear was not cored well and some of the core was part of the pear slices. I was with friends and we could have a great time at Taco Bell, just being together. This was very nice but nothing spectacular.
